Hi Bhupesh, Sorry for the late reply, I tested your v5 patches on arm64 and x86_64 vms with 4.15, 5.4 and the latest upstream kernel and makedumpfile works fine. Cheers, Ioanna On Thu, Sep 10, 2020 at 9:42 PM Bhupesh SHARMA wrote: > > Hello Ioanna, > > Thanks for the patch. I am partially at

Hello Ioanna, Thanks for the patch. I am partially at blame here (and also for top-posting here) as this failure is caused due to the flipped VA address space support we have on arm64 architecture now with newer kernels (>= 5.4.0) due to the addition of larger VA addressing space features
