Hi,
Could someone please explain why we cannot get source line numbers when
disassembling modules? Is the problem missing functionality in
store_load_module_symbols() or is there an inherent limitation with the
gdb linked in with crash in that it cannot accept additional debug_line
information for modules? I ask because gdb has this functionality for
user-space shared libraries and it seems to work OK. Or am I missing
something which is much more complex?
Thanks,

What architecture?
I'm presuming that you're running the "mod" command to load
the debuginfo data from the target module:
