and is module aware. Yes, this means that kvm_nlist(3) will find symbols
in loaded modules. The emulation of the nlist struct is pretty crude but
seems to work well enough for all the users in the tree that I found.
dead kernel debugging. The previous code was a "do nothing".
The most obvious side effect of this is that you can now do things like
this and reasonably expect them to work:
dmesg -M /var/crash/vmcore.3 -N /var/crash/kernel.3
ps -axl -M /var/crash/vmcore.3 -N /var/crash/kernel.3
A good deal of this was lifted from the gdb code to do this, as well as
from NetBSD's libkvm (which has completely different VM macros)
Given the right circumstances, a call to kvm_open can result in a core
dump.
The diff belows fixes this (note that this change is already in the
NetBSD code). Could somebody apply this?
