Hi,

I have 2 quesions here:


1. Could any plz tell me what am i missing out here?

I basically, trying to debug my my loadable module in
kernel in kernel2.4.6 version. I patched the kernel
with 2.4.6 kgdb patch, using the recent version.

I am using the modutils shell script to load my module
loadmodule.sh which creates a gdbscript. When I source
the gdbscript I get the following warnings:

warning : section _ksymtab not found in mymodule.o
warning : section _archdata not found in mymodule.o

Do I need to patch the kernel with the modutils. Why
do I get these warnings.


2. How can I put a breakpoint to debug my init_module?
Which is the Kernel Fxn to be invoked to put a
breakpoint in my init_module?


Thanks in advance,

Jalaja
