[PATCH 0/6] multipath-tools: kernel module loading improvements

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Martin Wilck <mwilck@xxxxxxxx>

Continuation of my previous series with cleanup of systemd services.
This series drops the ExecStartPre directive for loading dm-multipath
in favor of a modules-load.d entry. That has the advantage to apply
also for multipath when called in udev rules, and to be added to
the initramfs automatically.

The loading of SCSI device handlers was dropped in the previous series
already. Here, too, a modules-load.d file makes more sense than
ExecStartPre. Some distributions may be served better with a softdep
on scsi_mod, but that's out of scope for upstream. Therefore the list
of device handler modules to preload is configurable.

Martin Wilck (6):
  multipath/Makefile: use $(udevrulesdir)
  multipath-tools: Makefile.inc: delete obsolete comment
  multipath-tools: install modules-load.d/multipath.conf
  multipathd.service: drop ExecStartPre for loading dm-multipath
  multipath: Makefile: modules-load.d file for SCSI device handlers
  README.md: add basic information about building multipath-tools
