Simple script to extract linux kernel struct sizes.
Since this script is extremely simple, I may not put it on Pypi.
Dependencies:
- python3
- elftools(for extracting DWARF info from image)
You also need a kernel image compiled with struct info, since default kernel debug info is at default level, you need to do something manually.
As for me, I searched -g across global kernel Makefile at the root of linux source tree
and edited it to -g3 to generate struct info as well.
When you finished compile, you'll get a kernel image with struct type info in it. Now the script is on. Run it like this:
python extract_kernel_size.py vmlinux sizes.db
Note that sizes.db contains the output sqlite3 database, and it must not exist.
