kexec-tools could update the default crashkernel value.
When auto_reset_crashkernel=yes, reset kernel to new crashkernel
value in the following two cases,
- crashkernel=auto is found in the kernel cmdline
- the kernel crashkernel was previously set by kexec-tools i.e.
the kernel is using old default crashkernel value
To tell if the user is using a custom value for the kernel crashkernel
or not, we assume the user would never use the default crashkernel value
as custom value. When kexec-tools gets updated,
1. save the default crashkernel value of the older package to
/tmp/crashkernel (for POWER system, /tmp/crashkernel_fadump is saved
as well).
2. If auto_reset_crashkernel=yes, iterate all installed kernels.
For each kernel, compare its crashkernel value with the old
default crashkernel and reset it if yes
The implementation makes use of two RPM scriptlets [2],
- %pre is run before a package is installed so we can use it to save
old default crashkernel value
- %post is run after a package installed so we can use it to try to reset
kernel crashkernel
There are several problems when running kdumpctl in the RPM scripts
for CoreOS/Atomic/Silverblue, for example, the lock can't be acquired by
kdumpctl, "rpm-ostree kargs" can't be run and etc.. So don't enable this
feature for CoreOS/Atomic/Silverblue.
Note latest shellcheck (0.8.0) gives false positives about the
associative array as of this commit. And Fedora's shellcheck is 0.7.2
and can't even correctly parse the shell code because of the associative
array.
