I'm using this system call in an application and noticed that's marked as deprecated now. My application collects all kind of information from crashing programs. It's installed in /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern.
If program X is crashing it executes get_robust_list(X) to get the address of the robust list and reads the list from /proc/X/mem.
Is there another way to get the robust list from another program (by it's pid)?
