when building with "make warn". The warnings are all false alarm
messages of type [-Wformat-overflow=], [-Wformat-truncation=] and
[-Wstringop-truncation]; the affected files are extensions.c, task.c,
kernel.c, memory.c, remote.c, symbols.c, filesys.c and xen_hyper.c.

are specified by the QEMU mem-path argument of a memory-backend-file
object. This allows the running of a live crash session against a
QEMU guest from the host machine. In this example, the /tmp/MEM file
on a QEMU host represents the guest's physical memory:
$ qemu-kvm ...other-options... \
-object memory-backend-file,id=MEM,size=128m,mem-path=/tmp/MEM,share=on \
-numa node,memdev=MEM -m 128
and a live session run can be run against the guest kernel like so:
$ crash <path-to-guest-vmlinux> live:/tmp/MEM@0
By prepending the ramdump image name with "live:", the crash session will
act as if it were running a normal live session.
