[Bug 1153662] Re: Core file not created on SIGQUIT
This bug was fixed in the package apport - 2.9.2-0ubuntu1 --- apport (2.9.2-0ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low * New upstream release: - report.py, add_package_info(): Add "[origin: unknown]" tag to Package/Dependencies fields for non-distro package whose origin cannot be determined. (LP: #1148116) - Adjust kernel_crashdump to the format kdump-tools produces. Thanks Louis Bouchard. - Write core dumps on SIGQUIT if ulimit allows. Thanks Graeme Hewson. (LP: #1153662) * debian/apport.upstart: Also check for kdump-tools-style kernel crash reports for calling kernel_crashdump. Thanks Louis Bouchard. -- Martin PittTue, 19 Mar 2013 11:48:27 +0100 ** Changed in: apport (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1153662 Title: Core file not created on SIGQUIT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1153662/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1153662] Re: Core file not created on SIGQUIT
The specified core limit ends up getting multiplied by 1024*1024, though. Testing with your patch applied, ulimit 10 should be small enough to prevent this core file being written, but it is written: $ shopt -o posix posix off $ ulimit -c 10 $ sleep 99 ^\Quit (core dumped) $ ls -l core; rm core -rw-r- 1 ghewson ghewson 372736 Mar 14 18:06 core $ cat /var/log/apport.log ERROR: apport (pid 10975) Thu Mar 14 18:06:05 2013: called for pid 10972, signal 3, core limit 10240 ERROR: apport (pid 10975) Thu Mar 14 18:06:05 2013: writing core dump to /tmp/core (limit: 10485760) --- 10485760 = 10 * 1024 * 1024 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1153662 Title: Core file not created on SIGQUIT To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1153662/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1153662] Re: Core file not created on SIGQUIT
We do need to multiply the kernel's ulimit (which is in blocks) by 1024, but indeed the old place was bad as it contradicted the comments. I moved it in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~apport- hackers/apport/trunk/revision/2610 .
