I managed to get the ztest debug compile, using the technique written up in this thread.
One thing is still not working: Trying to apply the same methodology to an userland command (e.g. fashioning a debug-able zpool command) does not work. No matter what I do, my freshly recompiled zpool command insists on loading its libraries from the system locations ( /lib and /usr/lib) and not my workspace location (where the debug libraries are). I have a LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to where the debug lib's are ( actually 2 locations separated by ":" and terminated with a "\;". Using the same settings I use for ztest, works like a charm there. If you have managed to debug any of the usermode commands, please share your experience. I continue looking at this, my current theory is maybe the library search location is made fixed during the build. Steve -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
