Hi,

The question is not completely related to kernel. But I came across
similar question when debugging in kernel.

I tried dissecting the SSL library using 'nm' command. It is showing the
list of symbols along with some generic addresses (to be used when
relocating).
Also there are some characters 't', 'T', 'U'. I guess these correspond
to properties of symbols - like static, extern etc.

Could someone please point out what exactly each character corresponds to?
I mean looking at the character, we should be able to denote if it's a
static symbol or inline etc. Do we have any such mapping?

man nm :)

Missed that..Sorry for being lazy to check before posting the dumb query. :)

thanks,
Daniel.
