scripts/gdb: support !CONFIG_MODULES gracefully
If CONFIG_MODULES is not enabled, lx-lsmod tries to find a non-existent symbol and generates an unfriendly traceback: (gdb) lx-lsmod Address Module Size Used by Traceback (most recent call last): File "scripts/gdb/linux/modules.py", line 75, in invoke for module in module_list(): File "scripts/gdb/linux/modules.py", line 24, in module_list module_ptr_type = module_type.get_type().pointer() File "scripts/gdb/linux/utils.py", line 28, in get_type self._type = gdb.lookup_type(self._name) gdb.error: No struct type named module. Error occurred in Python command: No struct type named module. Catch the error and return an empty module_list() for a clean command output as follows: (gdb) lx-lsmod Address Module Size Used by (gdb) Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/94d533819437408b85ae5864f939dd7ca6fbfcd6.1462865983.git.jan.kiszka@siemens.com Signed-off-by: Kieran Bingham <kieran.bingham@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
