Guilherme G. Piccoli (gpiccoli) wrote : Make the reset_devices parameter default for kdump kernels

Kernel has the "reset_devices" parameter that drivers can opt-in, and perform special activity in case this parameter is parsed from command-line. For example, in kdump kernels it hints the drivers that they (maybe) are booting from a non-healthy condition and needs to issue some reset to the adapter. Users currently (kernel v4.19) are: hpsa, ipr, megaraid_sas, mpt3sas, smartpqi, xenbus.

This should be enabled by default in the kdump config file to be added in the kdump kernel command-line for all versions.
