makedumpfile

VMcore extraction tool

This program is used to extract a subset of the memory available either via /dev/mem or /proc/vmcore (for crashdumps). It is used to get memory images without extra unneeded information (zero pages, userspace programs, etc).

kexec-tools

tools to support fast kexec reboots

This package provides tools to load a kernel into memory and then "reboot" directly into that kernel using the kexec system call, bypassing the normal boot process.
