  const char * name;
  void *(* debug_hint) (void *addr);
  bool (* is_static_object) (void *addr);
  bool (* fixup_init) (void *addr, enum debug_obj_state state);

};
```

## MEMBERS

name

name of the object typee

debug\_hint

function returning address, which have associated kernel symbol, to allow identify the object

is\_static\_object

return true if the obj is static, otherwise return false

fixup\_init

fixup function, which is called when the init check fails. All fixup functions must return true if fixup was successful, otherwise return false

fixup\_activate

fixup function, which is called when the activate check fails

fixup\_destroy

fixup function, which is called when the destroy check fails

fixup\_free

fixup function, which is called when the free check fails

fixup\_assert\_init

fixup function, which is called when the assert\_init check fails
