By convention, strstr should be a literal string match. Previously, it
would match as a glob pattern. Some code used that, so add new
functions strglob and strglobin to do what that code expects, and
specify them tightly too. strglob tests whether the glob pattern
matches the entire string (the name strglob is also used in the yorick
language, and that's what it does there), while strglobin tests whether
the glob pattern matches anywhere in the string.
Also tightens str_starts, str_ends, and str_replace to deal with
literal strings only. In a quick grep I did not find code that depended
on these functions matching globs.
Changes the call sites where strstr was used with glob patterns to use
strglobin or strglob as the intention seemed to be (or, in one case,
strstr with the * removed as it did not affect the result anyway).
Some distros, including debian unstable with 2.6.30, still shop
style ide drivers and/or have important filesystems like ext3 as
modules.
This patch ensures that all test cases work on these configurations
by including the necessary modules and adding a simple udev rule
file that provides /dev/sd* symlinks for the case where old style
ide drivers are still in use.
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
