Modified files:
release Makefile
Log:
- Revert --strip-all of /kernel on a new installed system (it would work
with kld etc just fine, but tracebacks would have less information and
nm /kernel wouldn't be so good).
- Just strip the kernel on the boot disk. This does not affect kld or
module loading, there are two symbol tables in a kernel. There is the
dynamic linking one (.dynsym+.strtab) with just global symbols and a user
symbol table (.symtab+.strtab) with all symbols. BTW; objdump lies and
hides the second one. There's a good half a meg or so that can be saved
from an average kernel by stripping it.
