Subject: [patch 2.6.28-rc2] CORE_DUMP_DEFAULT_ELF_HEADERS depends on ELF_CORE
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2008 15:59:50 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200810301559.50467.david-b@pacbell.net> (raw)
From: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
Kernels that don't support ELF coredumps at all surely can't
be supporting new partial-segment flavored ELF coredumps ...
don't make folk answer Kconfig questions about that flavor.

ELF core dump files describe each memory mapping of the crashed
process, and can contain or omit the memory contents of each one.
