util/cbfstool/rmodule: Omit undefined extern symbols from reloc table
When using `DECLARE_OPTIONAL_REGION`, it is assumed that REGION_SIZE(name) == 0 if the region was not defined in the memlayout. When using non-rmodule stages (i.e., bootblock, romstage, etc), this assumption holds true, but breaks down in rmodule (i.e., ramstage) stages. The rmodule tool is not currently omitting undefined externals from the relocation table. e.g., extern u8 _##name##_size[]; This means that when the rmodule loader runs, it will rewrite the symbol from 0 (which is the default the linker assumed) to 0 + offset. This is wrong since the symbol doesn't actually exist. Instead we need to omit the relocation so it continues to keep the default value of 0. BUG=b:179699789 TEST=Print out REGION_SIZE(cbfs_cache) in ramstage and verify it is set to 0. I also see the following printed by the rmodtool now: DEBUG: Omitting relocation for undefined extern: _watchdog_tombstone_size DEBUG: Omitting relocation for undefined extern: _watchdog_tombstone DEBUG: Omitting relocation for undefined extern: _watchdog_tombstone DEBUG: Omitting relocation for absolute symbol: _stack_size DEBUG: Omitting relocation for absolute symbol: _program_size DEBUG: Omitting relocation for absolute symbol: _cbmem_init_hooks_size DEBUG: Omitting relocation for absolute symbol: _payload_preload_cache_size DEBUG: Omitting relocation for absolute symbol: _payload_preload_cache DEBUG: Omitting relocation for absolute symbol: _payload_preload_cache_size DEBUG: Omitting relocation for absolute symbol: _payload_preload_cache DEBUG: Omitting relocation for undefined extern: _cbfs_cache DEBUG: Omitting relocation for undefined extern: _cbfs_cache_size As you can see the _watchdog_tombstone will also be fixed by this CL.
