Work done during this week: * In Client side, modify usr.sbin/crashinfo to print the uname information in multiple lines rather than in a single one for easier scripting of the results (trivial change). Also, modify usr.sbin/crashreport to find and extract needed debugging information from a core.txt.X file (what is inspected when the full memory dump or minidump crash type is selected) and from a textdump.tar.X file (what is inspected when the textdump crash type is selected) and generate in both cases an XML based report. Fix a bug related to characters that have special meaning in XML by replacing them with predefined entity references. * In Server side, modify usr.sbin/crashreportd that now is written in Python. It is able to receive and perform some checks regarding the validity of the reports. Now I am working on how to implement the confirmation of the report from the submitter. For my tests I am using the SMTP server of Gmail because I could not setup correctly sendmail to send emails out of the local machine. In the future, I will set it up and it will need only one line of code to be changed and two to be removed. -- Tzanetos Balitsaris ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.
