2012-09-17install/base: update help verbiageDave Reisner1-2/+2
This hasn't provided actual directories in a while. Reword it to point out that it's only providing the critical scripts and binaries for booting. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-09-17install fstab/mtab as part of base layoutDave Reisner1-5/+0
These are low level enough that they should be part of the base layout, similar to the filesystem package in userspace. Later hooks can easily override these, if they really want to. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-07-15initalize buildroot later, and out outside of hooksDave Reisner1-10/+1
mkinitcpio needs to be able to more tightly control the layout of the image. By moving this outside the control of the base hook, it's more reasonable to believe that a drop-in replacement for the base hook could be written, as it now only contains the utilities required for the /init that it provides. Being that initialize_buildroot is outside of a hook, we can make "raw" calls to coreutils that create the directories and symlinks, saving some overhead and forking. This also symlinks /usr/local/{lib,bin} into the common /usr/lib and /usr/bin, respectively, so that there's always a way to override libs and bins, and they're automatically pulled into our strict early init path of /usr/bin. Finally, we lump all this generally a little "later" in the early setup. This addresses an unseen "bug" wherein an extra temp directory that never gets used is created when leveraging a preset.

2012-05-18usr: add usr mounting as a late running hookDave Reisner1-1/+0
Mount separate /usr partitions voluntarily, as a late running hook. This is an unfortunate patch that will no doubt result in some hatemail, though it won't thoroughly break anyone to the point of not booting. As a side effect, findmnt is no longer a requisite of the core /init, so move it to the shutdown and usr hooks where it's required. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-05-18mkinitcpio: write image config after install hooksDave Reisner1-15/+0
Break this out of install/base into a separate function. We need to be able to read from the RUNHOOKS array to accurately specify which hooks to execute at runtime. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-05-02ensure that cmdline added hooks are run properly in early initDave Reisner1-1/+2
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-04-02create /lib as a symlink to /usr/lib0.8.6Dave Reisner1-0/+1
This makes us a little more future proof as far as moving files around. No need for 2 lib/ directories in early userspace anyways. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-04-02base: move usb modprobe rule to /usr/lib/modprobe.dDave Reisner1-1/+1
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-03-28fsck: leverage blank /etc/fstab included by baseDave Reisner1-1/+1
Since 3b18c9cd we have a blank /etc/fstab in the image. This is also forward thinking for the next release of util-linux (2.22), where fsck complains loudly about my filthy hack of using /dev/null as /etc/fstab. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-03-04add support for HOOKDIR/INSTDIR as arraysDave Reisner1-4/+4
This is a really ugly patch, but allows mkinitcpio to read hooks from multiple locations, namely: /usr/lib/initcpio/{install,hooks} /lib/initcpio/{install,hooks} Preference is given to the first, and all files included with mkinitcpio are moved there. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-01-28avoid absolute paths in add_binary callsDave Reisner1-4/+4
This makes us more resilient against path changes -- add_binary is smart enough to resolve the path for us. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-01-28install/base: drop support for m-i-tDave Reisner1-1/+6
Install kmod in /usr/bin and provide symlinks for all the applets to the kmod multi-call. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-01-13base: add findmnt as a part of the base layoutDave Reisner1-0/+1
This is required for mounting a separate /usr. While the shutdown hook is essentially a soft requirement for a separate /usr, we shouldn't break init. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-11-29busybox: create symlinks manuallyTom Gundersen1-0/+5
This means that no "setup" of the initramfs is requried on boot, and this should make testing a lot eaiser by just chrooting into the ramfs to check if it works. Signed-off-by: Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no>
2011-11-29move all binaries to /usr/binTom Gundersen1-1/+5
Add compat symlinks from /bin, /sbin and /usr/sbin, so nothing is lost. This will make sure that it is not possibly to install two different versions of the same binary in PATH. The main usecase of this is that we want to be able to override any symlink provided by busybox by adding a binary by the same name. With this patch we don't have to worry in case the busybox symlink and the binary we add are in different directories; the last binary to be added always takes precedence. Signed-off-by: Tom Gundersen <teg@jklm.no>
2011-11-29install/base: Add an empty fstabGerardo Exequiel Pozzi1-0/+3
