Dumping all physical memory during kernel crash
Is it possible to dump all physical attached DRAM memory to some persistent storage?
I'm wondering how to get around gathering lots of different process state (internal and external) in a system with
hundreds of QNX processes executing during some hard failure that results in one process requesting a system restart.
We have many GB of Hard disk space available to dump DRAM content to, but I'm not sure how we would go about dumping 4GB
of DRAM to it in a fashion that would be retrievable and usable for offline analysis (loading cores for various
processes) after restart.
Has this been solved before?
Thanks
Darren
