Re: [Crash-utility] x86 remap allocator in kernel 3.0

Ken'ichi Ohmichi, please note that makedumpfile is also affected by this deficiency. On my test system, it will fail to produce any output if I set dump level to anything greater than zero: makedumpfile -c -d 31 -x vmlinux-3.0.13-0.5-pae.debug vmcore kdump.31 readmem: Can't convert a physical address(34a012b4) to offset. readmem: type_addr: 0, addr:f4a012b4, size:4 get_mm_discontigmem: Can't get node_start_pfn. makedumpfile Failed. However, fixing this for makedumpfile is harder, and it will most likely require a few more lines in VMCOREINFO, because debug symbols may not be available at dump time, and I can't see any alternative method to locate the remapped regions.
