Hi all, I'd like to get some opinion on this change: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/c/20499/
Right now, if you install VPP from packages and run it through systemd, it can be quite convoluted to get coredumps: - /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern must be correctly set - distro coredump handler (eg. Ubuntu Apport or system-coredump) must be correctly configured - core dumps must be enabled on VPP command line - core dumps size limit must be correctly configured when starting it through systemd The last one can be especially tricky for users as it is obviously not governed by 'ulimit -c' in user shell and /etc/security/limits.* can be superseded by systemd conf. So, I propose to set ulimit in VPP system unit file, so that it becomes slightly easier to enable coredump for VPP. The drawback could be to generate a lot of huge coredumps and fill the disk w/o the user noticing it, but I think most distro diable it system-wide anyway by default. Any thought? ben
