Description

dbg_dmp offers a way to dump the state of a domain in a human-readable format

an extension can be created which dumps the state into a machine-readable format (say json) and can then restore it

It can be useful for debugging, a minidump of sorts:

  • Pointers must be turned into ids so pointers can be disambiguated but not bound to a run

Research direction

Start by reading the existing dbg_dmp entry point and its extension mechanism. Define a machine-readable format that can dump and restore domain state, including stable IDs for pointers; done means a dumped state can be restored without binding those IDs to a particular run.
