I can't really provide any input to that decision -- I have no clue which tools support which format. The non-flat (ie. random-access, regular file) format appears more space- and computation-efficient, and I thought that would be the "natural" choice. The flat (non-seekable) format was a surprise to me -- I wouldn't have thought that any debugger could directly consume that format.
The flat-mode comes from makedumpfile as kdump-compressed format, and crash utility has already supported it. -- Regards Qiao Nuohan
