Hi,

I updated dumpread/dom0cut script to extract xendump-format domain or
elf-core-format hypervisor images from kdump whole-machine dump image.
Now it supports x86_64 dump image.

You can get it from following:

http://people.valinux.co.jp/~moriwaka/dumpread/libelf-0.2.0.tar.gz

xen wiki has short howto page for it:

Hi Kazuo,

Have you abandoned the idea of adding an ELF note (or some other
mechanism) for passing the "pfn_to_mfn_frame_list_list" mfn value
from the shared, per-domain, "arch_shared_info" structure(s)?

As we proved back in June with the xen vmcore that you sent me,
there would be no need for dom0cut since the xen vmcore could be
used unmodified.

I also wonder if it would be in any way possible to determine the
dom0 mfn value somehow without the xen-syms file?

Thanks,
  Dave
