Title: the Mother of all backtracers ...
Post by: werner on January 25, 2004, 10:53:33 PM

BTW, there's a rather interesting tool that may be helpful when
examining truly hard to reproduce bugs:

http://www.eecs.umich.edu/CoVirt/papers/revirt.pdf

Code at:

http://www.eecs.umich.edu/CoVirt/umlinux.html

What it does is that it records all system activity (of a sandboxed
system), and allows one to replay it later - with, as far as I can
tell from the paper, perfect accuracy.

Disadvantages: needs a specific host kernel; "guest" probably not
so easy to set up in a portable way; will produce huge amounts
of trace data.

Too flattering :D But I'm afraid that I wouldn't have the time.
Besides, I can barely read C++ ...
