Kernel commit 869176a09606 ("mm/vmalloc.c: add flags to mark vm_map_ram area"), which is contained in Linux 6.3 and later, added "flags" member to struct vmap_area. This was the revival of the "flags" member as kernel commit 688fcbfc06e4 had eliminated it before. As a result, crash started to use the old procedure using the member and displays no vmalloc'd regions, because it does not have the same flag value as the old one. crash> kmem -v VMAP_AREA VM_STRUCT ADDRESS RANGE SIZE crash> To fix this, also check if vmap_area.purge_list exists, which was introduced with the flags and removed later, to determine that the flags member is the old one.
