    23     -version 8.9
    24     * [r1770] new-kernel-pkg:

    30    
    31 niro 1772 * [r1757] new-kernel-pkg:
    32     -let the menuentries match our grub-cosmetic patch
    33     * [r1756] new-kernel-pkg:
    34     -fix a infinite loop caused by dropping the path prefix of
    35     mkinitrd
    36     * [r1754] ChangeLog:
    37     updated ChangeLog
    38 niro 1754 * [r1753] VERSION:
    39     -version 8.8_20120218
    40     * [r1752] new-kernel-pkg:
    41     new-kernel-pkg fails to find U-Boot.
    42    
    43     new-kernel-pkg fails to find U-Boot if the boot directory is not
    44     on a
    45     separate partition.
    46    
    47     This only affects the U-Boot image creation section of the
    48     new-kernel-pkg
    49     script, for ARM based systems. My initial changes were only
    50     tested on
    51     specific ARM-OMAP systems that required a specific U-Boot
    52     partition.
    53     Testing
    54     on additional systems (ARM-Tegra) revealed this incorrect
    55     assumption.
    56    
    57     The attached patch includes the following:
    58    
    59     - Cosmetic: Correction - change uBoot to U-Boot in comments.
    60     - Additions:
    61     -- Recognize ARCH == armv7hl
    62     -- Make U-Boot load/execute address variable (based on machine)
    63     -- Bug: Correct invalid assumption that the U-Boot directory
    64     would
    65     always
    66     be on a separate partition.
    67     * [r1751] grubby.c:
    68     Try to display title when printing information with '--info'
    69    
    70     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    71     * [r1750] grubby.c:
    72     Fix endswith() to correctly test its input for validity.
    73     * [r1749] installkernel, new-kernel-pkg:
    74     Fix hard coded paths so kernel's "make install" will DTRT.
    75     * [r1748] grubby.c:
    76     Implement support for "default saved" for grub2
    77    
    78     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    79     * [r1747] grubby.c:
    80     Include prefix when printing kernel information
    81    
    82     When running grubby with '--info=', the initrd is displayed with
    83     the
    84     boot prefix, so, for correctness, also include it in the kernel
    85     line.
    86    
    87     Signed-off-by: Cleber Rosa <crosa@redhat.com>
    88     * [r1746] grubby.c:
    89     Refactor grub2 title extraction, making it a function
    90    
    91     '--default-title' now uses that functions, but others such as
    92     '--info'
    93     could, IMHO, also display the title and thus, use the refactored
    94     function.

    97     * [r1745] grubby.c:
    98     Include a / when one is missing in paths (#769641)
    99     * [r1743] ChangeLog:
    100     updated ChangeLog
    101 niro 1743 * [r1742] VERSION:
    102     -version 8.8
    103     * [r1741] test.sh:
    104     Fix new test case to not care if /boot is a mountpoint...
    105     * [r1739] ChangeLog:
    106     updated ChangeLog
    107 niro 1739 * [r1738] VERSION:
    108     -version 8.7
    109     * [r1737] test.sh, test/results/debug[ADD],
    110     test/results/debug/g2.1[ADD], test/results/debug/g2.1.2[ADD]:
    111     Add a test case for --debug.
    112    
    113     Make sure --debug works as expected in both successful and failed
    114     attempts.
    115     * [r1736] grubby.8, grubby.c:
    116     grubby: Add --debug option to annotate "suitable template"
    117     failures
    118    
    119     Today, when grubby fails with "no suitable template found" the
    120     user
    121     has no idea why that might be. These can fail for several
    122     reasons.
    123     So add a --debug option to print out the line in grubby.c where
    124     it
    125     failed, a text message describing the failure, and a copy of the
    126     bootloader entry that failed, to aid investigation.

