From f34ea0291029781810ca4c213713dc6b4a686322 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masahiro Yamada Date: Sun, 24 Nov 2019 01:04:32 +0900 Subject: scripts/kallsyms: set relative_base more effectively Currently, record_relative_base() iterates over the entire table to find the minimum address, but it is not efficient because we sort the table anyway. After sort_symbol(), the table is sorted by address. (kallsyms parses the 'nm -n' output, so the data is already sorted by address, but this commit does not rely on it.) Move record_relative_base() after sort_symbols(), and take the first non-absolute symbol value.
