* Add function core_dump_write_core_file(). It writes a core file for the current thread's team. The file format is similar to that of other OSs (i.e. ELF with PT_LOAD segments and a PT_NOTE segment), but most of the notes are Haiku specific (infos for team, areas, images, threads). More data will probably need to be added. * Add team flag TEAM_FLAG_DUMP_CORE, thread flag THREAD_FLAGS_TRAP_FOR_CORE_DUMP, and Team property coreDumpCondition, a condition variable available while a core dump is progress. A thread that finds its flag THREAD_FLAGS_TRAP_FOR_CORE_DUMP set before exiting the kernel to userland calls core_dump_trap_thread(), which blocks on the condition variable until the core dump has finished. We need the team's threads to stop so we can get their CPU state (and have a generally unchanging team state while writing the core file). * Add user debugger message B_DEBUG_WRITE_CORE_FILE. It causes core_dump_write_core_file() to be called for the team. * Dumping core as an immediate effect of a terminal signal has not been implemented yet, but that should be fairly straight forward. |

Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
Compiling Haiku
See ReadMe.Compiling.
Contributing
Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!

Contributing documentation
The main piece of documentation that still needs work are the API docs (found
in the tree at docs/user). Just find an undocumented class, write
documentation for it, and submit a patch.
