Subject: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Associate GDB scripts with their subsystems
Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2025 10:52:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250625175239.1099848-1-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com> (raw)
The GDB scripts under scripts/gdb/linux are very useful for inspecting
kernel data structures however they depend upon the internal APIs and
data structures which are updated without much consideration for those
scripts. This results in a near constant catching up with fixing the
scripts so they continue to work.
Associate the GDB scripts with their subsystems in the hope that they
get more love and attention.
