Hi,

I'm pleased to announce the release of makedumpfile 1.7.1.
Thank you everyone for your help to maintain this tool.

Download:
The latest makedumpfile can be downloaded from the following URL.
  https://github.com/makedumpfile/makedumpfile/releases

New features:
- Cycle detection for printk log_buf
- A lot of code hardening
- Support kernels up to v5.17 (x86_64)

Special thanks to Philipp Rudo (again), who has worked on hardening
makedumpfile.  This release contains the remainder of the work,
mainly removal of variable-length arrays.

Description of makedumpfile:
The makedumpfile is a tool for creating a dumpfile from /proc/vmcore
with filtering out unnecessary pages for analysis and compressing the
remaining pages, in order to shorten the size of the dumpfile and the
time of creating it.