This is mainly for avoid this: [ramfs /]# mount /dev/md0 /mnt/a [ramfs /]# mount -o bind /mnt/a /mnt/b [ramfs /]# mount -o bind,remount,ro /mnt/b warning: can't open /etc/fstab: No such file or directory [ramfs /]# Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-11-29hooks/net: Refactor and remove sed cmd usage.Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi1-1/+1
* ipconfig cmd writes a file in /tmp that is ready for direct evaluation. We can use this instead of parsing the output, to do this some variable renames are needed. * Add /tmp as part of "base" layout since this can be used by others hooks/cmds. Signed-off-by: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar>
2011-11-15use util-linux's switch_root binaryDave Reisner1-0/+1
This is a much better solution than busybox's, as it will move our API filesystems and /run for us. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-11-15init: use util-linux's /bin/mountDave Reisner1-0/+3
Providing this means we no longer need blkid for FS detection, as mount will do this for us. Adds a slight bloat to the image, in exchange for a huge convenience. Messaging is changed to assume that /bin/mount will provide useful feedback for us on failure. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-10-22install/base: include new_root as part of build processDave Reisner1-1/+1
We always need this in early userspace, so add it as part of the build process instead of forking at runtime. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-10-10install/base: grab usb-ehci udev rule to /lib0.7.4Dave Reisner1-1/+1
Done as part of FS#25788. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-09-27functions: allow ignoring errors on module additionDave Reisner1-1/+1
We conditionally, but naively, add modules in some of our install hooks, but the kernel may not have these. Note that these modules can fail silently by detecting a '?' suffix on the module name. In conjunction with this, the add_module function now takes a flag, -t or --try, which will ignore module not found errors from modinfo. The config file will also support this syntax. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-09-27base: remove superfluous leading /Dave Reisner1-1/+1
The doubled up leading slashes annoy me in the verbose output. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-07-02base/install: rewrite the config to sanitize itDave Reisner1-2/+15
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-06-27install/base: use private API call to add configDave Reisner1-1/+3
We can't let add_file get its hands on the config file, because we need to be sure that an absolute path is honored. As a side effect, ensure that $BASEDIR is appended to the config file during preset processing. Thanks-to: Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi <vmlinuz386@yahoo.com.ar> Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-06-25install/base: cleanup and simplifyDave Reisner1-22/+12
* Create only the directories that are necessary. If others are needed, they'll be created along the way. As part of this, we create /new_root sooner in init, so it's less jarring to the user if they request a break. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <d@falconindy.com>
2011-06-25remove support for -m to add a startup messageDave Reisner1-4/+0
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <d@falconindy.com>
2011-06-16functions: remove add_deviceDave Reisner1-5/+0
This was only ever used in the base layout, and it's not needed. devices will be present if we're using devtmpfs, and created for us by init if we mount on tmpfs. Also, this is part of our move towards using bsdcpio instead of gen_init_cpio, and as a side effect we can no longer support this. Any devices that need to be created should be done so by the runtime hooks, not the install time hooks. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <d@falconindy.com>
2011-06-16mkinitcpio: deprecate install() in install hooksDave Reisner1-1/+1
This is an unfortunate name clash with a common utility and should be avoided. Rename the install function to 'build' and warn the user when we discover a hook using an 'install' function. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <d@falconindy.com>
2011-04-08Introduce /runThomas Bächler1-0/+1
Mount /run as a 10MB tmpfs with 1777 permissions early. Move it to /new_root when switching.
2010-06-26Add back /dev/{zero,null,mem} to the initramfs imageThomas Bächler1-0/+3
These devices might be actually needed before (dev)tmpfs is mounted, for example when uvesafb is built into the kernel (no module). By creating them in the image, they will be present as soon as initramfs has been extracted. Fixes https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/19903.
2010-06-10Create /dev/{null,zero,mem,console} devices when devtmpfs is missingThomas Bächler1-3/+0
These devices used to be present because they were added in the image. Since we now mount {dev,}tmpfs early in initramfs, the devices from the image will be invisible. In the tmpfs-case, create the devices manually so everything will be in order until udev is started, or if udev isn't used at all.
