49  * There are 3 basic jump table patterns:
50  *
51  * 1. jmpq *[rodata addr](,%reg,8)
52  *
53  *    This is the most common case by far.  It jumps to an address in a simple
54  *    jump table which is stored in .rodata.
55  *
56  * 2. jmpq *[rodata addr](%rip)
57  *
58  *    This is caused by a rare GCC quirk, currently only seen in three driver
59  *    functions in the kernel, only with certain obscure non-distro configs.
60  *
61  *    As part of an optimization, GCC makes a copy of an existing switch jump
62  *    table, modifies it, and then hard-codes the jump (albeit with an indirect
63  *    jump) to use a single entry in the table.  The rest of the jump table and
64  *    some of its jump targets remain as dead code.
65  *
66  *    In such a case we can just crudely ignore all unreachable instruction
67  *    warnings for the entire object file.  Ideally we would just ignore them
68  *    for the function, but that would require redesigning the code quite a
69  *    bit.  And honestly that's just not worth doing: unreachable instruction
70  *    warnings are of questionable value anyway, and this is such a rare issue.
71  *
72  * 3. mov [rodata addr],%reg1
73  *    ... some instructions ...
74  *    jmpq *(%reg1,%reg2,8)
75  *
76  *    This is a fairly uncommon pattern which is new for GCC 6.  As of this
77  *    writing, there are 11 occurrences of it in the allmodconfig kernel.
78  *
79  *    As of GCC 7 there are quite a few more of these and the 'in between' code
80  *    is significant. Esp. with KASAN enabled some of the code between the mov
81  *    and jmpq uses .rodata itself, which can confuse things.
82  *
83  *    TODO: Once we have DWARF CFI and smarter instruction decoding logic,
84  *    ensure the same register is used in the mov and jump instructions.
85  *
86  *    NOTE: RETPOLINE made it harder still to decode dynamic jumps.
