For it to be used in this capacity, it must + be specified by the + kernel.core_pattern sysctl8 + setting. Systemd installs + /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf which + configures kernel.core_pattern to invoke + systemd-coredump. This file may be masked or + overriden to use a different setting following normal + sysctl.d5 rules. + + The behaviour of a specific program upon reception of a + signal is governed by a few factors which are described in detail + in core5. + In particular, the coredump will only be processed when the + related resource limits are high enough. For programs started by + systemd those may be set using + LimitCore= (see + systemd.exec5). + + + systemd-coredump will log the coredump + including a backtrace if possible, and store the core (contents of + process' memory contents) in an external file on disk in + /var/lib/systemd/coredump, or directly in + the journal. This behaviour may be modified using + coredump.conf5. + + Apart from the + journalctl1 + log viewer, + coredumpctl1 + may be used to list and extract coredumps. + + + + See Also + + coredump.conf5, + coredumpctl1, + systemd-journald.service8, + core5, + sysctl.d5, + systemd-sysctl.service8. + + + diff --git a/man/systemd-journald.service.xml b/man/systemd-journald.service.xml index 7db62d1b05..1f1a7f1ca2 100644 --- a/man/systemd-journald.service.xml +++ b/man/systemd-journald.service.xml @@ -248,6 +248,7 @@ journald.conf5, systemd.journal-fields7, sd-journal3, + systemd-coredump8, setfacl1, pydoc systemd.journal. -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
