Simon Tatham	734ada9b57	gdb.py: add a 'memdump' command. This makes it easier for me to examine the contents of binary memory buffers, while debugging through code that does crypto or packet marshalling.	2018-06-09 14:20:33 +01:00
Simon Tatham	10a4f1156c	Add a GDB Python script to pretty-print Bignum. I've been playing around with GDB's Python scripting system recently, and this is a thing I've always thought it would be nice to be able to do: if you load this script (which, on Ubuntu 18.04's gdb, is as simple as 'source contrib/gdb.py' at the gdb prompt, or similar), then variables of type Bignum will be printed as (e.g.) 'Bignum(0x12345)', or 'Bignum(NULL)' if they're null pointers, or a fallback representation if they're non-null pointers but gdb can't read anything sensible from them.	2018-06-04 19:10:57 +01:00

This makes it easier for me to examine the contents of binary memory
buffers, while debugging through code that does crypto or packet
marshalling.

Add a GDB Python script to pretty-print Bignum.

I've been playing around with GDB's Python scripting system recently,
and this is a thing I've always thought it would be nice to be able to
do: if you load this script (which, on Ubuntu 18.04's gdb, is as
simple as 'source contrib/gdb.py' at the gdb prompt, or similar), then
variables of type Bignum will be printed as (e.g.) 'Bignum(0x12345)',
or 'Bignum(NULL)' if they're null pointers, or a fallback
representation if they're non-null pointers but gdb can't read
anything sensible from them.
