Hi,
I don't see any option to see local variables in vmcore using crash
utility. Tried gdb as well. Gdb is not able to dump stack.
(gdb) bt
#0 sysrq_handle_crash (key=99) at drivers/tty/sysrq.c:147
Backtrace stopped: Cannot access memory at address 0xffffb8c6c132fe40
(gdb) x 0xffffb8c6c132fe40
0xffffb8c6c132fe40: Cannot access memory at address 0xffffb8c6c132fe40
(gdb) info reg rsp
rsp 0xffffb8c6c132fe38 0xffffb8c6c132fe38
(gdb)
I have loaded symbols on specific .text, .data and .bss load addresses
using following commands:
gdb -c kcrash_vmcore
gdb> add-symbol-file ~/crash3/vmlinux
0xffffffff97000000 -s .data
0xffffffff97c00000 -s .bss 0xffffffff97fa5000
I could decode .text and global .data symbols but not stack addresses
and local variables. I have tried enabling CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER and also
tried the latest version of gdb and crash as well but no help.
Can someone please suggest and comment if this is indeed possible with
gdb/crash to decode local variables from vmcore?
