Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/4] scripts/qemugdb: backtraces for coroutines in coredump
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2018 20:32:38 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180328173238.507470-5-vsementsov@virtuozzo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180328173238.507470-1-vsementsov@virtuozzo.com>

We can't get coroutine backtrace through obvious way
 - set regs
 - bt
 - restore regs
when debugging a coredump.
So, let's go hard way: clone current coredump file, patch regs
in it and execute a subprocess gdb to get backtrace from this
patched coredump.
