Hi,
This is an update of crash analisys tool for Xen hypervisor.
(posted 2006/10/30)
The main enhance is x86_64 support and minor changes are
the following:
* now command name is just "crash"
It recognizes as Xen hypervisor analysis if
- the name of namelist starts "xen-syms", or
- --hyper option specified
* BT_XEN_HYPER_MODE flag is removed
* checking by "make warn" done
Note: This is still based on crash-4.0-3.8
To use xencrash:
- get crash-4.0-3.8 from
http://people.redhat.com/anderson/crash-4.0-3.8.tar.gz
- tar zxf crash-4.0-3.8.tar.gz
- cd crash-4.0-3.8
- zcat xencrash-4.0-3.8-0.2.patch.gz | patch -p1
- make
usage: crash xen-syms dump-file
where dump-file is either
- vmcore (whole memory dump image) get by kdump, or
- xendump (the part of xen hypervisor) cut by dom0cut
support architecture is x86 and x86_64.
The main direction of our development will be IA-64 support.
Thanks.
