Real Linux Kernel Debugging in a Virtualized Environment

Linux in a virtualized environment opens a whole world of new options to debug kernel problems. Running as a guest under z/VM you can look into the memory of a live running kernel and control the execution instruction by instruction.
This presentation will show you what insights you can get if you take a deep dive look into the Linux kernel from z/VM on IBM System z. The target audience are kernel or driver developers who want to debug the interface of their code and the System z hardware or firmware.
