It really improves the debugging experience with Linux kernel modules as I don't need to reload all symbols when one module got unloaded. One more question. We are releasing a product that allows debugging Linux kernel modules with Visual Studio and your patch would be extremely useful for our customers. Would it be OK for us to publish it on our website mentioning your authorship?

Patches sent to the mailing list are usually split in series of emails. The first email of a series is often a cover letter, e.g., Patch 0/5. The real patches are in subsequent emails. This series includes a patch for the remove-symbol-file (Patch 1/5) and another one for the documentation (Patch 2/5). Patch 2/3 fixes the add-symbol-files command so that user-added files appears when typing 'info files'. Patch 4/5 adds an utility test function that is being used in Patch 5/5 for testing the command.

We are using GDB internally for some tricky debugging scenarios and were going to add the remove-symbol-file command to support some of them. According to GDB mailing lists it looks like you have already done a similar thing. Is there a possibility for us to try your patch adding the remove-symbol-file command? I could not find the patch file in the mailing list archives.
