When you define the gateway for an interface, dracut sets it up with:
ip route add default via $gw dev $netif
If a default route is already set (e.g. if you have multiple NICs), this
will fail with the message "RTNETLINK answers: File exists".
So, if your first NIC isn't usable as a default route
Using "ip route replace default" instead allows ifup/dhclient-script to
correctly change the default route to the new interface.
either by s390 SUBCHANNELS or HWADDR, if the interface name is not
persistent.
Previously, this was bound unconditionally with HWADDR.

When installing OS to a VLAN enabled iscsi LUN (extracted from iBFT), "/tmp/net.{xyz}.has_ibft_config" is not being set properly.
Then anaconda installer requires 'BOOTPROTO="ibft"' populated in ifcfg of the vlan interface (ex: ibft0.20), for it to properly populate the kernel parameters post installation. The setting 'BOOTPROTO="ibft"' is populated by write-ifcfg.sh script only if the corresponding interface has a file /tmp/net.{xyz}.has_inft_config
To get around this issue, in ibft_to_cmdline() function in net-lib.sh file, I made the following changes to populate the has_ibft_config file for the vlan interface(ex: ibft0.20):

When a bonded interface is brought up, any slaves included in the bond
have their hardware address set to that of the bond master. Although
this allows an interface to be brought up on start up, when the
configuration file is imported into the booted system it prevents
the bonded interface being successfully restarted.
The fix involves obtaining the hardware address of the slaves before
they are added to the bond and then using this value in the
configuration file.

Currently the block driver detection for generic initrd doesn't include
the SD/MMC drivers so we fail to boot generic images on any device using
those platforms as boot devices when using a generic initrd. Add logic
to detect those modules. This primarily fixes embedded ARM devices but
also likely intel tablets/dev boards and enterprise hypervisors that
have the ability to boot from SD.
Also the ahci_init_controller misses a number of drivers that use the
libahci_platform module for the init so this fixes some missing achi
moduless too.
Finally it cleans up the ARM storage module hacks that the above now
deals with in a more generic manner.

It turns out that commit f30b74e (dracut-initqueue service runs before

one pulls in remote-fs.target, we can never start remote fs mounts.

If using systemd in initramfs, we could run into a race condition when

To fix such failure, we should use systemd to mount/fsck from /etc/fstab

The variable that dhclient sets doesn't have dhcp in the name. This
could cause problems with setups where the server is not the same as the
dhcp server.
Systemd tries to load this modules very early.
Even though they are not strictly required it it is a good
thing to have them around.

It appears there is a simple substitution error in the pidof shell function which causes it to fail to find processes. In my case, processes started by 95nfs are not terminated in the cleanup hook. This causes knock-on effects disturbing the root filesystem service dependencies.

The dracut dhclient-script.sh should set address lifetimes to the DHCP
lease time, so that other stuff (like NetworkManager!) knows that the
address is temporary and was created by DHCP.

