nfs service will append extra mount options to kernel mount options.
Those extra options represent current mounting details, but they may
not suitable for the second kernel. IP address may change, and we only
enable a single network stack (v4/v6), if nfs prefered another
network stack, inheriting the options will force nfs service to use
previous network stack and disable nfs's fallback mechanic and fail.
As nfs service have the capability to negotiate required protocols
and detect proper IP address, just drop those options and let nfs
automatically adapt the possible change in the second kernel.

If nofail or nobootwait option is used, systemd's local-fs.target won't
wait for the mounting to complete, and kdump might start before the
required mount point is ready and then fail.
The host might use nofail for reasons like the device may get unpluged,
and if the device is not mounted and it is set as kdump target as the same
time then kdump service won't start, we will never enter the capture
kernel. By the time we have entered the capture kernel, the target device
must exist and ready to use, or else kdump would fail anyway. So force
remove nofail and nobootwait option.
Also drop rootflags=nofail option, as we don't depend on rootfs anymore
if the dump target don't required it. So the nofail option is no longer
needed.

Introduce tri-state hostonly mode
multipath-hostonly module was introduced only for kdump, because kdump
need a more strict hostonly policy for multipath device to save memory.
Now multipath module will provide the behave we wanted by setting
hostonly mode to strict.

It is not a problem actually, sorry for the noise.
Although root set different "PATH" can lead to wrong script, but it is
different with what the bug described "current working dir" and it is
not a problem worth an update
Since we call dracut directly on current working directory "." so it is
possible to trick root to call fake code.
Thus move to use absolute path instead.

Currently in Fedora/RedHat dracut installs its fedora.conf.example
as the default config file, in which sysloglvl is set 5. This leads
to maxloglvl=5 in dracut calls, making unnecessary lsinitrd calls
during initramfs builds by kdump.
This patch makes use of
https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/pull/272
and disables lsinitrd logging by giving "-q" option to dracut,
eliminating unnecessary lsinitrd calls in dracut.

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".

Since the current dracut of Fedora already supports not always
mounting root device, we can remove "root=X" from the command
line directly, and always get the dump target specified in

at root filesystem, we will add the root mount info explicitly
from kdump side instead of from dracut side.
For example, in case of nfs/ssh/usb/raw/etc(non-root) dumping,
kdump will not mount the unnecessary root fs after this change.
This patch removes "root=X" via the "KDUMP_COMMANDLINE_REMOVE"
(if "default dump_to_rootfs" is specified, don't remove "root=X"),
and mounts non-root target under "/kdumproot", the root target
still under "/sysroot"(to be align with systemd sysroot.mount).
After removing "root=X", we now add root fs mount information

Since, dracut-module-setup.sh (which is dracut's

will execute 99kdumpbase module, it's own get_persistent_dev() function is
overwritten by kdump's version. If any other dracut module calls
get_persistent_dev() thereafter then, kdump's version is executed, which was

Customer found when specify "noauto" option in fstab for nfs mount,
dump failed.
The reason is if "noauto" option is specified in fstab, the mount entry
in fstab related to dump target will passed to dracut and stored in
kdump initrd. Then during kdump kernel boots this entry containing
"noauto" will be ignored by mount service. This cause dump failing.
In fact with "noauto" not only nfs dump will fail, non-root disk dump
will fail too. root disk dump can dump successfully since root disk can
always be mounted by systemd.
So now "noauto" need be filtered out when the fstab entry corresponding
to dump target contains "noauto".

kdump will raise the warning in Atomic, if the path is bind mounted
directory. The reason why causes this issue is kdump cannt parse the
bind mounted directory.
To correct dumping target, we can construct the real dumping path in
Atomic, which contains two part, one bind mounted path, the other
specified dump target.
Following is an example:
-bash-4.2# cat /etc/kdump.conf | grep ^path
path /var/crash
-bash-4.2# findmnt /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root[/ostree/deploy/rhel-atomic-host/var]
-bash-4.2# findmnt -v /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root
Then we can found it that the real path of dumping vmcore is
/ostree/deploy/rhel-atomic-host/var/crash.
To fix this issue, we can replace the target path as the real path which
is from above parsing.

