Subject: [PATCH 3/3] gcore: fix memory allocation failure during processing
NT_AUXV note
For crash dumps generated using kernel-4.18.0-365.el8 or later on
CentOS stream 8, crash gcore command fails as follows:
crash> gcore -v 7 -f 128 10604
gcore: Opening file core.10604.test-dumpfilter ...
gcore: done.
gcore: Writing ELF header ...
gcore: done.
gcore: Retrieving and writing note information ...
gcore: zero-size memory allocation! (called from 7fd558ce1e05)
Failed.
This memory allocation failure occurs in fill_auxv_note() that creates
NT_AUXV note due to saved_auxv entries of size and offset tables are
somehow 0.
This is because during the merge of the upstream kernel commit
1c33bb0507508af24fd754dd7123bd8e997fab2f (x86/elf: Support a new ELF
aux vector AT_MINSIGSTKSZ), location of saved_auxv of struct mm_struct
has been moved as workaround in order to avoid kABI breakage.
Fix this by using RHEL-specific location for saved_auxv if there is
member rh_reserved_saved_auxv in struct mm_struct.
