[PATCH v2 06/15] gdb: Do not run load_module if module has already been


From: Glenn Washburn
Subject: [PATCH v2 06/15] gdb: Do not run load_module if module has already been loaded
Date: Fri, 13 May 2022 18:12:39 -0500

Fix an issue where the command load_module is being run multiple times.
This happens because grub_dl_add can get called multiple times by GRUB
(eg. a user runs "insmod <module>" multple times). This causes the
symbols to get added multiple times. Instead, first check if the modules
has already been loaded, and not run load_module in the automatic runtime
module symbols loader command, runtime_load_module, if it has. This is
done using the new GDB command get_module which traverses the loaded
module list checking if a given string matches the each module name. It
returns the address of the module if found in the $ret GDB variable,
otherwise NULL.

Also add new GDB command num_modules that sets the variable $ret to the
number of modules loaded.
