Description of problem: without setting MakeCompatCore=yes (although CreateCoreBacktrace=yes is set) in /etc/abrt/plugins/CCpp.conf the abrt crash report includes the following files: abrt_version cgroup count event_log hostname limits open_fds package pkg_epoch pkg_release proc_pid_status runlevel uid var_log_messages analyzer cmdline dso_list executable kernel machineid os_info pid pkg_fingerprint pkg_vendor pwd time username architecture component environ global_pid last_occurrence maps os_release pkg_arch pkg_name pkg_version reason type uuid with compact core config the output includes also the core_backtrace file with the following output: # cat core_backtrace { "signal": 11 , "executable": "/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm" , "stacktrace": [ { "crash_thread": true , "frames": [ { "address": 140000363764479 , "build_id": "c3f28802314af4ee866bf8d2e1b506b7bbf34cf6" , "build_id_offset": 973567 , "function_name": "ppoll" , "file_name": "/usr/lib64/libc-2.17.so" } , { "address": 93963107712921 , "build_id": "250731da86353c7dda890a58874c5eb9137f95fc" , "build_id_offset": 6033305 , "function_name": "qemu_poll_ns" , "file_name": "/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm" } , { "address": 93963107716520 , "build_id": "250731da86353c7dda890a58874c5eb9137f95fc" , "build_id_offset": 6036904 , "function_name": "main_loop_wait" , "file_name": "/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm" } , { "address": 93963104510348 , "build_id": "250731da86353c7dda890a58874c5eb9137f95fc" , "build_id_offset": 2830732 , "function_name": "main" , "file_name": "/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm" } ] } ] } Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vdsm-4-20-12 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1.kill -SIGSEGV [vm-pid] 2.check /var/tmp/abrt/ output
After a discussion with qemu team even properly generated backtrace doesn't contain enough information about the crash. Also since RHEL 7.4 the generated crash dump doesn't contain guest memory dump, so the size should keep around 500MB. That's why we are going to change abrt configuration again to save complete core dump.
