Writing Debugger Commands

MDB provides a powerful API for implementing new debugger facilities that you can use to debug your driver. The Solaris Modular Debugger Guide explains the programming API in more detail, and the SUNWmdbdm package installs sample MDB source code in the directory /usr/demo/mdb. You can use MDB to automate lengthy debugging chores or help to validate that your driver is behaving properly. You can also package your MDB debugging modules with your driver product so that these facilities will be available to service personnel at a customer site.
