198430f7 - scripts/bloat-o-meter: count weak symbol sizes

Wed, 16 Aug 2023 15:33:34 +0000

scripts/bloat-o-meter: count weak symbol sizesCurrently, bloat-o-meter does not take into account weak symbols, andthus ignores any size changes in code or data marked __weak.Fix this by handling weak code ("w"/"W") and data ("v"/"V").Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/a1e7abd2571c3bbfe75345d6ee98b276d2d5c39d.1692200010.git.geert+renesas@glider.beSigned-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven Cc: Arnd Bergmann Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton List of files: /linux-6.15/scripts/bloat-o-meter

8b5db667 - scripts/bloat-o-meter: add -p argument

Fri, 01 Jul 2022 11:35:13 +0000

scripts/bloat-o-meter: add -p argumentWhen doing cross platform development on a machine sometimes it might beuseful to invoke bloat-o-meter for files which haven't been build with thenative toolchain. In cases when the host nm doesn't support the targetone then a toolchain-specific nm could be used. Add this ability byadding the -p allowing invocations as:./scripts/bloat-o-meter -p riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu- file1.o file2.oLink: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220701113513.1938008-2-nborisov@suse.comSigned-off-by: Nikolay Borisov Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton List of files: /linux-6.15/scripts/bloat-o-meter

Fri, 01 Jul 2022 11:35:12 +0000

scripts/bloat-o-meter: switch argument parsing to using argparseThis will facilitate further extension to the arguments the script takes. As an added benefit it also produces saner usage output, where mutualexclusivity of the c|d|t parameters is clearly visible:./scripts/bloat-o-meter -husage: bloat-o-meter [-h] [-c | -d | -t] file1 file2Simple script used to compare the symbol sizes of 2 object filespositional arguments: file1 First file to compare file2 Second file to compareoptional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -c categorize output based on symbol type -d Show delta of Data Section -t Show delta of text SectionLink: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220701113513.1938008-1-nborisov@suse.comSigned-off-by: Nikolay Borisov Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton List of files: /linux-6.15/scripts/bloat-o-meter

scripts/bloat-o-meter: Support comparing library archivesLibrary archives (.a) usually contain multiple object files so theiroutput of nm --size-sort contains lines like:00000000000003a8 t run_testextent-map-tests.o:bloat-o-meter currently doesn't handle them which results in errors whencalling .split() on them.
