Like -H, we need to poll every module to check if it is needed
to mount a specific device in '--mount'.

Don't force --mount only working in hostonly mode, let users decide.
With this patch, people can still combine -H --mount '...' if they
want to use it in hostonly mode.

When the initqueue cannot be processed, it might be about an invalid
root device (in which case a separate message produced via
wait_for_dev() should be displayed anyway), but it could also
be for any other reason (e.g. /dev/resume not existing).
Therefore, it is best to use a more generic error message.
Also a minor tab->space conversion in the near vacinity of
the real change.
This commit allows the waiting for a device to be cancelled.
When the resume partition does not exist, it becomes quite hard
to work out what to do (you have to either create the
/dev/resume symlink manually, or remove the 'finished' job
that is waiting for it). Additionally dracut incorrectly
displays a message about not being able to find the root
device, which is bogus and misleading.
This commit should just bail on the whole resume thing
if the device cannot be found and proceed with a normal boot.
This should fix initial initrd generation during install.
If the modules are not desired to be used, the nokmsboot kernel
command line should disable them.
--add-fstab [FILE] Add file to the initramfs fstab
--mount "[DEV] [MP] [FSTYPE] [FSOPTS]"
Mount device [DEV] on mountpoint [MP] with filesystem
[FSTYPE] and options [FSOPTS] in the initramfs
inst_mount_hook <mountpoint> <prio> <name> <script>
Install a mount hook with priority <prio>,
which executes <script> as soon as <mountpoint> is mounted.
add_mount_point <dev> <mountpoint> <filesystem> <fsopts>
Mount <dev> on <mountpoint> with <filesystem> and <fsopts>
and call any mount hooks, as soon, as it is mounted
Since the initramfs generation is done in %postrans of the kernel rpm,
we can drop all hard requirements.
Also make some requirements a conflict to express the version
dependency.
Determine devices and filesystems to be included in the host-only
initramfs image.
To get a minimal initramfs, which can mount
/
/etc
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/sbin
/usr/lib
/usr/lib64
/boot
we look in fstab for the corresponding devices and determine their and
their slaves' filesystem type and put all that in $host_fs_types
and $host_devs.
Unlike "ifconfig", the "ip" command does not set a broadcast address
unless explicitly requested.
add "brd +" to make "ip" calculate the broadcast address on the fly
