hi everyone,
Right now when I do:
strcmp(s1, s2);
i get a core dump because at times s1 or s2 can be nothing so that makes strcmp() core dump.
What is the solution, if at times I expect one of them (or both) to be NULL?
I want to be able to compare that s1 is NULL and s2 is "blah" or... (6 Replies)

Hi,
Can we modify the GDB source code so as to analyze core dumps from different targets? From my analysis, I think we need to build our section table statically for each target. i.e., including the various address boundaries in build_section_table() function. If this is the case, then the GDB... (2 Replies)

i had a situation where a process was defunct. preap would not reap the process and gcore would not work properly (not sure why). therefore, the suggestion was to force a panic and collect the core dump. obviously you could do a savecore -L and capture the dump without bringing down the system....

CORE(5) BSD File Formats Manual CORE(5)
NAME
core -- memory image file format
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/param.h>
DESCRIPTION
A small number of signals which cause abnormal termination of a process also cause a record of the process's in-core state to be written to
disk for later examination by one of the available debuggers. (See sigaction(2).) This memory image is written to a file named by default
core.pid in the /cores directory; provided the terminated process had write permission in the directory, and the directory existed.
The maximum size of a core file is limited by setrlimit(2). Files which would be larger than the limit are not created.
The core file consists of the ~ Mach-O(5) header as described in the <mach-o/loader.h> file. The remainder of the core file consists of
various sections described in the Mach-O(5) header.
NOTE
Core dumps are disabled by default under Darwin/Mac OS X. To re-enable core dumps, a privlaged user must edit /etc/hostconfig to contain the
line:
COREDUMPS=-YES-

A core file format appeared in Version 6 AT&T UNIX.
