[PATCH] Fix Makefile for eppic_makedumpfile.so build.
When libeppic isn't installed on a standard location, building
eppic_makedumpfile.so with -leppic directly doesn't work.
Add LDFLAGS to build arguments, so that one can pass LDFLAGS="-Ldir
-Idir" to tell where to search for libeppic library and its header
files.
For example, if eppic source is installed on the same directory level
with makedumpfile as the following:
makedumpfile
|--- arch
+--- eeppic_scripts
eppic
|--- applications
+--- libeppic
After compiling libeppic, one can use the following command to build
eppic_makedumpfile.so:
make LDFLAGS="-I../eppic/libeppic -L../eppic/libeppic" eppic_makedumpfile.so

NetworkManager changed the format of ifcfg-device files. They may define
static IP addresses with the following format:
IPADDR0=192.168.122.100
PREFIX0=24
There may be up to 255 ip addresses for a network device - each with a unique
number tagged to the end of IPADDR and PREFIX.
Prior to this fix, kdump only handled static ip addresses defined with
IPADDR=192.168.122.100
PREFIX=24
ie. without the number.
The solution is to use "ip" commands to find the correct network information.
Tested with both static and dynamic IP addresses.
v2: Fixed a local variable that was set incorrectly
v3: Fix iscsi case

Rename the subpackage kdump-anaconda-addon to kexec-tools-anaconda-addon
to keep consistency and make fedpkg build happy
Because every time fedpkg builds a new release the package version number
should increase. But kdump-annaconda-addon just keep same version, so let's
rename it to kexec-tools-annaconda-addon here kexec-tools- is a default prefix.
For version let's use default top level version.
At the same time, rename the kdump-anaconda-addon directory name to anaconda-addon
to make it more standard. Using the current data instead of version number as a
surfix of kdump-anaconda-addon tarball just like kexec-tools-po did.

makedumpfile_eppic.so (provided by kexec-tools-eppic) is built against
makedumpfile (provided by kexec-tools). kexec-tools-eppic must depend on
the same version.release of kexec-tools, otherwise there could be a ABI
compatibility issue.

During debugging of another problem issues were noted with the kdump udev
rules. The kdump service is restarted on memory add and remove events.
These are the wrong events for these types of devices and result in an overly
aggressive restarting of the kdump service.
There are four udev events to consider, "add", "remove", "online", and
"offline". The remove event is a complete removal from the system -- neither
the hardware nor the kernel know about the hardware; it has been physically
removed. The add event is associated with hardware being physically added to
the system. The kernel has some limited knowledge of the device, however,
it is not avaiable for the kernel to use until it is brought online. Online
events refer to the device being available for the kernel to use. Opposite
to that is the offline event, which occurs when a device is no longer in
use by the kernel.
Note that in all four events the kernel *may* have some remaining information
stored about the device.
In the case of memory hotplug, kdump should be restarted when a memory module
is onlined or offlined. This is because the memory is not in use by the
kernel until the memory is onlined, and it is unused when the memory is
offlined.
Making these modifications results in smooth service on systems that do
heavy memory onlining and offlining.

In current systemd implementation, nofail mount will not block
local-fs.target, which means our kdump.sh (in dracut-pre-pivot.service)
can't wait for nofail mount. And kdump.sh could run early than nofail
mount happens.
For short term, let's stop passing nofail to mount. As for
sysroot.mount, since we have explicitly specify to wait for it, "nofail"
isn't a problem.

In case no target is specified explicitly in /etc/kdump.conf, the behavior

system is mounted on any tier of 'path', and also to take the relevant

If default target is a separate disk, the related information need be
stored in /etc/kdump.conf of kdump initramfs. This includes the disk
info which will help to deduce the dump_code and path which the vmcore
will be written into.

When user does not specify dump target explicitly, it's better to
dump to the "path" specified. That means after dump user enter into
1st kernel, can find vmcore in the "path". If that path is in root
fs, vmcore is stored in root fs. If separate disk is mounted on
any tier of "path", we just dump vmcore into the left path on the
left separate disk.
E.g in kdump.conf
path /mnt/nfs
in mount info,
/dev/vdb on /mnt type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered)
Then vmcore will be saved in /nfs of /dev/vdb.
In this patch, pass mount info to dracut in this case if separate
disk is mounted on any tier of "path".
Meanwhile introduce a function in kdump-lib.sh to check if any
target is specified.
v4->v5:
Per Vivek's comment, add a helper function is_fs_dump_target.
Then is_user_configured_dump_target is rewrite with these helper
functions.

is_fs_type_nfs in handle_default_dump_target.

kdump need create the dir specified in "path" formerly if it does not

is mounted on this "path".

These utility function will be shared by several files, they are all

Meantime define DEFAULT_PATH="/var/crash".
v5-> v6:
Since in rhel7 nfs4 becomes default nfs version, and its fstype is
nfs4. So change the implementation of get_fs_type_from_target(),
whatever fstype returned from findmount, just echo nfs as fstype for all
nfs version.

Introduce is_fs_type_nfs to check if fstype is nfs or nfs4 per Vivek's

kdump-dep-generator is a systemd generator, used to write out kdump
service dependencies.
Currently it's only useful for ssh dump case. And in ssh dump case, it
writes out a dependency which kdump.service "Wants"
network-online.target:
# ls -l /run/systemd/generator/kdump.service.wants/
[..] network-online.target -> /usr/lib/systemd/system/network-online.target
So that kdump.service will pull in network-online.target and delayed
start until network-online.target is reached.
In the future, we could use generator to write out kdump.service
dynamically and get rid of the static defined kdump.service at all.
v1->v2:
Vivek: not using hardcoded run time generator path, use what systemd pass in.

Adds two new options to kdump.conf to be able to configure fence_kdump
support for generic clusters:
fence_kdump_args <arg(s)>
- Command line arguments for fence_kdump_send (it can contain all
valid arguments except hosts to send notification to)
fence_kdump_nodes <node(s)>
- List of cluster node(s) separated by space to send fence_kdump
notification to (this option is mandatory to enable fence_kdump)
Generic clusters fence_kdump configuration take precedence over older
method of fence_kdump configuration for Pacemaker clusters. It means
that if fence_kdump is configured using above options in kdump.conf, old
Pacemaker configuration is not used even if it exists.

Now when dump target is not specified, separate disk can't be mounted on
"path", e.g /var/crash. However if target is specified, whatever the default
fail action is set, mkdumprd should go ahead and not be failed.
In check_block_dump_target(), the check only on disk is not complete,
NFS and ssh need be filtered too. So introduce is_user_configured_dump_target
to check this.
