RHBA-2009:0049 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
crash bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Lightspeed patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated crash packages are now available.
Description
Crash is a self-contained tool that can be used to investigate live
systems, kernel core dumps created from the netdump, diskdump and kdump
packages from Red Hat Linux, the mcore kernel patch offered by Mission
Critical Linux, or the LKCD kernel patch.
This updated package includes the following bug fix:
- The bt command displays a task's kernel-stack backtrace. When running
this command against an x86 Xen kernel vmcore, crash did not correctly
handle the transition from the IRQ stack back to the process stack, leading
to a segmentation fault. The version of crash provided with this advisory
contains a patch that corrects this issue, allowing users to analyze a
vmcore file from a system with an x86 Xen kernel.
All users of crash should upgrade to this updated package.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
