[PATCH v9 07/32] dyndbg: reword "class unknown," to "class:_UNKNOWN_"
From: Jim Cromie
Date: Thu Jan 29 2026 - 02:30:58 EST
When a dyndbg classname is unknown to a kernel module (as before
previous patch), the callsite is un-addressable via >control queries.
The control-file displays this condition as "class unknown,"
currently. That spelling is sub-optimal/too-generic, so change it to
"class:_UNKNOWN_" to loudly announce the erroneous situation, and to
make it uniquely greppable.
