d13fd38df4 kdump-error-handler.service: Remove ExecStopPost
Currently "systemctl --fail --no-block default" will be executed on
kdump-error-handler exit due to the config. This may makes systemd try
to isolate to the default target again.

The execute chain will be like:

initrd.target -> kdump.sh (failed) -> kdump-error-handler.service ->
failure_action -> final_action -> ExecStopPost (go to initrd.target again)

Currently, reboot/shutdown/halt is called by either by executing
failure_action or final_action. So the loop will be stopped. However
nont of the reboot/shutdown/halt call is blocking so it might lead to
race issue.

Just drop the ExecStopPost to fix this potential issue.

f13eab60cb mkdumprd: simplify dracut args parsing
Previously dracut_args is stored as an array in the shell code,
so we can just pass this array as argument to dracut.
But when trying to append new dracut argument, we have to manually
handle the quotes and spaces to ensure the appended argument is
splitted into array elements in the right way.

This is complex and hard to read or maintain. Instead, just store the
dracut_args as a plain string, and let xargs help parse it and call
dracut.

Simply passing $dracut_args or "$dracut_args" will either let dracut
consider the whole string as a single argument, or loss all the
quotes. xargs can handle it well and cover more corner cases.

Eg. one corner case before, if we have:
dracut_args --mount "/dev/sda1 /mnt/test xfs rw"

Kdump will fail, because the function add_dracut_arg() will wrongly
change the arguments into: (Notice the extra space.)
dracut_args --mount " /dev/sda1 /mnt/test xfs rw"

Instead of fixing it just use xargs instead. Tested with above config
and multiple other dracut_args values.

5633e83318 Always set vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 3 in kdump kernel
By default kernel have vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 0 and large page
allocation might fail as kernel is very conservative on memory
reclaiming. If the page allocation failure is not handled carefully
it could lead to more serious problems.

This issue can be reproduced by change with following steps:

- Fill up page cache use:
  # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/test bs=1M count=1300

- Now the memory is filled with write cache:
  # free -m
                total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
  Mem:           1790         184         132           2        1473        1348
  Swap:          2119           7        2112

- Insert a module which simply calls "kmalloc(SZ_1M, GFP_KERNEL)" for
  512 times: (Notice: vmalloc don't have such problem)
  # insmod debug_module.ko

- Got following allocation failure:
  insmod: page allocation failure: order:8, mode:0x40cc0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0

- Clean up and repeat again with vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 3, OOM is not
  observed.

In kdump kernel there is usually only one online CPU and limited memory,
so we set vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 3 to let kernel reclaim memory more
aggresively to avoid such issue.

0a9aabaadd kdumpctl: make reload fail proof
When large amount of memory, about 1TB, is removed with DLPAR memory
remove operation, kdump reload could fail due to race condition with
device tree property update. In such scenario, the subsequent kdump
reload requests would also fail as reload() only proceeds if current
load status is active. Since the possibility of this race condition
couldn't be wished away due to the nature of the scenario, workaround
it by proceeding to load even if current load status is not active as
long as kdump service is active, which kdump udev rules already check
for.

39352d0cfc Don't execute final_action if failure_action terminates the system
If failure_action is shutdown/reboot/halt, final_action is pointless as
the system will be already stopping. And if final_action is different
from failure_action, it will trigger a systemd race problem and cause
unexpected behavior to occur.

So let the error handler stop and exit after performing failure_action
successfully if failure_action is one of shutdown/reboot/halt.
This way, final_action will not be executed.

5e76e53a70 module-setup.sh: Simplify the network setup code
Merge kdump_setup_netdev into kdump_install_net.

kdump_install_net is a wrapper of calling kdump_setup_netdev, and
it do following three extra things:

  1. Sanitize and resolve the hostname
  2. Resolve the route to the destination
  3. Set the default gateway for once

There is currently only one caller of kdump_setup_netdev, the iscsi
network setup code, and it's doing 1 and 2 by itself. And there should
only be one default gateway in kdump enviroment, so applying 3 here is
fine.

And the comment of kdump_install_net is wrong and obsoleted, update the
comment too.

Just merge kdump_setup_netdev into kdump_install_net and always use
kdump_install_net instead.

6dee286467 Don't mount the dump target unless needed
For fadump, this helps to reduce the risk of boot failure, and
may also help speed up the boot by a bit.

For normal kdump, this will delay the dump target mounting, and no
longer depend on systemd to do the mounting job.

And currently there is a failure that caused by some mount handling
bug with kernel and systemd that is failing the system booting:

[FAILED] Failed to mount /kdumproot/home.
See 'systemctl status kdumproot-home.mount' for details.
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems.
[  OK  ] Reached target Remote File Systems (Pre).
[  OK  ] Reached target Remote File Systems.

a0db00d575 makedumpfile: Fix inconsistent return value from find_vmemmap()
Backport from the makedumpfile devel branch in upstream.

commit 8425342a52b23d462f10bceeeb1c8a3a43d56bf0
Author: Kazuhito Hagio <k-hagio@ab.jp.nec.com>
Date:   Fri Sep 6 09:50:34 2019 -0400

    [PATCH] Fix inconsistent return value from find_vmemmap()

    When -e option is given, the find_vmemmap() returns FAILED(1) if
    it failed on x86_64, but on architectures other than that, it is
    stub_false() and returns FALSE(0).

              if (info->flag_excludevm) {
                      if (find_vmemmap() == FAILED) {
                              ERRMSG("Can't find vmemmap pages\n");

      #define find_vmemmap()          stub_false()

    As a result, on the architectures other than x86_64, the -e option
    does some unnecessary processing with no effect, and marks the dump
    DUMP_DH_EXCLUDED_VMEMMAP unexpectedly.

