Re: [Crash-utility] kdump format may be updated
Hi,
Is NT_XEN_DOM0_CR3 not being used by x86_64 by mistake,
or on purpose? Or perhaps you're saying that it's going to be
pulled out completely?
I'm afraid it may be deleted while patch-cleaning process..

The crash utility is wholly based upon the internal structure
of the Linux kernel.
Yes, I think so. I (and Magnus) are not clean about mismatch factor for
getting 'idle_pg_table' and
'dom0->shared_info->pfn_to_mfn_frame_list_list'
from xen binary in crash is_netdump routine.
I think appealing this terribleness may help keep ELF Core headers.
Thanks,
