lisa/_assets/kmodules/sched_tp/Makefile: Improve pahole output
Use --show_only_data_members to avoid having useless anonymous type declaration in the middle of e.g. a struct. Consider the following type: struct foo { struct { int a; } bar; }; GCC emits DWARF info looking this way: DW_TAG_structure_type DW_AT_name "foo" DW_TAG_member DW_AT_name "bar" DW_AT_type "struct " DW_AT_data_member_location <0x42 - curr_loc> NULL 0x42: DW_TAG_structure_type DW_TAG_member DW_AT_name "a" DW_AT_type "int " DW_AT_data_member_location ... NULL Clang emits: DW_TAG_structure_type DW_AT_name "foo" DW_TAG_member DW_AT_name "bar" DW_AT_type "struct " DW_AT_data_member_location 0x0 DW_TAG_structure_type DW_TAG_member DW_AT_name "a" DW_AT_type "int " DW_AT_data_member_location ... NULL NULL When pahole sees clang's output, it will emit something like that: struct foo { struct { int a; }; <------useless struct { int a; } bar; }; But with --show_only_data_members, it will ignore any child of DW_TAG_structure_type that is not a DW_TAG_member and will print the expected code.
