  1. CS4540 Operating System Local/Remote Windows Kernel Debugging Davion Teh| Kelvin Yeap Dillon Burton | Rodney Dulin

  2. Local Debugging • Not possible to do live local kernel debugging in windows 7 • “You can’t dissect yourself while you’re conscious” • - True facts

  3. LiveKD Local Debugging • Gets a “snapshot” dump file of the local kernel memory (does not stop kernel) • Debug the “snapshot” dump file with windbg/kd

  4. Remote Debugging • Possible to achieve live kernel debugging (downside - requires 2+ machines) • Able to get NEWEST logs from crashes

  5. Remote Debugging -2 • Useful when developing an application running on a web server or client with different environment than the host • Significantly shortens time spent to find faults • Get to have fun crashing debuggee manually (hint: “.crash”)

  6. Breakpoints • bp (set breakpoint) • Bu (set unresolved breakpoint) • Bm (set symbol breakpoint) • Bl (list breakpoints) • Bc [id] (clear breakpoint)

  7. 1)Run VM 2)Immediately run the command below: Windbg –b –k com:port=\\.\pipe\<pipename>,pipe 3)Enter “g” in Windbg (and press enter,thanks) 4)Once window loads, open notmyfault.exe 5)do HighIRQL crash 6)!analyze –v 7) Copy those info (from notmyfault to end)
