Declaring sys_call_table as a pointer causes the compiler to generate
the wrong lookup code in arch_syscall_addr().
<arch_syscall_addr>:
lis r9,-16384
rlwinm r3,r3,2,0,29
- lwz r11,30640(r9)
- lwzx r3,r11,r3
+ addi r9,r9,30640
+ lwzx r3,r9,r3
blr
The actual sys_call_table symbol, declared in assembler, is an
array. If we lie about that to the compiler we get the wrong code
generated, as above.
This definition seems only to be used by the syscall tracing code in
kernel/trace/trace_syscalls.c. With this patch I can successfully use
the syscall tracepoints:
bash-3815 [002] .... 333.239082: sys_write -> 0x2
bash-3815 [002] .... 333.239087: sys_dup2(oldfd: a, newfd: 1)
bash-3815 [002] .... 333.239088: sys_dup2 -> 0x1
bash-3815 [002] .... 333.239092: sys_fcntl(fd: a, cmd: 1, arg: 0)
bash-3815 [002] .... 333.239093: sys_fcntl -> 0x1
bash-3815 [002] .... 333.239094: sys_close(fd: a)
bash-3815 [002] .... 333.239094: sys_close -> 0x0
