similar to: [PATCH 1/3] klibc: Add scandir() and alphasort() support.

This patchset applies to klibc mainline. This patchset introduces the ability to kinit to execute scripts or executable files present in in the initramfs before switching over to the root filesystem. It is implemented by first implementing scandir() and alphasort() as present in POSIX.1-2008 in klibc itself, and then using that as the basis for iterating and executing files via a run_scripts()

This patchset applies to klibc mainline. This patchset introduces the ability to kinit to execute scripts or executable files present in in the initramfs before switching over to the root filesystem. This functionality is implemented in a newly introduced run_parts() call, which calls scandir() to iterate through files which in then executes in sequence. run_parts() is also available as a

Hello, These are implementations of strverscmp, scandir, alphasort and versionsort, and some test cases for them. I know these aren't in POSIX, but they're useful, nonetheless, and someone else might be interested in them.

Hi, I noticed that brctl (or more accurately, libbridge) is using the wrong path when doing various lookups in sysfs: e.g. /sys/class/net/brXXX/stp_state when it should use /sys/class/net/brXXX/bridge/stp_state. This doesn't cause any problems on most systems as it falls back to the ioctl when the sysfs attempt fails; however the ioctl method is apparently deprecated. I believe the

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). When processing capabilities

This patchset applies to klibc mainline. As is it will probably collide with Maximilian's recent patch to rename run-init to switch_root posted last week. To boot an untrusted environment with certain capabilities locked out, we'd like to be able to drop the capabilities up front from early userspace, before we actually transition onto the root volume. This patchset implements this by

Hi Steven, The following patch set provides a feature which can read trace data of a guest using virtio-trace (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/9/210) for a recorder function of trace-cmd. This patch set depends on the trace-agent running on a guest in the virtio-trace system. To translate raw data of a guest to text data on a host, information of debugfs in the guest is also needed on the host. In

Following mail advice from maximilian attems (thanks). The following patch changes 2 parts of kinit's command line parameter handling. 1) Parse command line parameters passed to kinit *before* /proc/cmdline, in order to allow overrides 2) Pass this resultant command line to the init program, rather than forcing the kinit caller to pass all /proc/cmdline parameters to the kinit call.

Building on the work in ff0a614bd724f6c4c6a5014a9955dc1bc028f336, this moves the capability code down into the run-init library, so that run-init can use it as well, via the new "-d" flag.

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

Would a patch to ogg123 for using scandir(3) and alphasort(3) instead of opendir(3) and readdir(3) in playlist_append_directory() be accepted, or are those not sufficiently portable? On Linux, _SVID_SOURCE or _BSD_SOURCE is required to use them. This shouldn't be hard to implement and I'd like very much to have directories added to the playlist in sorted order.

Why does ZFS report such small directory sizes?

initramfs-tools wants to validate the real init program before running it, as there is no way out once it has exec'd run-init. This is complicated by the increasing use of symlinks for /sbin/init and for /sbin itself. We can't simply resolve them with 'readlink -f' because any absolute symlinks will be resolved using the wrong root. Add a dry-run mode (-n option) to run-init

Hello, This is the little basic program I used to test xattrs. First thing I did was something like this cd /mnt/btrfs-test for i in $(seq 0 100000); do touch file_$i; done and then run time ./xattr-test /mnt/btrfs 0 time ./xattr-test /mnt/btrfs 1 time ./xattr-test /mnt/btrfs 2 the 0 test creates 100 xattrs for every file in the directory. the 1 test just does a listxattr for every file in

Hello list, there is no `versionsort' implementation in the dirent.h on standard installation of freebsd 6.x. I have replaced `versionsort' with `alphasort' in screenshot.c, but I don't know whether that fix will cause crash screenshot plugin since I have not yet ran the latest git xgl/compiz/mesa on my freebsd. -- Best regards, Denis

For our platforms, we'd like to embed several different userland scripts / programs that are executed before we have mounted the root filesystem as part of the initramfs payload. Specifically, I'd like to have multiple scripts executed before do_mounts(), so I coded up this simple do_initscripts function that executes all executables found in /etc/init.d in alphabetically sorted order. I

The kernel header guard to ensure that headers aren't included from userland moved in commit 69c8f52b. This causes the following message to be emitted when building klibc (which is designed to use kernel headers explicitly): /usr/local/src/git/linux-2.6//include/linux/types.h:13:2: warning: #warning "Attempt to use kernel headers from user space, see
