On i686 PAE enabled machine the contiguous physical area could be large and it can cause trimming down variables in below calculation in read_vmcore() and mmap_vmcore(): tsz = min_t(size_t, m->offset + m->size - *fpos, buflen); That is, the types being used is like below on i686: m->offset: unsigned long long int m->size: unsigned long long int *fpos: loff_t (long long int) buflen: size_t (unsigned int) So casting (m->offset + m->size - *fpos) by size_t means truncating a given value by 4GB. Suppose (m->offset + m->size - *fpos) being truncated to 0, buflen >0 then we will get tsz = 0. It is of course not an expected result. Similarly we could also get other truncated values less than buflen. Then the real size passed down is not correct any more. If (m->offset + m->size - *fpos) is above 4GB, read_vmcore or mmap_vmcore use the min_t result with truncated values being compared to buflen. Then, fpos proceeds with the wrong value so that we reach below bugs: 1) read_vmcore will refuse to continue so makedumpfile fails. 2) mmap_vmcore will trigger BUG_ON() in remap_pfn_range(). Use unsigned long long in min_t instead so that the variables in are not truncated.
