[Crash-catcher] How to get identification of coredumps
by Zdenek Prikryl
Hi,
we want to be able to recognize duplicate crashes just from core dumps
without debuginfo installed. It's enough to recognize duplicates on particular
platform. That means that identification of core dumps of same crash have to be
same on x86, but they can be different for x86 and x86_64. The initial idea was
to compute a hash from memory offsets and then just compare the hashes.
Can anybody point us how to do this? I mean which libraries we can use for that
or what parts of core dump are important and how to get useful information from
them?
Any help would be welcome :-)
