[Xen-devel] [PATCH v7 02/14] x86: properly calculate xen ELF end of image address

2016-09-23 Thread Daniel Kiper
Currently xen ELF end of image address is calculated using first line from "nm -nr xen/xen-syms" output. However, sometimes it may contain random symbol address not related to the end of image in any way. It can happen if a symbol is introduced with address larger than __end_of_image__ symbol addre
