The patch looks correct but I'm curious: is there a reason this code 
doesn't use struct printk_log?

GDB already knows about struct offsets so there should be no need to 
handle ifdefs with arithmetic.

Is it realistic to use gdb without struct layout info?

Sorry for the delay:

I suspect we will see more in nearer future with upcoming printk rework...

Re: [PATCH] scripts/gdb: fix lx-dmesg when CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER is set

2019-10-10 Thread Joel Colledge
Hi Jan and Kieran, maintainers of scripts/gdb/,
CC: Leonard, most recent contributor to scripts/gdb/linux/dmesg.py

Could someone look at this fix please? Is there anything I should
improve in the code or the format of the contribution? Thanks.


[PATCH] scripts/gdb: fix lx-dmesg when CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER is set

2019-09-25 Thread Joel Colledge
When CONFIG_PRINTK_CALLER is set, struct printk_log contains an
additional member caller_id. As a result, the offset of the log text is
different.

This fixes the following error:

  (gdb) lx-dmesg
  Python Exception  embedded null character:
  Error occurred in Python command: embedded null character
