Subject: [PATCH v11 08/28] scripts/gdb: Add internal helper and convenience function to look up a module
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2015 07:46:27 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0a8f779c4530c3b2e714734987f421b55ca37426.1422514006.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1422514006.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1422514006.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com>
Add the internal helper get_module_by_name to obtain the module
structure corresponding to the given name. Also export this service as a
convenience function.
