Hello,
Using KASLR will confuse gdb which resolves kernel symbol address from
symbol table of vmlinux. We should turn off KASLR for kernel
debugging, even in the older kernels in which its presence is
optional.
If you think it is correct, please apply to the kernels:
- 4.9 [ LTS ]
- 4.13 [ stable ]
The following commit already on the Linus tree:
- e604f1cb85367d2e5fd4cf253296d190996da81a ("docs: disable KASLR when
debugging kernel")
