       Initializing new dump: connect to UNIX domain socket
       /var/run/abrt.socket

       Providing data (writting data to the socket):

           -> "POST / HTTP/1.1\r\n"
           -> "\r\n"
           -> "type=string\0"
              string, maximum length 100 bytes
           -> "reason=string\0"
              string, maximum length 512 bytes
           -> "pid=number\0"
              number, 0 - PIDMAX (/proc/sys/kernel/pidmax)
           -> "executable=string\0"
              string, maximum length ~MAXPATH
           -> "backtrace=string\0"
              string, maximum length 1 MB
           -> (close writing half of the socket)
