Dogtail
Dogtail builds on FC6 but doesn't run due to the frame buffer
changes not being pushed yet. Added tests but not checked in yet due
to playback bug
Progress on mind numbing script to walk the gui.
Hard part is how to handle changes to the gui.
Traveling salesman problem?
Dogtail bugs:
FC5/FC6 testing
Discussion on event loop semantics and the logistics of catching errors
in waitpid
libunwind
Not working completely correct for backtracing
Might be able to do backtrace from system call
Some upstream discussion, meanwhile also doing in-house parallel work
32/64
Most issues addressed
Need 32 on 64 testing. This might require infrastructure changes.
Upstream discussion of the syscall list continues
Coverage
Procedure to do coverage analysis for frysk is now documented.
Breakpoints
Can set breakpoints by address.
Discussion of where to hook into this functionality: command level,
ftrace, gui (probably only want high level breakpoints here)
Event Viewer
Progress continues on complex scrollbar. For example the google
finance widget which gives an overall view.
Discussion of time: absolute versus delta from a known event time.
Inlining
Strace
Java Gnome
No change
Disassembler
Similar to memory window just a different view and emphasis
