From 1607f09c226d1378439c411baaaa020042750338 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mateusz Guzik Date: Sun, 5 Jun 2016 23:14:14 +0200 Subject: coredump: fix dumping through pipes MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The offset in the core file used to be tracked with ->written field of the coredump_params structure. The field was retired in favour of file->f_pos. However, ->f_pos is not maintained for pipes which leads to breakage. Restore explicit tracking of the offset in coredump_params. Introduce ->pos field for this purpose since ->written was already reused. Fixes: a00839395103 ("get rid of coredump_params->written").
