For the shell scripts, new environment variables were introduced.
dracutsysrootdir is the root directory, file existence checks use it.
DRACUT_LDCONFIG can override ldconfig with a different one that works
on the sysroot with foreign binaries.
DRACUT_LDD can override ldd with a different one that works
with foreign binaries.
DRACUT_TESTBIN can override /bin/sh. A cross-compiled sysroot
may use symlinks that are valid only when running on the target
so a real file must be provided that exist in the sysroot.
DRACUT_INSTALL now supports debugging dracut-install in itself
when run by dracut but without debugging the dracut scripts.
E.g. DRACUT_INSTALL="valgrind dracut-install or
DRACUT_INSTALL="dracut-install --debug".
DRACUT_COMPRESS_BZIP2, DRACUT_COMPRESS_LBZIP2, DRACUT_COMPRESS_LZMA,
DRACUT_COMPRESS_XZ, DRACUT_COMPRESS_GZIP, DRACUT_COMPRESS_PIGZ,
DRACUT_COMPRESS_LZOP, DRACUT_COMPRESS_ZSTD, DRACUT_COMPRESS_LZ4,
DRACUT_COMPRESS_CAT: All of the compression utilities may be
overridden, to support the native binaries in non-standard places.
DRACUT_ARCH overrides "uname -m".
SYSTEMD_VERSION overrides "systemd --version".
The dracut-install utility was overhauled to support sysroot via
a new option -r and fixes for clang-analyze. It supports
cross-compiler-ldd from
https://gist.github.com/jerome-pouiller/c403786c1394f53f44a3b61214489e6f
DRACUT_INSTALL_PATH was introduced so dracut-install can work with
a different PATH. In a cross-compiled environment (e.g. Yocto), PATH
points to natively built binaries that are not in the host's /bin,
/usr/bin, etc. dracut-install still needs plain /bin and /usr/bin
that are relative to the cross-compiled sysroot.
The hashmap pool allocate_tile/deallocate_tile code was removed
because clang-analyze showed errors in it. hashmap_copy was removed
because it wasn't used and clang-analyze showed errors in it.
DRACUT_INSTALL_LOG_TARGET and DRACUT_INSTALL_LOG_LEVEL were
introduced so dracut-install can use different settings from
DRACUT_LOG_TARGET and DRACUT_LOG_LEVEL.

Before modifying 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules, we should check for the
existance first. Otherwise this results in error messages on
distributions (debian), which do not ship these rules.
--hostonly-cmdline:
Store kernel command line arguments needed in the initramfs
--no-hostonly-cmdline:
Do not store kernel command line arguments needed in the initramfs
Add new functions require_binaries() and require_any_binary() to be used
in the check() section of module-setup.sh.
These functions print a warning line telling the user, which binary is
missing for the specific dracut module.
This unifies the way of checking for binaries and makes the life of an
initramfs creator easier, if he wants to find out why a specific dracut
module is not included in the initramfs.
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!
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.
The 69-dm-lvm-metad.rules set some udev env. variables that makes it
possible to detect the right time to activate LVM on MD. The MD is very
similar to DM during activation - it's usable only after proper device
activation - the CHANGE event. We need to make a difference between a
CHANGE event that comes from this activation and CHANGE event that is
the outcome of the WATCH udev rule (otherwise we'd end up with LVM
activation done on each CHANGE event - which is wrong).
So we need the udev databse to be persistent during pivot to root fs
even for MD devices.
This prints the kernel command line parameters for the current disk
layout.

For lvm, multipath, iscsi modules they do not care about the filesystem,
Also there could be devcie in host_devs but it does not get formated.
For these kind of modules, use for_each_host_dev_and_slaves will be better than use
for_each_host_dev_fs, here add a new function to iterate the host_devs and
their slave devices.
In original for_each_host_dev_fs, it will call check_block_and_slaves which
will return once helper function return 0, but this is not enough for kdump
iscsi setup. For kdump iscsi case, it need setup each slave devices so that
the iscsi target can be properly setuped in initramfs.
Thus, this patch also add new functions check_block_and_slaves_all and
for_each_host_dev_and_slaves_all.

Currently dracut uses lvm.conf as found in the system and modifies only
global/locking_type setting. As there's a new feature introduced - the lvmetad
daemon, dracut should disable its use as well by setting "global/use_lvmetad=0"
(patch attached).
Otherwise, there's a warning message issued:
dracut: WARNING: Failed to connect to lvmetad: No such file or directory.
Falling back to internal scanning.

Another solution could be searching in directories found at
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf or adding a new parameter. Here is a patch
which adds a new --libdirs parameter, and also a new inst_libdir_file
function which will try to expand metacharacters on each lib
directory:
inst_libdir_file "libdevmapper-event-lvm*.so"
In kernel_only mode, we don't want to write /etc/cmdline.d
Correctly return the check functions, so we have a valid return of
for_each_host_dev_fs().
mdraid and dmraid functions had wrong checkings for the filesystem
type.
Due to the way the main loop runs to detect partions, the same one
might be included twice (albeit via different symlinks.
This code simply prevents the same combo being activated twice.
A better fix might simply be to not include duplicate (after
resolving symlinks) entries in the host_fs_types variable.
Like -H, we need to poll every module to check if it is needed
to mount a specific device in '--mount'.

The dm module, which lvm and dmraid depend on, installed dmraid
shared libs. The lvm module installed udev rules, which were
already installed by the dm module.
Cleaned up those issues.
