How to get Daemon to dump core on segfault
- 02-09-2006

Hi, I've built an embedded linux system that runs out of CompactFlash.
There are 4 daemon processes that handle the application-specific
functionality. For help with debugging, I'd like to configure the daemons
to dump core if there is a segfault. I can do this when running the daemon
in the foreground with 'ulimit -c unlimited'. Does anyone here know how to
configure this automatically? The daemons are started from init and the
rcS script (Busybox).
Any tips are appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
