Hi,
I am using crash 4.0-2.30 on an ia64 machine.
The memory dump of the stack shows parameters on the stack, one of which is
a user space pointer.

e00000014c930ed8:  __gp             v+4643276848
e00000014c930ee8:  60000fffffffb390 00000000000000ff
e00000014c930ef8:  v+4643276864     v+5579701608
e00000014c930f08:  sys_readlink+480 0000000000000792

OR

e00000014c930ed8:  a0000001009bb820 e000000114c2c830    .......0.......
e00000014c930ee8:  60000fffffffb390 00000000000000ff   .......`........
e00000014c930ef8:  e000000114c2c840 e00000014c937d68   @.......h}.L....
e00000014c930f08:  a00000010013da60 0000000000000792   `...............

I want to find what the parameter v+4643276848/e000000114c2c830 points to.

I used rd to print this but I dont see what I expect.  (Used "rd
e000000114c2c830 10")

What's the right way to inspect that memory?
