Description Jon Wilkes 2015-05-17 00:37:30 UTC 
For unknown reasons, the systemd-journal daemon crashed on my system.  However, I can't load the core file to see why.


$ dmesg | grep journal | grep core
[ 5040.792996] systemd-coredump[1353]: Detected coredump of the journal daemon itself, diverted to /var/lib/systemd/coredump/core.systemd-journal.0.917640dd85b441db9ad24fbe52f325c3.160.1431802085000000.lz4.

$ coredumpctl list | grep journal

$ cd /var/lib/systemd/coredump

$ ls -l core.systemd-journal.0.917640dd85b441db9ad24fbe52f325c3.1356.1431804973000000.lz4

Additionally, because of bug 83266, the core file can't be manually loaded using lz4 command line tools.

$ lz4 -d core.systemd-journal.0.917640dd85b441db9ad24fbe52f325c3.1356.1431804973000000.lz4

Error 44 : Unrecognized header : file cannot be decoded
