I will try to push makedumpfile, kexec-tools and crash on the basis that those new versions are required to support new kernels as the ones that come from linux-hwe. New version upgrades are allowed. Even though the following link [1] mentions microreleases, and we would upgrade from 1.5.9 to 1.6.3, I believe the exception still applies.
However, that means that we will need to test it much more. So, I would like your help with testing that combination on as many environments as possible. If I give you a personal PPA with those packages, will you be able to test it on different scenarios (NUMA systems, like ones with no node 0), systems with large amounts of memory (512GiB and up), etc?
