Abstract
An approach to providing multiple concurrently executing debugging sessions for a currently executing operating system. The approach involves providing one first debugging session for debugging the currently executing operating system. The first debugging session has read access and write access to the data of the currently executing operating system. The approach also involves providing one or more second debugging sessions for the currently executing operating system. Each of the second debugging sessions has read-only access to the data of the currently executing operating system. The second debugging sessions run simultaneously with the first debugging session if the second debugging sessions are started while the first debugging session is active. As a result, multiple users can simultaneously debug the currently executing operating system. A lock may be used to ensure that only the first debugging session has write access to the data. The lock may be shared between the various debugging sessions for the operating system.
