[RFC PATCH 2/5] module: save load_info for livepatch modules

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In livepatch modules, preserve section, symbol, string information from
the load_info struct in the module loader. This information is used to
patch modules that are not loaded in memory yet; specifically it is used
to resolve remaining symbols and write relocations when the target
module loads.
