- Implemented support for the use of "kerntypes" debuginfo
files that
are created by the LKCD "dwarfextract" utility, as an alternative to
the use of the vmlinux file. This requires the use of the matching
System.map file, as in this example:
# crash kerntypes System.map [vmcore]
This capability was written by Cliff Wickman of SGI, and he has
generously offered to maintain its functionality. (cpw(a)sgi.com)
Hi Dave and Cliff,
Which format does the dwarfextract utility produce? Is it still
ELF format just containing the dwarf sections?
Is it possible to use the "traditional" lkcd kerntypes file, a
simple C-file containing a bunch of kernel includes, which is
compiled with -g?
