.TH KSYMS 1 "May 14, 1995" Linux "Linux Module Support"
.SH NAME
ksyms \- shows the exported kernel symbols.
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B ksyms
[ \-a ] [ \-h ] [ \-m ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.B Ksyms
shows information about all all exported kernel symbols.
The format is:
.PP
address  name  [defining module]
.PP
The describing header can be turned off with the option '-h'.
.PP
Normally, only the symbols defined by the loaded modules are show,
but with the option '-a', all exported symbols can be seen.
.PP
The information can also be seen in /proc/ksyms.
A shell-script version 'ksyms.sh' can be used to get the information
from '/proc/ksyms' instead, but this program gets the symbol information
directly from the kernel with a system call.
.PP
With the option '-m' (stands for memory map), you can also see the
starting address and the size of the allocated memory for every loaded
module.
