Current TODO list, broken into things which are relevant for the
|
|
|
|
|
initramfs itself (/init et al) vs the generator. A lot of things
|
|
|
|
|
are/should be marked with "FIXME" in the code

INITRAMFS TODO
|
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
* Currently, our switch_root command uses nash's switchroot. Getting
|
|
|
|
|
a reasonable switchroot implementation into util-linux-ng is a
|
|
|
|
|
pre-condition for support on other distros. pjones has a basic
|
|
|
|
|
implementation at
|
|
|
|
|
http://pjones.fedorapeople.org/mkstart/usr/lib/mkstart/switchroot.c
|
|
|
|
|
and I've asked kzak about util-linux inclusion
|
|
|
|
|
* The hard-coded list of udev rules that we care about is kind of
|
|
|
|
|
lame. See about getting /lib/udev/initrules.d or similar for storing
|
|
|
|
|
the rules that we care about in the initramfs. These could be
|
|
|
|
|
symlinks/hardlinks to the main rules in some cases or special-cased
|
|
|
|
|
ones
|
|
|
|
|
* LVM activation by udev is a bit of a large hammer right now
|
|
|
|
|
* dm-crypt (luks) depends on plymouth
|
|
|
|
|
* plymouth is hard-coded... this may be reasonable as modesetting goes
|
|
|
|
|
into the upstream kernel as a way to get off of fb-splash stuff, but I
|
|
|
|
|
can see this being a point of contention for other distros
|
|
|
|
|
* plymouth --show-splash should be done as a udev rule so that we
|
|
|
|
|
can switch modes first
|
|
|
|
|
* root= parsing should be done with udev creating /dev/root symlink
|
|
|
|
|
for us appropriately
|
|
|
|
|
* Support thaw (resume from hibernate)
|
|
|
|
|
* Proving some support with a simple network based root would be good
|
|
|
|
|
* Do we just call dhclient, etc or try to get NetworkManager going?
|
|
|
|
|
* Would be nice not to have to kill and restart udev across switchroot
|
|
|
|
|
* mdraid
|
|
|
|
|
* dmraid
|
|
|
|
|
* multipath
|
|
|
|
|
* Should SELinux policy be done in the initramfs or from the real
|
|
|
|
|
rootfs?
|
|
|
|
|
* Keyboard layout/consolefont setup is Fedora/RHEL-specific.

GENERATOR TODO
|
|
|
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
|
* Default module specificatoin could use some work
|
|
|
|
|
* udev rule copying, as mentioned above, is a bit too hard-coded
|
