Thanks for the cleanups, this is certainly now in the right direction. Generic long term growth questions below.

The notes section quickly reaches its capacity, I'm not well versed here on how core dumps associate mmaps to ELF notes section, can you elaborate? Does each new mmap potentially peg information on ELF notes section? Where do we standardize on this? Does it also change depending on any criteria of the mmap? Depending on the above, we might want to be proactive to get a sense of when we want to go beyond the new 16 MiB max cap on new mmaps for instance. How many mmaps can we have anyway too? > leading to incomplete memory segment information in the resulting coredump. > This truncation compromises the utility of the coredumps, as crucial > information about the memory state at the time of the crash might be > omitted.
