If in fact this is the wrong alias to post this question, appreciate a pointer in the right direction.

It is just not clear where the values should come from. I did try using the value of kimage_offset found in /proc/kallsyms but that did not help. It is not clear where one needs to get the values from (and in fact a casual reading of the crash source seems to try to compute the values automatically) > > Here is some additional information: > > # uname -a > Linux bringup 5.1.0 #1 SMP Fri Oct 11 17:01:55 UTC 2019 aarch64 GNU/Linux > > # crash -s > crash: /proc/kcore: No such file or directory Seem like your kernel is not configured with CONFIG_PROC_KCORE (/proc/kcore support). With /proc/kcore you don't need to supply any additional options & values to crash. > WARNING: could not find MAGIC_START! > WARNING: cannot read linux_banner string > crash: /boot/vmlinux-5.1.0 and /dev/mem do not match! > > This is with additional debugging turned on: > > # ./crash --version > > crash 7.2.8++ > Copyright (C) 2002-2020 Red Hat, Inc. > Copyright (C) 2004, 2005, 2006, 2010 IBM Corporation > Copyright (C) 1999-2006 Hewlett-Packard Co > Copyright (C) 2005, 2006, 2011, 2012 Fujitsu Limited > Copyright (C) 2006, 2007 VA Linux Systems Japan K.K. > Copyright (C) 2005, 2011 NEC Corporation > Copyright (C) 1999, 2002, 2007 Silicon Graphics, Inc. > Copyright (C) 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 Mission Critical Linux, Inc. > This program is free software, covered by the GNU General Public License, > and you are welcome to change it and/or distribute copies of it under > certain conditions.
