2# Based on the vmlinux file create the System.map file
3# System.map is used by module-init tools and some debugging
943ffb58 4# tools to retrieve the actual addresses of symbols in the kernel.

16# The second row specify the type of the symbol:

20# D = Initialised data

22# I = Indirect reference to another symbol
23# N = Debugging symbol
24# R = Read only
25# S = Uninitialised data for small objects
26# T = Text code symbol
27# U = Undefined symbol
28# V = Weak symbol
29# W = Weak symbol
30# Corresponding small letters are local symbols

32# For System.map filter away:
33# a - local absolute symbols
34# U - undefined global symbols

36# w - local weak symbols

38# readprofile starts reading symbols when _stext is found, and
39# continue until it finds a symbol which is not either of 'T', 't',

41# so we just ignore them to let readprofile continue to work.
