NAME
crash - examine system images
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/crash [ -d dumpfile ] [ -n namelist ] [
-w output-file ]
DESCRIPTION
The crash command is used to examine the system memory image
of a running or a crashed system by formatting and printing
control structures, tables, and other information. Command
line arguments to crash are dumpfile, namelist, and output-
file.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-d dumpfile
Specify dumpfile as the file containing the system
memory image. The default dumpfile is /dev/mem. The
system image can also be the pathname of a dump file
generated by the savecore(1M) utility.
-n namelist
Specify the text file namelist which contains the sym-
bol table information needed for symbolic access to
the system memory image to be examined. The default
namelist is /dev/ksyms. Note: It is recommended that
crash dumps be analyzed on a machine having the same
kernel architecture as the machine from which the dump
was taken.
-w output-file
When the crash command is invoked, a session is ini-
tiated. The output from a crash session is directed to
output-file. The default output-file is the standard
output.
USAGE
Input during a crash session is of the form:
function [ argument... ]
where function is one of the crash functions described in
the Functions subsection of this manual page, and arguments
are qualifying data that indicate which items of the system
image are to be printed.
The default for process-related items is the current process
for a running system or the process that was running at the
time of the crash for a crashed system. Similarly, the
default for thread-related items is the current thread for a
running system or the thread that was running at the time of
the crash for a crash system. If the contents of a table are
being dumped, the default is all active table entries.
Function Options
The following function options are available to crash func-
tions wherever they are semantically valid. Valid function
options are shown in Functions.
-e Display every entry in a table.
-f Display the full structure.
-p Interpret all address arguments in the command line as
physical addresses. If the addresses specified are not
physical addresses, results are inconsistent.
-s process
Specify a process slot other than the default.
-w filename
Redirect the output of a function to filename.
Output from crash functions may be piped to another program
in the following way:
function [ argument... ] ! shell_command
The redirection option -w cannot be used with this feature.
Depending on the context of the function, numeric arguments
are assumed to be in a specific radix. Counts are assumed to
be decimal. Addresses are always hexadecimal. Table address
arguments larger than the size of the function table are
interpreted as hexadecimal addresses; those smaller are
assumed to be decimal slots in the table. Default bases on
all arguments may be overridden. The C conventions for
designating the bases of numbers are recognized. A number
that is usually interpreted as decimal is interpreted as
hexadecimal if it is preceded by 0x and as octal if it is
preceded by 0. Decimal override is designated by 0d, and
binary by 0b.
Aliases for functions may be any uniquely identifiable ini-
tial substring of the function name. Traditional aliases of
one letter, such as b for buffer, remain valid.
Many functions accept different forms of entry for the same
argument. Requests for table information accept a table
entry number, a physical address, a virtual address, a
symbol, a range, or an expression. A range of slot numbers
may be specified in the form a-b where a and b are decimal
numbers. An expression consists of two operands and an
operator. An operand may be an address, a symbol, or a
number; the operator may be +, -, *, /, &, or |. An operand
that is a number should be preceded by a radix prefix if it
is not a decimal number (0 for octal, 0x for hexadecimal, 0b
for binary). The expression must be enclosed in parentheses.
Other functions accept any of these argument forms that are
meaningful.
Two abbreviated arguments to crash functions are used
throughout. Both accept data entered in several forms. They
may be expanded into the following:
table_entry = slot number | address | symbol | range |
expression
start_addr = address | symbol | expression
Functions
? [ -w filename ]
List available functions.
!command
Escape to the shell and execute command.
base [ -w filename ] number...
Print number in binary, octal, decimal, and hexade-
cimal. A number in a radix other than decimal should
be preceded by a prefix that indicates its radix as
follows: 0x, hexadecimal; 0, octal; and 0b, binary.
buffer [ -w filename ] [ -format
] bufferslot" 6
buffer
[ -w filename ] [ -format ] [ -p ] start_addr" 6
Alias: b
Print the contents of a buffer in the designated for-
mat. The following format designations are recognized:
-b, byte; -c, character; -d, decimal; -x, hexadecimal;
-o, octal; and, -i, inode. If no format is given, the
previous format is used. The default format at the
beginning of a crash session is hexadecimal.
bufhdr [ -f ] [ -w filename ] [ [ -p
] table_entry... ]" 6 Alias: buf
Print system buffer headers.
callout [ -l ] [ -w filename ]
Alias: c
Print the callout table. If the -l option is speci-
fied, the contents of the locks pertaining to the cal-
lout structure are also displayed.
class [ -w filename ][ table_entry...]
Print information about process scheduler classes.
help [ -w filename ] function...
Print a description of the named function, including
syntax and aliases.
kmalog [ -w filename] [ slab | fail
]" 6 Display events in a kernel memory allocator tran-
saction log. Events are displayed in time-reverse
order, with the most recent event displayed first. For
each event, kmalog displays the time relative to the
most recent event in T-minus notation (for example,
T-0.000151879), the bufctl, the buffer address, the
kmem cache name, and the stack trace at the time of
the event.
