Description Akira Imamura 2006-10-11 22:04:43 UTC 
Description of problem:
mkdumprd won't abort even if it fails to unmount of a temporary
directory for testing of NFS path.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kexec-tools-1.101-92.el5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure "net" in /etc/kdump.conf so that it fails to mount the specified
nfs path.
2. Run "service kdump restart"
3.
  
Actual results:
kdump starts up.

Expected results:
kdump fails to start up with warning.


Additional info:
The cause of this problem is that mkdumprd doesn't check a return value of
umount. I attached a patch to fix this problem.
