10 /* Core file format: The core file is written in such a way that gdb
11 can understand it and provide useful information to the user (under
12 linux we use the 'trad-core' bfd). There are quite a number of
13 obstacles to being able to view the contents of the floating point
14 registers, and until these are solved you will not be able to view the
15 contents of them. Actually, you can read in the core file and look at
16 the contents of the user struct to find out what the floating point
18 The actual file contents are as follows:
19 UPAGE: 1 page consisting of a user struct that tells gdb what is present
20 in the file. Directly after this is a copy of the task_struct, which
21 is currently not used by gdb, but it may come in useful at some point.
22 All of the registers are stored as part of the upage. The upage should
23 always be only one page.
24 DATA: The data area is stored. We use current->end_text to
25 current->brk to pick up all of the user variables, plus any memory
26 that may have been malloced. No attempt is made to determine if a page
27 is demand-zero or if a page is totally unused, we just cover the entire
28 range. All of the addresses are rounded in such a way that an integral
29 number of pages is written.
30 STACK: We need the stack information in order to get a meaningful
31 backtrace. We need to write the data from (esp) to
32 current->start_stack, so we round each of these off in order to be able
33 to write an integer number of pages.
34 The minimum core file size is 3 pages, or 12288 bytes.
