The branch main has been updated by mhorne: URL: https://cgit.FreeBSD.org/src/commit/?id=4dfc78e0e3bb096514455e9bb6cf63e46e84db13 commit 4dfc78e0e3bb096514455e9bb6cf63e46e84db13 Author: Ricardo Branco <rbranco@suse.de> AuthorDate: 2026-05-15 14:58:41 +0000 Commit: Mitchell Horne <mhorne@FreeBSD.org> CommitDate: 2026-05-28 16:20:30 +0000 crashinfo: Create core.txt.last symlink When saving a coredump, savecore(8) maintains .last symlinks for the info and vmcore artifacts, but not for the crashinfo text report. Make crashinfo(8) create the link, pointing at the current core.txt.<bounds> file. This makes /var/crash/core.txt.last track the same core dump as info.last and vmcore.last. [mhorne: I tweaked the submission, such that the link will be created as soon as the core.txt.X file is generated; not only after a successful report has been written.] Signed-off-by: Ricardo Branco <rbranco@suse.de> Reviewed by: mhorne MFC after: 1 week Pull Request: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/pull/2199 --- usr.sbin/crashinfo/crashinfo.sh | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/usr.sbin/crashinfo/crashinfo.sh b/usr.sbin/crashinfo/crashinfo.sh index 68115f09f9d4..87e5565b98e3 100755 --- a/usr.sbin/crashinfo/crashinfo.sh +++ b/usr.sbin/crashinfo/crashinfo.sh @@ -149,11 +149,13 @@ fi VMCORE=$CRASHDIR/vmcore.$DUMPNR INFO=$CRASHDIR/info.$DUMPNR FILE=$CRASHDIR/core.txt.$DUMPNR +LINK=$CRASHDIR/core.txt.last HOSTNAME=`hostname` if $BATCH; then echo "Writing crash summary to $FILE." exec > $FILE 2>&1 + ln -sf $FILE $LINK fi GDB=/usr/local/bin/gdb @@ -204,6 +206,7 @@ machine=$(gdb_command $KERNEL 'printf "%s", machine') if ! $BATCH; then echo "Writing crash summary to $FILE." exec > $FILE 2>&1 + ln -sf $FILE $LINK fi echo "$HOSTNAME dumped core - see $VMCORE"home | help
