I'd like to find out what is happening here. I am an experienced C programmer, but have not dealt with kernel hacking before. I _do_ know how to build and install a kernel. I'd like some hints on what logging, etc., I could add in order to determine where in the send ioctl processing the IO error is coming from. From there, I hope to move to "why." Ideally I'd be able to run gdb on this, but nothing I have read online about kernel debugging with gdb sounds promising. I'd make an image, but the amount of data is enough to make this prohibitive. -- Michael Welsh Duggan (md5i@md5i.com) ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

The other thing to look at at least initially is KDB, but using that requires either a serial console or an AT or PS/2 keyboard. Using UML and GDB for debugging is possible, but it can take a long time to set-up and is often slow (admitedly, KDB isn't much faster). If you do go the UML+GDB route, make sure to build in fault-injection (the flaky DM module is particularly nice for this type of thing), and I would suggest using something like Buildroot (http://www.buildroot.net) to generate the root filesystem for it.
