Currently klp_patch contains a pointer to a statically allocated array of struct klp_object and struct klp_objects contains a pointer to a statically allocated array of klp_func. In order to allow for the dynamic allocation of objects and functions, link klp_patch, klp_object, and klp_func together via linked lists. This allows us to more easily allocate new objects and functions, while having the iterator be a simple linked list walk. The static structures are added to the lists early. It allows to add the dynamically allocated objects before klp_init_object() and klp_init_func() calls. Therefore it reduces the further changes to the code. This patch does not change the existing behavior.

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.
