Hi, All This patchset introduce a new kdump emergency service. It will override the existing emergency.service. When fatal error occurs, this emergency service will be triggered and systemd will isolate to emergency path. This kdump emergency service can will read kdump.conf and act according to the configired "default action" (reboot/poweroff/halt/shell/dump_to_rootfs). Along with this patchset, kdump-capture.service is introduced as a service unit to run kdump.sh. When kdump-capture.service fails, systemd will isolate to kdump emergency service. I copied all the dependencies from dracut-pre-pivot.service to kdump-capture.service so that kdump.sh will be called the correct time window.
