I am attempting to connect the GDB to my compiled linux kernel. I changed the .config file and enabled debugging. I input into gdb the following.
source vmlinux-gdb.py
The result is
Python Exception <class 'NameError'>: name 'MNT_NOSUID' is not defined Error occurred in Python: name 'MNT_NOSUID' is not defined
What is MNT_NOSUID and in what python package can it be found?
MNT_NOSUID is a flag meaning this filesystem should be mounted subject to constraint the that setuid and setgid programs referenced through the mount should not be executable.
MNT_NOSUID being not defined (more correctly, being unparseable) is a known issue, see the correspondence at LKML: https://lkml.org/lkml/2025/5/31/383
