Because it is uncertain how long that hook function will execute, they call cond_resched() to avoid consuming CPU resources for a long time. However, irqs need to be disabled during the performance test to ensure the accuracy of test data. Because the performance test hook is very clear, very simple function, let's do not call cond_resched() when CONFIG_KALLSYMS_SELFTEST=y.
I don't think it is appropriate to change the behaviour of a core function based on whether a compile time option related to tests is selected or not, because you will change the behaviour for all users, not only for the tests. If the problem is that IRQs are disabled, maybe the solution is if (!irqs_disabled()) cond_resched(); Or try to disable the call to cond_resched() in a way or another during the run of selftests.
