Subject: [PATCH] core_pattern: Add ability for core_pattern to parse arguments when pattern is a pipe
Hey-
Currently, core dumps can be redirected to a pipe by placing the
following string template in /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern:
|<path/to/application>
This patch extends this ability, allowing the core_pattern to contain arguments
to be passed as an argv array to the userspace helper application. It also add
a format specifier, %c, which allows the RLIM_CORE value of the crashing
application to be passed on the command line, since RLIMIT_CORE is reduced to
zero when execing the userspace helper
Tested successfully by me on x86 & x86_64.
Regards
Neil
