From db0b2991ae1aac5ca985ec6fd8ff9bd9b2126c9b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rong Xu Date: Sat, 2 Nov 2024 10:51:11 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vmlinux.lds.h: Add markers for text_unlikely and text_hot sections Add markers like __hot_text_start, __hot_text_end, __unlikely_text_start, and __unlikely_text_end which will be included in System.map. These markers indicate how the compiler groups functions, providing valuable information to developers about the layout and optimization of the code.