Without arguments, kmalog displays the kmem transac-
tion log, which is present only if KMF_AUDIT is set in
kmem_flags.
kmalog fail displays the allocation failure log, which
is always present; this can be useful in debugging
drivers that don't cope with allocation failure
correctly.
kmalog slab displays the slab create log, which is
always present. kmalog slab can be useful when search-
ing for memory leaks.
kmastat [ -w filename ]
Print kernel memory allocator statistics.
kmausers [ -e ] [ -f ] [ -w filename ]
[ cachename... ]" 6 Print the information about the
medium and large users of the kernel memory allocator
that have current memory allocations. The output con-
sists of one entry for each unique stack trace speci-
fying the total amount of memory and number of alloca-
tions that was made with that stack trace.
This function is only available if the kernel has the
KMF_AUDIT flag set in kmem_flags. (See NOTES.)
If one or more cache names (for example,
kmem_alloc_256) are specified, the scan of memory
usage is restricted to those caches. By default all
caches are included.
If the -e option is used, the small users of the allo-
cator are included. The small users are allocations
that total less than 1024 bytes of memory or for which
there are less than 10 allocations with the same stack
trace.
If the -f option is used, the stack traces are printed
for each individual allocation.
lck [ -e ] [ -w filename ] [ [ -p
] lock_addr... ]" 6 Alias: l
Print record locking information. If the -e option is
used or lock address arguments are given, the record
lock list is printed. If no argument is entered,
information on locks relative to UFS inodes is
printed.
mblk [ -e ] [ -f ] [ -w filename ]
[[ -p ] table_entry...]" 6 Print allocated streams
message block and data block headers.
mount [ -f ] [ -w filename ] [ [ -p
] table_entry...]" 6 Alias: m, vfs
Print information about mounted filename systems.
nm [ -w filename ] symbol...
Print value and type for the given symbol.
od [ -p ] [ -w filename ] [ -format ] [ -mode
] [ -s process ] start_addr [ count ]" 6 Alias: rd
Print count values starting at start_addr in one of
the following formats: character (-c), decimal (-d),
hexadecimal (-x), octal (-o), ASCII (-a), or
hexadecimal/character (-h), and one of the following
modes: long (-l), short (-t), or byte (-b). The
default mode for character and ASCII formats is byte;
the default mode for decimal, hexadecimal, and octal
formats is long. The format -h prints both hexadecimal
and character representations of the addresses dumped;
no mode needs to be specified. When format or mode is
omitted, the previous value is used. At the start of a
crash session, the format is hexadecimal and the mode
is long. If no count is entered, 1 is assumed.
table_entry...| #procid...]
proc [ -e ] [ -f ] [ -l ] [ -w filename ] [[ -
p ] [ -a ]
proc [ -e ] [ -f ] [ -l ][ -w filename ][ -r ]
Alias: p
Print the process table. Process table information may
be specified in two ways. First, any mixture of table
entries and process IDs may be entered. Each process
ID must be preceded by a #. Alternatively, process
table information for runnable processes may be speci-
fied with the runnable option -r. If the -l option is
specified, all relevant locking information is
displayed.
snode [ -e ] [ -f ][ -l ] [ -w filename ] [[ -
p ] table_entry...]
Print information about open special filenames. If the
-l option is specified, all relevant locking informa-
tion is also displayed.
strstat [ -w filename ]
Print STREAMS statistics.
tsdptbl [ -w filename ][ table_entry...]
Print the time-sharing dispatcher parameter table.
See ts_dptbl(4).
uinode [ -d ] [ -e ] [ -f ] [ -l ] [ -r
] [ -w filename ] [[ -p ] table_entry...]" 6 Alias: ui
Print the UFS inode table. The -d option will list the
address and i-number of all UFS inodes in use and on
the free list. If the -l option is specified, all
relevant locking information is also displayed. The
-r option will display all free UFS inodes.
var [ -w filename ]
Alias: v
Print the tunable system parameters.
vfs [ -e ][ -w filename ][[ -p
] address...]" 6 Alias: m, mount
Print information about mounted filename systems.
vfssw [ -f ][ -w filename ][[ -p
] table_entry...]" 6 Alias: fs
Print information about configured filename system
types.
vnode [ -w filename ][ -l ][ -p ] vnode_addr...
Print information about vnodes.
vtop [ -w filename ][ -s process
] start_addr..." 6 Print the physical address transla-
tion of the virtual address start_addr.

NOTES
The crash utility may not be present in versions of the
Solaris operating environment after Solaris 8. The crash
command is a utility for examining system crash dump files,
whose functionality is superseded by the new mdb(1) utility.
The crash command's interface was structured around imple-
mentation details, such as slots, that have no relation to
the Solaris operating environment implementation. Solaris 8
will include documentation that explains the mdb syntax that
is equivalent to each crash subcommand to enable the transi-
tion.
Kernel core dumps should be examined on the same platform on
which they were created.
The kmausers and mblkusers commands require that KMF_AUDIT
is set in kmem_flags. To do this, perform the following
steps:
1. Add the following line to /etc/system:
set kmem_flags=1
2. Reboot.
kmem auditing is quite expensive in both memory consumption
and CPU time because it records a complete stack trace for
every allocation.
