2# This file contains a few gdb macros (user defined commands) to extract
3# useful information from kernel crashdump (kdump) like stack traces of
4# all the processes or a particular process and trapinfo.
5#
6# These macros can be used by copying this file in .gdbinit (put in home
7# directory or current directory) or by invoking gdb command with
8# --command=<command-file-name> option
