hm, probably I've never seen a system that has both mem_map and mem_section, but it looks like makedumpfile works fine.. i.e. recognizes it as SPARSEMEM_EXTREME correctly.

Yes, this says it's sane, and its paddr also looks sane..
So I'm not sure why read_diskdump() returns READ_ERROR, could you debug it?
I'm suspecting the read() below in cache_page() returns something, e.g.
--- a/diskdump.c
+++ b/diskdump.c
@@ -1189,10 +1189,13 @@ cache_page(physaddr_t paddr)
return PAGE_INCOMPLETE;
}
} else {
+ ssize_t r;
if (lseek(dd->dfd, pd.offset, SEEK_SET) == failed)
return SEEK_ERROR;
- if (read(dd->dfd, dd->compressed_page, pd.size) != pd.size)
+ if ((r = read(dd->dfd, dd->compressed_page, pd.size)) != pd.size) {
+ error(INFO, "errno=%d r=%ld pd.size=%u\n",
+ errno, r, pd.size);
return READ_ERROR;
+ }
}
if (pd.flags & DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_ZLIB) {
although another path may be returning it.

Hello,
Suggested trace above gives following information after a crash -d 8 command:

What could be done now ?
Thanks.
