Subject: [PATCH v3 12/15] gdb: Allow user defined "onload_<modname>" command to be run when module is loaded
Date: Thu, 15 Dec 2022 01:07:47 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221215070750.102591-13-development@efficientek.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221215070750.102591-1-development@efficientek.com>

When debugging a module it can be desirable to set break points on code
in the module. This is difficult in GRUB because, at GDB start, the
module is not loaded and on EFI platforms its not known ahead of time
where the module will be loaded. So allow users to create an
"onload_<modname>" command which will be run when the module with name
"modname" is loaded.

Create new command "is_user_command" which sets $ret to true value if
the first argument is the name of a user-defined command.
