README for mdb version 2.6.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
Sept 9/96
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please note the following:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1) Has been tested with Minix 1.7.4 (32-bit version).
|
||
|
A previous version was tested with Minix 1.7.x (16 bit version).
|
||
|
Some optional parts of mdb have not been extensively tested.
|
||
|
This is especially true on the code to trace system calls.
|
||
|
See options in Makefile.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2) I know that the commands are somewhat cryptic; thus
|
||
|
there are currently two types of 'help' for mdb
|
||
|
a) the "?" gives a help page.
|
||
|
b) typing "command ?" will give help on a specific command.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3) The sample comand file and log output.
|
||
|
To test this, type something like the following
|
||
|
"mdb -llog.new /usr/bin/sleep @sample"
|
||
|
The output "log.new' should be similar to the distributed "log" file;
|
||
|
but not necessarily exactly the same.
|
||
|
|
||
|
4) Man pages need some more work.
|
||
|
|
||
|
5) See top part of mdb.c for version history.
