Currently, this tool outputs symbol data in the following order. (1) kallsyms_addressed / kallsyms_offsets (2) kallsyms_relative_base (3) kallsyms_num_syms (4) kallsyms_names (5) kallsyms_markers (6) kallsyms_seq_of_names (7) kallsyms_token_table (8) kallsyms_token_index This commit changes the order as follows: (1) kallsyms_num_syms (2) kallsyms_names (3) kallsyms_markers (4) kallsyms_token_table (5) kallsyms_token_index (6) kallsyms_addressed / kallsyms_offsets (7) kallsyms_relative_base (8) kallsyms_seq_of_names The motivation is to decrease the number of function calls to expand_symbol() and cleanup_symbol_name(). The compressed names are only required for writing 'kallsyms_names'. If you do this first, we can restore the original symbol names. You do not need to repeat the same operation over again. The actual refactoring will happen in the next commit. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
