I'd like to patch a running kernel to disable an annoying non-rate-limited message but gdb won't let me. (For various reasons, I don't want to have to build a new kernel and reboot).
aalp03# chflags noschg /kernel aalp03# gdb -k /kernel /dev/mem GNU gdb 4.18 ... IdlePTD 3457024 initial pcb at 4d40000 panic messages: --- --- #0 0xc0159bf0 in mi_switch () (kgdb) set write on (kgdb) print {int}0xc01fffa4 = 0x00004eb8 kvm_write:write failed (kgdb) show write Writing into executable and core files is on. (kgdb) 0xc01fffa4 is in the kernel text area. This is 4.4-STABLE from mid-December running at securelevel -1. Is there any way around this?
