Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and method for generating a guest Operating System (OS) crash dump. In one aspect, an exemplary method comprises, obtaining information about a guest physical memory and a state of a guest CPU, determining guest page tables including a data structure for mapping between the guest physical memory and guest virtual pages using registers of the guest CPU, identifying an interrupt handler and determining an address of the interrupt handler using the guest page tables and the registers of guest CPU, finding a location of a kernel image in memory by scanning virtual addresses backward starting from the interrupt handler until a beginning of an executable kernel module is found, identifying and fetching debug symbols, determining system task descriptors using the debug symbols, determining debugger relevant data using the debug symbols, and generating the crash dump header using the system task descriptors and the debugger relevant data.
