    scripts/gdb: raise error with reduced debugging information · 8af055ae
    Florian Fainelli authored
    If CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED is enabled in the kernel configuration, we
    will typically not be able to load vmlinux-gdb.py and will fail with:
    
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "/home/fainelli/work/buildroot/output/arm64/build/linux-custom/vmlinux-gdb.py", line 25, in <module>
        import linux.utils
      File "/home/fainelli/work/buildroot/output/arm64/build/linux-custom/scripts/gdb/linux/utils.py", line 131, in <module>
        atomic_long_counter_offset = atomic_long_type.get_type()['counter'].bitpos
    KeyError: 'counter'
    
    Rather be left wondering what is happening only to find out that reduced
    debug information is the cause, raise an eror.  This was not typically a
    problem until e3c8d33e ("scripts/gdb: fix 'lx-dmesg' on 32 bits arch")
    but it has since then.
