KernUtilities

KernUtilities is a suite of command-line utilities that provide a set of tools for various tasks related to kernel development, debugging, and testing. These utilities are designed to be used in conjunction with the Windows kernel, providing features and functionality that are required for kernel-mode driver development, debugging, and testing.

The KernUtilities suite includes a range of tools, each with its own specific functionality and purpose. Some of the tools in the KernUtilities suite include a system information display tool, a device tree viewer, a debug monitor, a trace logger, and a set of other diagnostic and debugging tools.

The KernUtilities suite is designed to be highly flexible and customizable, allowing developers to use the tools to suit their specific needs and testing scenarios. This is achieved through the use of command-line parameters and options, which enable users to tailor the behavior of each utility to suit their specific requirements.

One of the key benefits of KernUtilities is its ability to provide fine-grained control over kernel-mode testing and debugging. The tools in the KernUtilities suite allow developers to take a highly disciplined and methodical approach to testing and debugging their kernel-mode drivers, which can help to reduce the risk of errors and flaws in the code.

KernUtilities has been developed by the Kern utilities community, a collection of kernel developers and enthusiasts who share knowledge and resources to help advance the state of kernel development. While primarily focused on the Windows kernel, KernUtilities can potentially be used with other operating systems as well, though this will require significant adaptation and modification of the existing code.

It is worth noting that kernutilities is a free and open source software that is part of the Kern Utilities project.
