[comp.sys.apollo] Saving

daven@mentorg.com (David Nilsen) (02/07/91)

Does anyone know if it's feasible to save/restore a running programs
memory on an Apollo machine.  I believe the GNU Emacs Apollo version
has an "unexec" module distributed with it, but it doesn't appear to
do everything I want.

What I'd like to do is be able to save the entire core image of an
executing program (minus the binary) and then be able to restore it.
It should also work with shared libraries (!!).  Restoring open file
descriptors, installed signal handlers, etc. would be nice, but not
necessary.
