I am new with CentOs, and more familiar with small linux kernel Sdk. I would like to ask if it is possible to kernel debug ( and kernel module debug in particular) CentOs kernel module, and how ? I am using I7 Intel architrecture.
You can install the kernel-debug package with the same version of the kernel that you are debugging, it’ll contain a vmlinux built the same as the non-debug version, just with the debugging symbols included.
If one wants debugging information it's the "kernel-debuginfo" you should install. kernel-debug is a kernel built with different config (lots of debugging enabled). It will be a quite different experience.. (most notably slower).
