| |
Hi,
Since module is loaded in non-contiguous memory, there has to be an entry in the kernel page table for all modules that are loaded on the system. I am trying to find entries corresponding to my module text in the page tables.
I am not clear about how the kernel page table is organized after the system switches to protected mode.
I printed out the page starting with swapper_pg_dir . But I do not find the addresses for all the modules loaded in the system.
Do I still need to read the pg0 and pg1 pages ?
If somebody can explain how to traverse the kernel page tables, that would be very helpful.
thanks, Allison - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