if i18n_install_all is set to "yes", then install all keyboard layouts
and fonts regardless of the hostonly setting.
This way, people can switch keyboard layouts, without having to recreate
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!
parse-resume.sh already contains all the code from resume-genrules.sh.
Also parse-resume.sh is executed before resume-genrules.sh, so there is
no point to keep the latter.
This fixes the following error messages:
dracut-initqueue: ln: failed to create symbolic link '/dev/resume': File exists
dracut-initqueue: rm: cannot remove '/lib/dracut/hooks/initqueue/settled/resume.sh': No such file or directory
dracut-initqueue: rm: cannot remove '/lib/dracut/hooks/initqueue/timeout/resume.sh': No such file or directory
Check for other possible fs types. This fixes swap detection when using
TuxOnIce kernel.
Note that parse-resume.sh generate udev rules with support for
ID_FS_TYPE=suspend, but we do not include it here, because it is
libvolume_id thing and host_fs_types is populated using blkid.
If new kernels have modules split out, handle the case, where modules
have to modalias and just install them.
Also add the crypto drivers and names to host_modalias.
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.
This is similar to the reason for adding the
/run/initramfs/live-baseloop symlink -- access to the original live
image without overlays.
livemedia-creator does not create a osmin.img, so there is no mountable
device for it to use when rsyncing the live image to the target. It
needs a device that points to the original live image without overlays.
Note that lmc won't be creating osmin.img, since really isn't needed any
longer. Its purpose was to provide a minimal image that could be dd'd to
the target. Now that we use rsync this is no longer necessary.
The included patch adds a /dev/mapper/live-base device that Anaconda can
use whether or not there is an osmin present.
mdadm-3.2.6+:
Incremental assembly rule contains "--offroot" arg. Update
regexp to catch this variant.
mdadm-3.3+:
Rules was splitted into two files: 63-md-raid-arrays.rules
and 64-md-raid-assembly.rules. Install them both and edit
the latter.
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.
Configure cmdline to:
ip=br0:dhcp bridge=br0:bond0 bond=bond0:eth0
By default ifup bond0 will run dhcp on bond0, which is wrong. bond0
isn't the top interface. we should really run dhcp on br0.
So if we ifup an network interface on secondary stack, we should not
dhcp. Fix this issue with this patch.
The loop driver could be a module and would never be loaded, so the
iso-scan never takes place.
To let the iso-scan happen, it is now placed into the initqueue/settled
unconditionally.
Cached CMDLINE doesn't work 100%. For example the following case,
1. dracut starts to run dracut-cmdline.sh. CMDLINE is cached when calling
getarg 'rd.break=cmdline'.
2. In 92-parse-ibft.sh, ibft_to_cmdline() calls $(set_ifname ibft xx:xx..)
multiple times in each subshell.
3. In 1st call, set_ifname() will check $(getargs ifname) and write out
ifname=xxxx accordingly.
4. In 2nd call, set_ifname() will check $(getargs ifname) and it's wrong here.
Because in step 3, we introduce a new cmdline arg ifname=xxx, but CMDLINE
isn't updated. Thus we fail to get the new ifname arg.
It's doable to unset CMDLINE every time after a new cmdline arg is in. But
unset should be done in the parent process, because unset CMDLINE in a
subshell won't unset CMDLINE in its parent or sibling process. And also it's
painful to unset CMDLINE every time. In the future, functions and code
snippet could probably separate or move to other file, the unset CMDLINE could
malfunction again like this time.
So I'm thinking not to cache CMDLINE. It's doesn't hurt to re-read all the
cmdline args everytime. Because it's in initramfs, a non cached _getcmdline()
should be fast enough.
Please consider!
Thanks

Previously if "$rootok" = 1, parsing of netroot command line arguments
was skipped. For multiple netroot arguments, all parse scripts have to
run.
Previously only the first netroot argument was taken into account for
the parsing scripts. Now every netroot argument is processed.
Fix 3 issues in ibft_to_cmdline():
- unset local variables at the beginning of each loop
- only write vlan.conf when we write out ip=xxx
- when vlan id is 0, don't write out vlan.conf. Because 0 means untagged
and we don't actually need vlan interface.

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

To eliminate a race condition that occurs when unlocking one device
depends on the result of unlocking a device before it, the crypt
module must wait for udev to settle between each unlock attempt.
Example
/etc/crypttab:
keyfile /dev/md1 none luks
sda4_crypt /dev/sda4 /dev/mapper/keyfile luks
sdb4_crypt /dev/sdb4 /dev/mapper/keyfile luks
Without this patch, sometimes /dev/sda4 fails to unlock because udev
doesn't have time to create /dev/mapper/keyfile before it's needed.
Prevents following error message:
I: *** Including module: crypt ***
/usr/lib/dracut/modules.d/90crypt/module-setup.sh: line 31: /etc/crypttab: No such file or directory
kernel-tegra is now part of the base kernel package, so bits and pieces
ended up modular, and as a result, if you boot off the internal USB, you
drop to a dracut shell with no way of getting to root.
In the kernel comments PARTUUID is shown using uppercase A-F:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/init/do_mounts.c?id=HEAD#n183
However, dracut tries to use the value of PARTUUID directly in
/dev/disks/by-partuuid/ which expects the hex to be lowercase. This will
cause root to never be found, oops!
Fix dracut so it can, like the Kernel, accept either casing.
Untested but I added a hack on my local system that was similar.
$NEWROOT/dev and its submounts should be umounted after we use it.
Otherwise it fails other scripts that umount /sysroot only.

configured_ifaces is a function that returns the names of each interface
that the user wanted configured.
Currently, this is accomplished by reading the list from
/tmp/net.ifaces. But if we want to allow the user to specify an
interface by its MAC address or IP or something, we need a function that
will read the cache and convert the MACs etc. to names.
(Obviously this conversion only works once udev starts, so it will warn
you if you try it too early.)
Now that we can use a MAC as a device identifier, we can just bring up
the device specified by BOOTIF as a normal interface.
So instead of ignoring everything but BOOTIF, we'll put BOOTIF in the
IFACES list and bring it up as normal, defaulting to DHCP if nothing
else is specified.
We can also handle anaconda-style 'ksdevice=bootif' this way.
