Hello,
I'm trying to setup an analyze procedure (with scripts) and would like to
'check' the dumpfile before starting the interactive mode of 'crash'.
Is there a 'crash' option, command that would just :
* Return a status to say 'dumpfile is OK to be processed by crash'.
* Display a header that I could parse.
* Or ?
Or should I grab directly in the dumpfile (Hmm... kdump-compressed seems not to be easy to
parse) ?
More possibilities with an ELF formatted dumpfile ?
Thanks.
Best regards,
Patrick Agrain

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"

This should need to finish session initialization, and
Display a header that I could parse.
"help -D" command displays the dumpfile's header.
So I think the exit status and output of this might help, but it takes
some time as you know.
$ echo 'help -D' | crash -s vmlinux vmcore

Hello,
Thanks for pointing that.
'help -D' is a good entry point .
