| Current TODO list, broken into things which are relevant for the |
| initramfs itself (/init et al) vs the generator. |
| A lot of things are/should be marked with "FIXME" in the code. |
| |
| Items are ordered in priority. |
| |
| INITRAMFS TODO |
| |
| - search domain string |
| - peerdns=no |
| - allow dual stack configuration (IPv4, IPv6) for the same interface |
| - "bind-mount" kernel drivers in real root for the rescue image, |
| if the real root does not have any kernel modules for this kernel |
| https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1046510 |
| - use info and warn prefix |
| - generate systemd unit dracut-initramfs-restore in /run/systemd dynamically |
| - put "root=" parsing hooks in separate hook dir |
| - call "root=" parsing hooks after getting new rootpath from dhcp |
| - put mount hook in main initqueue loop / careful about resume! |
| - the hard-coded list of udev rules that we care about is kind of lame. |
| - panic fallback |
| - bridging/bonding without "netroot=" https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=822750 |
| - progress indication for fsck https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=827118 |
| - domain, searchdomain https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840778 |
| - disable write-ifcfg https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=840784 |
| - check for /var to be mounted in convertfs https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=848172 |
| - probably fix "--include" https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=849338 |
| |
| GENERATOR TODO |
| |
| - report errors on missing files in check() |
| - remove wait for swap devs, if no "resume=" is given on the kernel command line |
| - remove wait for swap devs, if the "resume" dracut module is not included (omitted) |
| - add presets (predefined set of modules) |
| - add interpreter/plugin-scripts to be sourced at the beginning or end (can use dracut-functions) |
| - add mechanism for module specific command line options |
| - pkg-config integration, to make it easy for other packages to use us. |
| - default module specification could use some work |
| - udev rule copying, as mentioned above, is a bit too hard-coded |
| |
| - dracut-install parse LD_SHOW_AUXV="" AT_PLATFORM for lib install |
| |
| CODE TODO |
| |
| - document more functions |
| - make function vars local, and prefix with "_" |
| |
| Future Enhancement Requests |
| |
| - run ssh server to enter crypto password or perform debugging (supported by debian) |
| - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=524727 - dracut + encrypted root + networking |
| |
| - lsinitrd --print-cmdline |
| - dracut --print-cmdline error if additional arguments |
| - library for cmdline |
