When doing cross platform development on a machine sometimes it might be
useful to invoke bloat-o-meter for files which haven't been build with the
native toolchain. In cases when the host nm doesn't support the target
one then a toolchain-specific nm could be used. Add this ability by
adding the -p allowing invocations as:
./scripts/bloat-o-meter -p riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu- file1.o file2.o

This will facilitate further extension to the arguments the script takes.
As an added benefit it also produces saner usage output, where mutual
exclusivity of the c|d|t parameters is clearly visible:
./scripts/bloat-o-meter -h
usage: bloat-o-meter [-h] [-c | -d | -t] file1 file2
Simple script used to compare the symbol sizes of 2 object files
positional arguments:
file1 First file to compare
file2 Second file to compare
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-c categorize output based on symbol type
-d Show delta of Data Section
-t Show delta of text Section

Seeing it as a false positive increase at the top is just noise:

Function old new delta
vermagic 49 69 +20
Since it really doesn't "grow", it makes sense to filter it out.

Library archives (.a) usually contain multiple object files so their
output of nm --size-sort contains lines like:

extent-map-tests.o:

bloat-o-meter currently doesn't handle them which results in errors when
calling .split() on them. Fix this by simply ignoring them. This enables
diffing subsystems which generate built-in.a files.

Tidy the naming convention for compat syscall subs. Hints which describe
the purpose of the stub go in front and receive a double underscore to
denote that they are generated on-the-fly by the COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx()
macro.
For the generic case, this means:
t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
__do_compat_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
T __se_compat_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long,
# casts them to unsigned long and then to
# the declared type)
T compat_sys_waitid # alias to __se_compat_sys_waitid()
# (taking parameters as declared), to
# be included in syscall table
For x86, the naming is as follows:
t kernel_waitid # common C function (see kernel/exit.c)
__do_compat_sys_waitid # inlined helper doing the actual work
# (takes original parameters as declared)
t __se_compat_sys_waitid # sign-extending C function calling inlined
# helper (takes parameters of type long,
# casts them to unsigned long and then to
# the declared type)
T __ia32_compat_sys_waitid # IA32_EMULATION 32-bit-ptregs -> C stub,
# calls __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be
# included in syscall table
T __x32_compat_sys_waitid # x32 64-bit-ptregs -> C stub, calls
# __se_compat_sys_waitid(); to be included
# in syscall table
If only one of IA32_EMULATION and x32 is enabled, __se_compat_sys_waitid()
may be inlined into the stub __{ia32,x32}_compat_sys_waitid().

bloat-o-meter assumes that a '.' anywhere in a symbol's name means that it
is static and prepends 'static.' to the first part of the symbol name,
discarding the portion of the name that follows the '.'. However, the
names of function entry points begin with '.' in the ppc64 ABI. This
causes all function text size changes to be accounted to a single 'static.'
entry in the output when comparing ppc64 kernels.
Change getsizes() to ignore the first character of the symbol name when
searching for '.'.
