session to alternatively be brought up against the xen-syms
binary instead of a vmlinux kernel. This update introduces
support for ia64. (oda@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)
- Verified support of live system analysis of ia64 xen kernels,
and
removed unnecessary EFI memory verification warning message
during
their initialization. (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Added gdb's "shell" command to the prohibited gdb command list,
and
updated the "help output" page to describe shell escape
usage.
(anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Fix for the x86 "bt" command for the 2.6.20 kernel, which has
added
the "xgs" field to the pt_regs structure. Without
this patch, the
exception frame dump in "bt" would show invalid contents
for several
registers; the fix also shows the GS register contents.
(anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Fix for the "mount" command for the 2.6.20 kernel to recognize
the
new "nsproxy" field in the task_struct and the contents
of the
nsproxy and mnt_namespace structures, in order to find the
root
mount namespace. Without the patch, the command would
fail with:
"mount: invalid kernel virtual address: 69 type: first
list entry".
(anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Fix for the "files" command for the 2.6.20 kernel to handle the
removal of the fdtable "max_fdset" member. Without
the patch, the
command would fail with: "files: invalid structure member
offset:
fdtable_max_fdset". (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Fix for the "net -[sS]" command options for the 2.6.20 kernel
to
handle the removal of the fdtable "max_fdset" member.
Without the
patch, the command would fail with: "net: invalid structure
member
offset: fdtable_max_fdset". (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Fix for the "vm" command for the 2.6.20 kernel to handle the removal
of the file structure's "f_dentry" member, and its placement
inside
the embedded "path" structure. Without the patch the
command would
fail with: "vm: invalid structure member offset: file_f_dentry".
(anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Fix for the "swap" command for the 2.6.20 kernel to handle the
removal
of the file structure's "f_vfsmnt" member, and its placement
inside
the embedded "path" structure. Without the patch the
command would
fail with: "swap: invalid structure member offset: file_f_vfsmnt".
