After that change, while is still possible to ask GDB to ignore /proc/PID/coredump_filter using the 'set use-coredump-filter' command, there's no way to request it to dump regions marked with the VM_DONTDUMP flag ("dd" in /proc/PID/smaps"). This patch series implement the new 'set dump-excluded-mappings' command for GDB, and the "-a" argument for gcore, allowing the user to mimic the behavior of previous GDB versions. --- Changes since v2: - 1/5: Removed an empty line between command and definition of variable. - 5/5: Added a test case for 'set dump-excluded-mappings'. Sergio Lopez (5): Implement 'set dump-excluded-mappings' command Document new {set,show} dump-excluded-mappings commands. Implement "-a" command line option for gcore Document the new "-a" command line option for gcore Extend gdb.core/coredump-filter.exp to test dump-excluded-mappings. gdb/NEWS | 10 +++++++ gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo | 21 +++++++++++-- gdb/gcore.in | 47 +++++++++++++++++++----------- gdb/linux-tdep.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++- gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/coredump-filter.exp | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++-------- 5 files changed, 122 insertions(+), 32 deletions(-) -- 2.14.3
