Subject:   DDB: How to find address of static symbol?
Message-ID:  <19990722150850.A27165@cons.org>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I want to examine and switch a variable in ddb. The variable is static
to a source file, I don't have a symbol in ddb.

I see the address of the symbol with `nm /kernel | grep symname`, but
the addresses listed here are obviously subject to file-specific
offsets. The addresses show up twice and I can verify that the data is
wrong when I just use the hex address in ddb.

How can I get an address suitable for ddb? What are the offsets to add
to the symbol addresses I get from nm?

Thanks
	Martin
