In kdump kernel boot, kdump kernel is booted with memmap= and add
them into e820 map. Then ACPI is initialized and the kernel traverses
the ACPI namespace to find entries for memory device to be hot added.
This adds page table information and the kexec/kdump kernel runs out
of memory.
So in kdump kernel, hot plug memory need be disabled always, only
exact map is trusted. Now add the kernel parameter acpi_no_memhotplug
to kdump kernel cmdline.

In the remote dump case, and if fence kdump is configured, chances are
that the same network interface will be setup more than once.
One time for network dump, the other times for fence kdump. The result
is we will have two or more duplicate ip= configuration in 40ip.conf.
These are exactly duplicates, however dracut will refuse to continue and
raise a fatal error if there are duplicate configuration for the same
interface. So we have to avoid adding these duplicates.

If the system is configured fence kdump, we need to update kdump
initramfs if cluster or fence_kdump config is newer.
In RHEL7, cluster config is no longer keeping locally but stored
remotely. Fortunately we can use a pcs tool to retrieve the xml based
config and parse the last changed time from that.
/etc/sysconfig/fence_kdump is used to configure runtime arguments to
fence_kdump_send. So We have to pass the arguments to 2nd kernel.
When cluster config or /etc/sysconfig/fence_kdump is newer than local
kdump initramfs, we must rebuild initramfs to adapt changes in cluster.

[PATCH v5] Support to filter dump for kernels that use CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP.
Makedumpfile tool fails to filter dump for kernels that are build with
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP set, as it fails to do address translations
for vmemmap regions that are mapped out of zone normal. This patch
provides support in makedumpfile to do vmemmap to physical address
translations when they are mapped outside zone normal. Some kernel
symbols are needed in vmcoreinfo for this changes to be effective.
The kernel patch that adds the necessary symbols to vmcoreinfo has
been posted to linuxppc devel mailing list. This patch is influenced
by vmemmap to physical address translation support code in crash tool.
This patch has been tested successfully at all dump filtering levels
on kernels with CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP set/unset. Also, tested dump
filtering on already filtered vmcores (re-filtering).

We only allow one instance of kdump service running at each time by
flock /var/lock/kdump which is opened as fd 9 in kdumpctl script.
However a leaking fd issue has been discovered by SELinux:
When executing a specific shell command (not the shell built-in but
provided by other packages, in this case - restorecon) in kdumpctl,
current shell will fork a new subshell for executing and
the subshell will inherit open fd 9 from parent shell. And SELinux
detects that subshell is holding the open fd and consider fd 9 is
leaked.
To avoid this kind of leaking, the most easy way seems to be breaking our
kdumpctl code out into two parts:
- A top level parent shell, which is only used to deal with the lock and
invoking the subshell below.
- A 2nd tier level subshell, which is closing the inherited open fd at
very first and doing the rest of the kdumpctl job. So that it isn't
leaking fd to its subshell when executing like restorecon, etc.
To be easy to understand, the callgraph is roughly like below:
[..]
--> open(9)
--> flock(9)
--> fork
--> close(9) <-- we close 9 right here
--> main() <-- we're now doing the real job
--> [..]
--> fork()
--> restorecon <-- we don't leak fd 9 to child process
--> [..]
--> [..]
As shown above, a wrapper main() is added as the 2nd tier level shell in
this kind of call model. So we can completely avoid leaking fd to
subshell.

This is a REGRESSION issue.
At fedora makedumpfile has been updated toward v1.5.4. Unfortunately,
this version fails calculating phys_base on sadump format and then
fails converting vmcore.
x86_64 kernel is relocatable kernel and there can be a gap between
the physical address statically assigned to kernel data and texts
and the address that is really assigned to each object corresponding
to the kernel symbols. The gap is phys_base. makedump calculates the
phys_base in an ad-hoc way that comparing the addresses of some of
occurrences of "Linux kernel" strings in certain range of vmcore.
Resolution:
Fix patch has already been posted in upstream. so just back port.

Description of Problem:
In cyclic mode, makedumpfile recalculates cyclic buffer size as the
largest multiple of the largest block size managed by buddy
allocator, i.e. 4MB, smaller than the cyclic buffer size in order to
enable to process each unit of blocks managed by buddy allocator in
each cycle.
However, makedumpfile does two wrong things in the recalculations:
1) While updating size of cyclic buffer, makedumpfile doesn't update
length of range of cycle in page frame numbers, due to which, if
cyclic buffer size is updated, because cyclic buffer size is always
reduced during udpate, some buffer overrun can happen on the cyclic
buffer. This can cause segmentation violation in the worst case.
2) roundup() is used to calculate bitmap size for maximum block size
managed by buddy allocator, here divideup() is correct, due to
which, although memory filtering is not affected, cyclic buffer size
get too much aligned and less efficient.
Fix patches has already been posted and merged in makedumpfile
development devel branch.

The dumpfile header has this field, which was inherited from
the old "diskdump" facility:
struct disk_dump_header {
...
unsigned int max_mapnr; /* = max_mapnr */
...
and which, among other things, is used by the crash utility as a
delimiter to determine whether a physical address read request is
legitimate. And obviously the field cannot handle PFN values greater
than 32-bits.
The makedumpfile source code does have its own max_mapnr representation
in its DumpInfo structure in "makedumpfile.h":
struct DumpInfo {
...
unsigned long long max_mapnr; /* number of page descriptor */
...
But in its "diskdump_mod.h" file, it carries forward the old diskdump
header format, which has the 32-bit field:
struct disk_dump_header {
...
unsigned int max_mapnr; /* = max_mapnr */
...
And here in "makedumpfile.c", the inadvertent truncation occurs
when the PFN is greater than 32-bits:
int
write_kdump_header(void)
{
...
dh->max_mapnr = info->max_mapnr;

Currently we have two issues against mounting filesystems by systemd.
1. If any failure in sysroot.mount, initrd.target won't be reached.
2. If any failure in mounting /etc/fstab, initrd.target won't be reached
Our kdump.sh is in dracut-pre-pivot hook which is ordered after
initrd.target. That means if systemd doesn't reach initrd.target,
pre-pivot service will not run.
Based on above, we can conclude that in order to run kdump.sh,
initrd.target must be reached.
To fix issue 1), we can add rootflags=nofail to 2nd kernel cmdline, so
that initrd.target will not require sysroot.mount. initrd.target
wouldn't care about the failures in sysroot.mount. That means
initrd.target can always be reached whether or not sysroot.mount fails.
So when initrd.target is reached, kdump.sh can be run.
To fix issue 2), we can append "nofail" mount options to every entry in
/etc/fstab. It has almost the same affects as to sysroot.mount.
initrd.target can be reached whether or not mount /etc/fstab fails. So
when initrd.target is reached, kdump.sh can be run.
If the mount failures block kdump from working properly (for example,
the dump target isn't mounted), the error handling will be done by
"default" action specified in /etc/kdump.conf. Otherwise kdump will
ignore the mount failures and dump as expected.
