Hi,
I am looking into adding boot from external metadata, mdraid, support
to dracut. As I looked into how it specifies modules I realized that
it needs a /lib/modules directory that has been processed by this
snippet from the Fedora kernel.spec:
find $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/lib/modules/$KernelVer -name "*.ko" -type f >modnames
# mark modules executable so that strip-to-file can strip them
xargs --no-run-if-empty chmod u+x < modnames
# Generate a list of modules for block and networking.
fgrep /drivers/ modnames | xargs --no-run-if-empty nm -upA |
sed -n 's,^.*/\([^/]*\.ko\): *U \(.*\)$,\1 \2,p' > drivers.undef
collect_modules_list()
{
sed -r -n -e "s/^([^ ]+) \\.?($2)\$/\\1/p" drivers.undef |
LC_ALL=C sort -u > $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/lib/modules/$KernelVer/modules.$1
}
collect_modules_list networking \
'register_netdev|ieee80211_register_hw|usbnet_probe'
collect_modules_list block \
'ata_scsi_ioctl|scsi_add_host|blk_init_queue|register_mtd_blktrans|scsi_esp_register'
Is this something that should be added to dracut, or upstreamed into Kbuild?
Thanks,
Dan
