Also, my series [PATCH 0/4] dump-guest-memory: correct the vmcores http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/225360 was dropped from qmp-1.6 (and consequently didn't make the d5a2bcf7 merge) due to an asynchronous change to another part of the tree that I could not have foreseen. IOW it was not my fault -- I did exercise due diligence and my series was building and working fine at the then-fresh master when I posted it. A conflicting function was introduced between my posting and Luiz's application of my series to his qmp-1.6 branch, and since I was on PTO from last Thursday, I could only refresh the series only today. The update from v1 to v2 is trivial: diff --git a/target-s390x/arch_dump.c b/target-s390x/arch_dump.c index f3e5144..9d36116 100644 --- a/target-s390x/arch_dump.c +++ b/target-s390x/arch_dump.c @@ -176,7 +176,8 @@ int s390_cpu_write_elf64_note(WriteCoreDumpFunction f, CPUState *cs, return s390x_write_all_elf64_notes("CORE", f, cpu, cpuid, opaque); } -int cpu_get_dump_info(ArchDumpInfo *info) +int cpu_get_dump_info(ArchDumpInfo *info, + const struct GuestPhysBlockList *guest_phys_blocks) { info->d_machine = EM_S390; info->d_endian = ELFDATA2MSB; Please do consider it for 1.6, it addresses a serious bug (= vmcores saved with dump-guest-memory/paging=false are broken for > 3.5G x86(_64) guests).
