Yes, it is scary. No, the system doesn't stop -- it's just a racy way to read and write kernel memory. I don't think it's used often but I've been told that sometimes it can be very helpful in debugging annoying non-crash bugs, especially if they're hard to reproduce. -- Best regards, Michał Górny _______________________________________________ lldb-dev mailing list lldb-dev@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-dev
