This test succeeds, because the mirror parts are found without
assembling the mirror itsself, which is what we want
client_run rd_NO_DM rd_NO_MDIMSM rd_NO_MDADMCONF || return 1
Copy /etc/mdadm.conf to initramfs (even for non-hostonly) if
mdadmconf="yes" is set in dracut.conf or --mdadmconf is specified on the
dracut command line.
This was done, because there seems _no_ sane way to autoassemble md raid
arrays.
also moved rd_NO_MD to an udev ENV
* SYNTAX
bridge=<bridgename>:<ethname>
If bridge without parameters, assume bridge=br0:eth0
* When <ethname> would be configured by network scripts, instead create a bridge named <bridgename> then add <ethname> to that bridge.
* Then $netif becomes <bridgename> instead of <ethname> and all existing scripts process netroot mount via this new $netif instead of <ethname>.
* Include a few test cases in NFS and NBD
init now has the following points to inject scripts:
/cmdline/*.sh
scripts for command line parsing
/pre-udev/*.sh
scripts to run before udev is started
/pre-trigger/*.sh
scripts to run before the main udev trigger is pulled
/initqueue/*.sh
runs in parallel to the udev trigger
Udev events can add scripts here with /sbin/initqueue.
If /sbin/initqueue is called with the "--onetime" option, the script
will be removed after it was run.
If /initqueue/work is created and udev >= 143 then this loop can
process the jobs in parallel to the udevtrigger.
If the udev queue is empty and no root device is found or no root
filesystem was mounted, the user will be dropped to a shell after
a timeout.
Scripts can remove themselves from the initqueue by "rm $job".
/pre-mount/*.sh
scripts to run before the root filesystem is mounted
NFS is an exception, because it has no device node to be created
and mounts in the udev events
/mount/*.sh
scripts to mount the root filesystem
NFS is an exception, because it has no device node to be created
and mounts in the udev events
If the udev queue is empty and no root device is found or no root
filesystem was mounted, the user will be dropped to a shell after
a timeout.
/pre-pivot/*.sh
scripts to run before the real init is executed and the initramfs
disappears
All processes started before should be killed here.
The behaviour of the dmraid module demonstrates how to use the new
mechanism. If it detects a device which is part of a raidmember from a
udev rule, it installs a job to scan for dmraid devices, if the udev
queue is empty. After a scan, it removes itsself from the queue.
Talked with Debian nbdroot author and he agreed we shouldn't support their obsolete syntax in dracut.
Their root=/dev/nbd[0-9] is no longer needed. Also their syntax was very standardized requiring
a separate boot= parameter.
- Remove root=nfs nfsroot=...
- Remove root=nfs4 nfsroot=...
- Remove root=/dev/nfs4 nfsroot=...
- Legacy nfsroot= without root=/dev/nfs should be unsupported according to the nfsroot.txt.

47 This is necessary to enable the pseudo-NFS-device. Note that it's not a
48 real device but just a synonym to tell the kernel to use NFS instead of
49 a real device.
As with other netroot boot arguments ip= lines should be parsed and
checked. Having this has the advantage that other cmdline scripts
can tell the ip= parser if dhcp or ip=:srv:... is needed, like
parse-root.sh (renamed dhcp-fallback) or parse-nfsroot do.
The nfs test-suite has one check which uses static ip lines, but
the autoconf param is wrong. Fixed this as well.
This introduces detailed cmdline parsing, warning or aborting if the
cmdline does not contain arguments according to the spec.
Makeing sure the parsers don't just call getarg for netroot et al,
allows their reuse inside netroot to analyse dhcp root-path as well.
Hence we can get rid of the current netroot hooks. The hook itself stays
in order to add further modules which should run before netroot handlers
are called.
This has one drawback: nfsroot needs some more logic to handle nfs
specific data inside dhcp root-path.
The parsers have been writting according to current discussions about
cmdline arguments. This lead to the "discovery" that some test-cases
violate the spec. These tests have not been removed, but change to
"must fail".
Debian based distros use dhcpd3 instead of just dhcpd. Accordingly
paths to lease files etc are different as well. This patch ensures
that the test-suite can run with either dhcpd or dhcpd3.
