Hi

> of the checkpoint/restart context (sys.c), output wrappers and basic
> checkpoint handling (checkpoint.c), memory dump (ckpt_mem.c), input
> wrappers and basic restart handling (restart.c), and finally the memory
> restore (rstr_mem.c).

please write a documentation of describe memory dump file format,
and split save and restore to two patches.
