Subject: [PATCH 2/2] [PATCH 2/2] Fix 'kernel_version' variable being
uninitialized & introduce minor reorganization
On executing `makedumpfile --mem-usage /proc/kcore`, it
fails currently with the following error message on newer Linux kernels
like 4.13.0 or 4.14.0:
mem-usage not supported for this kernel.
You can try with -f if your kernel's kcore has valid p_paddr
makedumpfile Failed.
This happens because 'info->kernel_version' is uninitialized in function
main(). So when we perform the following check, it fails even though the
kernel version is greater than 4.11.0:
if (info->kernel_version < KERNEL_VERSION(4, 11, 0) &&
!info->flag_force) {
Fix this by reorganizing the code to:
- Add an API to populate the kernel version.
- Call this API rather than replicating the open code across other APIs
across 'makedumpfile.c'
After this patch, '--mem-usage' can be used properly with makedumpfile.
Here are the logs I observe on a Fedora 26 ppc64le system:
The kernel version is not supported.
The makedumpfile operation may be incomplete.
