2017-07-12scripts/gdb: add lx-fdtdump commandPeter Griffin
lx-fdtdump dumps the flattened device tree passed to the kernel from the bootloader to the filename specified as the command argument. If no argument is provided it defaults to fdtdump.dtb. This then allows further post processing on the machine running GDB. The fdt header is also also printed in the GDB console. For example: (gdb) lx-fdtdump fdt_magic: 0xD00DFEED fdt_totalsize: 0xC108 off_dt_struct: 0x38 off_dt_strings: 0x3804 off_mem_rsvmap: 0x28 version: 17 last_comp_version: 16 Dumped fdt to fdtdump.dtb >fdtdump fdtdump.dtb | less This command is useful as the bootloader can often re-write parts of the device tree, and this can sometimes cause the kernel to not boot.

2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add mount point list commandKieran Bingham
lx-mounts will identify current mount points based on the 'init_task' namespace by default, as we do not yet have a kernel thread list implementation to select the current running thread. Optionally, a user can specify a PID to list from that process' namespace Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/e614c7bc32d2350b4ff1627ec761a7148e65bfe6.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2016-05-23scripts/gdb: add io resource readersKieran Bingham
Provide iomem_resource and ioports_resource printers and command hooks It can be quite interesting to halt the kernel as it's booting and check to see this list as it is being populated. It should be useful in the event that a kernel is not booting, you can identify what memory resources have been registered Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/f0a6b9fa9c92af4d7ed2e7343ccc84150e9c6fc5.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

2016-03-22scripts/gdb: add version commandKieran Bingham
lx-version Report the Linux Version of the current kernel. Add a command to identify the version specified by the banner in the debugged kernel. This lets the user identify the kernel of the running kernel, and will let later scripts compare the banner of the attached kernel against the banner in the vmlinux symbols files to verify that the files are correct.
