This is an 2966 indirect way for us to have B call resolve_symbol_wait() upon module 2967 load. This will eventually call find_symbol() which will eventually 2968 try to find the symbols used with find_exported_symbol_in_section(). 2969 find_exported_symbol_in_section() uses bsearch() so a binary search 2970 for each symbol. Binary search will at worst be O(log(n)) so the 2971 larger TEST_MODULE_KALLSYSMS the worse the search. 2972 2973 2) The selftests should load C first, before B. Upon B's load towards 2974 the end right before we call module B's init routine we get 2975 complete_formation() called on the module. That will first check 2976 for duplicate symbols with the call to verify_exported_symbols(). 2977 That is when we'll force iteration on module C's insane symbol list. 2978 Since it has 10 * KALLSYMS_NUMSYMS it means we can first test 2979 just loading B without C. The amount of time it takes to load C Vs 2980 B can give us an idea of the impact growth of the symbol space and 2981 give us projection. Module A only uses one symbol from B so to allow 2982 this scaling in module C to be proportional, if it used more symbols 2983 then the first test would be doing more and increasing just the 2984 search space would be slightly different. The last module, module D 2985 will just increase the search space by twice the number of symbols in 2986 C so to allow for full projects. 2987 2988 tools/testing/selftests/module/find_symbol.sh 2989 2990 The current defaults will incur a build delay of about 7 minutes 2991 on an x86_64 with only 8 cores.
