Hi all,
FYI... I've updated the debuggers (kdb + gdbsx) tree. Here's a summary:
- Refresh to changeset 18711
- gdbsx: Add support for HVM guest debug.
Support for kernel module debug in PV linux guests (via pgd3val)
Include gdb macros (in README) for linux kernel/module debug
- kdb: HVM guest debug support (set bp, single step)
Display VMCB/VMCS structs, more structs, etc.
Generic Trace function: to quickly debug something, esp, timing
related problems
General kdb trap func: kdb_trap_immed() to break into kdb anywhere,
possibly based on a condition.....
See READMEs in http://xenbits.xensource.com/ext/debuggers.hg
Thanks,
Mukesh

Can I use this to debug Xen or it is just for dom0?
Thanks,
Neo

I would remember that if researchers were not ambitious
probably today we haven't the technology we are using!

kdb is intended to debug xen hypervisor... can be used for dom0 also.
gdbsx is intended to debug domU (PV or HVM).
Thanks,
Mukesh

Is there any source level debugger for Xen and Dom0?
Thanks,
Neo
