How to say...
There's many different configs for network like:
1. ip={dhcp|on|any|dhcp6|auto6|ibft}
2. ip=<interface>:{dhcp|on|any|dhcp6|auto6}
3. ip=<client-IP>:[<server-id>
]:<gateway-IP>:<netmask>:<client_hostname>:<interface>:{none|off}
4. ifname=
5. bootdev=
6. root=nfs:[snip]
They are all possibly be used, IHMO they are not good options for this
patch using. For example there's no NIC specified in 1 and 3, we will
still have to bring up the default
Kdump module can make sure that at least one NIC will be specified, if
there is ip=.
Also this is a general feature, maybe it will be used by users other
than kdump. For kdump I think we can use proper ip= plus rd.neednet=1
Why? If we can re-use ip=, it will imply rd.neednet=1, so again,
rd.neednet is not needed.
Thanks.
