SOSEX mdt command wrong output


I found quite strange issue with sosex !mdt command.

I was investigating crash memory dump and was checking the value of System.Web.EtwTrace class static field using !mdt command:

!mdt System.Web.EtwTrace

[s]_traceLevel: int

...

AppDomain '/LM/W3SVC/2/ROOT-1-130489393569613986' (00000000021a2d50): 0x0000000000000000

I decided to doublecheck the value using !DumpClass SOS command:

!DumpClass 000007feec7ddbb8

Class Name: System.Web.EtwTrace

....

shared static _traceLevel 6

Looks like a bug in SOSEX, has anybody faced same issue ?


Solution

  • Coudn't set up an EtwTrace quickly. It seems to work for my own class at least:

    0:000> !name2ee EtwTraceDebug EtwTraceDebug.Program
