Rachita,
As I mentioned before, this task should be running in user space.
You should notice the similar kind of stack trace even using GDB. Better
to give proper error message here.
About your other issue: I could not reproduce it.

Probably, this issue is showing up on your system (has 8 CPUS) since my
system is having only 2 CPUs. We need to investigate.
Dave, I tested very few commands on PPC64 vmcore. Where as Rachita is
doing more testing. We might see some bugs which I have not encountered.
We will get back to you with patches as we find bugs.
Thanks
