To speed up the lookup of a symbol in the kernel, we'd better compress the searched symbol first and then make a quick comparison based on the compressed length and content. But the tokens in kallsyms_token_table[] have been expanded, a more complex process is required to complete the compression of a symbol. So generate kallsyms_best_token_table[] helps us to compress a symbol in the kernel using a process similar to compress_symbol(). The implementation of kallsyms_compress_symbol_name() is almost the same as that of compress_symbols() in scripts/kallsyms.c. Some minor changes have been made to reduce memory usage and improve compression performance. 1. Some entries in best_table[] are single characters, and most of them are clustered together. such as a-z, A-Z, 0-9. These individual characters are not used in the process of compressing a symbol. Let kallsyms_best_token_table[i][0] = 0x00, [i][0] = number of consecutive single characters (for exampe, a-z is 26). When [i][0] = 0x00 is encountered, we can skip to the next token with two elements. 2. Now ARRAY_SIZE(kallsyms_best_token_table) is not fixed, we store the content of best_table[] to kallsyms_best_token_table[] in reverse order. That is, the higher the frequency, the lower the index. The modifier '__maybe_unused' of kallsyms_compress_symbol_name() is temporary and will be removed in the next patch.
