Re: Issues while "Debugging Windows Kernel" running on KVM

2008-08-21 Thread Dor Laor

Can you try http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/WindowsGuestDebug
You can use windows host as a VM too.
Since (in the past) there was a problem with the virtual serial polling 
you can use -no-kvm and the

qemu patch, as described in the wiki.
Good luck, Dor.

Hi,

I am facing issues while trying to debug Windows XP kernel running on
top of Linux KVM. 


I have to debug Windows XP kernel running in a VM. I have dedicated
ttyS0 on the host to the guest. I am using the following command to
bring up Windows VM.


/usr/local/kvm/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -hda /opt/vdisk.img \
  -boot c \
  -m 512 \
  -net nic,model=rtl8139,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 \
  -net tap,ifname=qtap0,script=no \
  -smp 1 \
  -usb \
  -usbdevice tablet \
  -localtime \
  -serial /dev/ttyS0 




I have another machine, running Windows XP, connected to the Linux host
through serial cable. 



 |Windows |
 |  VM| 
 |(target)|

 --- 
|  Windows Host | - | Linux with KVM |
 --- 

I am able to send messages between Windows host and target through
serial ports (tested using windows power shell). But, I am not able to
use Win DBG (Kernel Debugger) in host to connect to target. Target is
getting stuck while booting. 


Debug enabled Windows entry in boot.ini:

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /debugport=COM1 /baudrate=115200


Can someone please help me regarding this?



Thanks,
Bhaskar
