Hello everyone. I am debugging the dynamic library linker in kernel with gdb, when the kernel is going to execute a program which uses *.so, the linker will be loaded and load other required libraries before the program is executed, because the load address of ld(linker) is 0x00000000, the kernel will load the linker in a valid address, for example 0x6fee5000, gdb fail to resolve the symbol table. I wonder if there is any method to fix the base address, so gdb can resolve the symbol table correctly. Thanks, Yang -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
