@thorsten The changes landed in yakkety, not xenial yet =)
Looking at the bug statuses, this was not yet targeted at xenial series correctly, will adjust this on launchpad side now. ** Also affects: makedumpfile (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to makedumpfile in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1570775 Title: makekdump should re-exec with cio_ignore on s390x Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems: Fix Released Status in makedumpfile package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in makedumpfile source package in Xenial: New Bug description: As per https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/makedumpfile/+bug/1564475/comments/19 We should re-exec with cio_ignore lines. As per report there, it should result in lowered required crashdump setting. Hypothetically, one should be able to test this imperially by lowering crashdump memory settings until kdump does not succeed anymore. And then generated and append `cio_ignore -k -u` to the KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND= and see that kdump starts working again with a lower memory usage. Once this is developed / verified / tested, we should probably SRU this back to xenial.
