Add a systemd generator for root=nbd:.. so that systemd has a correct
sysroot.mount unit.
Use export names instead of port numbers, because port number based
exports are deprecated and were removed.
Add descriptions for the rd.live.overlay.readonly,
rd.live.overlay.size, rd.live.overlay.reset,
rd.live.squashimg, and rd.live.overlay=none options.
Mention the Invalid mark on exhausted overlays.
Clarify the rd.writable.fsimg option.
Repunctuate the rd.live.overlay.thin option description.
rd.net.dhcp.retry=<cnt>
If this option is set, dracut will try to connect via dhcp
<cnt> times before failing. Default is 1.
rd.net.timeout.dhcp=<arg>
If this option is set, dhclient is called with "-timeout <arg>".
rd.net.timeout.iflink=<seconds>
Wait <seconds> until link shows up. Default is 60 seconds.
rd.net.timeout.ifup=<seconds>
Wait <seconds> until link has state "UP". Default is 20 seconds.
rd.net.timeout.route=<seconds>
Wait <seconds> until route shows up. Default is 20 seconds.
rd.net.timeout.ipv6dad=<seconds>
Wait <seconds> until IPv6 DAD is finished. Default is 50 seconds.
rd.net.timeout.ipv6auto=<seconds>
Wait <seconds> until IPv6 automatic addresses are assigned.
Default is 40 seconds.
rd.net.timeout.carrier=<seconds>
Wait <seconds> until carrier is recognized. Default is 5 seconds.
(cherry picked from commit d8ad687e1a)
Previously rd.live.fsimg only supported filesystems residing in
(compressed) archives.
Now rd.live.fsimg can also be used when a squashfs image is used.
This is achieved by extracting the rootfs image from the squashfs and
then continue with the default routines for rd.live.fsimg.
In addition some code duplication got removed and some documentation
got added.

This option changes the underlying mechanism for the overlay in the
dmsquash module.
Instead of a plain dm snapshot a dm thin snapshot is used. The advantage
of the thin snapshot is, that the TRIM command is recognized, which
means that at runtime, only the occupied blocks will be claimed from
memory, and freed blocks will really be freed in ram.

When generating units for devices the administrator might
want to use a different timeout than the default.
So implement a new parameter 'rd.timeout' for this.

This patch adds bittorrent support to 45url-lib for those that might want
to retrieve the same live image for multiple systems at once without
saturating the network.
This patch requires ctorrent to be installed into initramfs.
Torrent kernel command line format:
root=live:torrent://example.com/liveboot.img.torrent
Start a tracker:
bttrack --bind <tracker_ip> --port 6969 --dfile dstate --reannounce_interval 60
Create the torrent:
ctorrent -t live_image -u http://<tracker_ip>:6969/announce -s live_image.torrent
Seed the initial torrent:
ctorrent live_image.torrent
Boot the live image.
A user can provide a filesystem image (rootfs.img) inside a compressed
tarball and that filesystem image will be mounted read/write. This provides
some benefits over a device mapper snapshot overlay, especially when the
live system becomes full. The boot command line simple needs
"rd.writable.fsimg" added to utilize this feature.
Additional documentation for this option as well as other live boot
options is included.

rd.iscsi.ibft[=1] should be used instead.
Thing is, 'ip=ibft' is not really an ip setting, but rather a marker
that iBFT should be evaluated.
Also removed the trigger of the warning:
"Warning: Please supply bootdev argument for multiple ip= lines"
Currently when action_on_fail is enabled, the emergency_shell won't be called.
In kdump even though user specify the default action as emergency_shell,
dracut skip it. Now change the implementation of action_on_fail to depend
on a file which is created by kdump when making kdump initrd, then remove it
at the beginning of kdump. This can solve the explicit emergency_shell problem.
And action_on_fail won't need paramenters, remove the relevant description in
dracut man page.

Currently the default action is emergency_shell when failure happened
during system boot. In kdump, this default may not be expected. E.g,
if dump target is not rootfs, it does not matter if mount root failed.
Adding an action which allow dracut always go ahead though failure
happens is needed by kdump.
So here add a function action_on_fail() and cmdline parameter
action_on_fail=<shell | continue>. Use action_to_fail() to replace
emergency_shell which was called after failure. By $(getarg action_on_fail=),
decide to drop into shell, or to leave away the failure and go ahead.
v3->v4:
add handling of selinux policy loaded failure, and change code format to
be consitent

V2: merge patch 2/2
fix active-backup mode by adding slaves one by one
sync with the latest teamd
improve the comments
wait for team ports to come up
install /etc/libnl/classid too
This patch adds the initial support for team device [1].
A new cmdline team= is introduced for it.
Note, currently we don't support stacked devices
on/under team, it is tricky and can be added on request.

No automatic assembly is done anymore by default. You will have to
specify exactly what devices to assemble
("rd.md.uuid=" "rd.luks.uuid" ...)
or use "rd.auto=1" or "rd.auto" on the kernel command line.
For big servers with thousands of disks we don't want to assemble
everything by default (error prone, slow).
