kill -3 didn't generate core file on centos5
Hi,
I tried "kill -3 <pid>", but no core file was generated. I tried "kill -6 <pid>" or "kill -11 <pid>", these two all generated core files, but the process were killed. So I think my other setting should be fine, including ulimit, core_pattern... I don't know why "kill -3 <pid>" didn't generate core file. I need this because I need the core file. After I invoke "kill -3 <pid>", the process was still running when I checked using "ps -ef" Code:
[ipbx@lab33 ~]$ ~/testS& Code:
[ipbx@lab33 ~]$ uname -a 3rock |
Check your ulimits - (ulimit -cH) to see what your limits are. Likely it is set to 0.
goobered - you can get core dumps. signal 3 is SIGQUIT, so it exits without dumping. signal 6 is SIGABRT, which calls for a core dump. If the process catches signals, then it can choose to ignore some, or do specific things for that signal. this holds true for all signals except SIGKILL (9). |
