Re: Can GDB stub report every module loading event so that the host can load every module symbol automatically?

I think we have 2 trouble about it:
1. Some stub for example a qemu, let itself set the breakpoint to
stop the event and get the lib name and address is not easy.
2. For GDB part, let it know where is the solib in sometime is not
easy. For example, cross compile kernel will be put to anywhere and
each module will be put a different dir.
