Hi, I’m reaching out regarding the IMachineDebugger::readPhysicalMemory() API. While this method is declared in the SDK, it remains unimplemented (ReturnComNotImplemented() in MachineDebuggerImpl.cpp).
A patch implementing this functionality has been available since 2012 (ticket #10222), but it appears it was never reviewed or merged. In particular, such functionality would make it possible to integrate VirtualBox into introspection frameworks like LibVMI and libmicrovmi, which support multiple hypervisors for passive guest observation and analysis. - Is there any technical or policy reason this API has not been implemented so far? - Would the development team be open to revisiting the 2012 patch or an updated implementation? - If implementation is welcome, are there specific requirements or constraints to consider? I would be happy to help with testing or contribution if there’s a path forward.
