Hi,

Thanks for your kexec/kdump tools.

I was running linux-2.6.20 on x86_64 & my machine's RAM is > 4GB.

Got the vmcore file (after following the steps in 
Documentation/kdump/kdump.txt).

To analyse the core file, I am using gdb (version-6.4). Issues that I am facing 
with this:
 1)"bt" gives me the stack from cpu-0 (ideally I think, it should give the 
thread that
    was running when panic happened)
 2) "info threads" is giving me only the threads on all the cpus (e.g, I have 2 
CPUs on my
    system, so, I was getting only two threads). Its not giving the rest of the 
threads that are
    active (may be sleeping or doing some thing else). In general, I dont get, 
the threads from
    per cpu runque.

In general, do you guys claim that gdb analyses the cores from kexec is 
reliable.

How ever, I can see that Dave's crash tool works fine against to the same 
vmcore.

Seetharam
