to strictly follow POSIC, this will fail.

Just use a POSIX friendly syntax instead.

760beb7e57 mkdumprd: Use DUMP_TARGET which printing error message during ssh
When building kdump initramfs for a SSH dump target, mkdumprd would
check whether it has the write permission on the SSH Server's
$DUMP_TARGET.

However $DUMP_TARGET is missing in the actual error message when the
user doesn't not have the write permission. For example:

 # kdumpctl restart
   kexec: unloaded kdump kernel
   Stopping kdump: [OK]
   Could not create temporary directory on :/home/bhsharma/test. Make
   sure user has write permission on destination
   mkdumprd: failed to make kdump initrd
   Starting kdump: [FAILED]

This patch using $1 value passed to mkdumprd, to print the
$DUMP_TARGET inside mkdir_save_path_ssh() function to
fix the issue.

476a2b50f6 makedumpfile: Introduce --check-params option
Backport from the upstream makedumpfile devel branch.

commit 989152e113bfcb4fbfbad6f3aed6f43be4455919
Author: Kazuhito Hagio <k-hagio-ab@nec.com>
Date:   Tue Feb 25 16:04:55 2020 -0500

    [PATCH] Introduce --check-params option

    Currently it's difficult to check whether a makedumpfile command-line
    is valid or not without an actual panic.  This is inefficient and if
    a wrong configuration is not tested, you will miss the vmcore when an
    actual panic occurs.

    In order for kdump facilities like kexec-tools to be able to check
    the specified command-line parameters in advance, introduce the
    --check-params option that only checks them and exits immediately.

(2) move the notes out to a new "Notes" section for readability and
    add a note about need of reconfiguration after kernel update
(3) change journalctl -x option to -b option because -x is unnecessary
    and -b will make it very faster if persistent journal is available
(4) shorten the example messages for readability
(5) add a note to "Limitation" about the earliness of early kdump

6a20bd5447 kdump-lib: switch to the kexec_file_load() syscall on x86_64 by default
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.

Note:
[1] The 'X' indicates that the 1st kernel(unsigned) can not boot when the
    Secure boot is enabled.

Hence, in this patch, if on x86_64, let's use the kexec_file_load() only.
See if anything wrong happened in this case, in Fedora firstly for the
time being.

cee618593c Add a hook to wait for kdump target in initqueue
The dracut initqueue may quit immediately and won't trigger any hook if
there is no "finished" hook still pending (finished hook will be deleted
once it return 0).

This issue start to appear with latest dracut, latest dracut use
network-manager to configure the network,
network-manager module only install "settled" hook, and we didn't
install any other hook. So NFS/SSH dump will fail. iSCSI dump works
because dracut iscsi module will install a "finished" hook to detect if
the iscsi target is up.

So for NFS/SSH we keep initqueue running until the host successfully get
a valid IP address, which means the network is ready.

for naming the vmcore. But kdump-module-setup.sh never installed this
tool. kdump-module-setup.sh worked so far as dracut network module will
help install it.

After dracut changed to use 35network-manager for network setup, "ip"
command won't be installed in second kernel by default. So need to
ensure "ip" is installed when installing kdump dracut module.

d13fd38df4 kdump-error-handler.service: Remove ExecStopPost
Currently "systemctl --fail --no-block default" will be executed on
kdump-error-handler exit due to the config. This may makes systemd try
to isolate to the default target again.

The execute chain will be like:

initrd.target -> kdump.sh (failed) -> kdump-error-handler.service ->
failure_action -> final_action -> ExecStopPost (go to initrd.target again)

Currently, reboot/shutdown/halt is called by either by executing
failure_action or final_action. So the loop will be stopped. However
nont of the reboot/shutdown/halt call is blocking so it might lead to
race issue.

Just drop the ExecStopPost to fix this potential issue.

f13eab60cb mkdumprd: simplify dracut args parsing
Previously dracut_args is stored as an array in the shell code,
so we can just pass this array as argument to dracut.
But when trying to append new dracut argument, we have to manually
handle the quotes and spaces to ensure the appended argument is
splitted into array elements in the right way.

This is complex and hard to read or maintain. Instead, just store the
dracut_args as a plain string, and let xargs help parse it and call
dracut.

Simply passing $dracut_args or "$dracut_args" will either let dracut
consider the whole string as a single argument, or loss all the
quotes. xargs can handle it well and cover more corner cases.

Eg. one corner case before, if we have:
dracut_args --mount "/dev/sda1 /mnt/test xfs rw"

Kdump will fail, because the function add_dracut_arg() will wrongly
change the arguments into: (Notice the extra space.)
dracut_args --mount " /dev/sda1 /mnt/test xfs rw"

Instead of fixing it just use xargs instead. Tested with above config
and multiple other dracut_args values.

5633e83318 Always set vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 3 in kdump kernel
By default kernel have vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 0 and large page
allocation might fail as kernel is very conservative on memory
reclaiming. If the page allocation failure is not handled carefully
it could lead to more serious problems.

