The lvmetad daemon is not yet running in initramfs so there's no
need to run pvscan (or instantiate any lvm2-pvscan systemd service).
If pvscan was called in this case (either directly or via systemd
instantiated service), it would fail because there's no lvmetad
daemon to update. This could cause confusion, especially in systemd
instantiated service which is run only once!
Due to the 'inst_libdir_file "libnss_files*"' in the udev-rules module
this caues the /usr/lib/libnss_files-2.18.so* to be included. This is a
32-bit library and pulls in a 32-bit version of glibc also even on a
64-bit system.
This is due to the fact that ldconfig -pN will print [/usr]/lib paths
from the cache as well as [/usr]/lib64. As we handle these paths
specifically we should ignore these results from the cache.
Also there was a missing space when appending the ldconfig paths
onto our list meaning the last builtin and first ldconfig path
were unusable.
If new kernels have modules split out, handle the case, where modules
have to modalias and just install them.
Also add the crypto drivers and names to host_modalias.
The global var setting was happening in a pipe and did not have an
effect.
Use <<<$() instead.
< <() cannot be used, because dracut is called in chroot's environments,
where /dev/fd does not point to /proc/self/fd, but bash wants
/dev/fd/<num> for this construct.
This patch adds support for lzop(1) & lz4(1) compression
algorithms to compress iniramfs image file. Both are supported
by the Linux kernel.
Linux kernel exports user's choice of initramfs compression
algorithm as a shell environment variable: INITRD_COMPRESS.
This patch adds support to read this variable and duly compress
the initramfs image file.
Environment variable INITRD_COMPRESS has less precedence than the
command line options --gzip, etc. Ie. command line options could
override the compression algorithm defined by $INITRD_COMPRESS.

[Edited-by: Harald Hoyer: add documentation about lzo and lz4]
parse-resume.sh already contains all the code from resume-genrules.sh.
Also parse-resume.sh is executed before resume-genrules.sh, so there is
no point to keep the latter.
This fixes the following error messages:
dracut-initqueue: ln: failed to create symbolic link '/dev/resume': File exists
dracut-initqueue: rm: cannot remove '/lib/dracut/hooks/initqueue/settled/resume.sh': No such file or directory
dracut-initqueue: rm: cannot remove '/lib/dracut/hooks/initqueue/timeout/resume.sh': No such file or directory
Check for other possible fs types. This fixes swap detection when using
TuxOnIce kernel.
Note that parse-resume.sh generate udev rules with support for
ID_FS_TYPE=suspend, but we do not include it here, because it is
libvolume_id thing and host_fs_types is populated using blkid.
This is similar to the reason for adding the
/run/initramfs/live-baseloop symlink -- access to the original live
image without overlays.
livemedia-creator does not create a osmin.img, so there is no mountable
device for it to use when rsyncing the live image to the target. It
needs a device that points to the original live image without overlays.
Note that lmc won't be creating osmin.img, since really isn't needed any
longer. Its purpose was to provide a minimal image that could be dd'd to
the target. Now that we use rsync this is no longer necessary.
The included patch adds a /dev/mapper/live-base device that Anaconda can
use whether or not there is an osmin present.
default_kernel_images and -i/-k paths are new (SuSE) code paths and
would have resulted in usage errors before.
There we want to build host only images for faster building and
smaller images.
Also force creation (overriding) of initrd images in these code paths.

-d is the SUSE mkinitrd version option to pass the rootfs.
-s is to enable splash which may not be needed, but some callers rely on it,
not to return an error.
Make this wrapper compatible to it.

Before this gave a "usage" error.
Now boot_dir (by default /boot) is scanned for available kernels and sane
initrd default targets get defined and the corresponding initramfs files
are generated.

Dracut is rather verbose. This optional parameter is to limit the output
to the essential: For each generated initrd show the kernel, target and
possibly additional options passed to dracut.
