Attach is a script that works for both uml running in gdb or for kgdb.
Usage: add-symbol-file module
Where module can be just the mod_name or mod_name.ko or a full-path
What you do is ssh into a running uml, after the module was loaded by the uml,
and run the script.
The printed message is what you need to paste at the gdb command-line. (the
first chance you get)
Note that the path echoed is relative to the uml root. You might need to adjust
it for gdb since
gdb will see the host path. If the module is inside the root_fs file than you
will need to point
gdb to a copy of the module file on the host.
I hope that helps
