I did that kind of work a few years ago as the crashdc project :
http://crashdc.sourceforge.net/
The project is now dormant (elegant way of saying abandoned) but everything in
there is still valid, so you might be able to reuse some of it.
One of the most efficient way I found to work on specific address is to output
to a file from within crash, work a list of command from that file output and
feed back crash with this list.
A quick example would go like that. If you want active.mm.mm_count for each task
you could do :
crash> foreach task | grep active_mm | awk '{print "* mm_struct.mm_count ",$3}'
> tempfile
crash> head -1 tempfile
* mm_struct.mm_count 0xffff880c46af9880,
crash> < tempfile
crash> * mm_struct.mm_count 0xffff880c46af9880,
mm_count = {
counter = 0x4
}
...
I'd be happy to get suggestions from others as well.
Kind regards,
...Louis
