[Crash-utility] About the use of 'gcore'

Hello all, Now that we have dumped the kernel stack, I'm intesresting in the user process from which we came just before the 'panic'. Googling around, I found mention of the 'gcore' extension. I compiled version 1.22 and installed it. Using it on crash 6.1.0-1.el6, I get a file core.845.bash on process 'bash' (in which I trigger a kernel panic) : crash> gcore -v 1 845 gcore: Opening file core.845.bash ... gcore: done. gcore: Writing ELF header ... gcore: done. gcore: Retrieving and writing note information ... gcore: done. gcore: Writing PT_NOTE program header ... gcore: done. gcore: Writing PT_LOAD program headers ... gcore: done. gcore: Writing PT_LOAD segment ... gcore: PT_LOAD[0]: 8048000 - 8048000 gcore: PT_LOAD[1]: 80e2000 - 80e9000 gcore: PT_LOAD[2]: 80e9000 - 80ed000 gcore: PT_LOAD[3]: 94a2000 - 94d1000 gcore: PT_LOAD[4]: b7374000 - b7374000 gcore: PT_LOAD[5]: b7375000 - b7376000 gcore: PT_LOAD[6]: b7376000 - b7377000 gcore: PT_LOAD[7]: b7377000 - b7377000 gcore: PT_LOAD[8]: b737e000 - b737e000 gcore: PT_LOAD[9]: b737f000 - b737f000 gcore: PT_LOAD[10]: b73bb000 - b73bb000 gcore: PT_LOAD[11]: b75bb000 - b75bb000 gcore: PT_LOAD[12]: b75c7000 - b75c8000 gcore: PT_LOAD[13]: b75c8000 - b75c9000 gcore: PT_LOAD[14]: b75c9000 - b75ca000 gcore: PT_LOAD[15]: b75ca000 - b75ca000 gcore: PT_LOAD[16]: b7756000 - b7758000 gcore: PT_LOAD[17]: b7758000 - b7759000 gcore: PT_LOAD[18]: b7759000 - b775c000 gcore: PT_LOAD[19]: b775c000 - b775c000 gcore: PT_LOAD[20]: b775f000 - b7760000 gcore: PT_LOAD[21]: b7760000 - b7761000 gcore: PT_LOAD[22]: b7761000 - b7761000 gcore: PT_LOAD[23]: b7764000 - b7765000 gcore: PT_LOAD[24]: b7769000 - b776a000 gcore: PT_LOAD[25]: b776a000 - b776b000 gcore: PT_LOAD[26]: b776b000 - b776b000 gcore: PT_LOAD[27]: b7789000 - b778a000 gcore: PT_LOAD[28]: b778a000 - b778b000 gcore: PT_LOAD[29]: bfd07000 - bfd1d000 gcore: done. Saved core.845.bash crash> So far, so good... But Question: Are there anywhere some hints about how to use this core.<pid> file ? Thanks in advance. Regards, Patrick Agrain
