And make an effort to propagate errors out from the inner parts.
This fixes an issue where the kernel would infinitely loop in coredump
generation if the TmpFS filled up.
Problem:
- `(void)` simply casts the expression to void. This is understood to
indicate that it is ignored, but this is really a compiler trick to
get the compiler to not generate a warning.
Solution:
- Use the `[[maybe_unused]]` attribute to indicate the value is unused.
Note:
- Functions taking a `(void)` argument list have also been changed to
`()` because this is not needed and shows up in the same grep
command.
LexicalPath is a big and heavy class that's really meant as a helper
for extracting parts of a path, not for storage or passing around.
Instead, pass paths around as strings and use LexicalPath locally
as needed.
When a process crashes, we generate a coredump file and write it in
/tmp/coredumps/.
The coredump file is an ELF file of type ET_CORE.
It contains a segment for every userspace memory region of the process,
and an additional PT_NOTE segment that contains the registers state for
each thread, and a additional data about memory regions
(e.g their name).
