Description Baoquan He 2022-05-12 10:43:11 UTC
Description of problem:
virtiofs is a new filesystem for passing through host directories into
virtual machines. Guest could set virtiofs volume as dump target or, boot using virtiofs as rootfs. Hence supporting dumping vmcore to virtiofs is needed.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 37 development cycle.
Changing version to 37.
