Hi, I am wondering why we need _sinittext and _einittext in the kernel? What are their usages in kernel? I understand that the code between _sinittext and _einittext (all belong to .init.text section) are the code running during the initiazliation, and they will be discarded later. Is that correct? If so, during run-time, we dont have the code between _sinittext and _einittext, right? (that means these area will be used for other purpose?) Many thanks.
