Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places. The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest: - The script printed > guest RAM blocks: > target_start target_end host_addr message count > ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------- ----- > 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 00007f95d0000000 added 1 > 00000000000a0000 00000000000b0000 00007f960ac00000 added 2 > 00000000000c0000 00000000000ca000 00007f95d00c0000 added 3 > 00000000000ca000 00000000000cd000 00007f95d00ca000 joined 3 > 00000000000cd000 00000000000d0000 00007f95d00cd000 joined 3 > 00000000000d0000 00000000000f0000 00007f95d00d0000 joined 3 > 00000000000f0000 0000000000100000 00007f95d00f0000 joined 3 > 0000000000100000 0000000030000000 00007f95d0100000 joined 3 > 00000000fc000000 00000000fc800000 00007f960ac00000 added 4 > 00000000fffe0000 0000000100000000 00007f9618800000 added 5 > dumping range at 00007f95d0000000 for length 00000000000a0000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000010000 > dumping range at 00007f95d00c0000 for length 000000002ff40000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000800000 > dumping range at 00007f9618800000 for length 0000000000020000 -

Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places. The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest: - The script printed > guest RAM blocks: > target_start target_end host_addr message count > ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------- ----- > 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 00007f95d0000000 added 1 > 00000000000a0000 00000000000b0000 00007f960ac00000 added 2 > 00000000000c0000 00000000000ca000 00007f95d00c0000 added 3 > 00000000000ca000 00000000000cd000 00007f95d00ca000 joined 3 > 00000000000cd000 00000000000d0000 00007f95d00cd000 joined 3 > 00000000000d0000 00000000000f0000 00007f95d00d0000 joined 3 > 00000000000f0000 0000000000100000 00007f95d00f0000 joined 3 > 0000000000100000 0000000030000000 00007f95d0100000 joined 3 > 00000000fc000000 00000000fc800000 00007f960ac00000 added 4 > 00000000fffe0000 0000000100000000 00007f9618800000 added 5 > dumping range at 00007f95d0000000 for length 00000000000a0000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000010000 > dumping range at 00007f95d00c0000 for length 000000002ff40000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000800000 > dumping range at 00007f9618800000 for length 0000000000020000 -

class DumpGuestMemory(gdb.Command):
"""Extract guest vmcore from qemu process coredump.
The two required arguments are FILE and ARCH:
FILE identifies the target file to write the guest vmcore to.
ARCH specifies the architecture for which the core will be generated.
Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places. The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest: - The script printed > guest RAM blocks: > target_start target_end host_addr message count > ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------- ----- > 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 00007f95d0000000 added 1 > 00000000000a0000 00000000000b0000 00007f960ac00000 added 2 > 00000000000c0000 00000000000ca000 00007f95d00c0000 added 3 > 00000000000ca000 00000000000cd000 00007f95d00ca000 joined 3 > 00000000000cd000 00000000000d0000 00007f95d00cd000 joined 3 > 00000000000d0000 00000000000f0000 00007f95d00d0000 joined 3 > 00000000000f0000 0000000000100000 00007f95d00f0000 joined 3 > 0000000000100000 0000000030000000 00007f95d0100000 joined 3 > 00000000fc000000 00000000fc800000 00007f960ac00000 added 4 > 00000000fffe0000 0000000100000000 00007f9618800000 added 5 > dumping range at 00007f95d0000000 for length 00000000000a0000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000010000 > dumping range at 00007f95d00c0000 for length 000000002ff40000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000800000 > dumping range at 00007f9618800000 for length 0000000000020000 -

This GDB command reimplements the dump-guest-memory QMP command in
python, using the representation of guest memory as captured in the qemu
coredump. The qemu process that has been dumped must have had the
command line option "-machine dump-guest-core=on" which is the default.
Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed.

For simplicity, the "paging", "begin" and "end" parameters of the QMP
command are not supported -- no attempt is made to get the guest's
internal paging structures (ie. paging=false is hard-wired), and guest
memory is always fully dumped.
Currently aarch64-be, aarch64-le, X86_64, 386, s390, ppc64-be,
ppc64-le guests are supported.
Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places.

The CORE/NT_PRSTATUS and QEMU notes (that is, the VCPUs' statuses) are
not written to the vmcore. Preparing these would require context that is
only present in the KVM host kernel module when the guest is alive. A
fake ELF note is written instead, only to keep the ELF parser of "crash"
happy.
Dependent on how busted the qemu process was at the time of the
coredump, this command might produce unpredictable results. If qemu
deliberately called abort(), or it was dumped in response to a signal at
a halfway fortunate point, then its coredump should be in reasonable
shape and this command should mostly work."""

Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places. The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest: - The script printed > guest RAM blocks: > target_start target_end host_addr message count > ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------- ----- > 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 00007f95d0000000 added 1 > 00000000000a0000 00000000000b0000 00007f960ac00000 added 2 > 00000000000c0000 00000000000ca000 00007f95d00c0000 added 3 > 00000000000ca000 00000000000cd000 00007f95d00ca000 joined 3 > 00000000000cd000 00000000000d0000 00007f95d00cd000 joined 3 > 00000000000d0000 00000000000f0000 00007f95d00d0000 joined 3 > 00000000000f0000 0000000000100000 00007f95d00f0000 joined 3 > 0000000000100000 0000000030000000 00007f95d0100000 joined 3 > 00000000fc000000 00000000fc800000 00007f960ac00000 added 4 > 00000000fffe0000 0000000100000000 00007f9618800000 added 5 > dumping range at 00007f95d0000000 for length 00000000000a0000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000010000 > dumping range at 00007f95d00c0000 for length 000000002ff40000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000800000 > dumping range at 00007f9618800000 for length 0000000000020000 -

def dump_iterate(self, vmcore):
"""Writes guest core to file."""
Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places. The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest: - The script printed > guest RAM blocks: > target_start target_end host_addr message count > ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------- ----- > 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 00007f95d0000000 added 1 > 00000000000a0000 00000000000b0000 00007f960ac00000 added 2 > 00000000000c0000 00000000000ca000 00007f95d00c0000 added 3 > 00000000000ca000 00000000000cd000 00007f95d00ca000 joined 3 > 00000000000cd000 00000000000d0000 00007f95d00cd000 joined 3 > 00000000000d0000 00000000000f0000 00007f95d00d0000 joined 3 > 00000000000f0000 0000000000100000 00007f95d00f0000 joined 3 > 0000000000100000 0000000030000000 00007f95d0100000 joined 3 > 00000000fc000000 00000000fc800000 00007f960ac00000 added 4 > 00000000fffe0000 0000000100000000 00007f9618800000 added 5 > dumping range at 00007f95d0000000 for length 00000000000a0000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000010000 > dumping range at 00007f95d00c0000 for length 000000002ff40000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000800000 > dumping range at 00007f9618800000 for length 0000000000020000 -

Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places. The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest: - The script printed > guest RAM blocks: > target_start target_end host_addr message count > ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------- ----- > 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 00007f95d0000000 added 1 > 00000000000a0000 00000000000b0000 00007f960ac00000 added 2 > 00000000000c0000 00000000000ca000 00007f95d00c0000 added 3 > 00000000000ca000 00000000000cd000 00007f95d00ca000 joined 3 > 00000000000cd000 00000000000d0000 00007f95d00cd000 joined 3 > 00000000000d0000 00000000000f0000 00007f95d00d0000 joined 3 > 00000000000f0000 0000000000100000 00007f95d00f0000 joined 3 > 0000000000100000 0000000030000000 00007f95d0100000 joined 3 > 00000000fc000000 00000000fc800000 00007f960ac00000 added 4 > 00000000fffe0000 0000000100000000 00007f9618800000 added 5 > dumping range at 00007f95d0000000 for length 00000000000a0000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000010000 > dumping range at 00007f95d00c0000 for length 000000002ff40000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000800000 > dumping range at 00007f9618800000 for length 0000000000020000 -

Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places.

Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest. This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python, https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to the QMP command. Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed. I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places. The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4 (2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest: - The script printed > guest RAM blocks: > target_start target_end host_addr message count > ---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ------- ----- > 0000000000000000 00000000000a0000 00007f95d0000000 added 1 > 00000000000a0000 00000000000b0000 00007f960ac00000 added 2 > 00000000000c0000 00000000000ca000 00007f95d00c0000 added 3 > 00000000000ca000 00000000000cd000 00007f95d00ca000 joined 3 > 00000000000cd000 00000000000d0000 00007f95d00cd000 joined 3 > 00000000000d0000 00000000000f0000 00007f95d00d0000 joined 3 > 00000000000f0000 0000000000100000 00007f95d00f0000 joined 3 > 0000000000100000 0000000030000000 00007f95d0100000 joined 3 > 00000000fc000000 00000000fc800000 00007f960ac00000 added 4 > 00000000fffe0000 0000000100000000 00007f9618800000 added 5 > dumping range at 00007f95d0000000 for length 00000000000a0000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000010000 > dumping range at 00007f95d00c0000 for length 000000002ff40000 > dumping range at 00007f960ac00000 for length 0000000000800000 > dumping range at 00007f9618800000 for length 0000000000020000 -
