[PATCH 0/4] support for text-relative kallsyms table

2016-01-20 Thread Ard Biesheuvel
This implements text-relative kallsyms address tables. This was developed as part of my series to implement KASLR/CONFIG_RELOCATABLE for arm64, but I think it may be beneficial to other architectures as well, so I am presenting it as a separate series. The idea is that on 64-bit builds, it is rath
