Hi I am a university student, and have made some changes to
makedumpfile to produce a gzipped output of core dump. The issue I'm
facing is that the output i get from makedumpfile (after it completes
successfully) is vmcore-incomplete.gzip.
But this file is not being renamed to vmcore.gzip (even thought the
dump the complete as I verified it by loading into CRASH utility). Can
someone please point out to me the changes I should make to solve this
bug (or can point to the code where this renaming is done).
Thanks and Regards,

makedumpfile doesn't have such renaming mechanism, it just name the dump
as user specify. I guess "vmcore-incomplete" you said is came from kexec-tools.
For example, kexec-tools of RHEL7 generate the code below for dump-capture kernel:
110 echo "kdump: saving vmcore"
111 $CORE_COLLECTOR /proc/vmcore $_mp/$KDUMP_PATH/$HOST_IP-$DATEDIR/vmcore-incomplete || return 1
112 mv $_mp/$KDUMP_PATH/$HOST_IP-$DATEDIR/vmcore-incomplete $_mp/$KDUMP_PATH/$HOST_IP-$DATEDIR/vmcore
113 sync
$CORE_COLLECTOR is makedumpfile, so the code generate "vmcore-incomplete"
by makedumpfile and rename it to vmcore by mv.
If you want "vmcore.gzip", you should just specify vmcore.gzip for
makedumpfile.
Thanks,

In the first place, I don't know how you got core dump and what
kind of environment you tested with, so it's difficult to give
pointed advice.
If you explain what you did in order from first in detail,
I could be of your help.
Thanks,
