dracut-052
==========

#### Features

- **dracut:**
  - allow overriding the systemctl command for sysroot with `$SYSTEMCTL` for cross compilation
  - add additional global variables

     Variables like `dbusconfdir` or `systemdnetwork` are now exported
     to the individual modules as global variables. If they are not set
     in the distribution dracut config files, they are set via `pkg-config`

  - A `--no-uefi` option as been added to the CLI options to disable a default `uefi=yes`
    set by a configuration file.

- **kernel-modules:**  add modules from `drivers/memory` for arm
- **network-legacy:**  send dhcp in parallel on all devices via the `single-dhcp` option
- **dbus:**  introduce a meta module for dbus
- **dbus-broker:**  introduce the dbus-broker module
- **dbus-daemon:**  introduce the dbus-daemon module
- **systemd-ask-password:**  introduce the systemd-ask-password module
- **systemd-coredump:**  introduce the systemd-coredump module
- **systemd-modules-load:**  introduce the systemd-modules-load module
- **systemd-repart:**  introduce the systemd-repart module
- **systemd-sysctl:**  introduce the systemd-sysctl module
- **systemd-sysusers:** introduce the systemd-sysuser module

#### Bug Fixes

-   first round of shellcheck for all shell scripts
-   revise all module checks to not error out about missing dependencies
-   use the top-level `/efi` path to address the EFI partition
-   correct the squash quirk
-   use `find_binary` instead of other methods, because `find_binary` honors `dracutsysrootdir`
-   quote globbing in module-setup.sh for `inst_multiple`
-   move ldconfig after library workaround
-   do not set cmdline for uefi images unless asked
- **dracut:**  don't override `PATH`, if `dracutsysrootdir` is set
- **dracut-functions.sh:**  check kernel config from `dracutsysrootdir`
- **dracut-init.sh:**  make inst_libdir_file work with `dracutsysrootdir` set
- **dracut-install:**  allow globbing for multiple sources
- **06dbus:**
  -  do not hardcode path to dbus utils
  -  do not hardcode path to systemd unit
- **uefi**  use efivars fs over the deprecated sysfs entries
- **keyring**  adding shared keyring mode to systemd unit `dracut-pre-pivot.service`
- **35network-manager:**  avoid restarting NetworkManager
- **90kernel-modules:**  install generic crypto modules with hostonly unset
- **99squash:**  use kernel config instead of modprobe to check modules
- **dbus-daemon:**  use uid/gid from sysroot if `dracutsysrootdir` is set
- **kernel-modules:**  add reset controllers for arm
- **kernel-network-modules:**  also install modules from mdio subdirectory
- **mdraid:**
  -  remove the `offroot` option (long deprecated)
  -  add the grow continue service `mdadm-grow-continue`
- **network-legacy:**  silent the check for dhcp leaseinfo
- **network-manager:**  allow override network manager version
- **plymouth:**  install binaries with dependencies
- **shutdown:**  add timeout to umount calls
- **watchdog:**  fix dependencies in `module-setup.sh`
