What I was actually trying (not successfully yet) was to see if I could make a fake binary which just contains debug info for the few kernel structures I care about. Starting with task_struct as an example. Then it should be a simple matter of loading those symbols using 'symbol-file'. These "fake binaries" should be quite a lot smaller than an entire vmlinux. As I said I haven't actually made this work yet. Also working on a virDomainMemoryPeek patch for crash.
