> Why not use watchpoints (::wp)? > max Watchpoints assume you know the address you want to watch. I want to dynamically print out any 'common' variable that any of the executing code reads/writes. This requires looking at the current instruction, decoding any memory address it is reading/writing, and looking up the symbol at that address to determine if it is a 'common' linkage symbol.
I guess I'm wondering if mdb_readsym() or mdb_readvar() can be used to read registers, or if mdb is lacking this functionality and needs a mdb_readreg() function added to its API to programmatically get the ::regs values. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
