[Crash-utility] [PATCH v2 2/3] Add support to kaslr for offline vmcore files.

Andy Honig ahonig at google.com
Thu Feb 20 00:33:51 UTC 2014


This patch adds a --kaslr command line parameter for loading x86_64
crash dumps with kaslr enabled.  This reuses the code from 32-bit
x86 relocations with some small changes.  The ASLR offset is postive
instead of negative.  Also had to move the code to traverse the
kernel section before the symbol storing code to figure out which
symbols were outside any sections and therefore were not relocated.

Also made a very small change in search_for_switch_to it was
searching through gdb command output for a slightly incorrect syntax.

Tested: Tested by loading kdump files from kernels with aslr enabled
and not enabled.  Ran bt, files, and struct file 0xXXXXXX.
