The parameter either6 is introduced to dracut by

40network: introduce ip=either6 option
But it turns out needless.
On a sensible ipv6 network environment, DHCPv6 can not work properly alone,
because DHCPv6 protocol has no info about the gateway.
An reasonalbe process of ipv6 address set up should look like
host send: Router Solicitation
router reply: Router Advertisements
"Router Advertisements" carries many info like gateway, and if it has
other-config flag set, it carries DNS info etc. As for DHCPv6 address
allocation, it will only start if "Router Advertisements" has the 'managed'
flag set, which directs the host to start a stateful address allocation
from DHCPv6 server.

Dracut has switch network-legacy to network-manager by default, which makes
vlan on team easy. So it can be enabled.
Testing network topology with two VMs.
VM1
ens2-\ /----> VLAN8 (192.168.120.50)
---> team0
ens3-/ (192.168.122.10)
VM2
ens2-\ /----> VLAN8 (192.168.120.100)
---> team0
ens3-/ (192.168.122.20)
Both of ens2/ens3 in VM1/VM2 are connected to virbr0.
During test, dump target is set as root@192.168.120.100:/var/crash
then crashing in VM1

Currently get_bind_mount_source will not work on btrfs, that's because
this function relies on findmnt to detect bind mount.
For a bind mount, findmnt will return different value with "-v" option.
For example, we have /dev/sdc mounted on /mnt/source, and then bind
mount /mnt/source/sub/path to /mnt/bind:
$ findmnt /mnt/bind
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/mnt/bind /dev/sdc[/sub/path] ext4 rw,relatime,seclabel
$ findmnt -v /mnt/bind
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/mnt/bind /dev/sdc ext4 rw,relatime,seclabel
But findmnt also return similiar result for btrfs, on a fresh installed
Fedora 33:
$ findmnt /
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/ /dev/sdb7[/root] btrfs rw,relatime,seclabel,ssd,space_cache,subvolid=256,subvol=/root
$ findmnt -v /
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/ /dev/sdb7 btrfs rw,relatime,seclabel,ssd,space_cache,subvolid=256,subvol=/root
The [...] indicator will contain the subvol of btrfs as well. And if
it's bind mounted under btrfs, it will contain a mixup of btrfs subvol
and the actuall fsroot.
And also, if the bind mount source device is not mounted on /,
get_bind_mount_source will also not work.
So rewrite the get_bind_mount_source function, make it work in every
cases.
Tested with:
- Silverblue's bind mount
- Bind mount with source device mounted not under /
- Btrfs
- Bind mount and source device is Btrfs

Remove the --real when calling findmnt.
The option is only useful in capture kernel, to avoid
`findmnt` returning the pseudo 'rootfs' for non mounted path.
example, when /kdumproot/mnt/ is not mounted:
kdump:/# findmnt --target /kdumproot/mnt
TARGET SOURCE FSTYPE OPTIONS
/ rootfs rootfs rw,size=61368k,nr_inodes=15342
kdump:/# findmnt --target /kdumproot/mnt
<return 1 and empty output>
But this function will make findmnt also return empty value for bind
mount. So remove it and add an extra if statement for second kernel.

Most watchdogs have a parameter pretimeout, if set to non-zero, it means
before the watchdog really reset the system, it will try to panic the
kernel first, so kdump could kick in, or, just print a panic stacktrace
and then kernel should reset it self.
If we are already in kdump kernel, this is not really helpful, only
increase kernel hanging chance. And it also make thing become complex
as some watchdog triggers the kernel panic in NMI context, which
could also hang the kernel in strange ways, and fail the watchdog it
self. So just disable this parameter.
Also for hpwdt, it have another parameter kdumptimeout, which is
just designed for first kernel. The default behaviour is the watchdog
will simply stop working if timeouted, trigger a panic, and leave the
kernel to kdump. Again, if we are already in kdump this is not helpful.
So also disable that.

Currently the watchdog detection code is broken already, it
get the list of active watchdog drivers, then check if they are
set in the /etc/cmdline.d/* as preload module. But after we
switched to use squash module, /etc/cmdline.d/* is not directly visible.
So just detect whether current needed driver is installed.

The driver detection have nothing to do with fs detection, and currently
if the dump target is raw, the block driver detection is skipped which
is wrong. Just split it out and run the block driver detection when dump
target is fs or raw.

The dracut module is opportunistic about using the built-in squashfs
support only when available, but the spec file hard requires it. Demote
it to a weak dep to truly make it optional.
This caters to environments which strive to stay minimal, like FCOS and
RHCOS. See https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-config/pull/708 for
details.
Because otherwise, `kdumpctl start` will fail anyway. This makes it
easier to enable kdump by simply adding the mandatory karg and leaving
the service enabled.
This reverts commit fa8aa52d94.

Previously journalctl logs are directly dropped to save memory, but this
make journalctl unusable in kdump kernel and diffcult to debug. So
instead just don't let it read kmsg but keep other logs stored as volatile.
Kernel message are already stored in the kernel log ring buffer,
no need to let journalctl make a copy, especially when in kdump
kernel, ususlly there won't be too much kernel log overlapping

Instead of read and parse the kdump.conf multiple times, only read once
and use a single loop to handle the error check, which is faster.
Also check for any duplicated config otion, and error out if there are
duplicated ones.
Now it checks for following errors, most are unchanged from before:
- Any duplicated config options. (New added)
- Deprecated/Invalid kdump config option.
- Duplicated kdump target, will have a different error message of
other duplicated config options.
- Duplicated --mount options in dracut_args.
- Empty config values. All kdump configs should be in
"<config_opt> <config_value>" format.
- Check If raw target is used in fadump mode.
And removed detect of lines start with space, it will not break kdump
anyway.
The performance is measurable better than before for the check_config
function.
