Subject: [patch 3/3] Add a dracut option --device to bring up a device in initramfs
Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2012 20:35:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120817123905.353853040@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20120817123519.082687047@redhat.com

[-- Attachment #1: 0816-3-add-raw-device.patch --]
[-- Type: TEXT/PLAIN, Size: 2311 bytes --]

Kdump support dump to raw device which could be on top of complex storage
such as multipath and iscsi which are standalone dracut modules.

Add a --device option to dracut which will add the device to host_devs so
dracut can add the dependent modules automaticlly and enable them in initramfs.

--device will accept device node name as the param.