    Also, the functions for the -e option return COMPLETED or FAILED,
    which are for command return value, not for function return value.

    So let's fix the issue by following the common style that returns
    TRUE or FALSE, and avoid confusion.

commit b461971bfac0f193a0c274c3b657d158e07d4995
Author: Kazuhito Hagio <k-hagio@ab.jp.nec.com>
Date:   Thu Aug 29 14:51:56 2019 -0400

    [PATCH] Fix exclusion range in find_vmemmap_pages()

    In the function, since pfn ranges are literally start and end, not start
    and end+1, if the struct page of endpfn is at the last in a vmemmap page,
    the vmemmap page is dropped by the following code, and not excluded.

        npfns_offset = endpfn - vmapp->rep_pfn_start;
        vmemmap_offset = npfns_offset * size_table.page;
        // round down to page boundary
        vmemmap_offset -= (vmemmap_offset % pagesize);

    We can use (endpfn+1) here to fix.

    [PATCH] x86_64: Fix incorrect exclusion by -e option with KASLR

    The -e option uses info->vmemmap_start for creating a table to determine
    the positions of page structures that should be excluded, but it is a
    hardcoded value even with KASLR-enabled vmcore.  As a result, the option
    excludes incorrect pages from it.

    To fix this, get the vmemmap start address from info->mem_map_data.

680c0d3414 kdumpctl: distinguish the failed reason of ssh
On a host with ipaddr not ready before kdump service, ssh return errno 255.
While if no ssh-key, ssh also return errno 255. For both of cases, the
current kdump code promote user to run 'kdumpctl propagate'. This confuses
user who already installs ssh-key.

In order to tell these two cases from each other, the ssh warning message
should be involved, and parsed.

For the no ssh-key case , warning message is "Permission denied" or "No
such file or directory". For the other, warning message is "Network
Unreachable"

is converted to :
":,downdelay=0 miimon=100 mode=802.3ad updelay=0 "

c1a06343df kdumpctl: wait a while for network ready if dump target is ssh
If dump target is ipv6 address, a host should have ipv6 address ready
before starting kdump service. Otherwise, kdump service fails to start due
to the failure "ssh dump_server_ip mkdir -p $SAVE_PATH".
And user can see message like:
 "Could not create root@2620:52:0:10da:46a8:42ff:fe23:3272/var/crash"

I observe a long period (about 30s) on some machine before they got ipv6
address dynamiclly, which is never seen on ipv4 host.

Hence kdump service has a dependency on ipv6 address. But there is no good
way to resolve it. One way is asking user to run the cmd "nmcli connection
modify eth0 ipv6.may-fail false". But this will block systemd until ipv6
address is ready. Despite doing so, kdump can try its best (wait 1 minutes
after it starts up) before failure.

How to implement the wait is arguable. It will involve too many technique
details if explicitly waiting on ipv6 address, instead, just lean on 'ssh'
return value to see the availability of network.

Fix this issue by putting the definition in the right header, also tidy

88bbab963f dracut-module-setup.sh: skip alias of localhost in get_pcs_fence_kdump_nodes()
The current code only exclude the hostname, while localhost can have alias in
/etc/hosts. All of the alias should be excluded from the fence dump node to
avoid deadlock issue.

cf5d362dca dracut-module-setup.sh: Don't use squash module for fadump
Squash module is used to save memory. For fadump this is not neccessary
and may slow down the build time, and make it more fragile.

fadump initramfs is used for normal boot as well, although squash module
is capable of being used for generic normal boot, but there are cases
where is doesn't work well. So disable it and make fadump more robust.

5b26c1f8b2 Forward logs in kdump kernel to console directly
Don't use any log storage and forward to console directly, this make
console output more useful, and also save more memory. On a fresh
installed Fedora 30 it saved ~5M of memory, and the amount of log being
printed to console is still accetable.

b998b90197 kdump.sysconfig/x86_64: Disable HEST by default
Some firmware will provide a ACPI HEST table with massive amount of
entries, and the way how kernel handles these entries will consume a lot
of memory which will lead to OOM issue in kdump kernel. During testing
on certain machine, disable HEST saved ~60M of memory.

Kdump is only for emergency use in case of a kernel panic, so temporarily
disable hardware error report & recovery related feature is acceptable
in general. So disable HEST support in kdump kernel to save memory.

Currently such issue is only observed on x86_64, so limit this change to
x86_64 only.

b1250de389 makedumpfile: x86_64: Add support for AMD Secure Memory Encryption
Backport from the makedumpfile devel branch in upstream.

commit d222b01e516bba73ef9fefee4146734a5f260fa1 (HEAD -> devel)
Author: Lianbo Jiang <lijiang@redhat.com>
Date:   Wed Jan 30 10:48:53 2019 +0800

    [PATCH] x86_64: Add support for AMD Secure Memory Encryption

    On AMD machine with Secure Memory Encryption (SME) feature, if SME is
    enabled, page tables contain a specific attribute bit (C-bit) in their
    entries to indicate whether a page is encrypted or unencrypted.

    So get NUMBER(sme_mask) from vmcoreinfo, which stores the value of
    the C-bit position, and drop it to obtain the true physical address.
