Hi all, We'd like to submit following feature set to LKML for comments. The feature set emphasizes the feature which FITH is good at but kprobes isn't. Any comments? -Louis -------------------------------------------------- FITH Minimal feature set 1. Data orientation Interceptor To be different with kprobes, FITH focus on intercepting data access. We can intercept data accesses in any addresses without the limitation of the number of debugger register. (Page fault method is proposed) 2. Decision Maker FITH can process intercepted data accesses with many pre-defined methods, such as logical/arithmetical operation on the access results. (This feature can simulate the hardware reading/writing error) 3. XML-based utility FITH can have a utility to describe intercepted address and corresponding operation in a XML format. |
