Hi all,
Am trying to use crash to analyse a dump file produced on an ARM-32.
(Actually, it's on a Qemu-emulated ARM Vexpress-CA9 platform). Have
succeeded in setting up and building a custom kernel with KEXEC, etc
enabled, done the kexec of the dump kernel, triggered a crash (via
/proc/sysrq-trigger).
The system then 'reboots' successfully into the dump kernel (same
zImage btw), and I can see and copy the /proc/vmcore kdump file. All
fine there.
The issue is in analysing the same using the crash utility on my
x86_64 (Ubuntu 17.04) host. I realize:
"...
On an x86 or x86_64 host, a 32-bit x86 binary that can be used to analyze
32-bit arm dumpfiles may be built by typing "make target=ARM".
..."
But the build fails, pl see output below:
git clone https://github.com/crash-utility/crash.git
cd crash
make target=ARM
TARGET: ARM
CRASH: 7.1.9++
GDB: 7.6

Looks to me like it fails with
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lz
So, I did the usual checks; i have these 'libz' libs installed on the box:
$ dpkg -l |grep "libz.*comp"
ii libzstd-dev 1.1.2-1
amd64 fast lossless
compression algorithm -- development files
ii libzstd1 1.1.2-1
amd64 fast lossless
compression algorithm
$
What package(s) do I need to install to overcome this issue? / what am
i doing wrong?
Any help appreciated, tia!
Regards,
Kaiwan.
