动态二进制翻译系统的调试器框架

Debugger Framework on Dynamic Binary Translation System

传统的动态二进制翻译系统缺少调试器支持或者调试功能有限,随着开发规模的扩大,调试手段成为制约设计开发进度的瓶颈。该文提出一种针对动态二进制翻译系统的调试器框架,引入观察点、回退执行与调试脚本3个功能,通过在Crossbit平台上的验证,证明该技术能够高效地帮助程序员发现错误,提高系统的开发进度。

Common dynamic binary translation system is lack of debugging tools or only provides primitive debugging supports, so debugging technology becomes the bottleneck of developing system software or large scale software. This paper introduces a new debugging technology on dynamic binary translation platform, including reverse executing, debugging script and other new concepts. The debugger implemented on Crossbit is proved that it reduces the time for developer to locate bugs sharply.
