- Update to 5.1.1
  o Fix for the potential to miss tasks when walking the pid_hash
    table in 2.6.24 and later kernels.  Without the patch, the task
    will simply not be seen in the gathered task list.

o Enhancement for the ARM architecture's "bt" command  to print
    out the user space register set for tasks entering the kernel
    via the syscall entry point.

o Rework of the handling of "set" commands that are put in 
    .crashrc files so that only the following options are resolved
    prior to session initialization: silent, console, core, edit,
    namelist, and zero_excluded.  All others are resolved
    immediately after session initialization is complete.
    Accordingly, the use of "set -c <cpu>", "set -p",
    "set -a [task|pid]" and set [pid|task]" are now acceptable
    .crashrc commands.

o The entering of "set -v" in a .crashrc file would cause an
    immediate segmentation violation.  The "set" command rework
    above defers the command until session initialization is
    complete.

o The entering of "set dumpfile <filename>" in a .crashrc file
    would cause a fatal "seek" error during session initalization
    with most most dumpfile types, so the "dumpfile" option has
    been removed from the "set" command.

o The execution of "alias" commands from a .crashrc file used to
    be performed immediately; that behavior has been changed so
    that they are executed immediately after session initialization
    is complete.

o Enhancement of the "repeat" command to allow command aliases.

o Fix for running "kmem -s" on a live system if an offline cpu is
    brought back online while the command is executing.  Without
    the patch, the online operation may cause a segmentation
    violation.

o Change the behavior of "bt -[tT]" to allow the command options
    to be run on active tasks on live systems.  Without the patch,
    both command options would display the task data banner
    followed by "(active)".

o Fix for the ARM architecuture's "irq" command when run on
    2.6.36 and later kernels.  Without the patch, the command fails
    with the error message "irq: invalid kernel virtual address: 23
    type: irq_chip typename".   The fix replaces the custom ARM IRQ
    dumping function with the architecture-neutral version.

o Introduced support for using /proc/kcore as an alternative
    source of live memory to /dev/mem.  Doing so allows vmalloc
    memory access on 32-bit architectures when the underlying
    mapped physical memory is in highmem, which is not allowed by
    the /dev/mem driver.  It would also be usable on systems that
    are configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM but still configured
    with CONFIG_PROC_KCORE.  To enforce the use of /proc/kcore, it
    may be entered on the command line.

o If a live crash session attempts to use /dev/mem as a live
    memory source, and it is determined that the system is
    configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, /proc/kcore will
    automatically be tried as an alternative.

o Fix to allow "/dev/crash" to be entered on the command line for
    live sessions.  Because it is used automatically if it exists,
    it is never necessary to enter it on the command line.  However,
    if it is used, without the patch, the session fails during
    initializaion with the error message "crash: /dev/crash: No
    such file or directory" if the crash.ko driver is a module, or
    "crash: /dev/crash: not a supported file format" if the driver
    is built into the kernel.

o Fix for the ARM "bt" command to address the issue behind faulty
    warning messages that indicate "WARNING: UNWIND: unsupported
    personality routine".

o Fix for the ARM "bt" command to address the issue behind faulty
    warning messages that indicate "bt: WARNING: UNWIND: cannot
    find index for <address>".

  o Show hexadecimal values in the "INDEX" colum of "kmem -p",
    because because "page.index" is typically a shared-use field
    that may also contain a pointer value.

- Update to 5.0.3
  o Fix for running against 2.6.34 and later kernels to recognize
    and handle changes in the kernel's per-cpu data symbol naming,
    which no longer prefixes "per_cpu__" to declared per-cpu symbol
    names.
  o Fix for "swap" and "kmem -i" commands on 2.6.29 or later,
    big-endian, ppc64 kernels, where the swap_info_struct.flags

      but the "repeat" command would then restart it.
    - If a command in the input file redirected its output to a pipe, the
      repeat operation could stop prematurely after executing that particular
      command.
    - If a command in the input file redirected its output to a pipe, the
      zombies of the command being piped to would not be cleaned up until the
      repeat command was stopped.
    - If the last command in the input file redirected its output to a pipe,
      all subsequent executions of the input file would only display the
      output of that last command.
  o New extension: "trace.so"

  o Multiple fixes for the "bt" command on x86_64:
    - properly recognize vsyscall FIXMAP virtual addresses when

      frame, or above an exception frame that gets handled on the process
      stack, such as a page fault
    - correctly calculate the frame size to differentiate between text
      return addresses and the precise text RIP address of an exception

    crafted object file with a location block (DW_FORM_block) that
    contains a large number of operations.
  o Fix for a potential but highly unlikely integer overflow in the
    Binary File Descriptor (BFD) library, which requires a hand-
    crafted object file that that specifies a large number of
    section headers, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow.
  o Enable stack unwind on ia64 when using a kerntypes file as the
    kernel namelist.
  o Fix for failure of "files -R" command option if an inode is
    unknown due to a NULL f_dentry pointer in any open file
    structure because of a kernel error condition.
  o Allow an LKCD kerntypes debuginfo file created from a kernel
    module to be loaded with the command:
    "mod -s <module> <kerntypes-file>".

    during runtime via "<", where more than one command in the
    input file  results in a fatal error.
  o Clean up causes for warning messages when compiling with gcc
    4.3.2.
  o Fix to prevent a segmentation violation during initialization
    when parsing (corrupted) module symbols.
  o If an active task experiences a kernel stack overflow, the
    task's thread_info structure located at the very bottom of the
    stack will likely have its "cpu" field corrupted.
  o Modification of the the "files" command when a task has an open
    file referenced by a file descriptor, but the file structure's
    f_dentry  field is NULL.
  o Fix for the "bt" command on x86 Xen architectures when the
    backtrace starts on the hard IRQ stack.

  o Fix for a bug in the SIAL extension when dealing with
    bitfields.
  o Fix for the "files" command when run on 2.6.25 and later

    show nonsensical/garbage "ROOT" and "CWD" pathnames.
  o Addition of a new "null-stop" environment variable that can be
    turned on/off with the "set" command.
  o Fix for the builtin "g" alias, which would fail with an
    "Ambiguous command" error from the embedded gdb module.

  must be the same in crash and in the kernel which created the dump
  when reading lkcd dump files (related to #208972)
