The book contains the full Software Diagnostics Services training transcript and 10 step-by-step exercises and covers dozens of crash dump analysis patterns from the x64 process and complete (physical) memory dumps. Learn how to analyze Rust application crashes and freezes, navigate through memory dump space, and diagnose heap corruption, memory leaks, CPU spikes, blocked threads, deadlocks, wait chains, and much more with the WinDbg debugger. The training uses a unique and innovative pattern-oriented analysis approach developed by the Software Diagnostics Institute to speed up the learning curve, and it is structurally based on the latest 6th revised edition of the bestselling Accelerated Windows Memory Dump Analysis book with the focus on safe and unsafe Rust code and its interfacing with the Windows OS. The training is useful whether you come to Rust from C and C++ or interpreted languages like Python, and facilitates memory thinking when programming in Rust.
