Since the ps command handles signals with it's own handler, it doesn't create core files when something wrong happens. The attached patch restores the ps command ability to create core files by calling the default handler once we print our custom message. The original RH's workaround masked SIGABRT and SIGSEGV signals and that would conflict with the original intention of the custom signal handler and also with the filtering patch I sent in my previous email. Moreover, this solution generates core for all relevant signals (SIGFPE, etc.).

COMPATIBILITY This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and hopefully all future kernels. INSTALLATION If you are using git version of the project you need extra step. ./autogen.sh After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for your needs. ./configure make make install If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite. make check HOW TO CONTRIBUTE See Documentation/BUGS file. PACKAGING If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section applies to you. Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not included. Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via email without need for an account. For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags to the CFLAGS variable.
