Subject: Intend of hostonly-cmdline?
Date: Wed, 07 May 2014 13:12:55 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2263850.UM9clb02rz@skinner> (raw)

Hi,

I wonder for what this one is exactly for?

commit ab9457efd78ff74c654b4123956cdbd131935066
Author: Harald Hoyer <harald-H+wXaHxf7aLQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>

    Add flag to toggle hostonly cmdline storing in the initramfs
    
    --hostonly-cmdline:
        Store kernel command line arguments needed in the initramfs
    
    --no-hostonly-cmdline:
        Do not store kernel command line arguments needed in the initramfs



Wouldn't it be enough to simply add hostonly command line parameters
only in hostonly case like:
+    if [[ $hostonly == "yes" ]]; then
+        cmdline  >> "${initdir}/etc/cmdline.d/90mdraid.conf"
+        echo  >> "${initdir}/etc/cmdline.d/90mdraid.conf"
+    fi

why is a hostonly-cmdline extra parameter needed?

Thanks,

  Thomas
