From 5d8591bc0fbaeb6deda6ee478577e9c4d9b10c2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rabin Vincent Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2015 15:09:57 +1030 Subject: [PATCH] module: set ksymtab/kcrctab* section addresses to 0x0 These __ksymtab*/__kcrctab* sections currently have non-zero addresses. Non-zero section addresses in a relocatable ELF confuse GDB and it ends up not relocating all symbols when add-symbol-file is used on modules which have exports. The kernel's module loader does not care about these addresses, so let's just set them to zero.
