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.
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #832085 +++
Description of problem:
Including executable filename in coredump dumpfile pattern name only produces a "e" in place of the filename.
The problem stems from this line in /usr/sbin/abrt-install-ccpp-hook:
if test x"${cur#.*%e}" = x"${cur}"; then
which should have been:
if test x"${cur#*%e}" = x"${cur}"; then
'.*' is regexp for matching all but bash variable expansion uses shell expansion where '*' matches all. abrt-install-ccpp-hook only works correct on %e if /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern starts with '.'.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
abrt-addon-ccpp-2.0.10-4.fc17.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Stop abrt-ccpp.service
2. Set core_pattern to core.%e
3. Start abrt-ccpp.service
4. Make a coredump
Actual results:
# systemctl stop abrt-ccpp.service
# echo "core.%e" >/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
# systemctl start abrt-ccpp.service
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
|/usr/libexec/abrt-hook-ccpp %s %c %p %u %g %t e
# ulimit -c unlimited
# cat &
[1] 8487
# kill -11 %1
[1]+ Stopped cat
# fg
cat
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
# ls -l core*
-rw------- 1 root root 376832 Jun 14 15:27 core.e
Expected results:
# systemctl stop abrt-ccpp.service
# echo "core.%e" >/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
# systemctl start abrt-ccpp.service
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
|/usr/libexec/abrt-hook-ccpp %s %c %p %u %g %t %e
# ulimit -c unlimited
# cat &
[1] 8487
# kill -11 %1
