10 * Usage guidelines:
11 * _text, _data: architecture specific, don't use them in arch-independent code
12 * [_stext, _etext]: contains .text.* sections, may also contain .rodata.*
13 * and/or .init.* sections
14 * [_sdata, _edata]: contains .data.* sections, may also contain .rodata.*
15 * and/or .init.* sections.
16 * [__start_rodata, __end_rodata]: contains .rodata.* sections
17 * [__start_data_ro_after_init, __end_data_ro_after_init]:
18 * contains data.ro_after_init section
19 * [__init_begin, __init_end]: contains .init.* sections, but .init.text.*
20 * may be out of this range on some architectures.
21 * [_sinittext, _einittext]: contains .init.text.* sections
22 * [__bss_start, __bss_stop]: contains BSS sections
24 * Following global variables are optional and may be unavailable on some
25 * architectures and/or kernel configurations.
26 * _text, _data
27 * __kprobes_text_start, __kprobes_text_end
28 * __entry_text_start, __entry_text_end
29 * __ctors_start, __ctors_end
