Ok, what do you do with your RT if there is a bug that you can never fix because you cant coredump to real storage? Throw it away, along with any work you put into making it run?Dru– Dru2024-12-21 02:14:45 +00:00Commented Dec 21, 2024 at 2:14

You fail to coredump if there is no storage - it is simply a debugging aid. When was the last time you analyzed a coredump from say your android phone ? Your wifi Router ? Your cars infotainment system ? It's simply not done in many embedded applications.stevea– stevea2024-12-21 19:41:00 +00:00Commented Dec 21, 2024 at 19:41

k, you're probably right; I don't embed much (but I'd bet you $50 there's some reason why you can get a coredump from: an android phone, a wifi Route, a car's infotainment system, a Cray, or an x86...)Dru– Dru2024-12-21 22:00:32 +00:00Commented Dec 21, 2024 at 22:00

You can't generally ; your wifi router, has no storage for a coredump so they are disallowed, by the kernel config. Your android phone may have log messages and an abbreviated 'tombstone' info and logs. . Coredumps can be useful for debugging APPS. You don't really need them for something like your router b/c you can't readily introduce new apps. Andoid app developers have a lot of debug tools besides coredump in the lab. Dumps might be useful for debugging an android app, but the Java engine logs will address 99.98% of the cases. I can't remember that last time I got a coredump.stevea– stevea2024-12-22 20:54:33 +00:00Commented Dec 22, 2024 at 20:54

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. shell-script), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
