Loading a KASLR-Enabled Linux* Kernel

To load a Linux* kernel where kernel address space layout randomization (KASLR) is enabled, follow the steps below:

1. Halt the target.

2. Select a desired hardware thread in the Debug view.

3. Expand the drop-down menu of the Load the Current Module button and select Load a KASLR-Enabled Linux Kernel.

4. In the dialog box, add the path to the vmlinux file and click the OK button.

5. Launch the ISD Shell and check the error messages to determine possible issues.

   If the KASLR-Enabled Linux* Kernel was added successfully, the shell returns a corresponding message.

You can also load a KASLR-Enabled Linux* Kernel by calling the following function:

threads[N].load_kernel_modules(vmlinux_path="<vmlinux_path>")

where

• N is the ordinal number of a hardware thread

• vmlinux_​path is the path to the vmlinux file

Example

threads[0].load_kernel_modules(vmlinux_path="my_vmlinux")
