Which module contains the given class

Using simics cli, once I know the class of the object, how can I get the name of the module that contains the class? Or should I consult something other than the cli?

Example: object qsp.mb.nb is of class northbridge_x58. Which module includes northbridge_x58?

And how to get the path to the .so of the module?

I tried list-objects and list-classes with various flags and looking up the documentation of the class. Still can't figure it out.

Solution

  • Using the -v should add the path to the .SO file.

    Using help northbridge_x58 provide more info, including a "Provided By" section.

    A useful command when searching for some hard-to-find matter is apropos, or a for short.
