Re: [Crash-utility] Question regarding crash usage on Xen Dom0 Kernel
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for your prompt response.
Crash is a good tool to me to understand kernel sub-system that I’m not familiar with.
Currently I’m working on some other work in Xen based environment, may revisit the issue
later.

Yep, however, I am working on more important stuff
right now and I do not know when crash fix for above
mentioned issue materialize. Though if you wish to
work on it go ahead. I am more than happy to review
relevant patch series.
