This commit introduces support for an alternate linking method in the LLEXT subsystem, called "SLID" (short for Symbol Link Identifier), enabled by the CONFIG_LLEXT_EXPORT_BUILTINS_BY_SLID Kconfig option. SLID-based linking uses a unique identifier (integer) to identify exported symbols, instead of using the symbol name as done currently. This approach provides several benefits: * linking is faster because the comparison operation to determine whether we found the correct symbol in the export table is now an integer compare, instead of a string compare * binary size is reduced as symbol names can be dropped from the binary * confidentiality is improved as a side-effect, as symbol names are no longer present in the binary Signed-off-by: Mathieu Choplain <mathieu.choplain@st.com> |
