Hmm, how did the dash get in the symbol name? If I build a defconfig x86_64 kernel from today, I see the "bringup_idt_table" symbol in vmlinux, but as per Documentation/livepatch/module-elf-format.rst shouldn't it be: .klp.sym.vmlinux.bringup_idt_table,<sympos> (which btw, sympos of 5438511 seems a little bit large?) Can you reference which kpatch-build project you are using (there are several forks floating around, plus downstream versions) and then how to reproduce this. Thanks! -- Joe
