Hi all,
We are maintaining linux kernel for the ADI Blackfin CPU which has
L1 text and data rams. To make use of the L1 memory we add a new text
section call text_l1. So kallsyms.c need to be modified to search the
new section and generate the right Sysmap.map.
Currently we add the section support directly. Or do it in a more
common way for future extending? Any comments? Thanks!
