From: Task Struct From Hell To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, kernel-janitors@vger.kernel.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 629 Lines: 17 List, I am trying to figure out why one of my servers crashed, I have some C and ASM knowledge and back in the 2.2 days I even wrote a few modules to the Linux kernel, but now I am completely lost in the 2.6 kbuild and as such, can someone point into some documentation on debugging vmcore's and how to enable debugging symbols so using gdb wont be as painful? :-) --- Cheers, TSFH -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
