Probably ia64 specific code would be necessarry for it.
This will be addressed as post-3.0.4 effort and the format will be changed.
I'm not sure exactly what the ramifications are of an ia64 "xm dump-core"
on a paravirtualized kernel. It would seem to depend upon what, if anything,
was "active" at the time.
The problems here is no ramification.
"xm dump-core" command on ia64 or domU panic create something
with x86-dump code, however no one has verfied the resulted file
deeply yet.
Anyway in the near feature, xendump format would be revised into elf format
and its implemenation would be rewritten.
The ia64 would need to "jump through the hoop" of a call
to
unw_init_running() before it calls HYPERVISOR_shutdown()
Is the attached patch what you want?
