This syntax is frozen since years. A new one provided by systemd its emerging. Well deprecation seems a good idea but I think you do it too loudly. Let users choose it's not blame those who use the old one by warning at boot. Everyone love a bootup without be remembered that you are outdated. You make something wonderful with initscripts by allowing a smooth transition between rc.d and systemd. This allow people (which want it) to have a standardized configurations for both initscripts and systemd. If the rise of systemd continues, it's not cryptsetup will be deprecated, it's initscripts. So my advice is to do it quietly. > While the syntax is different, the functionality does not change much. > We gain a few minor features and lose the ability to read a decryption > key from a removable device (i.e. one that needs to be mounted by the > cryptsetup code).

Just froze the old syntax. Add new feature to the new one (Leannert do it for us) and people will move smoothly to systemd. You already plan to support the old syntax, so to don't remove the code, why tell to people they are on the old syntax. > Finally, I was never very comfortable with maintaining this code, as I > hardly use it and it is rather fragile.

This thats "status -v" issue broke the boot of testing users in your last release. Cheers, -- Sébastien "Seblu" Luttringer www.seblu.net

[arch-projects] [mkinitcpio] post-image-creation hook
by C Anthony Risinger 20 Jul '12

20 Jul '12

i'm working on my pandaboard (arm7hf architecture) and making the necessary tweaks to make mkinitcpio compatible OOTB (archlinuxarm.org upstream). the changes are minimal: - modify `resolve_kernver` to support looking at `uImage files` # file /boot/uImage /boot/uImage: u-boot legacy uImage, Linux-3.4.4-1-ARCH, Linux/ARM, OS Kernel Image (Not compressed), 4557120 bytes, Mon Jul 16 21:32:19 2012, Load Address: 0x80008000, Entry Point: 0x80008000, Header CRC: 0xD586CD31, Data CRC: 0xE965D864 ... i'm not sure the `Linux-3.4.4-ARCH` tag is generated though, i think its just assigned during creation. i extracted the zImage (not a bzImage) from the uImage, but the `file` output is near worthless (i think the ARM guys are stripping it or something). - add support for a post-image-creation event need to generate a u-boot compatible uImage from the raw initramfs. i can do a really nasty hack and call mkinitcpio from within a preset file (ie. nested mkinitcpio ...), run mkimage, then exit ... but that's absolutely disgusting ... solution? -- C Anthony

Keeping everything in the manpage means we don't have to deal with .pacnew files when updating minor detals (such as default options). Furthermore, all the removed options are recommended to be left unset. Only if you have special needs should you need to change them.

[arch-projects] [mkinitcpio] overwrite files/symlinks
by Christian Hesse 18 Jul '12

18 Jul '12

Hello everybody, I added a hook to the initramfs whose install script added 'uname' by using add_binary. This resulted in major breakage and a kernel panicing on boot. I suppose this is because there is a symlink from uname to busybox - with adding uname I killed the busybox binary. Is this ok by design or do we want to raise an error if something like this happens? I created a patch (see attachment). Does this make sense? -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Chris get my mail address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* gcc -o sig sig.c && ./sig */b/42*2-3)*42);}
