    118    
    119     * [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     * [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:
    156      Try to display title when printing information with '--info'
    157      
    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.
    174      
    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.
    183      
    184      Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    185     * [r1745] grubby.c:
    186      Include a / when one is missing in paths (#769641)
    187     * [r1743] ChangeLog:
    188      updated ChangeLog
    189     * [r1742] VERSION:
    190      -version 8.8
    191     * [r1741] test.sh:
    192      Fix new test case to not care if /boot is a mountpoint...
    193     * [r1739] ChangeLog:
    194      updated ChangeLog
    195     * [r1738] VERSION:
    196      -version 8.7
    197     * [r1737] test.sh, test/results/debug[ADD],
    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.

    219     * [r1733] VERSION:
    220      -version 8.6
    221     * [r1732] test/results/remove/g2-1.4:
    222      Fix another test broken by 4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a
    223     * [r1730] ChangeLog:
    224      updated ChangeLog
    225     * [r1729] VERSION:
    226      -version 8.5
    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:
    242      updated ChangeLog
    243     * [r1723] VERSION:
    244      -version 8.4
    245     * [r1722] grubby.c, test/grub2.1, test/results/add/g2-1.1,
    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.

    339     * [r1714] grubby.c:
    340      Make grubby to recognize Ubuntu's spin of Grub2
    341      
    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.

    369     * [r1710] new-kernel-pkg:
    370      Fix new-kernel-pkg invocation of grubby for grub (bz 725185)
    371      
    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.
