Hi Dave, and company,
I have a question. Perhaps this is a known issue -- should I be looking
in an archive somewhere?
The crash command "mod -S" is messing up the address list.
This is crash-4.0-7.6, running on ia64.
Note how the value of module symbol xfs_ioerror_alert has changed
after the mod -S.
Is this a crash problem? Or my problem? (there are several ?'s in
the mod -S output, including on the xfs module)
Good question -- I don't know.
It appears that the determination of the module's text starting location
is being changed by the "mod -S". That can happen when the symbols.c
function store_load_module_symbols() calls calculate_load_order_v2(),
which can change the text start location that was initialized during
the crash session initialization by store_module_symbols_v2().
The question is which text start address value is correct.
Try this:
$ crash -s
crash> help -s | grep mod_text_start > before
crash> mod -S
... [ snip ] ...
crash> help -s | grep mod_text_start > after
crash> q
$ diff before after
Typically it won't change, and the before and after files are identical.
But on your system it would appear that many (if not all) of the modules are
changing their mod_text_start values upon running "mod -S".
You can also determine which value is correct by doing a "dis <function>"
command before and after the "mod -S".
