I had two replies so far 1. from - Mike Shapiro 2. James C. McPherson Those two replies did not appear in this forum( I don't know why). I will just include those replies here for the benefit of others.
Replies from the above folks cannot be afforded to be missed for anyone trying to understand Solaris kernel/mdb. --- from Mike Are you debugging the core file on the same machine where it was created or on a different machine? I ask because one possibility here is that if you are you're seeing the wrong text: prior to Solaris 10, text sections from executables and shared libraries were not included in core files and thus you can get mismatches if you are not careful about patch revisions, etc. If that isn't the issue, then let us know and I can explain how to look at the siginfo_t and see what is going on. -Mike ---- From James C. McPherson Ashok, what is the stack trace when you run $C or ::findstack (or pstack /path/to/core for that matter). That will give you a better idea of what happened. James C. McPherson ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- my response Mike The debugging was done on the same systems where the process core dumped James, I don't have access to system now. I will post the stacktrace as soon as I get on it. Thanks This message posted from opensolaris.org
