Hi Petr, I saw this coming down the pike a while ago, and as I recall you made it sound like there would be major mods to diskdump.c. But it's not much at all, so thanks for that. I only have a couple minor nits with the patch-set: I added xen_dom0.h to GENERIC_HFILES in the Makefile so that it would get included in 'make files' (needed for creating the tar.gz and src.rpm files), and to cause xen_dom0.c (and everything else for that matter) to get recompiled if it changes. And 'make warn' complained about these: $ make warn ... [ cut ] ... cc -c -g -DX86_64 -DLZO -DSNAPPY -DGDB_7_6 netdump.c -Wall -O2 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -fstack-protector -Wformat-security netdump.c: In function 'dump_Elf32_Nhdr': netdump.c:1837:13: warning: unused variable 'words' [-Wunused-variable] netdump.c: In function 'dump_Elf64_Nhdr': netdump.c:2062:9: warning: unused variable 'up' [-Wunused-variable] netdump.c:2055:13: warning: unused variable 'words' [-Wunused-variable] ... [ cut ] ... -c -g -DX86_64 -DLZO -DSNAPPY -DGDB_7_6 xen_dom0.c -Wall -O2 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -fstack-protector -Wformat-security xen_dom0.c: In function 'dump_xen_kdump_data': xen_dom0.c:52:3: warning: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'char *' [-Wformat] xen_dom0.c:69:3: warning: format '%lx' expects argument of type 'long unsigned int', but argument 3 has type 'ulong *' [-Wformat] ... I removed the unused variables from netdump.c, and fixed the xen_dom0.c complaints, which were generated because fprintf() is being used instead of netdump_print(). I ran a quick set of tests on a set of old xen files I've got hanging around, and saw no problems. But for sanity's sake, I'm going to run it on my full set of dumpfiles overnight. BTW, are you going to go ballistic on me if I check this in upstream as one patch?
