class DumpGuestMemory(gdb.Command):
    """Extract guest vmcore from qemu process coredump.

The sole argument is FILE, identifying the target file to write the
guest vmcore to.

This GDB command reimplements the dump-guest-memory QMP command in
python, using the representation of guest memory as captured in the qemu
coredump. The qemu process that has been dumped must have had the
command line option "-machine dump-guest-core=on".

For simplicity, the "paging", "begin" and "end" parameters of the QMP
command are not supported -- no attempt is made to get the guest's
internal paging structures (ie. paging=false is hard-wired), and guest
memory is always fully dumped.

Only x86_64 guests are supported.

The CORE/NT_PRSTATUS and QEMU notes (that is, the VCPUs' statuses) are
not written to the vmcore. Preparing these would require context that is
only present in the KVM host kernel module when the guest is alive. A
fake ELF note is written instead, only to keep the ELF parser of "crash"
happy.

Dependent on how busted the qemu process was at the time of the
coredump, this command might produce unpredictable results. If qemu
deliberately called abort(), or it was dumped in response to a signal at
a halfway fortunate point, then its coredump should be in reasonable
shape and this command should mostly work."""
