You should try debugging that without the lx-symbols script, just by adding soft BPs and watching what happens to the guest, what becomes incorrectly visible to it.

Yes, but only if the module X was not loaded. I just tried the following pattern and I don't have the panic: guest$ modprobe X (gdb) lx-symbols loading vmlinux scanning for modules in /linux/build loading @0xffffffffc0147000: X.ko (gdb) c Continuing. guest$ rmmod X guest$ modprobe X refreshing all symbols to reload module 'X' loading vmlinux loading @0xffffffffc0147000: X.ko Stefano ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

I didn't find a proper solution, but with this patch applied I didn't have the panic in the guest, also using kvm and soft BP: diff --git a/scripts/gdb/linux/symbols.py b/scripts/gdb/linux/symbols.py index 1be9763cf8bb..94d017a6e944 100644 --- a/scripts/gdb/linux/symbols.py +++ b/scripts/gdb/linux/symbols.py @@ -40,12 +40,9 @@ if hasattr(gdb, 'Breakpoint'): pagination = show_pagination.endswith("on.\n") gdb.execute("set pagination off") - if module_name in cmd.loaded_modules: - gdb.write("refreshing all symbols to reload module " - "'{0}'\n".format(module_name)) - cmd.load_all_symbols() - else: - cmd.load_module_symbols(module) + gdb.write("refreshing all symbols to load module " + "'{0}'\n".format(module_name)) + cmd.load_all_symbols() # restore pagination state gdb.execute("set pagination %s" % ("on" if pagination else "off")) Cheers, Stefano ^ permalink raw reply related [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread
