| Hi..
|
| After reading Documentation on System.map, i understood that , whenever
| an oops happens the following addresses will be converted to its
| function name by klogd daemon using System.map.
|
| Now when we have /proc/kallsyms which stores the symbol table in the
| kernel image itself.Then what is the need of System.map file??Is any
| process or daemon still using it??

oldish, but quite useful: http://www.dirac.org/linux/system.map/
