When compiling with DEBUG=1 on Fedora 32 I'm getting crash for 'perf
test signal':
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

It's caused by the symbol __test_function being in the ".bss" section:
$ readelf -a ./perf | less
[Nr] Name Type Address Offset
Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align
...
[28] .bss NOBITS 0000000000c356a0 008346a0
00000000000511f8 0000000000000000 WA 0 0 32
$ nm perf | grep __test_function
0000000000c68548 B __test_function
I guess most of the time we're just lucky the inline asm ended up in the
".text" section, so making it specific explicit with push and pop
section clauses.
$ readelf -a ./perf | less
[Nr] Name Type Address Offset
Size EntSize Flags Link Info Align
...
[13] .text PROGBITS 0000000000431240 00031240
0000000000306faa 0000000000000000 AX 0 0 16
$ nm perf | grep __test_function
00000000004d62c8 T __test_function
Committer testing:
$ readelf -wi ~/bin/perf | grep producer -m1