    132     -version 8.6
    133     * [r1732] test/results/remove/g2-1.4:
    134     Fix another test broken by 4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a
    135     * [r1730] ChangeLog:
    136     updated ChangeLog
    137 niro 1730 * [r1729] VERSION:
    138     -version 8.5
    139     * [r1728] new-kernel-pkg:
    140     Don't hardcode dracut path. (#768645)
    141    
    142     dracut moved from /sbin to /usr/bin, so fix that, but also it's
    143     pointless to hardcode what's in PATH.
    144     * [r1727] grubby.c, test.sh, test/results/remove/g2-1.4[ADD]:
    145     Use dummy entries for text following kernel entries so it is
    146     preserved
    147     (#744717)
    148    
    149     Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson <awilliam@redhat.com>
    150     * [r1726] test/results/defaulttitle/g2.1:
    151     Fix up one test result for changes from
    152     4bb88f93e6c7cf432e354a164fce8743794a84a5
    153     * [r1724] ChangeLog:
    154     updated ChangeLog
    155 niro 1724 * [r1723] VERSION:
    156     -version 8.4
    157     * [r1722] grubby.c, test/grub2.1, test/results/add/g2-1.1,
    158     test/results/add/g2-1.2, test/results/add/g2-1.3:
    159     Update "echo 'Loading..." messages to the new kernel version
    160    
    161     grub2-mkconfig will create lines like:
    162     echo 'Loading Linux 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64
    163     ...'
    164     - depending on the content of /etc/default/grub.
    165    
    166     grubby would recognize these lines and replace them with lines
    167     with the
    168     right
    169     version number such as:
    170     echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64)'
    171    
    172     these lines were however not recognized by grubby and would not
    173     be
    174     updated on
    175     next kernel update when this entry would be used as template.
    176    
    177     With this patch grubby will no longer look for a specific title
    178     but
    179     patch any
    180     "echo 'Loading" line immediately before the kernel line.

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

    252     Make grubby to recognize Ubuntu's spin of Grub2
    253    
    254     We are looking to use grubby as a bootloader entries
    255     manager for the autotest project:
    256    
    257     http://autotest.kernel.org/
    258    
    259     The project aims to cover more distros than just
    260     red hat based ones, so this small patch fixes the
    261     tool under Ubuntu. They have chosen to name grub2
    262     grub, in all directory references. Also, they don't
    263     make symlinks of grub config files on /etc. So,
    264     adapt the code to take into consideration this
    265     behavior.
    266    
    267     Changes from v1:
    268     * Removed nested set of {}
    269     * Made the return in case /etc/grub.d is found
    270     indented
    271     * Moved the dbgPrint("not found\n") statement
    272     before the last return. Also, put a new
    273     dbgPrint("found\n") if we've found a suitable
    274     grub2 config file ubuntu/debian style.

    281     * [r1710] new-kernel-pkg:
    282     Fix new-kernel-pkg invocation of grubby for grub (bz 725185)
    283    
    284     new-kernel-pkg did not specify --grub when it called grubby to
    285     update the
    286     kernel entry with an initrd. Grubby would then try to probe what
    287     to
    288     do and
    289     would give preference to grub2 and thus leave an incomplete grub
    290     entry.
    291    
    292     new-kernel-pkg did also not specify the grub config file
    293     explicitly
    294     to
    295     grubby as it do for the grub2 config file. That could perhaps in
    296     some
    297     situations cause grubby to do something else than new-kernel-pkg
    298     expected.
    299    
    300     Now --grub -c $grubConfig is specified explicitly in all cases.

    337     * [r1694] Makefile, grubby.c:
    338     Tweak some make options.
    339    
    340     Some functions are only used in dbgPrintf() arguments. As such,
    341     errors/warnings on unused functions need to be disabled.
    342    
    343     Also, use -std=gnu99.
    344    
    345     Also, add a debug target.
    346     * [r1693] grubby.c:
    347     Rename entrySeparator to entryStart.
    348    
    349     Since we're actually using it to detect the start of an entry
    350     (and
    351     specifically not the end), name this slightly better.
    352     * [r1692] grubby.c:
    353     Convert configFileInfo structs to C99-style initializers.
    354    
    355     Get rid of the old initializers where struct names were commends,
    356     in
    357     favor of C99-style assignment, so new fields can be put at
    358     logical
    359     places without having to change the whole file.
