Crashupload component helps to upload coredump and minidump files (crashes) that happened in the STBs to the crash portal server.
The crash portal processes these crash dumps and logs and provides a meaningful backtrace.
Whenever the crash happens STB will create a minidump file with ".dmp" extention at configured path(for ex: /minidumps/).
Then this dump file will be converted into tar file before getting uploaded to the RDK crash portal.
This tar file has a naming convention as build-id_mac_date_box<type_device-model_dumpfilenumber.dmp.tgz.
It is possible to download this "*.dmp.tgz" file directly from the RDK crash portal using MAC address of the device and filters to see minidump report and to download this file.
It contains dump file and some log files like version.txt and core_log.txt.
The RDK crash portal url at which dump file gets upload can be configured in uploadDumps.sh script file in the box.
