From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Pratyush Anand Subject: [PATCH V3 dracut 0/3] Install kernel module for active watchdog Date: Mon, 7 Mar 2016 09:54:43 +0530 Message-ID: Return-path: Sender: initramfs-owner-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org List-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: initramfs-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org Cc: Pratyush Anand , Dave Young , Don Zickus , Harald Hoyer Changes since V2: -- Added one more patch to update rd.driver.pre with watchdog module name, so that they are loaded into kernel as early as possible. -- Removed creation of tmp/active-watchdogs. modinfo will be helpful for kexec-tools. -- Now we add modules for active watchdog in hostonly mode and modules for all watchdog in no-hostonly mode. Changes since RFC: -- Added one more patch to take care that dracut does not add watchdog hooks when systemd module is included. In that case systemd daemon will manage watchdog for kicking. -- Removed --nowdt argument. User can use -o or --omit when wathdog module is not needed. Thanks Harald for this suggestion. -- Now I also do not check for "hostonly" to add modules for active watchdog. It seems reasonable to add kernel watchdog modules whenever, dracut watchdog module has been added.
