Subject: [PATCH] fix broken kallsyms on non-x86 archs
Date: Sun, 12 Jan 2003 13:40:22 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200301121840.h0CIeMd11612@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 332 bytes --]

kallsyms is broken in parisc on 2.5.56 again because of assembler syntax 
subtleties.  This is the offending line:

printf("\t.byte 0x%02x ; .asciz\t\"%s\"\n"

Note the `;' separating the two statements.  On some platforms `;' is a 
comment in assembly code, and thus the following .asciz is ignored.  The fix 
is attached.

James
