  as in:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Deployment_Guide/ch-abrt.html

specifically, to manage core files? i would have thought judicious use
of "ulimit" would be the solution. others?

You could try minicoredumper:

https://linutronix.de/minicoredumper/

<quote>
    The minicoredumper project provides a program that handles the
    creation of core dump files on Linux. It can produce much smaller
    core dump files by making use of sparse files, compression, and
    allowing the user to configure what parts of the process memory
    image should be dumped.

There's even a slightly out of date meta-oe recipe:

http://cgit.openembedded.org/cgit.cgi/meta-openembedded/tree/meta-oe/recipes-kernel/minicoredumper/minicoredumper_1.0.2.bb?h=master


Oh and Ubuntu uses apport:

  already looking into that ... is it safe to say that RH's "abrt" is,
well, exclusive to RH?

  and pretty sure i asked this before ... is there some reasonable
equivalent to "sosreport" for OE?

For people who don't run Fedora, you might have better luck saying what
functionality you're after.
