[PATCH 2/2] check: collect core dumps from systemd-coredump

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

 



From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>

On modern RHEL (>=8) and Debian KDE systems, systemd-coredump can be
installed to capture core dumps from crashed programs.  If this is the
case, we would like to capture core dumps from programs that crash
during the test.  Set up an (admittedly overwrought) pipeline to extract
dumps created during the test and then capture them the same way that we
pick up "core" and "core.$pid" files.
