Hi

- [2/3] Fix the ELF dumpfile
  The second problem is that gdb can not analyze the ELF dumpfile.
  When I created the feature of the ELF dumpfile output, I did not
  consider that PT_LOAD is not on page_size boundary. If PT_LOAD is
  not on page_size boundary, gdb can not analyze it.

  Even if you apply the attached patchset to makedumpfile, the crash
  utility can not read the ELF dumpfile in some case. Because necessary
  zero pages are excluded.

  I created the feature of the ELF dumpfile output only for gdb, not for
  the crash utility. The crash utility considers the excluded page of
  the ELF dumpfile to be unaccessible area. If necessary zero pages are
  excluded, the crash utility can not analyze it.

  If you use the crash utility, please do not select the ELF dumpfile
  format.

Thanks
