Objtool doesn't use DWARF at all, and the DWARF sections' data take up a lot of memory. Skip reading them. Note this only skips the DWARF base sections, not the rela sections. The relas are needed because their symbol references may need to be reindexed if any local symbols get added by elf_create_symbol(). Also note the DWARF data will eventually be read by libelf anyway, when writing the object file. But that's fine, the goal here is to reduce *peak* memory usage, and the previous patch (which freed insn memory) gave some breathing room. So the allocation gets shifted to a later time, resulting in lower peak memory usage. With allyesconfig + CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO: - Before: peak heap memory consumption: 29.93G - After: peak heap memory consumption: 25.47G Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/52a9698835861dd35f2ec35c49f96d0bb39fb177.1685464332.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
