什么是core dump？

Coredump叫做核心转储，它是进程运行时在突然崩溃的那一刻的一个内存快照。操作系统在程序发生异常而异常在进程内部又没有被捕获的情况下，会把进程此刻内存、寄存器状态、运行堆栈等信息转储保存在一个二进制文件里。

设置core dump文件大小，默认0，即不会生成core文件

   ulimit -c unlimited 

设置core dump文件的位置文件名格式，%e和%p会被替换成程序文件名以及进程ID。缺省情况下，内核在coredump时所产生的core文件放在与该程序相同的目录中，并且文件名固定为core。

 echo “data/coredump/core.%e.%p”> /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern

core文件调试

1. 编译加-g参数

2. gdb program core

手动生成core文件

程序卡死的时候，有时需要把卡死状态保持起来，生成core文件，然后慢慢分析。

gcore

usage:  gcore [-o filename] pid

gdb的generate-core-file命令

设置core文件路径

1.编辑环境配置文件，让shell启动时自动设置ulimit
2.更改core文件生成路径
3.sysctl配置生效
vi /etc/profile
ulimit -c unlimited > /dev/null 2>&1
vi /etc/sysctl.conf
kernel.core_uses_pid = 1
kernel.core_pattern=/tmp/core-%e-%p
sysctl -p /etc/sysctl.conf
