Subject: How to have dracut conditionally add different kernel modules for different kernels?
Date: Fri, 10 Apr 2015 12:11:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1428693113.1734218.251850073.54517680@webmail.messagingengine.com> (raw)
The distro I use, opensuse, has switched to using dracut for initrd creation.
Prior to dracut usage, kernel-flavor-specific loading -- particularly for the case of Xen -- could be defined in
/etc/sysconfig/kernel
...
INITRD_MODULES="processor thermal ahci fan jbd ext3 edd"
DOMU_INITRD_MODULES="xennet xenblk"
...
On 'old' mkinitrd, if both -xen and non-xen kernels were installed, initrd's were created for each. In the xen case the modules defined in "DOMU_INITRD_MODULES" were conditionally added to the initrd-xen.
Since the switch to dracut, module config/loading is defined in dracut.conf & dracut.d/*conf
But the
add_drivers+=" ... "
is apparently added for all kernels.
What's the right way to add kernel-specific modules in dracut, so that for example the xen mods are ONLY added in the xen case?
