[PATCH v2] gdb: lx-symbols: store the abspath()
From: Johannes Berg
Date: Thu Dec 17 2020 - 03:18:37 EST
From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>
If we store the relative path, the user might later cd to a
different directory, and that would break the automatic symbol
resolving that happens when a module is loaded into the target
kernel. Fix this by storing the abspath() of each path given,
just like we already do for the cwd (os.getcwd() is absolute.)
