Subject: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH v2 1/6] efi: keep efi debug information in a separate file
Date: Sun, 25 Jun 2023 23:07:11 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230625230716.2922-2-namit@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230625230716.2922-1-namit@vmware.com>

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

Debugging tests that run on EFI is hard because the debug information is
not included in the EFI file. Dump it into a separeate .debug file to
allow the use of gdb or pretty_print_stacks script.

Signed-off-by: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>
