init: provide fastforward path for the common case when validating init binary.

init: provide validate_init() wrapper to support absolute symlinks.

2010-08-07T03:02:05+00:00

If /sbin/init is an absolute symlink (e.g. to /bin/systemd) the readlink check doesn't work as $rootmnt is involved. The validate_init() shell function takes care of this fact, as well as when guessing the init binary points to a directory. For example Ubuntu's upstart has its configuration inside /etc/init whereas this is considered a valid run_init_process() binary by the Linux kernel and `test -x' returns true when checking for executables. Therefore be more conservative with providing full backwards compability as well as new added support for absolute symlinks at the same time. Closes: #590744

hook-functions/init/scripts/local: add support for ubifs.

2010-06-16T14:48:06+00:00

MODULES=dep fails when / is ubifs. This patch adds support for something like root=ubi0:rootfs when ubi is modular. Quoting Martin: It essentially does three things: - adds the correct modules to the ramdisk (for MODULES=dep and MODULES=most) - reads ubi.mtd= from the command line - loads ubi with the ubi.mtd info and ignores the "Waiting for root" check I've successfully tested this with a kernel with modular ubi and with the following boot variants: console=ttyS0,115200 ubi.mtd=2 root=ubi0:rootfs rootfstype=ubifs console=ttyS0,115200 ubi.mtd=2 root=ubi0_0 rootfstype=ubifs With console=ttyS0,115200 ubi.mtd=2 root=/dev/ubi0_0 rootfstype=ubifs I get an error that it cannot mount root but I suspect this is an ubifs error and has nothing to do with i-t (since at this point I can manually mount it with -t ubifs ubi0_0 whereas the /dev/ variant doesn't work). Tested with MODULES=dep and MODULES=most as well as with a kernel that has ubifs built in. Closes: #582858 Thanks: Martin Michlmayr Signed-off-by: Martin Michlmayr Reviewed-by: Michael Prokop

init: display warning message if devtmpfs could not be mounted.

2010-06-14T10:06:13+00:00

Older kernel versions (like the one shipped with Lenny) don't support devtmpfs. Therefore display a warning message when falling back to tmpfs. See #501359. Thanks: Ferenc Wagner Signed-off-by: Michael Prokop

init: add BOOTIF bootarg

2010-04-10T04:39:45+00:00

as mentioned by Christoph Bussenius in #535008, it does appear that setting BOOTIF from the value in /proc/cmdline is needed. at the time i wrote the patch, i'm not sure it was, but it definitely is now. with these patchese applied, it seems to work. at least for the moment.
