devices
The init-install.sh and init-install-efi.sh scripts perform a check
to see which devices are available on a booted system for installation.
Recently, the way we check for these devices changed on 993bfb,
greping for devices found on /sys/block/, this change caused the installer
to fail (at least) when not finding any mmcblk devices, due to the fact
that we call sh -e to execute this script, so any command (grep)
or pipeline exiting with a non-zero status causes the whole script to exit
This patch throws in a harmless true exit status at the end of the pipeline(s)
of the grep commands to avoid the installer script from exiting, fixing the issue.

Using a copy would only make management of devices erroneous
and makes the system unstable in some scenarios as tools will
have to manipulate both files separately. A link ensures that
both files /proc/mounts and /etc/mtab will have the same
information at all times and this is how it is handled
on newer systems where there is such a need. Same is
suggested by busybox.

Some eMMC devices show special sub-devices such as mmcblk0boot0
etc. The installation script currently pick all of them up and
displays it to the user which makes some confusions because these
sub-devices are pretty small and complete installation including
rootfs won't be possible in most cases.
We simply now drop these sub-devices and only present the user
with the root of such mmc devices.

It can take a bit for USB devices to be detected, so if a USB device is
your rootfs and you don't set rootwait you will most likely get a kernel
panic. Fix this by adding rootwait to the kernel command line on
installation.

When live booting, we need to make sure the running udev processes are killed
to avoid unexepected behavior, we do this just before switching root,
once we do, a new udev process will be spawned from init and will take care

On some hardware platforms (Gigabyte, qemu), detection of USB devices
by the kernel is slow enough such that it happens only after the first
attempt to mount the rootfs. We need to keep trying for a while
(default: 5s seconds, controlled by roottimeout=<seconds>) and sleep
between each attempt (default: one second, rootdelay=<seconds>).
This change intentionally splits finding the rootfs (in the new
"rootfs") and switching to it ("finish"). That is needed to keep udev
running while waiting for the rootfs, because it shuts down before
"finish" starts. It is also the direction that was discussed on the OE
mailing list for future changes to initramfs-framework (like
supporting a "live CD" module, which would replace or further augment
mounting of the rootfs).

When booting from the live image, the label from the bootloader is passed
to init.sh. init.sh uses the label to either boot a live image or call a
script to take over and install the system.
It is possible to add new labels to the bootloader via the LABELS family of
variables, but the names in init.sh were hardcoded to install and
install-efi
this patch checks if a shell script with the same name as the label is
available instead of using a hardcoded list. Any recipe can add such file
and this provide a new boot target to the live image

Running the install option from bootloader to install image to eMMC will fail
with error:
Formatting /dev/mmcblk01 to vfat...
mkfs.fat 3.0.28 (2015-05-16)
/dev/mmcblk01: No such file or directory
This issue impacts both grub and gummiboot install option to eMMC device.
The installation failure is due to the following:
[1] Unable to partition eMMC as the partition prefix 'p' is not appended
The condition checking failed with the additional /dev/ appended with
the target device name.
[2] The partition uuid for boot, root and swap partition is not captured
for eMMC
This fix updated the condition checking and changed the variables to
reference the boot, root and swap partitions for UUID.

When the "boot" parameter refers to a non-existent device, the only
visible output at normal log levels was a rather confusing:
ERROR: There's no '/dev' on rootfs.
That's because the actual error, not being able to find the root
device, was only a debug message, which gets ignored in the default
mode.
Promoting the "root '$bootparam_root' doesn't exist." message from
"debug" to "msg" gives sufficient context to understand the error. A
more intrusive change would be to change also the control flow.

Default is to mount the rootfs read/write. "ro" can be used to turn
that into read-only, which is useful on systems where userspace does
an fsck before remounting read-write.
Giving both "ro" and "rw" will still mount read-only regardless of the
order, because the ordering information is not preserved by the
initramfs-framework's boot param support.

These two parameters are supported by the kernel
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt). When
an initramfs is used, the kernel does not mount the rootfs and the
initramfs needs to react to them.
The boot parameters can be set both by the image creator and
by users.
Supporting these two parameters is useful:
- rootflags is needed to ensure that the rootfs is already mounted as
intended in the time between starting init and init remounting
it (as systemd does); this is critical for IMA where iversion must be
active already when system starts writing files.
- setting it correctly up-front avoids messages from the kernel ("cannot
mount ... as ext2 because ...") when trying to guess the desired type.
For example, assuming that only one of ext4/ext3/ext2 is set,
rootfstype could be set in an image recipe with:
APPEND_append = "${@''.join([' rootfstype=' + i for i in ['ext4', 'ext3', 'ext2'] if i in d.getVar('IMAGE_FSTYPES', True).split()])}"

Some kernels, for example linux-yocto 3.19 for qemux86, fail to
execute /init in an initramfs unless there is already a /dev/console
char device in the initramfs. Booting then fails with:
Kernel panic - not syncing: /dev/console is missing or not a character device!
Please ensure your rootfs is properly configured
The panic itself comes from a linux-yocto specific patch to
kernel_init_freeable in init/main.c, but even without it, that
function will print an error when /dev/console is missing. The
kernel's Documentation/initrd.txt also mentions creating that device.
It remained unclear why this is not a problem on other machines. On
intel-corei7-64 from meta-intel, something (the kernel?) creates
/dev/console and /dev/[012] before transfering control to the init
script. In that case, creating /dev/console in advance is not
necessary, but does not cause any problem either.

Platforms which have the capability of using the MMC as an
installer medium will present the same MMC device as an
installation candidate. This happens because the MMC
devices appear as mmcblk<X> and the current script strips
up the <X> which is needed to identify an MMC device
uniqely.
This patch now updates the way device identifier stripping
is done and handles the exclusion of installer device from
installation candidates more generically.

The init script that invokes install and install-efi scripts
passes the first parameter that identifies the boot drive but
in cases when this disk is labeled and kernel configurations
allow disk labeling under /run/media/ this would pass the disk
label.
The earlier implementation considered that the drive name will
be passed and in case the label is passed it fails and provides
the boot drive as an option for installation driver.
We now use a more generic approach to identify the boot drive
which can handle both drive name as well as label if passed.

There are cases where software after boot may need to know the
current boot disk. Under the current system, it is not guaranteed
which disk is the boot. While /media/sda is a good guess, it
isn't always right, nor is it a good assumption that only one boot
disk is in the system. This gives a standard path to the original
boot disk mount which can be used to, for instance, update the
syslinux file on the boot media with a newer kernel, or updating
the boot parameters to add user options for future boots. Knowing
which disk is the boot media keeps from updating the non-boot
disk when for instance multiple syslinux boot medias are plugged in
(ie ensure correct syslinux is updated when the booted system is
updated).

(This patch was originally done against init-install.sh in

Previously, only unremovable hard drives are searched and are treated

However, it's possible that we're going to install the live image into
a removable media such as an USB. This patch enables this possibility.
In addition, this patch presents more information about the hard drives
so that user may have more knowledge about which hard drive they are
going to install their image into.
