    106 niro 1805 * [r1778] new-kernel-pkg:
    107     -support /etc/os-release

    118    
    119 niro 1772 * [r1757] new-kernel-pkg:
    120     -let the menuentries match our grub-cosmetic patch
    121     * [r1756] new-kernel-pkg:
    122     -fix a infinite loop caused by dropping the path prefix of
    123     mkinitrd
    124     * [r1754] ChangeLog:
    125     updated ChangeLog
    126 niro 1754 * [r1753] VERSION:
    127     -version 8.8_20120218
    128     * [r1752] new-kernel-pkg:
    129     new-kernel-pkg fails to find U-Boot.
    130    
    131     new-kernel-pkg fails to find U-Boot if the boot directory is not
    132     on a
    133     separate partition.
    134    
    135     This only affects the U-Boot image creation section of the
    136     new-kernel-pkg
    137     script, for ARM based systems. My initial changes were only
    138     tested on
    139     specific ARM-OMAP systems that required a specific U-Boot
    140     partition.
    141     Testing
    142     on additional systems (ARM-Tegra) revealed this incorrect
    143     assumption.
    144    
    145     The attached patch includes the following:
    146    
    147     - Cosmetic: Correction - change uBoot to U-Boot in comments.
    148     - Additions:
    149     -- Recognize ARCH == armv7hl
    150     -- Make U-Boot load/execute address variable (based on machine)
    151     -- Bug: Correct invalid assumption that the U-Boot directory
    152     would
    153     always
    154     be on a separate partition.
    155     * [r1751] grubby.c:

    158     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    159     * [r1750] grubby.c:
    160     Fix endswith() to correctly test its input for validity.
    161     * [r1749] installkernel, new-kernel-pkg:
    162     Fix hard coded paths so kernel's "make install" will DTRT.
    163     * [r1748] grubby.c:
    164     Implement support for "default saved" for grub2
    165    
    166     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    167     * [r1747] grubby.c:
    168     Include prefix when printing kernel information
    169    
    170     When running grubby with '--info=', the initrd is displayed with
    171     the
    172     boot prefix, so, for correctness, also include it in the kernel
    173     line.

    175     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    176     * [r1746] grubby.c:
    177     Refactor grub2 title extraction, making it a function
    178    
    179     '--default-title' now uses that functions, but others such as
    180     '--info'
    181     could, IMHO, also display the title and thus, use the refactored
    182     function.

    185     * [r1745] grubby.c:

    187     * [r1743] ChangeLog:
    188     updated ChangeLog
    189 niro 1743 * [r1742] VERSION:
    190     -version 8.8
    191     * [r1741] test.sh:

    193     * [r1739] ChangeLog:
    194     updated ChangeLog
    195 niro 1739 * [r1738] VERSION:

    198     test/results/debug/g2.1[ADD], test/results/debug/g2.1.2[ADD]:
    199     Add a test case for --debug.
    200    
    201     Make sure --debug works as expected in both successful and failed
    202     attempts.
    203     * [r1736] grubby.8, grubby.c:
    204     grubby: Add --debug option to annotate "suitable template"
    205     failures
    206    
    207     Today, when grubby fails with "no suitable template found" the
    208     user
    209     has no idea why that might be. These can fail for several
    210     reasons.
    211     So add a --debug option to print out the line in grubby.c where
    212     it
    213     failed, a text message describing the failure, and a copy of the
    214     bootloader entry that failed, to aid investigation.

    222     Fix another test broken by 4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a
    223     * [r1730] ChangeLog:

    227     * [r1728] new-kernel-pkg:
    228     Don't hardcode dracut path. (#768645)
    229    
    230     dracut moved from /sbin to /usr/bin, so fix that, but also it's
    231     pointless to hardcode what's in PATH.
    232     * [r1727] grubby.c, test.sh, test/results/remove/g2-1.4[ADD]:
    233     Use dummy entries for text following kernel entries so it is
    234     preserved
    235     (#744717)
    236    
    237     Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson <awilliam@redhat.com>
    238     * [r1726] test/results/defaulttitle/g2.1:
    239     Fix up one test result for changes from
    240     4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a84a5
    241     * [r1724] ChangeLog:

