2012-11-24build: move manpages to subdirDave Reisner1-297/+0
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-11-24obsolete old-style install hook APIDave Reisner1-2/+1
This removes any meaning from the definitions of MODULES, BINARIES, FILES, and SCRIPT within install hooks. It also removed the deprecated checked_modules() function, which is replaced by add_checked_modules(). Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>

2012-09-17functions: allow add_symlink to only take a single argDave Reisner1-3/+6
In the case of a single arg, use readlink(1) to resolve the target of the symlink. Document this, and additionally note the lack of guarantee about the target of the symlink. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-09-17mkinitcpio.8: add missing doc for add_symlinkDave Reisner1-0/+5

2012-07-28mkinitcpio: rename longopt for --add to --addhooksDave Reisner1-1/+1
Rename this option so that it mirrors the longopt name for -S, --skiphooks. The original --add option remains behind in the option parser for backwards compatability, but no other references remain. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-07-28implement --moduleroot optionDave Reisner1-0/+3
This might be useful for creating an initramfs image as part of a kernel package. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-06-05fix doc error for add_full_dirDave Reisner1-3/+4
This function was incorrectly named in the manpage, and is misleading since it will add symlinks, rather than follow them, as of 96e616f06785. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-05-19manpage: remove explcit author list0.9.0Dave Reisner1-10/+2
This is what git is for. At this point, I've (re)written the majority of the page anyways. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-05-19manpage: expand doc on build and runtime hooksDave Reisner1-10/+98
Fully document the recommended API for install hooks, and the various hook points available for early userspace hooks. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-05-16document special kernel cmdline parametersDave Reisner1-0/+51
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-05-12mkinitcpio: remove --basedir optionDave Reisner1-10/+4
This option is just a bad idea. Initramfs creation is too important to get wrong, and running it from outside the root FS has too many gotchas, the worst of them being: - where do you pull hooks from? - how do you resolve binary dependencies within the root? In general, dealing with the extra luggage of the base directory makes the codebase more complicated than it needs to be (see all the '_' prefixed functions which are called from add functions). In favor of simplifying the code, and making it more maintainable, kill this off and force the sane option of chroot'ing into an install if the need arises.

2012-04-22mkinitcpio.8: manpage cleanupDave Reisner1-2/+2
tweak styling of synopsis and link to lsintcpio in SEE ALSO Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-04-22mkinitcpio: adopt parseopts for option parsingDave Reisner1-16/+16
Updates the doc and bash-completion, as well. Also adds the previously unmentioned -A option to the --help output. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-03-04add -A option to specify extra hooksDave Reisner1-1/+6
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-03-04mkinitcpio: allow -S to be specified multiple timesDave Reisner1-0/+1
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2012-03-04add support for HOOKDIR/INSTDIR as arraysDave Reisner1-0/+1
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>
2012-01-28man: replace refs to kernel26 with linux, et alDave Reisner1-5/+5

2011-10-20manpage: correct section number in manpage headerDave Reisner1-1/+1
Missed this when I migrated the manpage in 5d635b6d. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-10-16mkinitcpio: avoid stomping on TMPDIR from the environmentDave Reisner1-1/+2
cc36db45 was a bit too strict about localizing variables and blew out TMPDIR, which might be a legit variable sourced from the calling environment. Restore this behavior with a bit of refactoring, and additionally add in a check to make sure the temporary directory is writeable before proceeding. Fixes FS#26373. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
2011-10-16move manpage to section 8Dave Reisner1-0/+150
This is an admin command, not a config file. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
