If the dump target is the root disk, kdump scripts add an entry in
/etc/fstab for root disk with /sysroot as the mount point. The root
disk, passed through root=<> kernel commandline parameter, is mounted
at /sysroot in read-only mode before switching from initial ramdisk.
So, in fadump mode, a remount of /sysroot to read-write mode is needed
to capture dump successfully, because /sysroot is already mounted as
read-only based on root=<> boot parameter.
Commit e8ef4db8ff ("Fix dump_fs mount point detection and fallback
mount") removed initialization of $_op variable, the variable holding
the options the dump target was mounted with, leading to the below
error as remount was skipped:
kdump[586]: saving to /sysroot/var/crash/127.0.0.1-2021-04-22-07:22:08/
kdump.sh[587]: mkdir: cannot create directory '/sysroot/var/crash/127.0.0.1-2021-04-22-07:22:08/': Read-only file system
kdump[589]: saving vmcore failed
Restore $_op variable initialization in dump_fs() function to fix this.

This fix bz1854037 which happens because kexec-tools generates rd.route for
eth0 instead of for kdump-eth0,
1. "rd.route=168.63.129.16:10.0.0.1:eth0 rd.route=169.254.169.254:10.0.0.1:eth0" is passed to the dracut cmdline by kexec-tools
2. In the 2rd kernel,
- dracut/modules.d/40network/net-lib.sh will write /tmp/net.route.eth0 based on rd.route
- dracut/modules.d/45ifcfg/write-ifcfg.sh will copy /tmp/net.route.eth0 to /tmp/icfg and then copytree /tmp/ifcfg to /run/initramfs/state/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts
3. NetworkManager will try to get an IP for eth0 regardless of the fact it's a slave NIC and time out
```
$ ip link show
2: kdump-eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000

Recently, dracut-network drops depedency on dhcp-client which requires
ipcalc. Thus the dependency chain
"kexec-tools -> dracut-network -> dhcp-client -> ipcalc"
is broken. When NIC is configured to a static IP, kexec-tools depended
on "ipcalc -m" to get netmask. This commit implements the shell
equivalent of "ipcalc -m".
The following test code shows cal_netmask_by_prefix is consistent with
"ipcalc -m",
#!/bin/bash
. dracut-module-setup.sh
for i in {0..128}; do
mask_expected=$(ipcalc -m fe::/$i| cut -d"=" -f2)

Sourcing logger file in kdump-lib.sh will leak kdump helper to dracut,
because module-setup.sh will source kdump-lib.sh. This will make kdump's

So include kdump-logger.sh individually and only source it where it really

enough so just source kdump-logger.sh in kdump only scripts.

Currently, if saving vmcore failed, the final failure information won't
be saved to the kexec-dmesg.log, because the action of saving the log
occurs before the final log is printed, it has no chance to save the
