What is the appropriate uncompressed kernel ELF to use with dwarf2json? [ 5.19.0-42-generic #43~22.04.1-Ubuntu ], in order to create generate a custom symbols table to conduct linux memory forensics on Ubuntu 22.04?
I need this to create generate a custom symbols table (using dwarf2json), in order to run a memory dump acquired by Ubuntu 22.04, as Ubuntu 22.04 kernel does not work anymore with volatility 2 (Issue here: volatilityfoundation/volatility#828)
