Hi Qi, first, most people, including me, prefer to be in Cc for the entire patchset. It helps to get the whole picture. This mail is even worse because the other patches are not in the same thread. As a result, I can't find the other patches even via lore, see https://lore.kernel.org/all/20231221132522.547-1-ruipengqi7@xxxxxxxxx/ On Thu 2023-12-21 21:25:22, Ruipeng Qi wrote: > From: qiruipeng <qiruipeng@xxxxxxxxxxx> > > Osdump is a new crash dumping solution like crash.

It is a bad idea and maintenance nightmare. It is not acceptable from my POV. Please, split the shared code into a separate source file. BTW: Is it really a big deal to just share the entire vmcoreinfo? Osdump might just ignore entries which are not supported at the moment.
