Re: Accessing non-exported kernel symbols

The question comes up after trying to find a way to access ubc_umount() for an experiment, but I'm sure there are other symbols I'll want to torture as time goes on. Before the obvious response comes back that if something isn't exported, I shouldn't be playing with it, I am aware of that there isn't any guarantee of compatibility between versions of non-exported symbols and that futzing around inside dark areas of the system could have dire consequences. This is primarily for my own use in exploring how the system works and what is possible. Another obvious response is to build your own version of xnu where you add the symbol to the export set.
