[PATCH 2/4] coredump: enable to omit anonymous shared memory

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch enables to omit anonymous shared memory from a core file
when it is generated.

If you don't want to dump shared memory segments of <pid> process,
set the bit 0 of the /proc/<pid>/core_flags to 1.

  $ echo 1 > /proc/<pid>/core_flags


The debug messages from maydump() in fs/binfmt_elf_fdpic.c are changed
appropriately so that we can know what kind of memory segments are
dumped or not.
