On x86_32 unsigned long has 32-bit length only. So, you should define max_mapnr as unsigned long long. > }; > > - 1st-bitmap > diff --git a/diskdump_mod.h b/diskdump_mod.h > index af060b6..30306a5 100644 > --- a/diskdump_mod.h > +++ b/diskdump_mod.h > @@ -48,7 +48,9 @@ struct disk_dump_header { > header in blocks */ > unsigned int bitmap_blocks; /* Size of Memory bitmap in > block */ > - unsigned int max_mapnr; /* = max_mapnr */ > + unsigned int max_mapnr; /* = max_mapnr, 32bit only, > + full 64bit in sub header. > + Do not use this anymore! */ > unsigned int total_ram_blocks;/* Number of blocks should be > written */ > unsigned int device_blocks; /* Number of total blocks in > @@ -75,6 +77,7 @@ struct kdump_sub_header { > unsigned long size_note; /* header_version 4 and later */ > off_t offset_eraseinfo; /* header_version 5 and later */ > unsigned long size_eraseinfo; /* header_version 5 and later */ > + unsigned long max_mapnr; /* header_version 6 and later */ This, too. > @@ -5153,10 +5160,11 @@ write_kdump_header(void) > * Write common header > */ > strncpy(dh->signature, KDUMP_SIGNATURE, strlen(KDUMP_SIGNATURE)); > - dh->header_version = 5; > + dh->header_version = 6; > dh->block_size = info->page_size; > dh->sub_hdr_size = sizeof(kh) + size_note; > dh->sub_hdr_size = divideup(dh->sub_hdr_size, dh->block_size); > + /* dh->max_mapnr may be truncated here, full 64bit in kh.max_mapnr */ > dh->max_mapnr = info->max_mapnr; dh->max_mapnr = MIN(info->max_mapnr, UINT_MAX) seems better for old versions of crash utitlity. -- Thanks.
