Ifcfg depends on network module, which is quite large and useless
when using a local dump target. Also we don't really need ifcfg to
setup network interfaces. So just remove it.
On fedora22, the uncompressed dumprd would decrease about 20MB when
using a local dump target. A regression testing is also conducted with
targets of nfs and ssh.

Dracut will die in the situation that dracut detects to use dhcp to
setup ip address, but kdump passes the ip address to it.
In commit 7ea50dc7a3, we start to use
option permanent to get the ip address in kdump_static_ip. If the
network is setuped by static, we will get the ip address, otherwise
getting none.
In commit c994a80698 which it used to
support ipv6 protocol, I miss the option permanent.
This patch is not a fixing patch, just pulls back something to make

Moving isys.total_memory() call to class method to avoid installation hangs.
It is possible because totoal_memory will call log.info which need log lock.
but some loging function need import gettext module which need import lock.
Thus deadlock could happen.

Kdump will parse the hostname to get the ip address, if hostname is
specfied in /etc/kdump.conf. We will get the ip address(ipv4 or ipv6,
according to the DNS server) by using "getent hosts".
For now, it is more reasonable that we shall get all of the ip
address(including ipv4 and ipv6 address) which point to the hostname by
using "getent ahosts". And we will prefer to use the ipv4 address, if
both ipv4 and ipv6 address work.
The reason why we choose the ipv4 as preferred address is to solve the
issue kdump will fail to connect the hostname machine(parsed as ipv6
address), due to the DNS server is ipv4 address in 2nd kernel.

Previously, Kdump will save route to setup the network route in the 2nd
kernel for ipv4 protocol. To support ipv6 protocol, make Kdump fetch
correct nexthop, since the ruturning format is different.
In order to enhance kdump to support ipv6, support the static ip for
ipv6 protocol, which ipv4 has supported already.
Introduce a new lib function get_remote_host which is used to factor out
the ip address(ipv4 or ipv6) and hostname in /etc/kdump.conf.
Introduce a new lib function is_ipv6_address which is used to make sure
whether the passed ip address is ipv4 or ipv6.
Introduce a new lib function is_hostname which is used to confirm

We have added *wdt in kdump initramfs, but to improve it more we can do below
(1) load wdt drivers as early as possible so that we can save time before wdt timeout
some drivers like iTCO_wdt can stop the watchdog while driver initialization, so
it can give more chance for kdump.
It can save time especially in case some drivers take long time to init, like
some storage and networking cards.
(2) add only used wdt drivers in kdump initrd instead of add *wdt
wdt driver layer need a change so that we can get the proper driver name from
/dev/watchdog. Question to this is are we sure 1st kernel use /dev/watchdog
instead of /dev/watchdog1? It need more investigation.
(3) in case a driver can not stop (nowayout?) during module_init, we need load it
as early as possible and kick the watchdog. Likely we can use systemd default
watchdog functionality.
This patch is about to address (1), and specially for iTCO_wdt, we only tested
iTCO_wdt, thus in this patch only add this driver, need investigate on other drivers
later to see if other drivers works in this way.

Update kdump icon again, Xiaoxue created a new one with different color

Also add kdump.svg to rpm %files section
Otherwise rpmbuild will not package it in rpm
In RHEL6, vmcore file was created if panic occurred during shutdown. This was
very useful for analyzing problems during the shutdown sequence.
However, in RHEL7, vmcore will not be created after kdump service is stopped.
This will make it very difficult to solve problems during shutodwn.
The reason why kdump fails to dump vmcore is kdump is stopped too early during
the power is off.
If add "DefaultDependencies=no" to the [Unit] of kdump.service , kdump will
not be stopped by systemd after shutdown command.
The manpage of systemd.unit about the DefaultDependencies:
If true, (the default), a few default dependencies will implicitly be created
for the unit. The actual dependencies created depend on the unit type. For
example, for service units, these dependencies ensure that the service is
started only after basic system initialization is completed and is properly
terminated on system shutdown.
The manpage about basic.target:
A special target unit covering basic boot-up.
systemd automatically adds dependencies of the types Requires= and After= for
this target unit to all services (except for those with DefaultDependencies=no).
Usually this should pull-in all mount points, swap devices, sockets, timers,
and path units and other basic initialization necessary for general purpose
daemons.
So "DefaultDependencies=no" can keep kdump not stopped too early. But to make
it start when power on, add After=basic.target will be better.
The systemd-devel mailed to me: using DefaultDependencies=no but also
After=basic.target will make sure the service isn't started too early (but kept
until systemd's final process killing spree).

