<div class="gmail_quote"><div>- grep kallsyms_lookup from /proc/kallsyms (it is there on SL 5.5 and SL 6.0. You can edit your program and assign something like:<br>
<br>int (*my_kallsyms_lookup_name)(const char *name) = (void *) KALLSYMS;<br><br>where KALLSYMS is address found above, or your loading script can feed this address. </div></div></blockquote><div> </div></div></div><div>
This is what i am currently doing but i need a cleaner way of doing this. <br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Sometime, this is only thing you have, and this is pretty clean. You can write a script, which could pass module parameter for the address of the function. </div>
