Hi,
I cannot think of a way; on the other hand, I don't think disabling the
core dump is necessary either. Simply filtering out '(core dumped) ' is
not pretty but still suffices for me (we can put that into a filter
function in common.filter and if other people see other messages for a
core dump, they can expand that list).
If we really want to disable core dumps, we should change qemu-io not to
use abort() on -c abort (raise(SIGKILL) seems like a good alternative to
me); or, alternatively, introduce a new command 'kill' which then does
raise(SIGKILL) so we don't have to break compatibility.
