Hi, Jay,
Somehow I don't quite understand what your concern is, Dan's
patch(see the link I pasted in the previous email for details.) would
suffice for integrating kdump into kdb. I don't know why it was not
accepted. I took his patch and ported to i386, then I tested the kdump
command inside kdb, the result is okay, it works well in i386 and
x86_64, the kernel I was using includes a couple of releases between
2.6.16 and 2.6.18. If you need the patches against the latest kdb
release, I can submitted them to this maillist. In addition, I can
port it into ia64 and send you the patch later.
In the meanwhile, I don't think the patch summitted by Joe, (I mean
the "kdump-kdb" patch) is really necessary.
Regards
Jason
