Subject: [PATCH 10/15] arm: Provide _sdata and __bss_stop in the vmlinux.lds.S file
Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2008 18:27:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081210182749.30323.82591.stgit@pc1117.cambridge.arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20081210182652.30323.4594.stgit@pc1117.cambridge.arm.com>
_sdata and __bss_stop are common symbols defined by many architectures
and made available to the kernel via asm-generic/sections.h. Kmemleak
uses these symbols when scanning the data sections.
