Hello Zhou,
As I mentioned before, I reworded the message to append a NOTE to the
currently-existing WARNING:
WARNING: vmcore:
This dumpfile is incomplete. This may cause the crash session
to fail entirely, may cause commands to fail, or may result in
unpredictable runtime behavior.
NOTE: This dumpfile may be analyzed with the --zero_excluded command
line option, in which case any read requests from missing pages
will return zero-filled memory.
Queued for crash-7.1.3:

Thanks,
Dave

Zhou,
This seems reasonable. I may reword it slightly, but I won't be checking it
in until I return from vacation.
Thanks,
Dave

Subject: [Crash-utility] [PATCH]remind of using --zero_exlcuded
The option --zero_excluded can be used to analyze the incomplete
dumpfile.
So it is needed to remind users of using it when trying to analyze
incomplete dumpfile without --zero_excluded.
