Currently, even though memory is mapped with PROT_NONE, this does not cause it to be excluded from core dumps. This is counter-productive, because in a lot of cases, this memory will go unused (e.g. when the memory subsystem preallocates VA space but hasn't yet mapped physical pages into it). Use `madvise()` call with MADV_DONTDUMP/MADV_NOCORE to exclude the unused memory from being dumped. Signed-off-by: Li Feng <fengli@smartx.com> Acked-by: Anatoly Burakov <anatoly.burakov@intel.com>
