initramfs-tools (0.114) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
[ Roger Leigh ]
* Generalise logic used for mounting the rootfs:
- The existing logic was only intended for mounting the root
filesystem; this logic has been refactored to support the
mounting of multiple filesystems
- Add a read_fstab_entry function to parse /etc/fstab on the
mounted rootfs
- Add resolve_device function which generalises the existing
support for resolving LABEL= and UUID= strings to the
corresponding device node
- Add general mount_top, mount_premount and mount_bottom functions,
with boot-script-specific variants for the local and nfs scripts;
other boot scripts should override them if needed; the local and
nfs scripts show how to use these to redirect to a specific
implementation
- Add general mountfs function to mount a filesystem from the
/etc/fstab on the mounted rootfs. This works for both local and
nfs mounts; other boot scripts may override it to provide more
specialised functionality
- Add general mountetc function to mount /etc; this works for both
local and nfs /etc; other boot scripts may override it to provide
more specialised functionality
- The local and nfs bottom scripts are run on demand if used; this
does not interfere with alternative boot scripts being used,
which will run first
- Canonicalise device names to match util-linux mount behaviour;
this ensures that "mount -a" in mountall does not try to mount
/usr a second time (which it will attempt if the mounted device
does not match the canonical device name)
* Mount /usr if present in the /etc/fstab on the mounted rootfs
(Closes: #652459)
* Mount /etc if specified on the kernel command-line
* Check filesystems prior to mounting (Closes: #708000):
- Add empty /etc/fstab and symlink /etc/mtab to /proc/mounts;
not essential, but quell a number of fsck warnings
- Copy fsck and needed fsck helpers, plus logsave
- Add checkfs function, based on the initscripts checkroot
script
- local mount functions will call checkfs prior to mounting
the filesystem
