Ok, another tool which is affected by this is procps:
$ ps alx Warning: /boot/System.map-2.6.9-rc3 not parseable as a System.map Warning: /boot/System.map not parseable as a System.map Warning: /usr/src/linux/System.map has an incorrect kernel version. F UID PID PPID PRI NI VSZ RSS WCHAN STAT TTY TIME COMMAND 4 0 1 0 16 0 1244 508 do_sel S ? 0:01 init [3] ... $ grep -v '\$[adt]' /boot/System.map-2.6.9-rc3 > System.map-2.6.9-rc3 $ PS_SYSTEM_MAP=System.map-2.6.9-rc3 ps alx F UID PID PPID PRI NI VSZ RSS WCHAN STAT TTY TIME COMMAND 4 0 1 0 16 0 1244 508 do_sel S ? 0:01 init [3] ...
The System.map file is generated by ($1 = vmlinux $2 = System.map):
$NM -n $1 | grep -v '\( [aUw] \)\|\(__crc_\)' > $2
Can we change this to:
$NM -n $1 | grep -v '\( [aUw] \)\|\(__crc_\)\|\( \$[adt]\)' > $2
?
