We currently use module_kallsyms_on_each_symbol that iterates all
modules/symbols and we try to lookup each such address in user
provided symbols/addresses to get list of used modules.
This fix instead only iterates provided kprobe addresses and calls
__module_address on each to get list of used modules. This turned
out to be simpler and also bit faster.
On my setup with workload (executed 10 times):
# test_progs -t kprobe_multi_bench_attach/modules

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.
