When code is compiled with:
-fpatchable-function-entry=${PADDING_BYTES},${PADDING_BYTES}
functions will have PADDING_BYTES of NOP in front of them. Unwinders
and other things that symbolize code locations will typically
attribute these bytes to the preceding function.
Given that these bytes nominally belong to the following symbol this
mis-attribution is confusing.
Inspired by the fact that CFI_CLANG emits __cfi_##name symbols to
claim these bytes, use objtool to emit __pfx_##name symbols to do
the same when CFI_CLANG is not used.
This then shows the callthunk for symbol 'name' as:
__pfx_##name+0x6/0x10

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
