kvm_mkdb - create kernel database
SYNOPSIS
kvm_mkdb [ file ] DESCRIPTION
Kvm_mkdb creates a
db(3) database in ``/var/run/kvm_vmunix.db'' which contains the
namelist of
file (or, by default, /vmunix).
Each symbol is stored with its name as the key and its associated
nlist structure as the data.
The kvm_nlist (3) library routines use this database.
The text string found at the location referenced by the symbol ``_version'' is stored as the data associated with the special key ``VERSION''.
