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.

Since this patch is about improving the load_kallsyms_refresh(), I mentioned in the v3
that it would also be good to have the counterpart to release the allocated memory once
the test concluded or upon error given it's dynamically allocated.

Thanks,

Thanks, Daniel

I just add ksyms__free() function, it is called when ksyms__add_symbol() fails.

Good Day,
