Hi, for x86_64 platforms, I was wondering if there is any table of per-cpu variable offsets left in a (unstripped) vmlinux file. Looking at the disassembly of routines accessing a per-cpu variables like current_task, we see the offset hardcoded e.g. mov %gs:0xc500,%rax. Is there any table in some section in unstripped vmlinux that indicates current_task is at offset 0xc500 from gs base (similar to how a struct's members and offsets are enumerated in the debug sections of vmlinux)?
