At the beginning of do_estimate it currently checks whether the
TARGET_INITRD exists and if not fails with an error message. This not
only requires the user to manually trigger the build of the initrd but
also ignores all cases where the TARGET_INITRD exists but need to be
rebuild. For example when there were changes to kdump.conf or when the
system switches from kdump to fadump. All these changes will impact the
outcome of do_estimate. Thus properly check whether the initrd needs to
be rebuild and if it does trigger the rebuild automatically.
To do so move the check whether the TARGET_INITRD has fadump enabled to
is_system_modified and call this function. With this force_(no_)rebuild
options in kdump.conf are ignored to avoid unnecessary rebuilds.
While at it cleanup check_system_modified and rename it to

gets rebuild to rebuild_initrd to avoid every caller has the same line.

check_rebuild uses a bunch of local variables to store the result of the

which check failed to print an appropriate info and trigger a rebuild if
needed. This not only makes the function hard to read but also requires
all checks to be executed even if an earlier one already determined that
the initrd needs to be rebuild. Thus refractor check_rebuild such that
it only checks whether the initrd needs to rebuild and trigger the

is_squash_available is only used in dracut-module-setup.sh and mkdumprd.

/usr/lib/udev/ccw_init [1] shipped by s390utils extracts the values of

or /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/*.nmconnection to activate znet
network device. If the connection profile is copied to initrd,
there is no need to set up the "rd.znet" dracut cmdline parameter.
There are two cases addressed by this commit,
1. znet network interface is a slave of bonding/teaming/vlan/bridging
network. The connection profile has been copied to initrd by
kdump_copy_nmconnection_file and it contains the info needed by
ccw_init.
2. znet network interface is a slave of bonding/teaming/vlan/bridging
network. The corresponding ifcfg-*/*.nmconnection file may not contain
info like SUBCHANNELS [2]. In this case, copy the ifcfg-*/*.nmconnection
file that has this info to the kdump initrd. Also to prevent the copied
connection profile from being chosen by NM, set
connection.autoconnect=false for this connection profile.
With this implementation, there is also no need to check if znet is
used beforehand.
Note
1. ccw_init doesn't care if SUBCHANNELS, NETTYPE and LAYER2 comes from
an active NM profile or not. If an inactive NM profile contains this
info, it needs to be copied to the kdump initrd as well.
2. "rd.znet_ifname=$_netdev:${SUBCHANNELS}" is no longer needed needed
because now there is no renaming of s390x network interfaces when
reusing NetworkManager profiles. rd.znet_ifname was introduced in
commit ce0305d ("Add a new option 'rd.znet_ifname' in order to use it

A NIC may get a different name in the kdump kernel from 1st kernel
in cases like,
- kernel assigned network interface names are not persistent e.g. [1]
- there is an udev rule to rename the NIC in the 1st kernel but the
kdump initrd may not have that rule e.g. [2]
If NM tries to match a NIC with a connection profile based on NIC name
i.e. connection.interface-name, it will fail the above bases. A simple
solution is to ask NM to match a connection profile by MAC address.
Note we don't need to do this for user-created NICs like vlan, bridge and
bond.
An remaining issue is passing the name of a NIC via the kdumpnic dracut
command line parameter which requires passing ifname=<interface>:<MAC> to
have fixed NIC name. But we can simply drop this requirement. kdumpnic
is needed because kdump needs to get the IP by NIC name and use the IP
to created a dumping folder named "{IP}-{DATE}". We can simply pass the
IP to the kdump kernel directly via a new dracut command line parameter
kdumpip instead. In addition to the benefit of simplifying the code,
there are other three benefits brought by this approach,
- make use of whatever network to transfer the vmcore. Because as long
as we have the network to we don't care which NIC is active.
- if obtained IP in the kdump kernel is different from the one in the
1st kernel. "{IP}-{DATE}" would better tell where the dumped vmcore
comes from.

issue of there are two interfaces with the same MAC address for

6f9235887f ("module-setup.sh: enable
vlan on team interface") skips establishing teaming network by mistake.
Although it could use one of slave netifs to establish connection
to transfer vmcore to remote fs, it breaks the implicit assumption of
creating an identical network topology to the 1st kernel.

Currently, kexec-tools tries to reset crashkernel when using anaconda to
install the system. But grubby isn't ready and complains that,

kexec-tools is supposed to update the kernel crashkernel parameter after
package upgrade. Unfortunately, the posttrans RPM scriptlet doesn't
distinguish between package install and upgrade. This patch skips
reset_crashkernel_after_update as similar to e218128e ("Only try to
reset crashkernel for osbuild during package install").

When the dump target is lvm2 thinp, if we didn't mount
the dump target first, get_fs_type_from_target will get
empty output:
Before mount:
$ get_fs_type_from_target /dev/vg00/thinlv
After mount:
$ mount /dev/vg00/thinlv /mnt
$ get_fs_type_from_target /dev/vg00/thinlv
ext4
As a result, kdumpctl start will fail with:
$ kdumpctl start
kdump: Dump target is invalid
kdump: Starting kdump: [FAILED]
This patch fix the issue by bypassing check_fs_modified
when the dump target is lvm2 thinp.

F36 has dropped support on ifcfg and as a result current network tests
fails. Use .nmconnection to set up test network instead.

With commit fa9201b2 ("fadump: isolate fadump initramfs image within
the default one"), initramfs image gets to hold two images, one for
production kernel boot purpose and the other for capture kernel boot.
Most files are common among the two images. Retain file modification
time to replace duplicate files with hardlinks and save space. Also,
avoid unnecessarily compressing fadump image that is decompressed
immediately anyway.

With commit fa9201b2 ("fadump: isolate fadump initramfs image within
the default one"), initramfs image gets to hold two squash images, one
for production kernel boot purpose and the other for capture kernel
boot. Having separate images improved reliability for both production
kernel and capture kernel boot scenarios, but the size of initramfs
image became considerably larger.
Instead of having squash images, compressing $initdir without using
squash images reduced the size of initramfs image for fadump case by
around 30%. So, avoid using squash for fadump case.

Previously, all files within $TESTCASEDIR/$test_case are regarded
as shell script files for testing. However there might be config
files under the directory. So let's only iterate the .sh files.
