[arch-projects] [INITSCRIPTS][PATCH 1/2] Drop old /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug logic
by Sebastien Luttringer 13 Apr '11

13 Apr '11

No trace of uevent_helper in udev code. http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux%2Fhotplug%2Fudev.git&a=search&h=HEAD&st=grep… No trace of uevent_helper or hotplug in /lib/udev/rules.d/ >From http://lwn.net/Articles/166954/ The hotplug helper /sbin/hotplug is now officially deprecated. The control file /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug has moved to /sys/kernel/uevent_helper, but it is expected to be disabled on most systems in favor of udev and the netlink interface. So this is an old legagy. We should drop it.

[arch-projects] [mkinitcpio] [RFC 0/2] Introduce /run
by Thomas Bächler 08 Apr '11

08 Apr '11

This patchset introduces /run into mkinitcpio. The size and mode options of the tmpfs should be the same in mkinitcpio and initscripts. Please comment.

[arch-projects] [initscripts] Linux distributions and /run/
by Thomas Bächler 08 Apr '11

08 Apr '11

This was discussed in a bug report iirc, here is some summary: http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/Linux-distributions-to-include-run-d… Apparently, many tools (among them udev) will soon require a /run/ directory that is mounted early (as tmpfs). It is probably a good idea to add this to the filesystem and initscripts packages.

[arch-projects] [initscripts] minor cleanups and fixes
by Tom Gundersen 03 Apr '11

03 Apr '11

Hi guys, I'm planning to push the following patches, and thought I'd ask for some acks before going ahead. Most are just minor fixes. The patches marked "workaround" are removing workarounds that have been in initscripts for a long time. I think we should either remove them or annotate them with the relevant upstream bugreport, so we can track what is happening and don't end up keeping these things forever. The last patch (which creates directories in /dev that otherwise would be created by udev) is, besides the justification given in the commit message, usefull if we ever want to support bootlogd (I think we do!), as it would have to be started before udev is running. Please shout if you have any objections! Cheers, Tom
