It is rebased to latest crash version. The arguments are in the form of ordered pair as you had mentioned. I have tested it with arm and armv8 ramdumps. Do we really need dump_ramdump_def ? As the dump is converted to kdump and we use the kdump flag in pc->flags, help -D and help -n works fine using kdump dump functions. Did I miss something ?

I will send you the link to arm64 ramdump in another email.
