splitsep() would drop escapes from its inputs. For example: splitsep ':' 'first:middle:\e\s\c\a\p\e\d' a b c gave a='first', b='middle', c='escaped'. Even worse: splitsep ':' '\e\s\c\a\p\e\d:middle:last' a b c gave a='escaped', b='escaped', c='escaped:middle:last'. This fixes the quoting so both calls return the values you'd expect (e.g. 'first', 'middle', '\e\s\c\a\p\e\d'). --- modules.d/99base/dracut-lib.sh | 6 +++--- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/modules.d/99base/dracut-lib.sh b/modules.d/99base/dracut-lib.sh index 381b4dd..60b4cb1 100755 --- a/modules.d/99base/dracut-lib.sh +++ b/modules.d/99base/dracut-lib.sh @@ -271,12 +271,12 @@ splitsep() { while [ -n "$str" -a "$#" -gt 1 ]; do tmp="${str%%$sep*}" - eval "$1=${tmp}" - str="${str#$tmp}" + eval "$1='${tmp}'" + str="${str#"$tmp"}" str="${str#$sep}" shift done - [ -n "$str" -a -n "$1" ] && eval "$1=$str" + [ -n "$str" -a -n "$1" ] && eval "$1='$str'" debug_on return 0 } -- 1.7.11.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe initramfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
