      scripts/kallsyms.c: fix potential segfault · e0a04b11
      Xiaochen Wang authored
      
      Description:
      This bug hardly appears during real kernel compiling,
       because the vmlinux symbols table is huge.
      
      But we can still catch it under strict condition , as follows.
         $ echo "c101b97b T do_fork" | ./scripts/kallsyms --all-symbols
         #include <asm/types.h>
         ......
         ......
         .globl kallsyms_token_table
                 ALGN
         kallsyms_token_table:
         Segmentation fault (core dumped)
         $
      
      If symbols table is small, all entries in token_profit[0x10000] may
      decrease to 0 after several calls of compress_symbols() in optimize_result().
      In that case, find_best_token() always return 0 and
      best_table[i] is set to "\0\0" and best_table_len[i] is set to 2.
      
      As a result, expand_symbol(best_table[0]="\0\0", best_table_len[0]=2, buf)
      in write_src() will run in infinite recursion until stack overflows,
      causing segfault.
      
      This patch checks the find_best_token() return value. If all entries in
      token_profit[0x10000] become 0 according to return value, it breaks the loop
      in optimize_result().
      And expand_symbol() works well when best_table_len[i] is 0.

      Replace bashisms with POSIX-compatible shell scripting.
      
      Notably, de-duplicate '/' using a sed command from elsewhere in the same script
      rather than "${name//\/\///}".
