KGDB(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual KGDB(1)
NAME
kgdb -- kernel debugger
SYNOPSIS
kgdb [-a | -f | -fullname] [-q | -quiet] [-v] [-d crashdir]
[-c core | -n dumpnr | -r device] [kernel [core]]
DESCRIPTION
The kgdb utility is a debugger based on gdb(1) that allows debugging of
kernel core files.
The options are as follows:
-a Increase the annotation level. An annotation level of 1
features the historical -fullname option of gdb(1). This is
useful when running kgdb in Emacs. The -f or -fullname
options are supported for backward compatibility as well.
-q Suppress printing of the banner when the debugger starts.
The -quiet form is supported for compatibility as well.
-v Increase verbosity.
-d crashdir Use crashdir instead of the default, /var/crash to locate
kernel core dump files in. The name vmcore. plus the dump
number will be appended to determine the actual dump file
name.
-c core Explicitly use core as the core dump file.
-n dumpnr Use the kernel core dump file numbered dumpnr for debugging.
-r device Use device to connect kgdb to for a remote debugging ses-
sion.
The -c, -n, and -r options are mutually exclusive.
Optionally, the name of the kernel symbol file and the name of the core
dump file can be supplied on the command-line as positional arguments.
If no kernel symbol file name has been given, the symbol file of the cur-
rently running kernel will be used. If no core dump file has been speci-
fied through either of the options or the last command-line argument,
/dev/mem will be opened to allow debugging the currently running kernel.
FILES
/dev/mem Default memory image to open if no core dump file has been
specified.
/var/crash Default directory to locate kernel core dump files.
