I have developed some flight recording capability in the JUNOS FreeBSD
based kernel, with the flight recorded data being captured in binary
form for performance. All the subsequent formatting and display of this
data is performed by a user-space application. I would like to reduce
the amount of time that designers spend writing formatters to display
their flight recorded data. kgdb is perfectly capable of displaying all
kernel resident data structures, and the manner in which it does so is
perfectly acceptable for flight recording purposes. The code that kgdb
uses to support this framework is difficult to break out - does anyone
know of a dwarf2 reader s/w implementation that is more re-usable?
