  Kdump-Tools: Makedumpfile Failed, Falling Back To 'Cp'

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When testing kdump on Ubuntu 18.04.4 (arm64) GA kernel, makedumpfile fails. 
The test steps are as follows:
  # echo 1> / proc / sys / kernel / sysrq
  # echo c> / proc / sysrq-trigger
  The logs are as follows:

  kdump-tools[646]: starting kdump-tools: * running makedumpfile -c -d 31 
/proc/vmcore /var/crash/202003251128/dump-incomplete
  kdump-tools[646]: readpage_elf: Attempt to read non-existent page at 0x0

  kdump-tools[646]: makedumpfile Failed.
  kdump-tools[646]: * kdump-tools: makedumpfile failed, falling back to 'cp'

  But when I use the HWE kernel, I find that there is no such problem.
  The HEW kernel version: 5.3.0-42-generic
