Thanks Poornima for the Patch. This has been Checked into LTP CVS. I
will publish your results along with CQś during coming LTP release.
Meanwhile i would request all of you to kindly use the KDUMP test suites
available to test KDUMP feature on your distros and report bugs, so,
that the same test-cases can be improved upon. Thanks everybody for your
contributions.
