Is it possible for one kext to locate a symbol in another kext? I've tried APETools, dlcompat, kld, and a couple other tricks without success, but I'll admit (and it should be obvious) that I only have a vague notion of what I'm doing.

Obviously this is not for anything production and I accept responsibility for the horrible condition I'll likely leave my kernel in if I screw up!

I did notice that kextstat is able to get a list of loaded kexts and their addresses, but I could not replicate its functionality from within the kernel. Surely there is a way to do so, but I'm not familiar with the functions used.

Regards,

Ryan Govostes
