[for-linus][PATCH 5/5] recordmcount: Correct st_shndx handling

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Jun 09 2021 - 20:37:48 EST


From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

One should only use st_shndx when >SHN_UNDEF and <SHN_LORESERVE. When
SHN_XINDEX, then use .symtab_shndx. Otherwise use 0.

This handles the case: st_shndx >= SHN_LORESERVE && st_shndx != SHN_XINDEX.
