Objtool changes for v6.14:
- Introduce the generic section-based annotation
infrastructure a.k.a. ASM_ANNOTATE/ANNOTATE (Peter Zijlstra)
- Convert various facilities to ASM_ANNOTATE/ANNOTATE: (Peter Zijlstra)
- ANNOTATE_NOENDBR
- ANNOTATE_RETPOLINE_SAFE
- instrumentation_{begin,end}()
- VALIDATE_UNRET_BEGIN
- ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE
- ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL
- {.UN}REACHABLE
- Optimize the annotation-sections parsing code (Peter Zijlstra)
- Centralize annotation definitions in <linux/objtool.h>
- Unify & simplify the barrier_before_unreachable()/unreachable()
definitions (Peter Zijlstra)
- Convert unreachable() calls to BUG() in x86 code, as
unreachable() has unreliable code generation (Peter Zijlstra)
- Remove annotate_reachable() and annotate_unreachable(), as it's
unreliable against compiler optimizations (Peter Zijlstra)
- Fix non-standard ANNOTATE_REACHABLE annotation order (Peter Zijlstra)
- Robustify the annotation code by warning about unknown annotation
types (Peter Zijlstra)
- Allow arch code to discover jump table size, in preparation of
annotated jump table support (Ard Biesheuvel)
