Hello Zhou,
As I mentioned before, I reworded the message to append a NOTE to the
currently-existing WARNING:
WARNING: vmcore:
This dumpfile is incomplete. This may cause the crash session
to fail entirely, may cause commands to fail, or may result in
unpredictable runtime behavior.
NOTE: This dumpfile may be analyzed with the --zero_excluded command
line option, in which case any read requests from missing pages
will return zero-filled memory.
Queued for crash-7.1.3:
https://github.com/crash-utility/crash/commit/e90f049c22582033a7cd4335a6aede6c9126f2cd
Thanks,
Dave
