Nava,

There is module support for lcrash in the latest SF CVS version.
You can add module symbols using the following command:

> nm mymodule.o > mymodule.lst
> lcrash ...
    >> symtab -a mymodule.lst mymodule

There is also an additional command "module" which can list all
kernel modules and their symbols.

Hi,

  I am new to lkcd and just installed it and tested on Redhat 7.1 and
2.4.2 base on a Pentium system. I just created the system panic with
my module type driver. When I generated report I got the following:
================================================================
STACK TRACE FOR TASK: 0xc14c4000 (soe_mgr)

 0 dump_execute+189 [0xc016adc9]
 1 panic+131 [0xc0116b23]
 2 panic+131 [0xc0116b23]
TRACE ERROR 0x1
================================================================

Since my driver is kernel a module, I think, lcrash cound't find the
symbols.
Can someone help me how I can use lcrash and lkcd to debug module type
drivers.
Are there any documents to show the usage of lcrash and create new
macros to generate traces?.

Thanks,
Nava
