Gunnar Beutner 7236584132 Kernel: Make kernel symbols available much earlier in the boot process
This adds a new section .ksyms at the end of the linker map, reserves
5MiB for it (which are after end_of_kernel_image so they get re-used
once MemoryManager is initialized) and then embeds the symbol map into
the kernel binary with objcopy. This also shrinks the .ksyms section to
the real size of the symbol file (around 900KiB at the moment).

By doing this we can make the symbol map available much earlier in the
boot process, i.e. even before VFS is available.

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Build status Fuzzing Status Discord

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
