Enabling CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL



Hello,

Would it be possible to turn on CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL in the Debian kernel for Wheezy? It's a useful debugging option, and makes it easier to implement useful tools like Ksplice that inspect the code and data structures of the running kernel, in particular in relation to operating on modules (one can use System.map to look up addresses for data structures in the core kernel). Most other major Linux distributions have had CONFIG_KALLSYMS_ALL enabled in their kernels for some time now (RHEL, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc.).

        Best regards,
        -Tim Abbott
