initramfs-tools 0.133ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

initramfs-tools (0.133ubuntu1) eoan; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - debian/control: Breaks isc-dhcp-client << 4.3.3-5ubuntu14, since we're
      calling the dhclient binary in scripts/functions now.
    - Make busybox-initramfs a real runtime dependency, fixing
      kernel install failures with cryptsetup
    - support mounting of loopback devices via loop*= parameters
    - Drop hooks/keymap and associated code; console-setup takes care of
      this in Ubuntu.
    - Add a new 'fixrtc' script that tries to set the system clock forward
      based on the last mount time of the root disk; without this kludge,
      systems without a working RTC will end up in a perpetual reboot loop.
    - Set hostname at boot, for the benefit of mdadm autoassembly.
    - Allow scripts and hooks to specify OPTION=VAR, and unless VAR is set
      to something other than "n", the script will not be included.
    - Restore the framebuffer hook and script, copying KMS and other
      framebuffer drivers into the initramfs, but make them optional; you
      need to set FRAMEBUFFER=y for these to be included.
    - Add hwaddr= alias for BOOTIF= for compatibility.
    - Automatically blacklist vga16fb when vga= or video= specified on
      kernel command-line.
    - add squashfs to list of 'most' modules
    - Add vfat modules to the initramfs.
    - Add Hyper-V paravirtualised device drivers to the initramfs to allow
      booting of stock images in a Hyper-V guest.
    - ppc64el: enable PowerPC NX Crypto Coprocessor
    - Add mountroot failure support, to allow meaningful messages when no
      root device can be found.
    - resume: only resume when the partition contains a resume image
    - Add new initramfs-tools-bin package containing a binary that uses
      libudev to wait for udev to create the udev device, or wait for udev
      to finish processing if we catch it in the act, and returns the
      filesystem type as already probed by udev.
    - local_device_setup: use wait-for-root if it supports the device alias
      type
    - Incorporate rzscontrol from compcache so that we can control current
      ramzswap devices.
    - Support loading compcache from the initramfs.
    - debian/control: update Vcs-* links for Ubuntu.
    - Add support for uppercase and lowercase uuids.
    - init: Don't interpret "rootdelay" as a static sleep.
    - scripts/local: Let rootdelay determine the wait-for-root timeout.
    - Increase rootdelay to 180s on powerpc/ppc64/ppc64el
    - scripts/functions: by default, when setting up networking, use dhclient
      if we're asked to do DHCP explicitly, or if we otherwise are expected
      to do things automatically.
    - scripts/functions: make sure we can try to start all available and
      suitable interfaces if ip= isn't set when setting up the network, and
      exit as soon as we get an IP address.
    - scripts/functions: for configure_networking:
      - split out IPv6 options in its own cmdline parameter: ip6= ; always use
        dhclient in this case if the value set is anything other than 'off' or
        'none'. Furthermore, parse anything other than 'on', 'dhcp' or 'any'
        as the name of an interface.
      - rework the stop conditions so that we properly handle the ROUNDTTT
        loop, timing out after a short period of time and trying again after
        a short sleep.
      - add a 'done' parameter for both ip= and ip6= so that we can properly
        exit the ROUNDTTT loop once we know that either there is no work to
        do, or that we've achieved what we wanted (that is, to bring up IPv4,
        IPv6, or possibly both).
      - return ip=dhcp to the ipconfig use case; if set, then ipconfig will
        be run using any interface available, or the BOOTIF if it was set.
      - Do not handle ip=rarp specially (ipconfig hasn't supported it for
        some time)
      - Call dhclient in simple cases for IPv4 (this makes some small
        observable changes -- for example ip=bootp will now make a DHCP
        request too -- but nothing that seems important).
      - Do not let dhclient processes hang around past the pivot and have
        them respect the shorter timeouts ipconfig was given.
    - Only source ipv4 config in configure_networking() if it exists.
    - hook-functions, mkinitramfs, scripts/functions: support usage of dns
      after configure_networking.
    - Fix resuming a hibernate session from a swapfile
    - scripts/functions: write netplan config files to /run/netplan for
      network devices configured with configure_networking.
    - Add some autopkgtests for the network configuration processing.
    - Work out the kernel modules required to support ZFS filesystems and
      add them as necessary.
    - debian/initramfs-tools.postinst: remove orphaned old-dkms initrd files
      in /boot.
    - scripts/functions: include a new option to skip enslaved network
      devices.
    - Fix PATH to include /usr/local.
    - Add modules for nvme path components on multipath nvme.
  * Dropped changes, obsoleted in Debian:
    - Set takeover=1 in update-initramfs.
  * Dropped changes, included in Debian:
    - resume: announce resume via plymouth if available
    - Cherry-pick change from git to quiet error from rmdir on every call.
  * Dropped changes, no longer needed:
    - Retain cryptopts= compatibility option; nothing uses this variable,
      cryptsetup initramfs script does its own parsing of /proc/cmdline.
    - Retain netboot= compatibility option: unclear what used this, nothing
      uses it now.
    - Drop unused resumedelay commandline option.
    - Drop obsolete reference to usplash in the code.
  * Don't recommend pigz, which is in universe.  We continue to use gzip as
    the preferred implementation in main.
  * Drop scripts/init-top/keymap, which is also redundant with the
    console-setup implementation in Ubuntu.
  * Fix minor issues in the Ubuntu-specific code as identified by
    shellcheck.
  * Suppress shellcheck SC1010 errors, returning lots of false-positives on
    use of 'done' as a word.
  * Move our build-time tests to the dh_override_auto_test target along with
    Debian's.
  * Support roottimeout= as an alias for rootdelay= since the Ubuntu
    interpretation of rootdelay is *not* a delay and this causes
    inconsistent behavior depending on whether the kernel or an initramfs
    is interpreting it.
  * Drop usage of klibc-utils' fstype in favor of always using udev blkid;
    historical claims of relative "robustness" are no longer relevant as
    udev is used everywhere and we don't need to be dependent on klibc.
