Subject: "N" symbols and System.map
Date: Fri, 01 May 2009 15:24:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49FB7692.2000508@linux.intel.com> (raw)
Hi all,
right now, we filter out symbols that nm tag N, meaning "debugging
symbols", from System.map. However, at least on x86, the
linker-generated symbol _end is tagged N, and in fact is the only N in
the entire image.
Are there other architectures which would suffer if N were included in
System.map, or would that be a reasonable thing to do?
