31.Sh NAME
32.Nm ddb
33.Nd kernel debugger
34.Sh DESCRIPTION
35The
36.Nm
37debugger provides a means for debugging the kernel,
38and analysing the kernel after a system crash ("panic"), with a
39.Xr gdb 1 Ns \&-like
40syntax.
41.Pp
42.Nm
43is invoked upon a kernel panic when the
44.Xr sysctl 8
45.Va ddb.panic
46is set to 1.
47It may be invoked from the console when the sysctl
48.Va ddb.console
49is set to 1, using any of the following methods:
50.Bl -dash -offset 3n
51.It
52Using the key sequence
53.Li Ctrl-Alt-Esc .
54.It
55Sending a
56.Dv BREAK
57when using a serial console.
58.It
59Writing to the sysctl
60.Va ddb.trigger .
61.It
62For i386 and amd64 architectures,
63using the key sequence
64.Li Ctrl-Alt-Delete
65when the sysctl
66.Va machdep.kbdreset
67is set to 2.
68.El
69.Pp
70.Nm
71prompts for commands on the console with:
72.Pp
73.Dl ddb>
74.Pp
75The general syntax of a
76.Nm
77command is:
78.Bd -ragged -offset indent
79.Ar command
80.Oo Ic / Ns Ar modifiers Oc " "
81.Oo Ar address Oc Ns
82.Op Ic \&, Ns Ar count
83.Ed
84.Pp
85To save typing,
86.Nm
87makes use of a context inferred from previous commands.
88In this context,
89the current location is called
90.Va dot .
91.\" The
92.\" .Va dot
93.\" is displayed with
94.\" a hexadecimal format at a prompt.
95The
96.Ic examine ,
97.Ic search ,
98.Ic show struct ,
99and
100.Ic write
101commands update
102.Va dot
103to be that of the last address
104examined or the last location modified, and
105have intuitive effects on
106.Va next
107and
108.Va prev .
109All the other commands do not change
110.Va dot ,
111and set
112.Va next
113to be the same.
114(See
115.Sx VARIABLES . )
116.Pp
117.\" Specifying
118.\" .Ar address
119.\" in a command sets
120.\" .Va dot .
121An expression can be used in place of
122.Ar address
123(see
124.Sx EXPRESSIONS ) .
125Omitting
126.Ar address
127in a command uses the last value of
128.Va dot .
129A missing
130.Ar count
131is taken to be 1 for printing commands or \*(If
132for stack traces.
133Entering a blank line causes the last command to be repeated using
134.Va next
135in place of
136.Ar address ,
137a
138.Ar count
139of 1, and no modifiers.
140.Pp
141.Nm
142has a feature like
143.Xr more 1
144for the output.
145If the number of lines output in response to one command exceeds the number
146set in the
147.Va $lines
148variable, it displays the message
149.Ql "--db_more--"
150and waits for a response.
151.Pp
152The valid responses are:
153.Pp
154.Bl -tag -width 10n -offset indent -compact
155.It Aq Ic space
156One more page.
157.It Aq Ic return
158One more line.

496This is a tiny and handy tool for random kernel hangs analysis, of which its

498It uses some sophisticated heuristics to spot the global symbol that
499caused the hang.
500Since the discovering algorithm is a probabilistic one,
501you may spend substantial time to figure the exact symbol name.
502This smart thing requires a little of your attention, the input it accepts
503is mostly of the same format as that of the famous
504.Xr hangman 6

1167.Pp
1168Built-in debugger variables currently supported are:
