    3 niro 1754 * [r1753] VERSION:
    4     -version 8.8_20120218
    5     * [r1752] new-kernel-pkg:
    6     new-kernel-pkg fails to find U-Boot.
    7    
    8     new-kernel-pkg fails to find U-Boot if the boot directory is not
    9     on a
    10     separate partition.
    11    
    12     This only affects the U-Boot image creation section of the
    13     new-kernel-pkg
    14     script, for ARM based systems. My initial changes were only
    15     tested on
    16     specific ARM-OMAP systems that required a specific U-Boot
    17     partition.
    18     Testing
    19     on additional systems (ARM-Tegra) revealed this incorrect
    20     assumption.
    21    
    22     The attached patch includes the following:
    23    
    24     - Cosmetic: Correction - change uBoot to U-Boot in comments.
    25     - Additions:
    26     -- Recognize ARCH == armv7hl
    27     -- Make U-Boot load/execute address variable (based on machine)
    28     -- Bug: Correct invalid assumption that the U-Boot directory
    29     would
    30     always
    31     be on a separate partition.
    32     * [r1751] grubby.c:
    33     Try to display title when printing information with '--info'
    34    
    35     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    36     * [r1750] grubby.c:
    37     Fix endswith() to correctly test its input for validity.
    38     * [r1749] installkernel, new-kernel-pkg:
    39     Fix hard coded paths so kernel's "make install" will DTRT.
    40     * [r1748] grubby.c:
    41     Implement support for "default saved" for grub2
    42    
    43     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    44     * [r1747] grubby.c:
    45     Include prefix when printing kernel information
    46    
    47     When running grubby with '--info=', the initrd is displayed with
    48     the
    49     boot prefix, so, for correctness, also include it in the kernel
    50     line.
    51    
    52     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    53     * [r1746] grubby.c:
    54     Refactor grub2 title extraction, making it a function
    55    
    56     '--default-title' now uses that functions, but others such as
    57     '--info'
    58     could, IMHO, also display the title and thus, use the refactored
    59     function.

    62     * [r1745] grubby.c:
    63     Include a / when one is missing in paths (#769641)
    64     * [r1743] ChangeLog:
    65     updated ChangeLog
    66 niro 1743 * [r1742] VERSION:
    67     -version 8.8
    68     * [r1741] test.sh:
    69     Fix new test case to not care if /boot is a mountpoint...
    70     * [r1739] ChangeLog:
    71     updated ChangeLog
    72 niro 1739 * [r1738] VERSION:
    73     -version 8.7
    74     * [r1737] test.sh, test/results/debug[ADD],
    75     test/results/debug/g2.1[ADD], test/results/debug/g2.1.2[ADD]:
    76     Add a test case for --debug.
    77    
    78     Make sure --debug works as expected in both successful and failed
    79     attempts.
    80     * [r1736] grubby.8, grubby.c:
    81     grubby: Add --debug option to annotate "suitable template"
    82     failures
    83    
    84     Today, when grubby fails with "no suitable template found" the
    85     user
    86     has no idea why that might be. These can fail for several
    87     reasons.
    88     So add a --debug option to print out the line in grubby.c where
    89     it
    90     failed, a text message describing the failure, and a copy of the
    91     bootloader entry that failed, to aid investigation.

    97     -version 8.6
    98     * [r1732] test/results/remove/g2-1.4:
    99     Fix another test broken by 4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a
    100     * [r1730] ChangeLog:
    101     updated ChangeLog
    102 niro 1730 * [r1729] VERSION:
    103     -version 8.5
    104     * [r1728] new-kernel-pkg:
    105     Don't hardcode dracut path. (#768645)
    106    
    107     dracut moved from /sbin to /usr/bin, so fix that, but also it's
    108     pointless to hardcode what's in PATH.
    109     * [r1727] grubby.c, test.sh, test/results/remove/g2-1.4[ADD]:
    110     Use dummy entries for text following kernel entries so it is
    111     preserved
    112     (#744717)
    113    
    114     Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson <awilliam@redhat.com>
    115     * [r1726] test/results/defaulttitle/g2.1:
    116     Fix up one test result for changes from
    117     4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a84a5
    118     * [r1724] ChangeLog:
    119     updated ChangeLog
    120 niro 1724 * [r1723] VERSION:
    121     -version 8.4
    122     * [r1722] grubby.c, test/grub2.1, test/results/add/g2-1.1,
    123     test/results/add/g2-1.2, test/results/add/g2-1.3:
    124     Update "echo 'Loading..." messages to the new kernel version
    125    
    126     grub2-mkconfig will create lines like:
    127     echo 'Loading Linux 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64
    128     ...'
    129     - depending on the content of /etc/default/grub.
    130    
    131     grubby would recognize these lines and replace them with lines
    132     with the
    133     right
    134     version number such as:
    135     echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64)'
    136    
    137     these lines were however not recognized by grubby and would not
    138     be
    139     updated on
    140     next kernel update when this entry would be used as template.
    141    
    142     With this patch grubby will no longer look for a specific title
    143     but
    144     patch any
    145     "echo 'Loading" line immediately before the kernel line.

    211     Since debian and Ubuntu don't symlink /boot/grub/menu.lst

    213     this original location as well.

    218    
    219     We are looking to use grubby as a bootloader entries
    220     manager for the autotest project:
    221    
    222     http://autotest.kernel.org/
    223    
    224     The project aims to cover more distros than just
    225     red hat based ones, so this small patch fixes the
    226     tool under Ubuntu. They have chosen to name grub2
    227     grub, in all directory references. Also, they don't
    228     make symlinks of grub config files on /etc. So,
    229     adapt the code to take into consideration this
    230     behavior.
    231    
    232     Changes from v1:
    233     * Removed nested set of {}
    234     * Made the return in case /etc/grub.d is found
    235     indented
    236     * Moved the dbgPrint("not found\n") statement
    237     before the last return. Also, put a new
    238     dbgPrint("found\n") if we've found a suitable
    239     grub2 config file ubuntu/debian style.

    246     * [r1710] new-kernel-pkg:
    247     Fix new-kernel-pkg invocation of grubby for grub (bz 725185)
    248    
    249     new-kernel-pkg did not specify --grub when it called grubby to
    250     update the
    251     kernel entry with an initrd. Grubby would then try to probe what
    252     to
    253     do and
    254     would give preference to grub2 and thus leave an incomplete grub
    255     entry.
    256    
    257     new-kernel-pkg did also not specify the grub config file
    258     explicitly
    259     to
    260     grubby as it do for the grub2 config file. That could perhaps in
    261     some
    262     situations cause grubby to do something else than new-kernel-pkg
    263     expected.
    264    
    265     Now --grub -c $grubConfig is specified explicitly in all cases.

    300     * [r1695] Makefile:
    301     Add -ggdb
    302     * [r1694] Makefile, grubby.c:
    303     Tweak some make options.
    304    
    305     Some functions are only used in dbgPrintf() arguments. As such,
    306     errors/warnings on unused functions need to be disabled.
    307    
    308     Also, use -std=gnu99.
    309    
    310     Also, add a debug target.
    311     * [r1693] grubby.c:
    312     Rename entrySeparator to entryStart.
    313    
    314     Since we're actually using it to detect the start of an entry
    315     (and
    316     specifically not the end), name this slightly better.
    317     * [r1692] grubby.c:
    318     Convert configFileInfo structs to C99-style initializers.
    319    
    320     Get rid of the old initializers where struct names were commends,
    321     in
    322     favor of C99-style assignment, so new fields can be put at
    323     logical
    324     places without having to change the whole file.
    325     * [r1691] new-kernel-pkg, uboot[ADD]:
    326     Add uboot support for ARM (#712199)
