Subject: [PATCH v2 3/4] Ksplice: Export symbols needed for Ksplice
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2009 19:21:54 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1235521315-3424-4-git-send-email-tabbott@mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1235521315-3424-3-git-send-email-tabbott@mit.edu>
Ksplice uses __module_address and __module_text_address to determine
which module contains various addresses.
Ksplice uses __kernel_text_address to limit its check for trampolines
(jump instructions inserted by Ksplice) to only text addresses.
Ksplice uses task_curr in order to confirm that no other tasks are
executing during Ksplice's kernel stack check.
Ksplice uses find_bug and search_exception_tables as part of its
conservative check that the user provided the correct source code for
the running kernel.
