############################################################################## # BSD SPECIFIC OPTIONS # Kernel core dump options for FreeBSD kernel. # Unless you're a FreeBSD kernel developer or driver writer then this won't # be of any interest to you at all. # The following options allow to configure the kernel's core dump # facilities. Please read # http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html # for more information about Kernel core dumps and kernel debugging. # KERNEL_DUMP_DEVICE variable is used to specify which device will be # used by the kernel to write the dump down. This has to be a swap # partition, and has to be at least big enough to contain the whole # physical memory (see hw.physmem sysctl(8) variable). # When the variable is commented out, no core dump will be enabled for # the kernel. #KERNEL_DUMP_DEVICE="/dev/ad0s1b" # KERNEL_DUMP_DIR variable is used to tell savecore(8) utility where # to save the kernel core dump once it's restored from the dump # device. If unset, /var/crash will be used, as the default of # FreeBSD. #KERNEL_DUMP_DIR="/var/crash" # KERNEL_DUMP_COMPRESS variable decide whether to compress with # gzip(1) the dump or leave it of its original size (the size of the # physical memory present on the system). If set to yes, the -z option # will be passed to savecore(8) that will proceed on compressing the # dump. #KERNEL_DUMP_COMPRESS="no"
