Analysis Targets
These targets are good for trying to find problem code in the
kernel. It's a good idea to create a stack space list when creating new code to
determine that your changes are not taking up too much kernel stack
space. The namespacecheck target is
useful for determining whether your changes can safely add its symbols
to the kernel's global namespace.
Table 10-9. Analysis targets
Target | Description |
|---|---|
| Generate a list of the functions that use the most of the kernel stack space. |
| Generate a list of all of the kernel symbols and their namespaces. This will be a large list. |
