This commit finalizes the implementation of the new stand-alone dump -
Next Gen Dump (NGDump).
NGDump stand-alone dump is a universal stand-alone dump which works for both
SCSI and NVMe disks. But currently can be used only with NVMe disks
and SCSI stand-alone dump remains the default for SCSI disks.
Currently, this stand-alone dump can be used only on IBM z15 or newer
machine generations because it requires larger amount of HSA memory offered
by firmware only on IBM z15 machines. Whereas SCSI stand-alone dump is able
to work with HSA memory of 32M, the new stand-alone dump requires 512M HSA
memory at the moment.
NGDump stand-alone dump installation is initiated by passing a path to
a NVMe disk partition to zipl via the command-line -d, similar to SCSI
stand-alone dump. zipl will then:
- build a dumper initramfs with either dracut (Fedora/RHEL/SLES) or
initramfs-tools (Ubuntu/Debian)
- format the given NVMe partition with ext4 file system
- create a bootmap file on the newly created file system using the built
initramfs and the currently active kernel image
- install a boot loader on the disk the given dump partition belongs to
The operations described above are destructive for the given NVMe dump
partition and the boot record(s) of its disk.
After the installation step, users can configure the dumpconf to IPL
the dumper automatically on panic or trigger a dump manually via HMC
interface.
When activated, the dumper will create a dump ELF file named "dump.elf"
on the given NVMe dump partition by using the makedumpfile tool. The kdump
compressed file format is not supported yet due to zgetdump not being able
to read such a file format. Therefore, the dumper is restricted to write
the dump only in ELF format but only kernel pages which are in use.
This will usually make the dump smaller than the original size of
/proc/vmcore and the whole dump process faster as well.
Example configuration for dumpconf:
ON_PANIC=dump # or dump_reipl
DUMP_TYPE=nvme
FID=0x00000001
NSID=0x00000001
BOOTPROG=0
BR_LBA=0
$ systemctl enable --now dumpconf
To install the dracut support on Fedora/RHEL/SUSE:
$ make -C zipl/dracut HAVE_DRACUT=1 install
To install the initramfs-tools support on Ubuntu/Debian:
$ make -C zipl/initramfs-tools HAVE_INITRAMFS=1 install

The purpose of the new zipl helper script is to build a dumper initramfs
for NGDump stand-alone dump. zipl executes the helper script when
preparing a NVMe dump partition for stand-alone dump.
The zipl helper script expects a single parameter - a path to the dump
partition to store a dump on. The helper script terminates with 0 on
success and a positive value otherwise.
The zipl helper script performs the following steps:
- It builds an initramfs image suitable for dumping. To perform this step,
the script employs the dracut tool on Fedora/RHEL/SLES and
the initramfs-tools on Ubuntu/Debian.
- It outputs the path to the newly built initramfs image and the currently
active kernel bzImage on the standard output.
- It prints the kernel command-line to be used by the dumper on
the standard output.
On success, zipl expects the helper script to return at least three lines
containing:
- initrd=<path to an initramfs image>
- kernel=<path to a kernel bzImage>
- cmdline=<kernel command-line parameters>

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.

The target field is required for IPL sections, but the ones populated from
BLS snippets did not have this field. This was only working when using BLS
snippets because IPL sections inherit the target field with "defaultauto".
But that's not the case when using a menu, for example the following zipl
configuration will fail if it's used along with BLS defined IPL sections:
fail when running the zipl tool:
[defaultboot]
defaultmenu = menu1
:menu1
target = /boot
1 = linux
2 = test
default = 1
prompt = 1
timeout = 0
Because "linux" and "test" will be defined using BLS snippets and these
don't have an option to define target fields. Let's make these to always
inherit a target field, either from the [defaultboot] section or a menu
section if there's a defaultmenu defined.
