Hi,
The question is not completely related to kernel. But I came across
similar question when debugging in kernel.
I tried dissecting the SSL library using 'nm' command. It is showing the
list of symbols along with some generic addresses (to be used when
relocating).
Also there are some characters 't', 'T', 'U'. I guess these correspond
to properties of symbols - like static, extern etc.
Could someone please point out what exactly each character corresponds to?
I mean looking at the character, we should be able to denote if it's a
static symbol or inline etc. Do we have any such mapping?
00000499 t tls1_PRF
00000019 t tls1_P_hash
00000000 T tls1_alert_code
00000937 T tls1_cert_verify_mac
00000ffa T tls1_change_cipher_state
00000a22 T tls1_enc
000006fc T tls1_final_finish_mac
0000063d T tls1_generate_master_secret
00001734 T tls1_mac
00000d2a T tls1_setup_key_block

Thanks,
