It sounds good, just wonder if it can be improved by something like instmods =fs/nfs for all the nfs modules in the if section. Not tested, just a guess..
This is cool, it works. I'll try to make a dracut patch.
Glad to see it work :)
BTW: I remembered we don't need to open a dracut bug upstream, but we still need a RHEL7 dracut bug, am I correct?
Yes, we need one..
hostonly='' instmods $i done
Or, if it is not acceptable on dracut's side, we can add "--add-drivers" for "nfs sunrpc ipv6 nfsv2 nfsv3 nfsv4 nfs_acl nfs_layout_nfsv41_files" in kdump code in this patch like that in the early versions, any comment?
It looks very odd actually :(
Yes, that's why I removed it in the following versions.
