RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: docker-1.8.2-9.el7
Doc Type: Release Note
Doc Text:
docker now supports the DWARF debug symbols The DWARF debug symbols are now included in the docker binaries. Previously, without the DWARF info, the ability to analyze Docker core files was very limited. This update makes debugging docker significantly easier. Additionally, DWARF is now also supported by the `kubernetes`, `etcd` and `flannel` packages.

Description James W. Mills 2015-11-10 21:21:32 UTC 
Description of problem:

debug symbols are currently not included in docker binaries, and we are unable to strip debug symbols into *debug packages (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1236317).

Without DWARF debug info, GSS is unable to analyze docker core files.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

All versions of docker

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. generate a docker corefile
2. open the core file up in gdb

Actual results:

No real usable information can be obtained

Expected results:

docker core can be analyzed as effectively as any other core file.

Additional info:

The progress that led to this BZ can be tracked in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1225093
Comment 5 Alex Jia 2015-11-20 10:31:21 UTC 
To run debuginfo-install docker and sqlite then use gdb attach PID of docker and generate a core file for gdb debugging, the result as follows.

# gdb attach `pidof docker`

<slice>

NOTES: it still shows "Missing separate debuginfos, use: debuginfo-install docker-1.8.2-10.el7.x86_64", but in fact, No debuginfo packages available to install.

@Lokesh, is it enough testing for you? if so, I will close the bug as VERIFIED status.
Comment 14 Chris Evich 2015-12-02 16:42:24 UTC 
Anyone know if we have QE/CI Automation in place to test for this in docker builds?

If so, then I'll delete https://trello.com/c/R11qqosC :D