This issue can be reproduced by change with following steps:

- Fill up page cache use:
  # dd if=/dev/urandom of=/test bs=1M count=1300

- Now the memory is filled with write cache:
  # free -m
                total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
  Mem:           1790         184         132           2        1473        1348
  Swap:          2119           7        2112

- Insert a module which simply calls "kmalloc(SZ_1M, GFP_KERNEL)" for
  512 times: (Notice: vmalloc don't have such problem)
  # insmod debug_module.ko

- Got following allocation failure:
  insmod: page allocation failure: order:8, mode:0x40cc0(GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_COMP), nodemask=(null),cpuset=/,mems_allowed=0

- Clean up and repeat again with vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 3, OOM is not
  observed.

In kdump kernel there is usually only one online CPU and limited memory,
so we set vm.zone_reclaim_mode = 3 to let kernel reclaim memory more
aggresively to avoid such issue.

0a9aabaadd kdumpctl: make reload fail proof
When large amount of memory, about 1TB, is removed with DLPAR memory
remove operation, kdump reload could fail due to race condition with
device tree property update. In such scenario, the subsequent kdump
reload requests would also fail as reload() only proceeds if current
load status is active. Since the possibility of this race condition
couldn't be wished away due to the nature of the scenario, workaround
it by proceeding to load even if current load status is not active as
long as kdump service is active, which kdump udev rules already check
for.

39352d0cfc Don't execute final_action if failure_action terminates the system
If failure_action is shutdown/reboot/halt, final_action is pointless as
the system will be already stopping. And if final_action is different
from failure_action, it will trigger a systemd race problem and cause
unexpected behavior to occur.

So let the error handler stop and exit after performing failure_action
successfully if failure_action is one of shutdown/reboot/halt.
This way, final_action will not be executed.

5e76e53a70 module-setup.sh: Simplify the network setup code
Merge kdump_setup_netdev into kdump_install_net.

kdump_install_net is a wrapper of calling kdump_setup_netdev, and
it do following three extra things:

  1. Sanitize and resolve the hostname
  2. Resolve the route to the destination
  3. Set the default gateway for once

There is currently only one caller of kdump_setup_netdev, the iscsi
network setup code, and it's doing 1 and 2 by itself. And there should
only be one default gateway in kdump enviroment, so applying 3 here is
fine.

And the comment of kdump_install_net is wrong and obsoleted, update the
comment too.

Just merge kdump_setup_netdev into kdump_install_net and always use
kdump_install_net instead.

18ee888eab mkdumprd: ensure ssh path exists before check size
check_size checks if the specified dump path on the ssh target have
enough space. And if the path doesn't exits, it will fail and exit.

mkdir_save_path_ssh should be called first to check if the path
exists, and create the path if it doesn't exits, so the size check
can always work properly.

6dee286467 Don't mount the dump target unless needed
For fadump, this helps to reduce the risk of boot failure, and
may also help speed up the boot by a bit.

For normal kdump, this will delay the dump target mounting, and no
longer depend on systemd to do the mounting job.

And currently there is a failure that caused by some mount handling
bug with kernel and systemd that is failing the system booting:

[FAILED] Failed to mount /kdumproot/home.
See 'systemctl status kdumproot-home.mount' for details.
[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems.
[  OK  ] Reached target Remote File Systems (Pre).
[  OK  ] Reached target Remote File Systems.
         Starting udev Coldplug all Devices...
         Starting Create Volatile Files and Directories...
         Starting Kdump Emergency...

This patch can bypass it. The fix of root cause is still WIP, but this
patch itself is a nice to have optimization so it's reasonable to do so.

a0db00d575 makedumpfile: Fix inconsistent return value from find_vmemmap()
Backport from the makedumpfile devel branch in upstream.

commit 8425342a52b23d462f10bceeeb1c8a3a43d56bf0
Author: Kazuhito Hagio <k-hagio@ab.jp.nec.com>
Date:   Fri Sep 6 09:50:34 2019 -0400

    [PATCH] Fix inconsistent return value from find_vmemmap()

    When -e option is given, the find_vmemmap() returns FAILED(1) if
    it failed on x86_64, but on architectures other than that, it is
    stub_false() and returns FALSE(0).

              if (info->flag_excludevm) {
                      if (find_vmemmap() == FAILED) {
                              ERRMSG("Can't find vmemmap pages\n");

      #define find_vmemmap()          stub_false()

    As a result, on the architectures other than x86_64, the -e option
    does some unnecessary processing with no effect, and marks the dump
    DUMP_DH_EXCLUDED_VMEMMAP unexpectedly.

    Also, the functions for the -e option return COMPLETED or FAILED,
    which are for command return value, not for function return value.

    So let's fix the issue by following the common style that returns
    TRUE or FALSE, and avoid confusion.

bdd3061883 makedumpfile: Fix exclusion range in find_vmemmap_pages()
Backport from the makedumpfile devel branch in upstream.

commit b461971bfac0f193a0c274c3b657d158e07d4995
Author: Kazuhito Hagio <k-hagio@ab.jp.nec.com>
Date:   Thu Aug 29 14:51:56 2019 -0400

    [PATCH] Fix exclusion range in find_vmemmap_pages()

    In the function, since pfn ranges are literally start and end, not start
    and end+1, if the struct page of endpfn is at the last in a vmemmap page,
    the vmemmap page is dropped by the following code, and not excluded.

        npfns_offset = endpfn - vmapp->rep_pfn_start;
        vmemmap_offset = npfns_offset * size_table.page;
        // round down to page boundary
        vmemmap_offset -= (vmemmap_offset % pagesize);

    We can use (endpfn+1) here to fix.
