Thanks Tao,

On a funny side, though I didn't understand this area of code much, but I ironically made the exact same fix to avoid problem for time being on my side, thinking there might be a different fix coming 🙂. Glad its now taken care. Thanks 🙂 

Regards,
Naveen

Subject: [Crash-Utility][PATCH] symbols.c: skip non-exist module memory type
 
Not all mod_mem_type will be included for kernel modules. E.g. in the
following module case:

(gdb) p lm->symtable[0]
$1 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbad0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[1]
$2 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbb70
(gdb) p lm->symtable[2]
$3 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbc10
(gdb) p lm->symtable[3]
$4 = (struct syment *) 0x0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[4]
$5 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbcb0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[5]
$6 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbd00
(gdb) p lm->symtable[6]
$7 = (struct syment *) 0x0
(gdb) p lm->symtable[7]
$8 = (struct syment *) 0x4dcbb48

mod_mem MOD_RO_AFTER_INIT(3) and MOD_INIT_RODATA(6) is not exist, which should
be skipped, otherwise a segfault will happen.

Fixes: 7750e61fdb2a ("Support module memory layout change on Linux 6.4")