Any block device can be mounted multiply on the different mount point.
Once a mount point is mounted in bind mode, the general mount point can
be unmounted. Thus kdump would not find the general mount point[1] to
handle the path.
The mount point, which is as general mount point, will be got by
"fintmnt" previously. But the mntpoint may be incorrect, if the mntpoint
is bind mount.
In order to fix it to support bind mounted in atomic, we will add a
judgement to comfirm the mntpoint is bind mounted, or not.
For general mount, returning path is like following, if we use
"findmnt". The returning is same as "findmnt -v".
-bash-4.2# findmnt /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root
But for bind mount, returning path is like following, if we use
"fintmnt".
-bash-4.2# findmnt /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root[/ostree/deploy/rhel-atomic-host/var]
Use "findmnt -v" is like this:
-bash-4.2# findmnt -v /var | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root
So we can determine the bind mount, if the returning is different
between "findmnt" and "findmnt -v".
[1] general mount point is a directory without being in bind mounted
mode, just a normal directory.

For above case, kdump fails to check the fs size, due to the incorrect
path.

Jerry Hoemann reported a bug that a mount will fail when he installed
a system with separate "/" "/var" and "/var/crash". That means root
disk /dev/a mounted on /, and another disk /dev/b is mounted on /var,
then the 3rd disk /dev/c mounted on /var/crash. Then kdump will fail
since mount will fail.
This is because the mount information will be written into
/$mntimage/etc/fstab like below. And the dump target is /dev/c. However
/dev/b is not related in kdump, its mount info is not necessary and not
saved. So when go into kdump kernel, it will find there's not a crash
dir under /sysroot/var. And in current implementation, if not a root
disk dump, sysroot is a read-only mount, no dir can be created in this
situation.
/dev/disk/by-uuid/cdcf007a-b623-45ee-8d73-a8be0d372440 /sysroot/var/crash xfs rw,relatime,...,x-initrd.mount 0 2
So in this patch, change the mount behavior to fix this bug. If dump
target is a root disk, mount point is /sysroot. If dump target is not
root, just mount it to /kdumproot/$_target. Now it works.

Previously if a target need mount info, the relevant mount options
are got from /proc/mounts by below command:

which contains each option. Some options have value specified by
user, some options just have default value if user doesn't specify.
If some mount options are not supported very well, bugs occured.
The more options, the worse.
So in this patch, we try to check fstab to get mount options firstly,

Now when mount in /etc/fstab fails, systemd would not consider it as
critical and it would continue to boot. In fact, emergency service is
triggered, but not in a isolation mode, and it results in the emergency
service getting shutdown at some point later of the boot process. We
need isolation otherwise we won't see any emergency service.
That is because in kdump initramfs, mount units specified in /etc/fstab
are required by "local-fs.target". When any of these mounts fails,
local-fs.target fails.
For kdump initramfs, we need to isolate to emergency service on any of
the mount failure, that said, every service should be stopped and onlu
emergency service would run. But local-fs.target won't trigger that on
its failure. That means in case of mount failure, local-fs.target also
enters failure state, but all the service will continue without any
interruption.
After digging looking into source code of systemd-fstab-generator. I
find "x-initrd.mount" using in initramfs mount, will make the mount
units required by "initrd-root-fs.target" rather than it's used to be
"local-fs.target".
"initrd-root-fs.target" is suitable to us because if it fails, it will
isolate to emergency service. That means in case of any mount failure,
the emergeny service will start and everything else will stop. We want
this effect because we need to take kdump fail-safe action when there's
a mount failure.
From systemd unit point of view, "initrd-root-fs.target" has
OnFailureIsolate=yes, but "local-fs.target" doesn't. From
systemd.unit(5):
OnFailureIsolate=
Takes a boolean argument. If true, the unit listed in OnFailure=
will be enqueued in isolation mode, i.e. all units that are not its
dependency will be stopped. If this is set, only a single unit may
be listed in OnFailure=. Defaults to false.

