2010-02-21poll_device: do not wait for a device to appear if udevd is not runningThomas Bächler1-0/+3
Devices will never "magically" appear when udevd is not running. Thus, poll_device now exits instantly when a device when udevd is not running. The return value is unchanged, just the delay is removed. Assuming that the drive is available just after loading the module is unsafe. However, "fast" devices like most (all?) pata/sata seem to work this way for many people. On "slow" devices like USB, we still have to wait - those will not work without udev.

mount point The old check couldn't distinguish different tmpfs mounts and failed to work with aufs (archiso). This check is actually the same one that busybox/switch_root uses to determine where to stop deleting files. If this check fails and we still launch switch_root it may start deleting data.

2010-02-16Introduce mount handlersThomas Bächler1-9/+5
Instead of having special NFS code in /init, make it possible for a hook to register a mount handler When a hook sets the mount_handler environment variable, the normal mount code will be skipped and the handler will be called with the path to mount point as the first and only argument.

2010-02-15If we could not mount the real root device, or the init program did not ↵Thomas Bächler1-1/+18
exist on it, bail out instead of panicing In these cases, we will exec /bin/sh, such that manual recovery is still possible as sh has PID 1 An expert might be able to mount and switch_root manually. In any case, this is less scary than a panic and a useless trace.
2010-02-14Kill udev after mounting file systems, not beforeThomas Bächler1-9/+10
Slow devices like USB devices will be detected after we kill udev, thus booting will fail. Kill udev as the last step, directly before we umount /proc and /sys and run switch_root.

2009-09-30rootdelay check: Fix compatibility with other sh implementations than dash ↵Thomas Bächler1-1/+1
and make it more reliable The old implementation failed on bash and failed on both if rootdelay was not a number. The logic is now as follows: If "$rootdelay"="", then [ -z "${rootdelay}" ] is true If not, then the part after the || is executed - if ${rootdelay} is not a number, or is <0, then [ ${rootdelay} -ge 0 ] fails, and the test will return true due to the !. The previous implementation failed here, because [ ! ${rootdelay} -ge 0 ] returns false on error, while ! [ ${rootdelay} -ge 0 ] returns true on error.

2009-06-07Don't only check for block devices, but also for symbolic links.Thomas Bächler1-1/+1
If we have a symlink, we don't check further if it points to a block device, partially due to klibc's readlink being broken.

2009-06-06Rework the root device detection / creation stageThomas Bächler1-36/+34
- Set rootdelay to 10 by default - Skip the whole detection stage if we use root on nfs - Use the new poll_device function to wait for at most $rootdelay seconds - Always pass rootdelay=0 to kinit, as we ensure the existence of the root device - Don't reboot after the fallback. This allows a user to fix a problem and continue booting - Rely on kinit to detect the root filesystem type. The rootfstype= option can still be used to override Our old method would have failed as well, as the code for filesystem detection is the same

This one exports $rootdelay to $kinit_params to avoid having to wait for $rootdelay 2 times when one specifies rootdelay=x on the kernel cmdline (one in init, one for kinit)... git-svn-id: http://projects.archlinux.org/svn/initramfs/mkinitcpio@201 880c04e9-e011-0410-abf7-b926e227c9cd

The attached patch places the $root check before killing udev. The point is this: It gives udev a chance to create the device. It also prints a message saying "if you see the device being created here, try passing rootdelay=8 or higher to the kernel" also some minor edits: - Use echo instead of message when dropping into the shell when $root isn't found. People will always want to see those message i guess... - fixed a little typo : "use d echo * " is now "use echo * " mkinitcpio-rev199-place-rootcheck-before-killing-udev.patch git-svn-id: http://projects.archlinux.org/svn/initramfs/mkinitcpio@200 880c04e9-e011-0410-abf7-b926e227c9cd
