Ah yes, thank you. Will fix in v2. > BTW, even if CONFIG_MODULES=n, we can embed the kernel module code. > So should this visible if the CONFIG_MODULES=n ? That is a very good point. And in that case, the ranges information should still be produced when this option is set. I will move the option to a more appropriate location, not depending on CONFIG_MODULES. > Thank you, Thank you for your feedback! > > + bool "Generate address range information for builtin modules" > > + depends on VMLINUX_MAP > > + help > > + When modules are built into the kernel, there will be no module name > > + associated with its symbols in /proc/kallsyms.
