Hm ..., I like the feature, but it doesn't work here (x86_64,
2.6.22.1). I just compiled the kernel with debugging information (-g),
then

    dwarfextract -p -s vmlinux Kerntypes

and now 

    crash -s /boot/System.map-2.6.22.1-default Kerntypes
    WARNING: cannot determine pgdat list for this kernel/architecture

    crash> p jiffies
    p: gdb request failed: p jiffies

Am I doing sth. wrong here? With

    crash -s /boot/System.map-2.6.22.1-default vmlinux

everything works flawlessly.



Thanks,
   Bernhard

PS: I compiled dwarfextract with the patches from lkcdutils
(https://lkcd.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/lkcd/trunk/lkcdutils/PATCHES/)
applied to libdwarf from http://reality.sgiweb.org/davea/dwarf.html
(latest version).
