In QEMU monitor 'dump-guest-memory' command:
(qemu) help dump-guest-memory
dump-guest-memory [-p] [-d] [-z|-l|-s] filename [begin length] -- dump guest memory into file 'filename'.
-p: do paging to get guest's memory mapping.
-d: return immediately (do not wait for completion).
-z: dump in kdump-compressed format, with zlib compression.
-l: dump in kdump-compressed format, with lzo compression.
-s: dump in kdump-compressed format, with snappy compression.
begin: the starting physical address.
length: the memory size, in bytes
