Hmm, this machine is reserved by other, I have no access to take a look
about reserved memory. All of the configuration are set by default.
Maybe it's about 420M.

I don't memtion this during testing it.

For this case, makedumpfile fails to dump vmcore with option
--num-threads 30.

I suspect the following output from strace.
