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.

The change to filter out looping or broken symlinks from the initramfs,
written by me for Ubuntu and applied to Debian for #575157, tickles a
bug in find (which I think also had an associated Debian bug, but I've
been unable to find it):
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?29460
This was fixed in 4.5.8, which is currently only in experimental. In
any case findutils is very deep in the dependency chain for upgrades and
I believe it would be a good idea to avoid requiring a new version of it
(I've had problems quite recently with strict dependencies on findutils
causing unresolvable dependency loops). The following patch works
around this bug in a reasonably straightforward way.
[ debian findutils bug was #576772 ]

If the TMPDIR (/tmp by default) is mounted with noexec
the user will notify several lines like:
/usr/sbin/mkinitramfs: 276: /tmp/mkinitramfs_Ck5cpl/scripts/init-top/all_generic_ide: Permission denied
To get rid of that the user can either point $TMPDIR to
a filesystem that's mounted with exec permission or
otherwise the cache_run_scripts() feature won't be
used. Notify user accordingly with a warning message.

MODULES=dep
We can't assume it's always [hs]dX# in /proc/mdstat.
It can be e.g. also [hs]dX (raw device) or dm-## as well.
So don't statically calculate the string based on
string length but instead try to be as smart as
possible. Also add support for handling additional
arguments in the /proc/mdstat output like
"(auto-read-only)".
This affects MODULES=dep only.

mkinitramfs fails to generate a initrd file for root filesystems on an
old mylex raid controller (kernel module DAC960).
In my case this breaks installation for lenny (5.0.3) on a FJS Primergy
server - as this bug is not only in the mentioned version but also in
0.92 which ships on the lenny install cd: The installer can boot, as the
old kernel module is still present. But the base install step fails when
it tries to generate the initrd.
The error in detail, when invoking mkinitramfs manually with -x

mkinitramfs: Error please report the bug
+ exit 1
-------------
So the reason is that mkinitramfs fails to derive the correct block
device notation from the root device as the DAC960 driver uses a strange
format for it.
Once figured out, this is easily corrected. Please find a short patch
for /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions attached.
Thank you,
Claus Herwig

The public domain "license" is very liberal and thus allows
this to be relicensed under mostly any compatible license.
Although not strictly needed many passed contributors agreed on
the license change. Many especially asked for the "or any later version",
thus it is now licensed under GPL v2 or later.
This should ease collaboration with dracut.

initramfs-tools currently requires a device to be hard-coded, but this
is not much use if the network device is not known ahead of time. If
the device specified in either /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf or
on the ip=xxx kernel command line.
usefull for multiple net devices.

"You do want to use -9 as far as LZO is concerned. The compression ratio is way
better, and the extraction time is actually *not* related to the

Albin Tonnerre sent a patch fixing the initramfs LZO decompression,
so heres my fix for initramfs-tools to have compete compression
support. Tell me if you want me to open a new bugreport.
On a side note: this will only work with a patched kernel (might be
upstream with 2.6.34), its a good idea to include a warning for those
running 2.6.33 from experimental
[ adding it on TODO of Lenny linux-2.6 2.6.32 ]
