Description:
The core analysis suite is a self-contained tool that can be used to

offered by Mission Critical Linux, or the LKCD kernel patch.

Packages

crash-4.0-8.9.1.el5.ia64 [2.5 MiB] Changelog by Dave Anderson (2009-06-11):
- Fix for running "foreach bt" on a live system, where a backtrace that
  is attempted on a task that no longer exists may cause a segmentation
  violation due to the use of stale/invalid kernel stack pointer.
- Resolves: rhbz#504796
crash-4.0-7.2.3.el5.1.ia64 [2.6 MiB] Changelog by Dave Anderson (2009-01-13):
Fix for a "bt" command segmentation violation by correctly
  handling the transition from the IRQ stack back to the process
  stack running when running against a Xen kernel.
- Resolves: rhbz#479810
crash-4.0-7.2.3.ia64 [2.6 MiB] Changelog by Dave Anderson (2008-09-25):
Fix for the incomplete resolution for the "search -k" option when 
  run on RHEL5 ia64 CONFIG_SPARSEMEM kernels.  The initial fix
  addressed the segmentation violation, but on certain physical 
  memory configurations, it would prematurely bail out when making
  the transition from the kernel mapped region to the vmalloc region.
- Resolves: rhbz#458417
