2022-06-14scripts/gdb: change kernel config dumping methodKuan-Ying Lee
[ Upstream commit 1f7a6cf6b07c74a17343c2559cd5f5018a245961 ] MAGIC_START("IKCFG_ST") and MAGIC_END("IKCFG_ED") are moved out from the kernel_config_data variable. Thus, we parse kernel_config_data directly instead of considering offset of MAGIC_START and MAGIC_END. Fixes: 13610aa908dc ("kernel/configs: use .incbin directive to embed config_data.gz") Signed-off-by: Kuan-Ying Lee <Kuan-Ying.Lee@mediatek.com> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
2019-05-14scripts/gdb: add kernel config dumping commandStephen Boyd
lx-configdump <file> dumps the contents of the gzipped .config to a text file when the config is included in the kernel with CONFIG_IKCONFIG. By default, the file written is called config.txt, but it can be any user supplied filename as well. If the kernel config is in a module (configs.ko), then it can be loaded along with symbols for the module loaded with 'lx-symbols' and then this command will still work. Obviously if you have the whole vmlinux then this can also be achieved with scripts/extract-ikconfig, but this gdb script can be useful to confirm that the memory contents of the config in memory and the vmlinux contents on disk match what is expected.
