Re: [Crash-utility] Identifying structures related to memory , semaphores using crash utility

ram ba wrote: Ask "Yahoo! Answers"? ;-) Anyway, it's not clear to me what you're asking for? If a symbol-name is an instance of a data structure, or an array of data structures, you can simply enter: crash> p symbol-name If the symbol refers to an array of structures, you can pick an individual structure by its index: crash> p symbol-name[index] Or if the symbol is a pointer to a data strucutre, you display what it points to with: crash> p *symbol-name The above simply take advantage of the embedded gdb module pre-determining what the data type of a symbol is, and then printing it. When you ask that you want to "isolate the structures related to memory, semaphores, tasks", again, I don't understand what you are asking for. I'm probably missing your point, but, in any case, there's certainly no existing command that walks the symbol list and tells you what kind of data structure each one is -- if that's what you're expecting. Depending upon what you want, you could probably (1) cobble together an input script that you can in turn feed to crash, or (2) write an "extend" module that gathers the data that you specifically need.
