If yes, then why should n't above be correct for all linear regions. Other option could be what kernel is doing. But I am not sure, how can kexec-tools get kimage_voffset. > > > (4) Further more, vmcore must have first PT_LOAD segment as kernel text area. > > Which part of the code do you think depends on this assumption? It seems that there was no issue while analyzing with crash utility, even when first PT_LOAD segment is not for kernel text area. However, from the comment in kexec/crashdump-elf.c: FUNC(), it seems that kernel text is expected as first segment. 218 /* We already prepared the header for kernel text.
