From: Rong Tao rongtao@cestc.cn
Static ksyms often have problems because the number of symbols exceeds the MAX_SYMS limit. Like changing the MAX_SYMS from 300000 to 400000 in commit e76a014334a6("selftests/bpf: Bump and validate MAX_SYMS") solves the problem somewhat, but it's not the perfect way.
This commit uses dynamic memory allocation, which completely solves the problem caused by the limitation of the number of kallsyms.

Thank you for doing this! I do remember complaining about it on the last "let's bump the limit" patch :-D

Do we really need to free the symbols? IOW, is it enough to load them once and keep them around until test_progs dies?
If we do, I wonder what would happen when test_progs runs in parallel mode? Feels like if we're adding this alloc/free, then load_symbols should return some object which free_kallsyms should free? And ksym_get_addr would also work on that object, not on the global state..

Should we do the usual len/capacity scheme here to amortize the cost of realloc (like doubling capacity when we reach it)? Calling realloc on every symbol doesn't seem right.
Thanks for your advise, you are right, i just submit v2 [0].
I just found that, because of the modified patch, your email address was not obtained through scripts/get_maintainer.pl, so the v2 [0] email was not sent to you, sorry.
Rong Tao, Good day.

No worries, as long as it reaches the list I'll get to it :-)
