    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)

    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.

    118 GRUB: Fix detection by increasing offset when comparing stage1 to

    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.

    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.
    145
    146 Signed-off-by: Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues <lmr@redhat.com>
    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.

    173 * [r1712] ChangeLog:
    174 updated ChangeLog
    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:
    198 updated ChangeLog
    199 * [r1707] VERSION:
    200 -version 8.2

    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:
    215 updated ChangeLog
    216 * [r1699] VERSION:
    217 -version 8.0
    218 * [r1698] test.sh, test/grub2.1[ADD], test/grub2.2[ADD],
    219 test/results/add/g2-1.1[ADD], test/results/add/g2-1.2[ADD],
    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.
    226
    227 2012-02-17 Niels Rogalla <niro@magellan-linux.de>
    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)
