DESCRIPTIONcoredump_write() is used by both machine-dependent and machine-indepen‐

opaque pointer that was supplied to the caller of coredump_write().
segflg indicates where the data is located, system space or user space.
data points to the information to be written to the coredump. len is the
amount of data to be written.
coredump_write() returns 0 on success and an appropriate error code on
failure.
