// Allow dynamic symbol lookup in the kernel VDSO page.
//
// VDSO stands for "Virtual Dynamic Shared Object" -- a page of
// executable code, which looks like a shared library, but doesn't
// necessarily exist anywhere on disk, and which gets mmap()ed into
// every process by kernels which support VDSO, such as 2.6.x for 32-bit
// executables, and 2.6.24 and above for 64-bit executables.
//
// More details could be found here:
// http://www.trilithium.com/johan/2005/08/linux-gate/
//
// VDSOSupport -- a class representing kernel VDSO (if present).
//
// Example usage:
//  VDSOSupport vdso;
//  VDSOSupport::SymbolInfo info;
//  typedef (*FN)(unsigned *, void *, void *);
//  FN fn = NULL;
//  if (vdso.LookupSymbol("__vdso_getcpu", "LINUX_2.6", STT_FUNC, &info)) {
//     fn = reinterpret_cast<FN>(info.address);
//  }
