(need to lookup KPML4, 4 level page tree etc) I'll touch bases with you about the relocatable kernel modules. If we want GDB to use them as symbol files and for debug information, we need to find a way for them to be loaded in GDB. I think this will affect how we want to solve kernel debugging in general. I already prepared for some contingencies, like building libgdb explicitly so that we can link against it and abuse whatever hooks there are, but that may not be enough. If you already have some thoughts about this, feel free to pitch them my way. Otherwise I'll get back to it myself. -- Marcel Moolenaar USPA: A-39004 marcel@xcllnt.net
