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

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 kexec-tools always depend on dump target to be mounted, which
caused some inconvenience for setup.
So for user configured target, allow kdump to start and build initramfs
even if target is not mounted.
When a mounted user configured target is used, the behavior is not
changed.
When a unmounted user configured target is used, mkdumprd will look for
corresponding mount info in fstab, and a entry with noauto option is
founded, mkdumprd will try to mount it inplace with optoins specified
in fstab and do basic checks on the device, then umount it.
If there is no fstab entry, mkdumprd will try to mount it in temporary
path with defaults option, do same basic check and umount it.
If there is a fstab entry but "noauto" option is not used, then there
must be some reason that the target device is not mounted, mkdumprd will
error out.
When path based target is used, there is no behavior change.

The right way is only check two things, and do nothing else:
1. The path exists within the target;
2. The target is large enough to hold to contain the vmcore.

UEFI Secure boot is a signature verification mechanism, designed to
prevent malicious code being loaded and executed at the early boot
stage. This makes sure that code executed is trusted by firmware.
Previously, with kexec_file_load() interface, kernel prevents unsigned
kernel image from being loaded if secure boot is enabled. So kdump will
detect whether secure boot is enabled firstly, then decide which interface
is chosen to execute, kexec_load() or kexec_file_load(). Otherwise unsigned
kernel loading will fail if secure boot enabled, and kexec_file_load() is
entered.
Now, the implementation of kexec_file_load() is adjusted in below commit.
With this change, if CONFIG_KEXEC_SIG_FORCE is not set, unsigned kernel
still has a chance to be allowed to load under some conditions.
commit 99d5cadfde2b ("kexec_file: split KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG into KEXEC_SIG
and KEXEC_SIG_FORCE")
And in the current Fedora, the CONFIG_KEXEC_SIG_FORCE is not set, only the
CONFIG_KEXEC_SIG and CONFIG_BZIMAGE_VERIFY_SIG are set on x86_64 by default.
It's time to spread kexec_file_load() onto all systems of x86_64, including
Secure-boot platforms and legacy platforms. Please refer to the following
form.

This reverts commit 2f4149f276.
It is not proved to be right to get auto6 or dhcpv6 in 1st kernel,
pingfan is working on a dracut fix to do some fallback in 2nd kernel initramfs.
So revert this commit
Kdump always use _proto=dhcp for both ipv4 and ipv6. But for ipv6
the dhcp address assignment is not like ipv4, there are different ways
for it, stateless and stateful, see below document:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/IPv6Guide
In case stateless, kernel can do the address assignment, dracut use
_proto=auto6; for stateful case, dracut use _proto=dhcp6.
We do not see bug reports before because for the most auto6 cases
kernel assign ip address before dhclient, kdump just happened to work.
Here we use auto6 if possible first. And we take the assumption that
host use auto6 if /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/$netdev/autoconf is enabled

Dracut has "--hostonly-cmdline" which can generate cmdlines(if any)
regarding the dump target, it's an existing way for us to use to
simplify the code. E.g. We already removed generate_lvm_cmdlines(),
to use "--hostonly-cmdline".
But "--hostonly-cmdline" has other issues(e.g. BZ1451717), it adds
needless devices for kdump like root device.
Now dracut supports "--no-hostonly-default-device" which enables
us to only add the kdump target, which can avoid needless devices
being recognized under kdump. Thus "--hostonly-cmdline" side effects
can be avoided with the help of "--no-hostonly-default-device".
This patch applies dracut's "--hostonly-cmdline" together with
"--no-hostonly-default-device" to achieve above-mentioned purpose.

There are some complaints about nfs kdump that users must mount
nfs beforehand, which may cause some overhead to nfs server.
For example, there're thounsands of diskless clients deployed with
nfs dumping, each time the client is boot up, it will trigger
kdump rebuilding so will mount nfs, thus resulting in thousands
of nfs request concurrently imposed on the same nfs server.
We introduce a new way of specifying mount information via the
already-existent "dracut_args" directive(so avoid adding extra
directives in /etc/kdump.conf), we will skip all the filesystem
mounting and checking stuff for it. So it can be used in the
above-mentioned nfs scenario to avoid severe nfs server overhead.
Specifically, if there is any "--mount" information specified via
"dracut_args" in /etc/kdump.conf, always use it as the final mount
without any validation(mounting or checking like mount options,
fs size, etc), so users are expected to ensure its correctness.
NOTE:
-Only one mount target is allowed using "dracut_args" globally.
-Dracut will create <mountpoint> if it doesn't exist in kdump kernel,
<mountpoint> must be specified as an absolute path.
-Users should do a test first and ensure it works because kdump does
not prepare the mount or check all the validity.

If dracut watchdog module is enabled then, it includes kernel watchdog
module of active watchdog device in initramfs.
kdump.conf has an option to modify dracut_args. So, if an user passes "-a
watchdog" in dracut_args then dracut will add kernel watchdog module of
active watchdog device in initramfs.
Since, kexec-tools always requires to add kernel watchdog module of active
watchdog device in initramfs, therefore even when an user does not pass any
watchdog option and there exists at least one active watchdog device then
also kexec-tools adds "-a watchdog" in dracut args.
Therefore, if an user does not want to add kernel watchdog module in
initramfs then the person must pass "-o watchdog" in dracut_args.
