Hi. It's not clear from the description that this is a largefile problem. As an experiment, what happens if you build with CFLAGS="-g -O2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE" ? [not all of these macros may be necessary, configure should be defining _FILE_OFFSETS_BITS=64, THIS IS JUST AN EXPERIMENT] > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of > Jan Kratochvil > Sent: Friday, October 17, 2014 4:56 AM > To: Andreas Arnez > Cc: Discussion list for crash utility usage, maintenance and development; GDB > Development > Subject: Re: gdb on KDUMP files > > On Fri, 17 Oct 2014 13:24:01 +0200, Andreas Arnez wrote: >> > 4.
