At compile time, I have LOG_BUF_LEN as 256K. However, when this kernel crashes (crashkernel set at 64M), vmcore-dmesg fails with below error. No program header covering vaddr 0xffff88013ff00000found kexec bug? Am I missing something here? Thank you. Here are some debugs I added to kernel. This is with 3.4 kernel and I've tried with kexec-tools-2.0.4.
