- Fix for support of 2.6.22 kernels, which have changed the name
of the task_struct's "thread_info" member to the "stack" member.
This would cause the crash session to fail during initialization.
(troy.heber@xxxxxx, anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Fix to account for the number of pgdata nodes being less than the
number of cpus. Without the patch, the crash session would fail
during initialization with the error message: "crash: numnodes out
of sync with pgdat_list?" (sharyath@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Implemented support for ia64 dom0/HV kdump dumpfile support, taken
either via the traditional kdump process, or simulated via the
Fujitsu "sadump" facility. (oda@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)
- Created a "--no_panic" command line option to avoid the panic-task
search during initialization. (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Implmented a new "ps -r" option to display resource limits (ulimits):
crash> ps -r 20618

- Implement support for the registration of CLEANUP extension commands
that do not show up in help menu, but get called by restore_sanity().
Extension modules may also register HIDDEN_COMMAND functions; and the
"help -e" debug output has been enhanced. (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- Implemented a new symbol_value_module() primitive, primarily for use
by extension modules to quickly access the address of a module symbol
in cases where a name-clash may exist between the base kernel and/or
other modules. (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
- The crash-4.0-4.2.src.rpm package will create an additional package
named crash-devel-4.0-4.2.i386.rpm, which is for use by extension
modules. The -devel package installs the top-level "defs.h" file in
"/usr/include/crash/defs.h". (anderson@xxxxxxxxxx)
