Ah. Yes, the usage of CRASHBUILTIN is ugly, and I tried to document this. We need the new (say) RAW_MEM_DUMP flag. We can't use RAMDUMP because it can be set along with KDUMP. And there is no room in pc->flags, so I decided to abuse CRASHBUILTIN for now. Oleg. -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
