FreeBSD 9.1用kgdb调试kernel dump文件

FreeBSD 9.1用kgdb调试kernel dump文件

kgdb貌似和ddb一样属于FreeBSD专属的调试器。


1、开启kdump功能
root@BTazuo:/root # cat /etc/rc.conf
# Set dumpdev to "AUTO" to enable crash dumps, "NO" to disable
dumpdev="AUTO"

2、模拟触发一个内核崩溃，做一个panic即可
root@BTazuo:/root # sysctl debug.kdb.panic=1

3、系统会把这个panic导致的dump文件存储在 /var/crash/目录下面，第一个命名为vmcore.0

4、开始调试，先到 对应的内核版本的kernel.debug文件的路径下去：

root@BTazuo:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC_20130219 # ll | grep kernel
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  16031061 Feb 19 14:36 kernel*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  62180463 Feb 19 14:36 kernel.debug*
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  48269559 Feb 19 14:36 kernel.symbols*

5、开始调试
root@BTazuo:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC_20130219 # kgdb kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.0

#0  doadump (textdump=1) at pcpu.h:244
244             __asm("movl %%fs:0,%0" : "=r" (td));

6、查看调用栈：
(kgdb) bt

可见这个panic是因为用户输入了sysctl panic导致的。
