Yes, they are merged with mainline linux kernel (www.kernel.org) for i386, x86_64 and ppc64 architectures. I am not aware of any API to read dumps, but as kdump is ELF core format, one can use gdb or latest crash tool (http://people.redhat.com/~anderson/crash-4.0-2.21.tar.gz) to analyse kdump. cc-ed to fastboot mailing list.
