Re: hashed page directory

Hi,

Using the standard sysadmin answer to most questions, "It depends".

The easiest way is to use 'strings'. This will display the printable characters in the core dump. It's not real helpful, but may tell you something. You can also use q4, for more detail. I also understand that adb can be used to read a core file, but I have no experience with it.

See the man pages on strings, adb and search ITRC for q4.

Regards,
Mark

Re: hashed page directory

Have a look at the header file :
/usr/include/machine/pde.h to have an idea of the structure that stores the information about hashed pages.

While I dont have an exact solution please use the attached program called coran.c which does poll the core structire for information about core dump.
Compile it and run it as

$ coran -l core

You are free to tweak the code to get what you want.
