Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated dracut packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 Extended Update Support.
Description
The dracut packages contain an event-driven initial RAM file system (initramfs) generator infrastructure based on the udev device manager. The virtual file system, initramfs, is loaded together with the kernel at boot time and initializes the system, so it can read and boot from the root partition.
This update fixes the following bug:
- Previously, when the /proc/module file was read during a boot stage to find the modules that needed to be present in the kdump initial RAM disk (initrd), the file occasionally got into an inconsistent state. This situation happened when certain modules were still being loaded to the system and the file was at the same time being read by the dracut utility. As a consequence, some modules important for getting a core dump were missing. This update adds auxiliary logic so that dracut reads the /proc/modules file in its entirety. As a result, the kdump initrd always contains the modules that are needed to perform a core dump. (BZ#1589760)
Users of dracut are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix this bug.
