[arch-projects] [mkinicpio] shutdown hooks
by Tom Gundersen 04 Aug '11

04 Aug '11

Hi Thomas, Your main concern with the shutdown hook, as far as I could tell, was that it was not clear how it could be extended. I put up a quick proof of concept here: <https://github.com/teg/mkinitcpio/commit/909fcb7793e072cf0091a232ff4d8cb535…>, of what I had in mind (will not work, completely untested, just to give an idea, etc.). The idea would be to add a hook which did "vgchange -a n" for lvn, and similarly for mdadm etc. The hooks will then be tried repeatedly until they have all succeeded. As an example I put the unmount hook. I didn't think it would be worth adding support for generic hooks until it was clear that this was the direction we were going in, that's why it was not there in the initial version. I rebased the other patches based on your comments, but I'll give them a test before asking you to pull. Cheers, Tom

[arch-projects] [mkinitcpio] mounting /usr from the initrd
by Tom Gundersen 02 Aug '11

02 Aug '11

Hi guys, I have been thinking about sorting out /usr being a separate mountpoint. Mainly because I keep getting bug reports that turn out to be caused by this. The current status is that we move some tools from /usr to / in the hope that this will allow us to boot without /usr being mounted. This mostly works, but not quite, as there are still stuff left in /usr that are used by early boot (and mostly just fails silently). This website created by the systemd folks sums it up nicely (just replace "systemd" with "initscripts" everywhere): <http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/separate-usr-is-broken>. The solution they propose, and which I agree with, is to mount /usr from the initrd just as we mount / (an alternative solution is to just declare separate /usr as not supported, but I guess that would not make us popular). Before working up a patch, I wanted to hear if there are any objections to this approach, and in particular that Thomas agrees that it is the right way to go. The interface I suggest is to allow two new kernel options "usr" and "rootflags" that correspond to "root" and "rootflags". The pivot_root stuff I submitted recently will already take care of unmounting. The syntax could obviously be discussed, and I suggest getting in touch with the dracut guys to make sure we choose the same syntax (I don't think they yet have support for this, but I might be wrong). Any thoughts? Cheers, Tom PS A nice sideeffect is that once we have this we can simplify a lot of our PKGBUILDS as they never need to put stuff in / any more, and eventually /bin, /sbin and /lib will be empty and can just be symlinked to /usr/{{,s}bin,lib}.
