Replace struct disk_info with new 2 types.
Old type:
struct disk_info {
A; /* logical device info */
B; /* basedisk info */
};
New types:
struct disk_info {
B; /* basedisk info */
};
and
struct device_info {
A; /* logical device info */
struct disk_info C [MAX_TARGETS]; /* array of base disks */
};
Here A (logical device info) is the following:
dev_t device; /* logical device for bootmap creation */
char *name; /* name of logical device as reetrieved from
"/proc/partitions" */
char *drv_name; /* name of the driver managing the logical
device as retrieved from "/proc/devices",
or evaluated */
int fs_block_size;
Refactor the code respectively, to use only the first element of
the array C, so that this patch represents an equivalent transform.

Use the directory specified by the shell environment variable TMPDIR
for temporary objects creation and ngdump job simulation. If TMPDIR is
not set, then use "/tmp" for the mentioned purposes;
While running ngdump job in 'dry-run' mode:
. Don't format/mount the target dump device. Instead, create the
bootmap file and the meta-file at the temporary mount point without
mounting anything to it. Thus, the mentioned files to be acrually
created in the "proxy" file system owning the temporary mount point;
. Retrieve base disk info from the read-only dump device and
complete that info with the block size of the proxy file system;
Separate the steps on retrieving/setting file system block size
into a dedicated procedure;

Introduce a write simulation operation, which doesn't write actual
data and just updates the current position in the file.
This allows to emulate block lists for files located on raw devices
(not formatted with a file system). This is used by the next patches
in the series to implement '--dry-run' zipl option for dumps of all
types (not only ngdumps).
Introduce a 'misc file descriptor', which allows to mark individual
files as "opened in a simulation mode".
Whenever bulding a bootmap file, use either real write, or write
simulation depending on the mode set in the 'misc file descriptor'.

When detecting disk type, the function disk_get_info() is called.
It can fail for various reasons (e.g. when the logial target is not
eligible for boot record installation).
Once disk_get_info() fails, don't proceed with type detection.
Return error instead. When applicable, mark the dump job with
"is_ngdump" flag to avoid extra type detection calls.

. Modify disk_get_info() to process multiple sets of target parameters
provided by the helper script and store it in the array of "targets"
of the structure job_target_data;
. Besides the logical device, maintain an array of physical base disks
in the disk_info structure;
. Use the logical target device only to create bootmap (it is
automatically mirrored by the respective linux driver (dm, or md)
managing the mirrored target). In contrast, install bootstrap blocks
to each physical base disk individually, bypassing that driver;
. Report in verbose mode on which base disks the bootstrap
installation was performed;
. Use the following logic of setting @info->device (which is printed
as "Device...:" in verbose mode):
. source_auto - the target base disk is set;
. source_script - the target (logical) device is set;
. source_user - the device specified by user (via --targetbase
option), or config file is set.

This patch fixes a bug in disk_get_info()
Steps to reproduce: Prepare a SCSI disk for IPL, specifying an image
("-i IMAGE_NAME") located on DASD and a target directory ("-t /mnt")
located on SCSI (dm). Don't specify "-a" option.
Actual result: Installation succeeded (resulting in unbootable setup!)
Expected result: "Error: Could not add image file 'IMAGE_NAME':
File is not on target device".
The problem is in incorrect evaluation of device number (dev_t) of
the device, where the image file is located, by the function
add_component_file_range(). To evaluate it, disk_get_info() is called
with the structure job_target_data (passed as the second argument)
previously completed by disk_get_info() called earlier to evaluate
parameters of the specified target device (SCSI dm) by the function
prepare_build_program_table_file(). Since the targetbase is already
set in the passed job_target_data (by the first call), in the second
call the source type is evaluated as "source_user", so the number of
the device where the image is located is calculated by the base SCSI
disk, which is incorrect.
Fixup: Rework disk_get_info(): introduce a dedicated function to
evaluate source type not depending on the job_target_data content.
Implement the core procedure as a switch by the evaluated source
type.

Make zipl tool prepare ECKD DASD for booting by different IPL
programs (with the same boot record installed).
Besides standard CCW-type IPL, user gets an ability to trigger
(with the same boot record installed!) List-Directed IPL. This
allows to use the feature of secure boot from ECKD DASD (which
is not available for CCW-type IPL).
When using the old boot interfaces, the usual CCW-type IPL is
triggered for DASD. Also for compatibility reasons zipl(8) tool
is modified to create and install one, or two "similar" program
tables per boot partition, depending on job and disk type. The
"similar" program tables differ only in block pointers format.
The old IPL programs (CCW-type IPL) use program table based on the
old format.
All program tables are packed to the same bootmap file. Their
order and logical offsets in the file are not significant (not
used by anyone).
The picture below shows which program table is used for IPL of
specified type from disk of specified type. Here "0" and "1" are
identifiers of program tables based on the old and new block
pointers format respectively. E.g. program table "0" is used for
CCW-type IPL from ECKD DASD. LD-IPL from DASD FBA is unsupported
(respectively, only one program table "0" is used), etc.
CCW-IPL LD-IPL
SCSI X 0
DASD FBA 0 X
ECKD DASD LDL 0 X
ECKD DASD CDL 0 1

Until now, NVMe disks were handled by zipl as SCSI disks. To support
NVMe stand-alone dump, it became necessary to further differentiate between
both types of disks.
There are two cases that must be handled:
1. A non-device-mapper device is a NVMe disk if it is assigned to the blkext
device driver.
2. A device-mapper disk is a NVMe disk if the ioctl NVME_IOCTL_ID succeeds.
This case is necessary to properly recognize NVMe disks which are
DM devices and, therefore, not directly handled by the blkext device
driver.
