Yes, I see. blktools seems to buggy, yes.
But blktool outputs memory fragments that seems to come from other
processes. I saw string "bash", "lled with unallocated bl" and other
strings that do not appear in blktools image. Without further
investigation it seems that in case of the error, soma data ise leaked
from kernel to the buggy program in userspace (blktool in this case).
