Title: Add systemd's kdump service command-line regardless if user provides or not KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND Status in makedumpfile package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in makedumpfile source package in Xenial: Confirmed Status in makedumpfile source package in Bionic: Confirmed Status in makedumpfile source package in Cosmic: Confirmed Status in makedumpfile source package in Disco: Confirmed Bug description: Since Xenial release, Ubuntu relies on systemd as its init system - there's a kdump service to prevent some other services to unnecessarily start in kdump environment. Problem: if we add something to KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND, the entry for kdump service, "systemd.unit=kdump-tools.service" is removed from the command-line. The user manually needs to add that, and this seems highly prone to error. We propose here to decouple the "systemd.unit=kdump-tools.service" parameter from KDUMP_CMDLINE_APPEND, so if user wants really to remove this option, they should used KDUMP_CMDLINE instead.
