I think that the linked patch files include a whole ton of macros from LinkedPatchMacros.a. The macros set up all kinds of stuff. At boot time, LinkedPatchLoader constructs jump tables for all the linked patch resources. I think. It was very confusing when I read it. I’m not even sure we’re talking about the same thing. Does my description make sense with what comments and source you are looking at?