path /mnt/nfs
in mount info,
/dev/vdb on /mnt type ext4 (rw,relatime,seclabel,data=ordered)
Then vmcore will be saved in /nfs of /dev/vdb.
In this patch, pass mount info to dracut in this case if separate
disk is mounted on any tier of "path".
Meanwhile introduce a function in kdump-lib.sh to check if any
target is specified.
v4->v5:
Per Vivek's comment, add a helper function is_fs_dump_target.
Then is_user_configured_dump_target is rewrite with these helper
functions.
v5->v7:
No v6 for this patch. Just use newly introduced function
is_fs_type_nfs in handle_default_dump_target.

kdump need create the dir specified in "path" formerly if it does not
exist. Now change the behavior to be that ueser takes charge of the
"path", make sure "path" has been created, especially when separate disk
is mounted on this "path".
Also introduce 2 helper functions to help check the existence of path.

These utility function will be shared by several files, they are all
operation related to mount stuff.
Meantime define DEFAULT_PATH="/var/crash".
v5-> v6:
Since in rhel7 nfs4 becomes default nfs version, and its fstype is
nfs4. So change the implementation of get_fs_type_from_target(),
whatever fstype returned from findmount, just echo nfs as fstype for all
nfs version.
v6->v7:
Introduce is_fs_type_nfs to check if fstype is nfs or nfs4 per Vivek's
idea.

Now when dump target is not specified, separate disk can't be mounted on
"path", e.g /var/crash. However if target is specified, whatever the default
fail action is set, mkdumprd should go ahead and not be failed.
In check_block_dump_target(), the check only on disk is not complete,
NFS and ssh need be filtered too. So introduce is_user_configured_dump_target
to check this.

When kdump service is started, /sbin/mkdump checks if there is enough
free space on the ssh server using "df -P" command.
However, the slight difference in the first line of the "df -P" command
output for English and Japanese environment causes a problem.
-----
# LANG=en_us.utf8 df -P | head -1
Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mount on
# LANG=ja_JP.utf8 df -P | head -1
ファイルシス 1024-ブロック 使用 使用可 容量 マウント位置
-----
Because the number of words is 7 in the English output and 6 in
Japanese, the subsequent awk command could not correctly locate the
free space field and results in an error.
One way to fix it is use df -P /var/crash|tail -1, but for remote restricted
shell pipe is not supported. Thus fix this by print field NF-2 in awk script.

Let's omit resume module when building kdump initramfs, because:
- kdump don't want to resume
- it would pull in the swap device dependencie
Tested on Fedora20. This change doesn't break anything.

kdump now dumps vmcore to root partition by default in SAVE_PATCH
directory, e.g /var/crash defaultly. This is problematic when another
disk is mounted on /var or /var/crash, because the saved vmcore will
he hidden after dump in 1st kernel. This also has the potential of
blindly filling the root file system without a clue as to why.
Now fix this by failing the loading of kdump kernel if dump target
is root fs by default while different disk is mounted on save path.

In function get_block_dump_target(), code block to get user configured
dump disk and get root fs device can be reused by other places. Now
abstract and wrap them into 2 new functions:
get_user_configured_dump_disk()
get_root_fs_device()
And put them into kdump-lib.sh.
Meanwhile change the get_block_dump_target() accordingly.

Description:
Currently kdumpctl will fail to create kdump initramfs and start
kdump service while dump target is encrypted. This restriction is
too strict.
Resolution:
Just warn user that encrypted device is in dump path and second
kernel will wait on console for password to be entered.

When we're parsing kdump.conf, we read it from stdin in a while
loop statement. If we don't use ssh -n within the loop, all rest of the
kdump.conf options, which are in stdin, will be eaten by ssh.

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.
