Abstract: A method for an electronic device to access kernel data is provided. The method includes transmitting data associated with a kernel symbol to a secure world that is included in a normal world, determining whether a normal world kernel data observation request exists, when the normal world kernel data observation request exists, adjusting the allocation of a virtual memory address space of the secure world, transmitting the normal world kernel data from the normal world to the secure world, loading the normal world kernel data into a virtual address space of the secure world, linking the data associated with the kernel symbol to the normal world kernel data, and observing the normal world kernel data that is loaded into the virtual address space of the secure world, wherein the data associated with the kernel symbol is included in the normal world when the electronic device is booted.
