  Introduction to Debugging the FreeBSD Kernel

  Just like every other piece of software, the FreeBSD kernel has bugs. Debugging a kernel is a bit different from debugging a userland program as there is nothing underneath the kernel to provide debugging facilities such as ptrace() or procfs. This paper will give a brief overview of some of the tools available for investigating bugs in the FreeBSD kernel. It will cover the in-kernel debugger DDB and the external debugger kgdb which is used to perform post-mortem analysis on kernel crash dumps.

  Introduction to Debugging the FreeBSD Kernel

  • Basic crash messages, what a crash looks like
    • typical panic() invocation
    • page fault example
  • "live" debugging with DDB
    • stack traces
    • ps
    • deadlock examples
    • show lockchain
    • show sleepchain
    • Adding new DDB commands
  • KGDB
    • inspecting processes and threads
    • working with kernel modules
    • using scripts to extend
  • examining crashdumps using utilities
    • ps, netstat, etc.
  • debugging strategies
    • kernel crashes
    • system hangs

  Recently I have been attending Hostobzor 12th, the Russian conference of hosting providers, beeing held at Raivola hotel near St. Petersburg. The event was great as always thanks to organizers. There was a number of intersting talks given, a lot of interesting discussions held, and, what I appreciate better, a lot of new people with great ideas met.

  I gave a talk on using the FreeBSD Ports system to mange a large-scale virtual hosting installations based on Hosting Telesystems experience. I tried to describe in detail how we use the ports collection to deploy a large number of servers diverced by architecture and OS versions, how we build packages and distribute them among servers, talked about how we use Mercurial VCS to incrementally merge upstream changes into our modified ports collection and FreeBSD src trees. Hopefully, I've not screwed it much... At least, some people was interested a lot and asked interesting questions.
