While the documentation states that ifname MAC addresses must be
lower case, we silently accept upper case ones and fail later on
when udev doesn't rename the device.
Instead of adding sanity checking on the MAC address just convert
it to lower case and remove the requirement completely.
fstab-sys now also handles device passed by dracut argument "--mount"
The "--mount" mount point is possible not exist in $NEWROOT. Thus mount it
in initramfs if mount point is not exist in real rootfs
It is useful to know that loop device that the live image's / is mounted
from. Make a /run/initramfs/live-baseloop symlink that points to it.
Edited-By: harald@redhat.com: changed /dev/live-baseloop
to /run/initramfs/live-baseloop
Like -H, we need to poll every module to check if it is needed
to mount a specific device in '--mount'.

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
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
To start bnx2fc, we need to run fipvlan only and not dcbtool. DCBX is run
automatically in the hardware, but VLAN discovery needs to be started by
fipvlan.

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.
The kernel's primary console device is determined by the last "console="
argument on the kernel command line. This setting should be respected by
dracut-generated initial RAM disks.
Steps to Reproduce:
(Easiest using a KVM VM, virt-manager and "virsh console")
1. Boot with a kernel command line ending in
console=tty0 console=ttyS0,115200
2. Observe both tty0 and ttyS0.
The output of init scripts is sent to ttyS0, as the final "console="
argument determines the primary console device as per
Documentation/serial-console.txt in the kernel sources.
