What use is the kernel-debuginfo package?
by Chuck Ebbert 22 Mar '07

22 Mar '07

I can't get a combined source/disassembly listing from objdump using the kernel-debuginfo package: 1) objdump has no clue how to use the separate debug info: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4030 No activity, bug is unassigned. 2) The path to the debug info is wrong anyway. In fact, there _is_ no path info in the .gnu_debuglink section of the kernel modules: $ objdump -j .gnu_debuglink -D ahci.ko ahci.ko: file format elf32-i386 Disassembly of section .gnu_debuglink: 00000000 <.gnu_debuglink>: 0: 61 popa 1: 68 63 69 2e 6b push $0x6b2e6963 6: 6f outsl %ds:(%esi),(%dx) 7: 2e 64 65 62 75 67 bound %esi,%cs:%fs:%gs:0x67(%ebp) d: 00 00 add %al,(%eax) f: 00 21 add %ah,(%ecx) 11: 25 .byte 0x25 12: 80 .byte 0x80 13: c9 leave This decodes to "ahci.ko.debug" plus a checksum, but it should read "/usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/2.6.20-1.2925.fc6/kernel/drivers/ata/ahci.ko.debug" So my question is, who uses this debug info and how do they use it???

Very cool. Jon.

2.6.20-1.2999.fc7 and suspend
by Bill Peck 21 Mar '07

Suspend to ram does not work with 2.6.20-1.2999.fc7 on an Asus Pundit P3-PH5, Dual core Intel. I know desktops aren't specifically supported but suspend/resume does work on this with 2.6.20-1.2925.fc6. I'll open a proper BZ if this is expected to work at this time.
