* What is =debuginfod=?
|
||
|
|
- Started by Red Hat in 2019.
|
||
|
|
- It @@latex:\emph{@@"is a client/server [...] that automatically
|
||
|
|
distributes =ELF= / =DWARF= / source-code from servers to clients
|
||
|
|
such as debuggers across HTTP"@@latex:}@@.
|
||
|
|
- The goal is to replace the need for =.ddeb= files (but it can do
|
||
|
|
more than that).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* How does it work?
|
||
|
|
- There's a =debuginfod= server (e.g., at
|
||
|
|
https://debuginfod.debian.net) that indexes all available debug
|
||
|
|
information from supported Debian releases.
|
||
|
|
#+BEAMER: \pause
|
||
|
|
- Debugger-like tools (e.g., =GDB=) link against =libdebuginfod=,
|
||
|
|
which provides the client support.
|
||
|
|
#+BEAMER: \pause
|
||
|
|
- When the tool needs a certain debuginfo, it will contact the
|
||
|
|
=debuginfod= server (specified via the =DEBUGINFOD_URLS= shell
|
||
|
|
variable) and put a request for the debuginfo's =Build-ID=.
|
||
|
|
#+BEAMER: \pause
|
||
|
|
- If found, the server will then transmit the information over HTTP(S)
|
||
|
|
to the client.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* How do I use it?

- You can configure your system by doing:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#+ATTR_LATEX: :options frame=single
|
||
|
|
#+begin_src bash
|
||
|
|
export DEBUGINFOD_URLS="https://debuginfod.debian.net"
|
||
|
|
#+end_src
|
||
|
|
|

|
|
* Demo
|
||
|
|
- Fasten your seat belts, please.
