Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 1250337
Generate 'reason' file from dmesg log file
Last modified: 2016-11-03 23:06:11 EDT
If kdump generates the dmesg log file (vmcore-dmesg.log), the vmcore's post-create event doesn't generate 'reason' file. It is caused by inappropriate use of 'abrt-dump-oops' where the event uses that helper to parse the log file to generate 'backtrace' file instead of using it with the '-u' argument to update the dump directory and create all necessary files. Additional info: Easy fix, this upstream commit fixes the issue: https://github.com/abrt/abrt/commit/7800a01bd0d7fa6e53564fc4394f126f2042775f
