Any pointers to discussions > about why the LKCD work seems to more active than the > MCLX one? I don't think there has been such a discussion. The Mission Critical hackers were hired by RedHat and Dave Anderson continues to work on crash and making it available at: ftp://people.redhat.com/anderson He's had about a release per month. I thought MCLX crash has some strong points also. After I enhanced LKCD to support the ia64 I fixed MCLX crash so it could read the new LKCD crash dumps which are no longer monotonically increasing in memory. I did this to support NUMA systems which can have more memory than swap space. This way the most important memory can be saved first. If you read the lkcd-devel mailing list you can read our discussion on maintaining MLCX crash on the lkcd cvs tree. "And imnsho, debugging the kernel on a source level is the way to do it."
