Two scritps are used to generate the reports
- src/run
- src/backtrace
src/run
is a wrapper, it is responsible for connecting to a set of remote hosts, executing src/backtrace
and emailing a crash report.
src/backtrace
checks for new core files since it last ran, it uses gdb to collect a backtrace, and then marks the corefile to exclude it from a subsequent request from the runner.
