Wait for the network to be truly ready before dumping vmcore
nm-wait-online-initrd.service installed by dracut's 35-networkmanager
module calls nm-online with "-s" which means it returns immediately when
NetworkManager logs "startup complete". Thus it doesn't truly wait for
network connectivity to be established [1]. Wait for the network to be
truly ready before dumping vmcore. There are two benefits brought by
this approach,
- ssh/nfs dumping won't fail because of that the network is not
ready e.g. [2][3]
- users don't need to use workarounds like rd.net.carrier.timeout to
make sure the network is ready

Address the cases where a NIC has a different name in kdump kernel
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.
- without passing ifname=<interface>:<MAC> to kdump initrd, the
issue of there are two interfaces with the same MAC address for
Azure Hyper-V NIC SR-IOV [3] is resolved automatically.

commit bea6143178

Date: Sat Oct 8 14:53:21 2022 +0800
Fix the sync issue for dump_fs
Previously the sync for dump_fs is problematic, it always
return success according to man 2 sync. So it cannot detect
the error of the dump target is full and not all of vmcore
data been written back the disk, which will leave the vmcore
imcomplete and report misleading log as "saving vmcore
complete".
In this patch, we will use "sync -f vmcore" instead, which
will return error if syncfs on the dump target fails. In
this way, vmcore sync related failures, such as autoextend
of lvm2 thinpool fails, can be detected and handled properly.

virtiofs support for kexec-tools
This patch add virtiofs support for kexec-tools by introducing a new option
for /etc/kdump.conf:
virtiofs myfs
Where myfs is a variable tag name specified in qemu cmdline
"-device vhost-user-fs-pci,tag=myfs".
The patch covers the following cases:
1) Dumping VM's vmcore to a virtiofs shared directory;
2) When the VM's rootfs is a virtiofs shared directory and dumping the
VM's vmcore to its subdirectory, such as /var/crash;
3) The combination of case 1 & 2: The VM's rootfs is a virtiofs shared
directory and dumping the VM's vmcore to another virtiofs shared
directory.
Case 2 & 3 need dracut >= 057, otherwise VM cannot boot from virtiofs
shared rootfs. But it is not the issue of kexec-tools.

Merge kdump-error-handler.sh into kdump.sh
kdump-error-handler.sh does nothing except calling three functions,
it can be easily merged into kdump.sh by using a parameter to run the
error handling routine.
kdump-lib-initramfs.sh was created to hold the three shared functions
and related code, so by merging these two files, kdump-lib-initramfs.sh
can be simplified by a lot.
Following up commits will clean up kdump-lib-initramfs.sh.

kdump-lib.sh: add a config format and read helper
Add a helper `kdump_read_conf` to replace read_strip_comments.
`kdump_read_conf` does a few more things:
- remove trailing spaces.
- format the content, remove duplicated spaces between name and value.
- read from KDUMP_CONFIG_FILE (/etc/kdump.conf) directly, avoid pasting
"/etc/kdump.conf" path everywhere in the code.
- check if config file exists, just in case.
Also unify the environmental variable, now KDUMP_CONFIG_FILE stands for
the default config location.
This helps avoid some shell pitfalls about spaces when reading config.

Fix incorrect vmcore permissions when dumped through ssh
Previously when dumping vmcore to a remote machine through ssh,
the files are created remotely and file permissions are taken
from the default umask value, which making the files accessible to
anyone on the remote machine.
This patch fixed the security issue by setting a customized umask value
before the file creation on the remote machine.
