      24  /* This file is part of the vtable verification feature (for a
      25     detailed description of the feature, see comments in
      26     vtable-verify.c).  The vtable verification feature creates
      27     certain global symbols that need to be read-write sometimes during
      28     program execution, and read-only at others.  It uses 'mprotect' to
      29     change the memory protections of the pages on which these variables
      30     are stored.  In order to not affect the protections of other
      31     program variables, these variables are put into a special named
      32     section, ".vtable_map_vars", which is page-aligned at the start,
      33     and which is padded with a page-sized amount of zeros at the end.
      34     To make this section page aligned, we create a special symbol,
      35     "_vtable_map_vars_start" which we make the very first thing that
      36     goes into the section.  That is defined in vtv_start.c (which
      37     contains nothing else).  vtv_start.c gest compiled into
      38     vtv_start.o, and vtv_start.o gets inserted into the link line
      39     immediately after crtbegin.o, if the program is compiled with
      40     -fvtable.verify.
      41  
      42     In order to pad the ".vtable_map_vars" section with a page-sized
      43     amount of zeros at the end, there is a second symbol,
      44     _vtable_map_vars_end.  This file defines that symbol (and only this
      45     symbol).  This second symbol is a page-sized array of chars,
      46     zero-filled, and is the very last thing to go into the section.
      47     When the GCC driver inserts vtv_start.o into the link line (just
      48     after crtbegin.o) it also inserts vtv_end.o into the link line,
      49     just before crtend.o.  This has the desired effect of making our
      50     section page-aligned and page-size paded, ensuring that no other
      51     program data lands on our pages.  */
