Hi,
Could you explain why do you clear all registers just before jumping
into purgatory (please look into arch/x86/kernel/relocate_kernel_64.S
for more details)? There is no any single word about that. I do not
count comment which states what is going on. purgatory on entry does
not assume any
This patch will fix a bug of makedumpfile doesn't work correctly on system
has over 44-bit addressing in compression dump mode.

This patch will add 3 new fields in struct kdump_sub_header.

The patch will add support for new compressed dumpfile header_version 6.

In theory you can swap between to kernels with the preserve_context
case. Technically I like the ability but I don't know that it has ever
achieved much uptake.
I think that this is nice idea too. However, I have not

I'm kexecing into a kernel with a modified /dev/mem, modifying the

Why to boot in a second kernel to modify first kernel's RAM. Why not

I just read /proc/kallsyms. I'm really not doing anything complicated.
If you have a tool which takes two kernel images and create such
a delta, fine.
Isn't that

Hello Jingbai,
The old diskdump-compatibility issue has been addressed by this second
patch, but it fails to work with split kdumps.
I only have two sample split compressed kdumps. Despite the dumpfile
names, both of them were compressed and filtered with -c -d31.
Here is the first one:
