KGTP (Linux debugger and tracer) 20130915 release (bugs fix and pdf doc)
Hi guys, KGTP (http://code.google.com/p/kgtp/) is a flexible, lightweight and realtime Linux debugger and tracer. To use it, you don't need patch or rebuild the Linux kernel. Just build KGTP module and insmod it is OK. This is the video that I introduce KGTP in GNU Tools Cauldron 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nfGAbNsEZY or http://www.tudou.com/programs/view/fPu_koiKo38/ . Please go to http://code.google.com/p/kgtp/wiki/HOWTO https://raw.github.com/teawater/kgtp/master/kgtp.pdf or http://code.google.com/p/kgtp/wiki/HOWTO https://raw.github.com/teawater/kgtp/master/kgtpcn.pdf (Chinese) to get more info about howto use KGTP. Please goto https://code.google.com/p/kgtp/wiki/HOWTO#Table_of_different_between_GDB_debug_normal_program_and_KGTP or https://code.google.com/p/kgtp/wiki/HOWTOCN#GDB调试普通程序和KGTP的区别表 (Chinese) get the table of different between GDB debug normal program and KGTP if you have experience using GDB debug normal program. Now, KGTP 20130915 release. You can get the package: Get through https: https://github.com/teawater/kgtp/archive/20130915.tar.gz Get through git: git clone https://github.com/teawater/kgtp.git git checkout 20130915 -b 20130915 The main change of this release is: Fixed bugs around x86_32. And They also reminded me to do this test on x86_32 before release. (I just do x86_64 in before.) Thanks help from Brad Dixon. Fixed bugs around while-stepping. Added pdf format docs. Moved to github. Now, I am working on insert tracepoint to user space program that base on Uprobes. The most of code work was done. Please goto https://github.com/teawater/kgtp/tree/uprobes-dev try it if you are interesting with this function.
