Hi Thomas, as discussed earlier today, I'm sending out a fresh rebase of the gdb scripts so that you can organize the next steps towards merge. Thanks for this in advance! Changes since v9: - rebase over recent Linux version - use a generator instead of iterator for task list, fixes thread-group iteration [Daniel Wagner] - apply generator scheme on other iterations - propose myself as maintainer See http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1210.0/01598.html for the original description and git://git.kiszka.org/linux.git queues/gdb-scripts for the latest version. There is still some issue with gdb >= 7.8 when parsing symbols of kernel modules, because I didn't deliver those folks the requested core dump of gdb so far - done now. So up to version 7.7 remains recommended for the time being. Jan CC: Daniel Thompson <daniel.thompson@xxxxxxxxxx> CC: Daniel Wagner <daniel.wagner@xxxxxxxxxxxx> CC: "David S.
