RFE: Abstract the commandline options for the command used for kdump_core_collector #19

Description

@tyll

Currently the kdump_core_collector accepts values such as makedumpfile -l --message-level 2 -d 30 that we demo in presentations. Since the system roles are also about abstractions, it would make sense to expose the command-line options for makedumpfile as individual variables, especially the bitmap specified after -d could be exposed as the following booleans:

  • kdump_dump_zero_pages
  • kdump_dump_non_private_cache
  • kdump_dump_private_cache
  • kdump_dump_user_data
  • kdump_dump_free_pages

And a sensible default could be used.
