You may run crash in batchmode and grep for the expected string and do compare and fail if not as expected. For example # echo 'p linux_banner' | crash -s vmlinux vmcore | grep 'Linux version' # echo net | crash -s vmlinux vmcore # echo bt | crash -s vmlinux vmcore | grep "PID:.*TASK:.*CPU:.*COMMAND:.*bash" -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
