vmlinux-gdb unable to parse_and_eval("hrtimer_resolution") on mainline

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I've tested the below on both linux-6.5.7 and mainline linux-6.6-rc6,
both of which seem to have the same issue.

GDB 13.2 isn't able to load vmlinux-gdb.py as it throws the following:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/user/debug_kernel/linux-6.6-rc6/vmlinux-gdb.py", line
25, in <module>
    import linux.constants
  File "/home/user/debug_kernel/linux-6.6-rc6/scripts/gdb/linux/constants.py",
line 11, in <module>
    LX_hrtimer_resolution = gdb.parse_and_eval("hrtimer_resolution")
gdb.error: 'hrtimer_resolution' has unknown type; cast it to its declared type

I've built-linux like so:

make defconfig
scripts/config --disable SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS
scripts/config --disable SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS
scripts/config --set-str SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS ""
scripts/config -e CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO -e CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS -e
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
make -j$(nproc)
make scripts_gdb

$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 11.4.0-1ubuntu1~22.04) 11.4.0
$ gdb --version
GNU gdb (GDB) 13.2

This is my first time submitting a bug to the LK mailing list, please
let me know if this format is not correct or if you need more
information.

Thanks.
