Hello all, I'm trying to use KGDB for some days now, and since I'm still getting some errors that need to be fixed (working on it), I think that for now it's better to ask here if what I'm trying to achieve is theoretically possible with KGDB. I'm trying to do some kind of fault injection, and so what I'm planning to do is:
1. Interrupt whatever is running in the OS (this, of course, includes the OS itself); 2. Be able to call some kind of service routine to handle the interruption (an interrupt handler, I guess). This interrupt handler would inject a fault (e. g. bit-flip a breakpoint register, or the stack of the process that was interrupted, etc, i.e. something "critical" for the OS); 3. Resume OS execution and be able to access the context of the process interrupted (i. e., https://www.princeton.edu/~achaney/tmve/wiki100k/docs/Context_switch.html); I know that it seems that some of these requirements are present in KGDB, at least after reading the manual and some tutorials. But can someone confirm or deny that the above is indeed possible with KGDB? If the answer is positive, in a conceptual, general way, how would I achieve that? Thank you all, and thanks for reading.
