Message-ID: <200403022152.06950.billyrose@cox-internet.com> (raw)

i have some bandwidth i can dedicate to writting a kernel module that provides 
a command interpreter running in kernel space (think of it as the god mode 
console in quake). the purpose for this would be primarily aimed at the 
kernel developers so they can reach in and grab variables, dump certain 
sections of memory, walk memory, dump code segments, dump processes 
(including the kernel data structures for them), anything else i/you can 
think of. is this a waste of time, or would that get used?
