Pykdump is an extension written in C for time-critical access plus a set of
Python libraries/scripts. Faster than Alicia 10-100 times :-)
C stuff is always simpler to understand and can easily be used. :-)
2] One can write perl based scripts to extract infromation from dumps.
The same - I am mainly working on 'xportshow.py' - printing nicely various
tables/structures, mostly IPv6 aware. Routing tables, TCP/UDP/IP connections
analysis, ARP-cache, Netfilter, devpack and so on.
So pykdump will be used for printing TCP/IP related stuff or can be used
to extract other information as well ?
Pykdump can both drive crash externally (via 'pexpect' Python module) or run
as an extension from inside 'crash' session, e.g.
crash64> epython xportshow.py --summary
Running extension / scripts within crash is good. But it won't harm running
the scripts/extensions externally as well.
