Currently, to search for a symbol, we need to expand the symbols in 'kallsyms_names' one by one, and then use the expanded string for comparison. This process can be optimized. And now scripts/kallsyms no longer compresses the symbol types, each symbol type always occupies one byte. So we can first compress the searched symbol and then make a quick comparison based on the compressed length and content. In this way, for entries with mismatched lengths, there is no need to expand and compare strings. And for those matching lengths, there's no need to expand the symbol. This saves a lot of time. According to my test results, the average performance of kallsyms_lookup_name() can be improved by 20 to 30 times. The pseudo code of the test case is as follows: static int stat_find_name(...) { start = sched_clock(); (void)kallsyms_lookup_name(name); end = sched_clock(); //Update min, max, cnt, sum } /* * Traverse all symbols in sequence and collect statistics on the time * taken by kallsyms_lookup_name() to lookup each symbol. */ kallsyms_on_each_symbol(stat_find_name, NULL); The test results are as follows (twice): After : min=5250, max= 726560, avg= 302132 After : min=5320, max= 726850, avg= 301978 Before: min=170, max=15949190, avg=7553906 Before: min=160, max=15877280, avg=7517784 The average time consumed is only 4.01% and the maximum time consumed is only 4.57% of the time consumed before optimization.
