Good catch!

but isn't there another gdb option or setting to show their details?
(gdb) ptype struct page
type = struct page {
unsigned long flags;
union {
struct {...};
struct {...};
struct {...};
...
If there is no setting other than '/o', it's a bit strange UI design,
I think.. (although I cannot find so far..)
Also the 'ptype /o' overdoes unfolding struct members,
and extra spaces and lines are printed with the patch:
* crash-7.3.2
crash-7.3.2> struct address_space
struct address_space {
struct inode *host;
struct xarray i_pages;
atomic_t i_mmap_writable;
struct rb_root_cached i_mmap;
struct rw_semaphore i_mmap_rwsem;
unsigned long nrpages;
...
crash-7.3.2> struct -o address_space
struct address_space {
[0] struct inode *host;
[8] struct xarray i_pages;
[32] atomic_t i_mmap_writable;
[40] struct rb_root_cached i_mmap;
[56] struct rw_semaphore i_mmap_rwsem;
[96] unsigned long nrpages;
* With the patch
crash-dev> struct address_space
struct address_space {
struct inode *host;
struct xarray {
spinlock_t xa_lock;
gfp_t xa_flags;
void *xa_head;
size_t xarray_size_rh;
struct xarray_rh {
<no data fields>
} _rh;
} i_pages;
atomic_t i_mmap_writable;
struct rb_root_cached {
struct rb_root {
struct rb_node *rb_node;
...
crash-dev> struct -o address_space
struct address_space {
[0] struct inode *host;
struct xarray {
spinlock_t xa_lock;
gfp_t xa_flags;
void *xa_head;
size_t xarray_size_rh;
struct xarray_rh {
<no data fields>
} _rh;
[8] } i_pages;
[32] atomic_t i_mmap_writable;
struct rb_root_cached {
struct rb_root {
struct rb_node *rb_node;
...
task_struct also looks wrong:
crash-dev> struct -o task_struct
struct task_struct {
struct thread_info {
[36] unsigned long flags;
u32 status;
[0] } thread_info;
[16] volatile long state;
[24] void *stack;
...
If no another gdb setting, we will need to rewrite the parser.
So first, I'd like to know whether there is no another setting.
Thanks,
Kazu
