    3     * [r1738] VERSION:
    4      -version 8.7
    5     * [r1737] test.sh, test/results/debug[ADD],
    6      test/results/debug/g2.1[ADD], test/results/debug/g2.1.2[ADD]:
    7      Add a test case for --debug.
    8      
    9      Make sure --debug works as expected in both successful and failed
    10      attempts.
    11     * [r1736] grubby.8, grubby.c:
    12      grubby: Add --debug option to annotate "suitable template"
    13      failures
    14      
    15      Today, when grubby fails with "no suitable template found" the
    16      user
    17      has no idea why that might be. These can fail for several
    18      reasons.
    19      So add a --debug option to print out the line in grubby.c where
    20      it
    21      failed, a text message describing the failure, and a copy of the
    22      bootloader entry that failed, to aid investigation.

    25     * [r1734] ChangeLog:
    26      updated ChangeLog
    27     * [r1733] VERSION:
    28      -version 8.6
    29     * [r1732] test/results/remove/g2-1.4:
    30      Fix another test broken by 4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a
    31     * [r1730] ChangeLog:
    32      updated ChangeLog
    33     * [r1729] VERSION:
    34      -version 8.5
    35     * [r1728] new-kernel-pkg:
    36      Don't hardcode dracut path. (#768645)
    37      
    38      dracut moved from /sbin to /usr/bin, so fix that, but also it's
    39      pointless to hardcode what's in PATH.
    40     * [r1727] grubby.c, test.sh, test/results/remove/g2-1.4[ADD]:
    41      Use dummy entries for text following kernel entries so it is
    42      preserved
    43      (#744717)
    44      
    45      Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson <awilliam@redhat.com>
    46     * [r1726] test/results/defaulttitle/g2.1:
    47      Fix up one test result for changes from
    48      4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a84a5
    49     * [r1724] ChangeLog:
    50      updated ChangeLog
    51     * [r1723] VERSION:
    52      -version 8.4
    53     * [r1722] grubby.c, test/grub2.1, test/results/add/g2-1.1,
    54      test/results/add/g2-1.2, test/results/add/g2-1.3:
    55      Update "echo 'Loading..." messages to the new kernel version
    56      
    57      grub2-mkconfig will create lines like:
    58      echo 'Loading Linux 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64
    59      ...'
    60      - depending on the content of /etc/default/grub.
    61      
    62      grubby would recognize these lines and replace them with lines
    63      with the
    64      right
    65      version number such as:
    66      echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64)'
    67      
    68      these lines were however not recognized by grubby and would not
    69      be
    70      updated on
    71      next kernel update when this entry would be used as template.
    72      
    73      With this patch grubby will no longer look for a specific title
    74      but
    75      patch any
    76      "echo 'Loading" line immediately before the kernel line.

    109     * [r1719] test.sh:
    110      test.sh: add feature for testing the output of a grubby command
    111      
    112      Instead of comparing the configuration file that gets generated
    113      by
    114      a grubby command

    117     * [r1718] grubby.c:
    118      GRUB: Fix detection by increasing offset when comparing stage1 to
    119      MBR
    120      
    121      A couple of instructions of grub's stage1 get modified when
    122      copied to
    123      the
    124      MBR (replaced by NOOPs). Check for this condition, and skip these
    125      bytes
    126      while compare stage1 and MBR.

    130      Don't crash if grubConfig not found.
    131      
    132      I trigger this crash on my system. It has syslinux and no grub.

    138      Signed-off-by: Christopher Li <kernel@chrisli.org>
    139     * [r1715] grubby.c:
    140      Look for other possible grub config files
    141      
    142      Since debian and Ubuntu don't symlink /boot/grub/menu.lst
    143      to /etc/grub.conf, make it possible to look them over on
    144      this original location as well.

    147     * [r1714] grubby.c:
    148      Make grubby to recognize Ubuntu's spin of Grub2
    149      
    150      We are looking to use grubby as a bootloader entries
    151      manager for the autotest project:
    152      
    153      http://autotest.kernel.org/
    154      
    155      The project aims to cover more distros than just
    156      red hat based ones, so this small patch fixes the
    157      tool under Ubuntu. They have chosen to name grub2
    158      grub, in all directory references. Also, they don't
    159      make symlinks of grub config files on /etc. So,
    160      adapt the code to take into consideration this
    161      behavior.
    162      
    163      Changes from v1:
    164      * Removed nested set of {}
    165      * Made the return in case /etc/grub.d is found
    166      indented
    167      * Moved the dbgPrint("not found\n") statement
    168      before the last return. Also, put a new
    169      dbgPrint("found\n") if we've found a suitable
    170      grub2 config file ubuntu/debian style.

    175     * [r1711] VERSION:
    176      -version 8.3
    177     * [r1710] new-kernel-pkg:
    178      Fix new-kernel-pkg invocation of grubby for grub (bz 725185)
    179      
    180      new-kernel-pkg did not specify --grub when it called grubby to
    181      update the
    182      kernel entry with an initrd. Grubby would then try to probe what
    183      to
    184      do and
    185      would give preference to grub2 and thus leave an incomplete grub
    186      entry.
    187      
    188      new-kernel-pkg did also not specify the grub config file
    189      explicitly
    190      to
    191      grubby as it do for the grub2 config file. That could perhaps in
    192      some
    193      situations cause grubby to do something else than new-kernel-pkg
    194      expected.
    195      
    196      Now --grub -c $grubConfig is specified explicitly in all cases.
    197     * [r1708] ChangeLog:

    199     * [r1707] VERSION:

    208     * [r1703] VERSION:
    209      -version 8.1
    210     * [r1702] new-kernel-pkg:
    211      Fix a miss-spelled variable name.
    212      
    213      "grub2Config", not "grub2Cfg".
    214     * [r1700] ChangeLog:

    220      test/results/add/g2-1.3[ADD], test/results/add/g2-1.4[ADD]:
    221      Add some limited test cases for grub2.
    222     * [r1697] new-kernel-pkg:
    223      Update grub2 support to new-kernel-pkg
    224      
    225      This uses grubby for grub2 on efi and non-efi machines.

    228    
    229     * [r1696] grubby.c:
    230      Add grub2.cfg support to grubby.
    231     * [r1695] Makefile:
    232      Add -ggdb
    233     * [r1694] Makefile, grubby.c:
    234      Tweak some make options.
    235      
    236      Some functions are only used in dbgPrintf() arguments. As such,
    237      errors/warnings on unused functions need to be disabled.
    238      
    239      Also, use -std=gnu99.
    240      
    241      Also, add a debug target.
    242     * [r1693] grubby.c:
    243      Rename entrySeparator to entryStart.
    244      
    245      Since we're actually using it to detect the start of an entry
    246      (and
    247      specifically not the end), name this slightly better.
    248     * [r1692] grubby.c:
    249      Convert configFileInfo structs to C99-style initializers.
    250      
    251      Get rid of the old initializers where struct names were commends,
    252      in
    253      favor of C99-style assignment, so new fields can be put at
    254      logical
    255      places without having to change the whole file.
    256     * [r1691] new-kernel-pkg, uboot[ADD]:
    257      Add uboot support for ARM (#712199)