    243 niro 1724 * [r1723] VERSION:

    246     test/results/add/g2-1.2, test/results/add/g2-1.3:
    247     Update "echo 'Loading..." messages to the new kernel version
    248    
    249     grub2-mkconfig will create lines like:
    250     echo 'Loading Linux 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64
    251     ...'
    252     - depending on the content of /etc/default/grub.
    253    
    254     grubby would recognize these lines and replace them with lines
    255     with the
    256     right
    257     version number such as:
    258     echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64)'
    259    
    260     these lines were however not recognized by grubby and would not
    261     be
    262     updated on
    263     next kernel update when this entry would be used as template.
    264    
    265     With this patch grubby will no longer look for a specific title
    266     but
    267     patch any
    268     "echo 'Loading" line immediately before the kernel line.

    342     We are looking to use grubby as a bootloader entries
    343     manager for the autotest project:
    344    
    345     http://autotest.kernel.org/
    346    
    347     The project aims to cover more distros than just
    348     red hat based ones, so this small patch fixes the
    349     tool under Ubuntu. They have chosen to name grub2
    350     grub, in all directory references. Also, they don't
    351     make symlinks of grub config files on /etc. So,
    352     adapt the code to take into consideration this
    353     behavior.
    354    
    355     Changes from v1:
    356     * Removed nested set of {}
    357     * Made the return in case /etc/grub.d is found
    358     indented
    359     * Moved the dbgPrint("not found\n") statement
    360     before the last return. Also, put a new
    361     dbgPrint("found\n") if we've found a suitable
    362     grub2 config file ubuntu/debian style.

    372     new-kernel-pkg did not specify --grub when it called grubby to
    373     update the
    374     kernel entry with an initrd. Grubby would then try to probe what
    375     to
    376     do and
    377     would give preference to grub2 and thus leave an incomplete grub
    378     entry.
    379    
    380     new-kernel-pkg did also not specify the grub config file
    381     explicitly
    382     to
    383     grubby as it do for the grub2 config file. That could perhaps in
    384     some
    385     situations cause grubby to do something else than new-kernel-pkg
    386     expected.
    387    
    388     Now --grub -c $grubConfig is specified explicitly in all cases.

    404    
    405     "grub2Config", not "grub2Cfg".

    408 niro 1700 * [r1699] VERSION:

    410     * [r1698] test.sh, test/grub2.1[ADD], test/grub2.2[ADD],
    411     test/results/add/g2-1.1[ADD], test/results/add/g2-1.2[ADD],
    412     test/results/add/g2-1.3[ADD], test/results/add/g2-1.4[ADD]:
    413     Add some limited test cases for grub2.
    414     * [r1697] new-kernel-pkg:
    415     Update grub2 support to new-kernel-pkg
    416    
    417     This uses grubby for grub2 on efi and non-efi machines.

    420    
    421     * [r1696] grubby.c:
    422     Add grub2.cfg support to grubby.
    423     * [r1695] Makefile:
    424     Add -ggdb
    425     * [r1694] Makefile, grubby.c:
    426     Tweak some make options.
    427    
    428     Some functions are only used in dbgPrintf() arguments. As such,
    429     errors/warnings on unused functions need to be disabled.
    430    
    431     Also, use -std=gnu99.
    432    
    433     Also, add a debug target.
    434     * [r1693] grubby.c:
    435     Rename entrySeparator to entryStart.
    436    
    437     Since we're actually using it to detect the start of an entry
    438     (and
    439     specifically not the end), name this slightly better.
    440     * [r1692] grubby.c:
    441     Convert configFileInfo structs to C99-style initializers.
    442    
    443     Get rid of the old initializers where struct names were commends,
    444     in
    445     favor of C99-style assignment, so new fields can be put at
    446     logical
    447     places without having to change the whole file.
    448     * [r1691] new-kernel-pkg, uboot[ADD]:
    449     Add uboot support for ARM (#712199)