Customer found when specify "noauto" option in fstab for nfs mount,
dump failed.
The reason is if "noauto" option is specified in fstab, the mount entry
in fstab related to dump target will passed to dracut and stored in
kdump initrd. Then during kdump kernel boots this entry containing
"noauto" will be ignored by mount service. This cause dump failing.
In fact with "noauto" not only nfs dump will fail, non-root disk dump
will fail too. root disk dump can dump successfully since root disk can
always be mounted by systemd.
So now "noauto" need be filtered out when the fstab entry corresponding
to dump target contains "noauto".

Kdump will dump the vmcore in incorrect target directory, if the target
is bind mounted.
As commented in the previous patch, we can construct the real path in
Atomic, which contains two part, one bind mounted path, the other
specified dump path. Then replace the path as the real path in
/etc/kdump.conf.
findmnt can find the real path for nfs, although the path is in bind
mode. So nfs can work well with the path in bind mode.

kdump will raise the warning in Atomic, if the path is bind mounted
directory. The reason why causes this issue is kdump cannt parse the
bind mounted directory.
To correct dumping target, we can construct the real dumping path in
Atomic, which contains two part, one bind mounted path, the other
specified dump target.
Following is an example:
-bash-4.2# cat /etc/kdump.conf | grep ^path
path /var/crash
-bash-4.2# findmnt /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root[/ostree/deploy/rhel-atomic-host/var]
-bash-4.2# findmnt -v /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root
Then we can found it that the real path of dumping vmcore is
/ostree/deploy/rhel-atomic-host/var/crash.
To fix this issue, we can replace the target path as the real path which
is from above parsing.

Any block device can be mounted multiply on the different mount point.
Once a mount point is mounted in bind mode, the general mount point can
be unmounted. Thus kdump would not find the general mount point[1] to
handle the path.
The mount point, which is as general mount point, will be got by
"fintmnt" previously. But the mntpoint may be incorrect, if the mntpoint
is bind mount.
In order to fix it to support bind mounted in atomic, we will add a
judgement to comfirm the mntpoint is bind mounted, or not.
For general mount, returning path is like following, if we use
"findmnt". The returning is same as "findmnt -v".
-bash-4.2# findmnt /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root
But for bind mount, returning path is like following, if we use
"fintmnt".
-bash-4.2# findmnt /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root[/ostree/deploy/rhel-atomic-host/var]
Use "findmnt -v" is like this:
-bash-4.2# findmnt -v /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root
So we can determine the bind mount, if the returning is different
between "findmnt" and "findmnt -v".
[1] general mount point is a directory without being in bind mounted
mode, just a normal directory.

findmnt uses the option "-v, --nofsroot" to exclude the [/dir] in the

Now kdump cannt parse the path correctly, if the path contains
duplicated "/". Following is an example to explain it detail. (the
directory /mnt is a mount point which is mounted a block device)

/sbin/mkdumprd: line 239: [: -lt: unary operator expected
kexec: loaded kdump kernel
Starting kdump: [OK]
For above case, kdump fails to check the fs size, due to the incorrect
path.
In kdump code flow, we will cut out the mount point(/mnt) from the
path(//mnt/var/crash). But the mount point cannt match the path, because
of the duplicated "/".
To fix it, we will strip the duplicated "/" firstly.

User complains that kdump_post script doesn't execute after mount

Hence add it in this patch.
Surely the function do_kdump_post need be moved into kdump-lib-initramfs.sh
to be a common function.
