Previously for solving static route issues, all routes which go
through a specific dev will be saved in 1st kernel, and then added
in 2nd kernel. Because we use below search pattern, an exception
will happen:
/sbin/ip route show | grep -v default | grep "^[[:digit:]].*via.* $_netdev"
That exception is a corner case which happened when 2 machines connected
directly by cable and the 2 network interfaces are configured in
different network subnets. E.g there are 2 machines A and B:
A:ens10 < ------ > B:ens9
A:ens10 inet 192.168.100.111/24 scope global ens10
route need be added in A:
192.168.110.0/24 dev ens10
B:ens9 inet 192.168.110.222/24 scope global ens9
route need be added in B
192.168.100.0/24 dev ens9
Now if A want to dump to B, the route "192.168.110.0/24 dev ens10"
has to be saved and added in 2nd kernel.
So in this patch "ip route get to $target" command is executed, then
an exact route can be got for going to that target. By this, static
route works and the corner case can be fixed too.

With fadump support, dracut-kdump.sh script is installed into default
initrd to capture vmcore generated by firmware assisted dump. Thus in
fadump case, the same initrd is being used for normal boot as well as
boot after system crash. Hence a device node, added by firmware while
system crashes, is checked to identify if it is a normal boot or boot
after crash to determine whether or not capture vmcore. While testing
fadump in fedora21 alpha, observed that vmcore capture is initiated
even during normal boot, inspite of this check, with the below error:

Remove this package and put eppic_makedumpfile.so and its sample

makedumpfile does dlopen() on eppic_makedumpfile.so and that does not
enforce any choice. One could either ship it in kexec-tools package or
in a subpackage. Both will work.
The real reason was that code for eppic_makedumpfile.so
(extension_eppic.c) and some eppic scripts are in upstream makedumpfile
project. And that project is distributed as part of kexec-tools package.
Now breaking down that makedumpfile in two parts and shipping all

everytime we did some changes.

In case of iscsi boot, kernel cmdline will contain ip=xxx kernel
parameter for dracut setting up iscsi root in initramfs. For example:
"root=xxx ip=192.168.3.26:::255.255.255.0:localhost.localdomain:eno19:none ..."
dracut doesn't allow duplicate ip conf for the same network card. dracut
will not ignore the either of the duplicate. Instead, it refuses to
continue:
[ 15.876306] dracut: FATAL: For argument 'ip=192.168.3.26:::255.255.255.0:localhost.localdomain:eno19:none'\n
Duplication configurations for 'eno19'
[ 16.055513] dracut: Refusing to continue ev argument for multiple ip= lines
That's why in our code we don't add a duplicate ip conf when handling
the same network card the second time. But we never consider the case
that ip conf is already added in kernel cmdline for some special
purpose, for example, iscsi boot.
Now we also look up /proc/cmdline for ip conf. If it exists, we use the
existing one. The existing one should work out of box because dracut
will handle it in second kernel like it does for first kernel. That
said, the network card will be brought up and root disk will be mounted
under /sysroot.

This patch changes restart of kdump service from cpu online/offline events
to cpu add/remove events.
Some people have complained that they are running cpu online/offline tests
at high frequency and kdump restarts at high frequency and systemd disables
the service. As a temporary fix, we committed a patch to never disable
kdump service.
In general it probably is a good idea to restart kdump service on cpu
add/remove events.
Toshi Kani confirmed following.
- File for /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/crash_notes will be created first
before ADD event goes out. That means we can not miss creating EFL notes
for newly created cpu.
- For REMOVE event files under /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/ are removed
first and then REMOVE event goes out. That means we will remove the elf
note header for removed cpu.
- There are some race conditions like a cpu is removed but system crashes
before kdump service restarts. In that case vmcore.c has to be more robust
to be able to inspect elf notes and discard empty ones.
Also it is possible that after cpu remove, crash notes memory got reused
for something else and after crash vmcore.c might see some random data.
It does basic size checks and discards elf notes if checks don't pass.
Above rance conditions can happen even with OFFLINE event and there is
no good way to remove these altogether. So making vmcore.c more robust
is the right solution here.

