From 8603b6f58637ce196d68f7749633ea81af196d66 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleksandr Natalenko Date: Sat, 3 Sep 2022 08:43:30 +0200 Subject: core_pattern: add CPU specifier MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Statistically, in a large deployment regular segfaults may indicate a CPU issue. Currently, it is not possible to find out what CPU the segfault happened on. There are at least two attempts to improve segfault logging with this regard, but they do not help in case the logs rotate. Hence, lets make sure it is possible to permanently record a CPU the task ran on using a new core_pattern specifier.
