similar to: [PATCH] option parsing in kinit/kinit.c get_arg()

There's an "if" statement in kinit.c:get_arg() that is too restrictive and prevents args from having arguments - which causes all get_arg() calls to fail: --- klibc-0.194/kinit/kinit.c.orig 2005-01-05 01:34:50.680645456 -0700 +++ klibc-0.194/kinit/kinit.c 2005-01-05 01:38:30.740191320 -0700 @@ -168,7 +168,7 @@ for (i = 1; i < argc; i++) { if (argv[i] &&

A patch for a few more hiccups and trivialities in kinit.c: * The check_path() calls check for "/root" and "/old_root" - I believe that should be "/root" and "/root/old_root". * chdir("/") is recommended after pivot_root() * init_argv[0] isn't set properly to the basename pointed to by char *s - this fix also eliminates six lines of

This patch adds the ability to mount filesystems via an embedded fstab or via the kernel command line. When using the kernel command-line, the following format is required: 'kinit_mount=<fs_name>;<fs_dir>;<fs_type>;<fs_opts>' Multiple mount options can be specified; they are evaluated in the order they appear in the command-line.

Hello all, I experienced some problems with "kinit". It had problems to determine my root device (/dev/hda3) and to create /dev/root with the appropriate major and minor device number. I don't use udev or devfs on this system so far. The patch I wrote to solve it is attached to this email. I would like to extend "kinit" a bit: * Removing the pivot_root stuff and

kinit/nfsmount.c:mount_nfs_root() should use the bootpath specified by bootp/dhcp. If the "nfsroot" option is specified then it overrides the boot server bootpath and a message indicating the override is printed. --- klibc-0.194/kinit/nfsroot.c.orig 2005-01-05 04:13:47.043897880 -0700 +++ klibc-0.194/kinit/nfsroot.c 2005-01-05 04:13:09.316633296 -0700 @@ -66,34 +66,21 @@ const int

This patch series allows user-specified mount commands to be sent in via kernel command line ("kinit_mount=...") or via an embedded /etc/fstab file. The first patch is a cleanup of a patch sent last November by San Mehat (http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/EazJNBMORV2U7E0coh5h); the next two are small improvements or bug fixes.

Hi, The following patch is against 3.36. It lets the width-modifier to the %s conversion specifier restrict the length of the formatted string as well as expand it. In addition, it adds the strnlen function, which only exists as a prototype today. -- Arne. --- syslinux-3.36/com32/lib/Makefile.orig 2007-02-10 21:47:07.000000000 +0100 +++ syslinux-3.36/com32/lib/Makefile 2007-04-12

Hi all, I recently made a patch to openssh 4.1p1 to allow it to use the in-kernel key management provided by 2.6.12 or later Linux kernels. I've attached the patch (which is still only a proof-of-concept, for instance its very verbose right now) to this mail. Now, my question is, is this a completely insane idea and would (a later version of) the patch have a chance of making it into the

If rsync is called with -4 or -6, that option is currently ignored when ssh is used as the transport. The attached patch is a stab at passing the option on to the ssh process. It checks that the remote shell program is something that looks like ssh. Perhaps that could be done cleaner...

In addition, I added a field to the <listen-socket> section of the config file called <default-mount> which specifies a default file in the case that one isn't specified (it

This patch adds the ability to kinit to allow the dropping of POSIX capabilities. kinit is modified by this change, such that it understands the new kernel command line "drop_capabilities=" that specifies a comma separated list of capability names that should be dropped before switching over to the next init in the boot strap (typically on the root disk).

I've just implemented a generalization of R's text connections, to also support reading/writing raw binary data. There is very little new code to speak of. For input connections, I wrote code to populate the old text connection buffer from a raw vector, and provided a new raw_read() method. For output connections, I wrote a raw_write() to append to a raw vector. On input, the mode
