Hi, In my setup, core file is not generated on specific scenario. Binary name: vpt if "vpt" is directly executed on shell, then core is generated for SIGSEGV scenario. if same "vpt" binary is spawned by some other binary by "execl()" then core file is not generated on receiving SIGSEGV. 1. root@R0:~# ulimit -c unlimited 2. root@R0:~# cat /etc/security/limits.conf | grep unlimited * soft core unlimited root@R0:~# SUCCESSFUL Scenario ----------------------------------- 3. If the binary is executed directly on shell prompt, then core file is generated when SIGSEGV is received. root@R0:~# /usr/share/pfe/vpt ..... .... Aborted (core dumped) root@R0:~# ls /var/volatile/crash/ core.vpt.1427885814.1008 root@R0:~# FAIL scenario ---------------------- 4. Core file is not generated for the same binary "vpt" if it is spawned by some other process. e;g binary_a ---> vpt .. // binary_a is spawning "vpt" using execl() root@R0:~# /usr/share/pfe/binary_a ..... .... Aborted (core dumped) root@R0:~# root@R0:~# ls /var/volatile/crash/ // No core file is generated. root@R0:~# Thanks Santosh -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
