Hi Rjat,

Can you define that location as read only(i.e constant)?. This is only for debug prupose, later you can remove.

I am expecting kernel panic with this change.

Regards,

Kiran

You may attach debugger (like Lauterbach) and use its data breakpoint functionality.

Hi folks,

I have a memory location (One of the fields in a kernel data structure) and I want to track down the code that changes the value of that particular location. Some thing like a "watchpoint".

And this is early while I am still booting up. Can some one tell me if it is possible to do so?

Thanks,

Rajat