kexec: Provide an option to use new kexec system call
Hi,
This is v2 of the patch. Since v1, I moved syscall implemented check littler
earlier in the function as per the feedback.
Now a new kexec syscall (kexec_file_load()) has been merged in upstream
kernel. This system call takes file descriptors of kernel and initramfs
as input (as opposed to list of segments to be loaded). This new system
call allows for signature verification of the kernel being loaded.
One use of signature verification of kernel is secureboot systems where
we want to allow kexec into a kernel only if it is validly signed by
a key system trusts.
This patch provides and option --kexec-file-syscall (-s), to force use of
new system call for kexec. Default is to continue to use old syscall.
Currently only bzImage64 on x86_64 can be loaded using this system call.
As kernel adds support for more arches and for more image types, kexec-tools
can be modified accordingly.

This patch introduce a new kdump-capture.service which is used to run
kdump.sh.
kdump-capture.service has OnFailure=emergency.target and
OnFailureIsolate=yes set. When kdump.sh fails, the kdump emergency
service will be triggered and enter the error handling path.
In 2nd kernel, the default target for systemd is initrd.target, so we
put kdump-capture.service in initrd.target.wants/ and by that, system
will start kdump-capture as part of the boot process.
kdump.sh used to run in dracut-pre-pivot hook. Now kdump-capture.service
is placed after dracut-pre-pivot.service and other dependencies are all
copied from dracut-pre-pivot.service. So the start point of
kdump.sh will be almost the same as it used to be.

Now upon failure kdump script might not be called at all and it might
not be able to execute default action. It results in a hang.
Because we disable emergency shell and rely on kdump.sh being invoked
through dracut-pre-pivot hook. But it might happen that we never call
into dracut-pre-pivot hook because certain systemd targets could not
reach due to failure in their dependencies. In those cases error
handling code does not run and system hangs. For example:
sysroot-var-crash.mount --> initrd-root-fs.target --> initrd.target \
--> dracut-pre-pivot.service --> kdump.sh
If /sysroot/var/crash mount fails, initrd-root-fs.target will not be
reached. And then initrd.target will not be reached,
dracut-pre-pivot.service wouldn't run. Finally kdump.sh wouldn't run.
To solve this problem, we need to separate the error handling code from
dracut-pre-pivot hook, and every time when a failure shows up, the
separated code can be called by the emergency service.
By default systemd provides an emergency service which will drop us into
shell every time upon a critical failure. It's very convenient for us to
re-use the framework of systemd emergency, because we don't have to
touch the other parts of systemd. We can use our own script instead of
the default one.
This new scheme will overwrite emergency shell and replace with kdump
error handling code. And this code will do the error handling as needed.
Now, we will not rely on dracut-pre-pivot hook running always. Instead
whenever error happens and it is serious enough that emergency shell
needed to run, now kdump error handler will run.
dracut-emergency is also replaced by kdump error handler and it's
enabled again all the way down. So all the failure (including systemd
and dracut) in 2nd kernel could be captured, and trigger kdump error
handler.
dracut-initqueue is a special case, which calls "systemctl start
emergency" directly, not via "OnFailure=emergency". In case of failure,
emergency is started, but not in a isolation mode, which means
dracut-initqueue is still running. On the other hand, emergency will
call dracut-initqueue again when default action is dump_to_rootfs.
systemd would block on the last dracut-initqueue, waiting for the first
instance to exit, which leaves us hang. It looks like the following:
dracut-initqueue (running)
--> call dracut-emergency:
--> dracut-emergency (running)
--> kdump-error-handler.sh (running)
--> call dracut-initqueue:
--> blocking and waiting for the original instance to exit.
To fix this, I'd like to introduce a wrapper emergency service. This
emegency service will replace both the systemd and dracut emergency. And
this service does nothing but to isolate to real kdump error handler
service:
dracut-initqueue (running)
--> call dracut-emergency:
--> dracut-emergency isolate to kdump-error-handler.service
--> dracut-emergency and dracut-initqueue will both be stopped
and kdump-error-handler.service will run kdump-error-handler.sh.
In a normal failure case, this still works:
foo.service fails
--> trigger emergency.service
--> emergency.service isolates to kdump-error-handler.service
--> kdump-error-handler.service will run kdump-error-handler.sh
