Subject: scripts/gdb: issues when loading modules after lx-symbols

Hi,
I had some issues with gdb scripts and kernel modules in Linux 5.9-rc7.

If the modules are already loaded, and I do 'lx-symbols', all work fine.
But, if I load a kernel module after 'lx-symbols', I had this issue:

Guest kernel: Linux 5.9-rc7
gdb: GNU gdb (GDB) Fedora 9.1-6.fc32
I tried with QEMU 4.2.1 and the latest master branch: same issue.


I did some digging, and skipping the gdb 'add-symbol-file' command in symbol.py
avoid the issue, but of course I don't have the symbols loaded:

             else:

I tried several modules and this happens every time after '(gdb) lx-symbols'.

Do you have any hints?


Thanks,
