Kuan-Ying Lee 11f956538c scripts/gdb/symbols: add specific ko module load command
Patch series "Add GDB memory helper commands", v2.

I've created some GDB commands I think useful when I debug some memory
issues and kernel module issue.

For memory issue, we would like to get slabinfo, slabtrace, page_owner and
vmallocinfo to debug the memory issues.

For module issue, we would like to query kernel module name when we get a
module text address and load module symbol by specific path.

Patch 1-2:
 - Add kernel module related command.
Patch 3-5:
 - Prepares for the memory-related command.
Patch 6-8:
 - Add memory-related commands.


This patch (of 8):

Add lx-symbols <ko_path> command to support add specific
ko module.

Example output like below:
(gdb) lx-symbols mm/kasan/kasan_test.ko
loading @0xffff800002d30000: mm/kasan/kasan_test.ko

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
