Yes, according to the output of files it looks like gdb would read that data from the text section of the kernel file. How about libkvm? Would kvm_read read data from the core file? I've written the following small program (cut down dmesg.c, actually): https://people.freebsd.org/~avg/vmcore_read.c (kgdb) disassemble /r => 0xffffffff80619a1e <+750>: 48 c7 44 24 18 00 00 00 00 movq $0x0,0x18(%rsp) $ vmcore_read -N /boot/kernel.29/kernel -M /var/crash/vmcore.29 0xffffffff80619a1e 9 48 c7 44 24 18 00 00 00 00 Seems like the code is intact. P.S. 1. To correct something I said earlier, the fault is #UD, not #GP. 2. The only "suspicious" activity at the time of the crash was the execution of a bhyve VM. -- Andriy Gapon
