Useful for debugging (what happened during early boot).
Also useful for distro installers, which can import the early config into
their own environment early after starting:
chzdev --import /run/zdev.initrd.config --persistent --yes \
--no-root-update --force --verbose
After that, distro installers can modify/add the device config based
on interactive or unattended installation choices using
chzdev --enable --active --persistent ...
Finally, distro installers can likewise transfer the entire device config
to the installed system mounted under $SYSROOT:
chzdev --export /tmp/zdev.config --all --type --persistent --verbose

Add parsing of dracut cmdline option "rd.zfcp=..." at initrd runtime.
It delegates configuration to chzdev.
Implement `dracut --print-cmdline` and `dracut --hostonly-cmdline` for
initrd build time. Emit an rd.zfcp option for each zfcp-attached SCSI disk
in dracut's device dependency graph (to mount the root-fs, or to access the
kdump target).
This allows a distribution independent device configuration.
Configuration is consistent by using chzdev as backend.
It also prevents duplicate activations of the same device.
Along with the existing functionality of zdev/dracut, it makes the
following dracut modules superfluous:

[rd.zfcp.conf is no longer needed and thus ignored here; the preceding
("zdev/dracut: fix marking hostonly files so delete option works")
makes rd.hostonly=0 work as a generic replacement]

Additional debugging output can be generated with e.g. dracut option
"--stdlog 5" (or short -L5). It shows the chzdev export result, the output
of chzdev imports, and an overview of the resulting persistent config
within the initrd.
On systems, which default to using dracut option "--quiet", you might need
an additional "--verbose" to counter "--quiet" so -L5 has effect.
Typically combined with "--debug" to get a shell trace from building an
initrd (Note: --debug does not increase the log levels).

Otherwise, dracut skips modules that are "not hostonly", i.e. not used /
loaded on the system when running dracut to build an initrd.
Without the fix, zdev device auto configuration only works for device
types for which a device driver happened to be loaded when building an
initrd. Likewise for specifying rd.* boot options.
Hostonly mode is often the default in Linux distributions.
Make zdev device auto configuration work nonetheless without users
having to know about and tweak dracut modes for initrd generation.
On the typical sloppy hostonly mode, the code disables hostonly for
installing kernel modules. This covers building regular initrds, where zdev
device auto configuration should even work for device types, for which
device drivers were not loaded when an initrd was generated. This can
happen when new devices of new types are configured for a DPM logical
partition. Also, users could want to start using dracut cmdline options
rd.{dasd,zfcp,znet} for a device type that was not used when the initrd was
built.
The special strict hostonly mode is used by some kdump implementations. In
that case, hostonly remains in effect intentionally because only support
for the really required devices as determined by dracut module 95zdev-kdump
should be included in a kdump initrd due to the memory-constrained kdump
environment. Cf. commit 73c46a3056 ("zdev/dracut: fix kdump by only
activating required devices"), which also provides more references on
strict hostonly mode. Even for non-kdump cases, let strict hostonly mode be
effective here in 95zdev in case some future use case appears for this
special mode beyond kdump.

With the introduction of zdev for device configuration in v1.33.0,
it used a hardcoded "/" to refer to the root-fs.
Dracut has its own mechanism to find the root file system and to walk its
device dependencies.
Mkdumprd also has its own mechanism to interpret the kdump target
and invokes dracut so that dracut only considers arguments from mkdumprd
without any root-fs dracut would default to [--no-hostonly-default-device].
Use the dracut mechanism to walk device dependencies and individually
have chzdev treat each leaf-node in the dependency tree.
See also https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut commit
83e0dc7a3dca ("Add for_each_host_dev_and_slaves for device only checking").
This enables the use of dracut options such as --add-device or
--mount used in turn by mkdumprd.

Export and import the configurations with zdev:early on the
site-specific configurations as well. Filter the site-specific
configurations by attribute "zdev:early" and import the output
to the corresponding sites.
Note that --site parameter does not work with the device type.

PCI and crypto devices defined using the IBM Z Dynamic Partition Manager
(DPM) will start in an offline/unconfigured state that requires manual
intervention before the associated Linux function can be used. This
results for example in PCI networking interfaces being unavailable in a
distribution installer system.
Fix this by providing a udev rule and initial RAM-disk logic that
automatically enables PCI and crypto devices either during boot, or when
they are defined at run-time. This processing can be suppressed by
specifying the "rd.zdev=no-auto" parameter on the kernel command line.
Auto-configuration is limited to Linux running in DPM LPARs because
PCI-functions and crypto devices defined by DPM are always intended for
use by a single LPAR only.
For Linux running in classic-mode LPARs or virtual machines, leaving PCI
and crypto devices in an offline state may be useful to allow defining a
device as available to multiple systems, where only the system that
intends to make use of the device should enable it.

Enable user to specify that a device should be configured early, that is
during the initial RAM-disk boot phase. This may be necessary, e.g. to
override auto-configuration for a device which is also applied during
that boot phase. It may also be used to manually specify devices that
are required to access the root file system, such as networking devices.
Users can mark devices as requiring early configuration by specifying
a value of 1 for the newly added internal attribute zdev:early:
# chzdev dasd-eckd 0.0.1234 -p zdev:early=1
This can be changed back by removing the attribute setting, or by
setting the attribute value to 0:
# chzdev dasd-eckd 0.0.1234 -p -r zdev:early
or
# chzdev dasd-eckd 0.0.1234 -p zdev:early=0

Add a dracut hook that applies firmware-provided I/O configuration data
as auto-configuration during boot. This way, all I/O devices configured
by DPM are automatically brought online without further user
interaction.
This mechanism is active by default. It can be deactivated by specifying
the following parameter on the kernel command line:

Running dracut when the root device is not known to zdev (for example
because it is located on a virtio block device) will cause the zdev
dracut module to incorrectly return an error in the installkernel()
function. As a result dracut aborts with an error.
Fix this by ensuring that the non-zero exit code resulting from lszdev
not being able to determine the root device is not passed on to the
calling function. Also remove unnecessary error output in this case
by leaving the install() function early when the root device is not
known to zdev.

During processing, the zdev-provided dracut module creates a temporary
file using the mktemp tool. Due to a missing path specification
in the filename template, mktemp tries to create the temporary file
in the current working directory which fails if that directory is not
writable:
# cd /sys
# dracut -Nf
mktemp: failed to create file via template 'dracut-zdev.XXXX': No such
file or directory
chzdev: Could not write to file : No such file or directory
sed: can't read : No such file or directory
chzdev: Could not open file : No such file or directory
Fix this by specifying option --tmpdir when calling mktemp.
