dm init: add dm-mod.waitfor to wait for asynchronously probed block devices

2022-12-02T22:37:45Z

Just calling wait_for_device_probe() is not enough to ensure that asynchronously probed block devices are available (E.G. mmc, usb), so add a "dm-mod.waitfor=[,..,]" parameter to get dm-init to explicitly wait for specific block devices before initializing the tables with logic similar to the rootwait logic that was introduced with commit cc1ed7542c8c ("init: wait for asynchronously scanned block devices"). E.G. with dm-verity on mmc using: dm-mod.waitfor="PARTLABEL=hash-a,PARTLABEL=root-a" [ 0.671671] device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices [ 0.671679] device-mapper: init: waiting for device PARTLABEL=hash-a ...

dm init: remove trailing newline from calls to DMERR() and DMINFO()

2019-06-25T17:43:09Z

These printing macros already add a trailing newline, so having another one here just makes for blank lines when these prints are enabled. Remove these needless newlines.

dm: add support to directly boot to a mapped device

2019-03-05T19:53:50Z

Add a "create" module parameter, which allows device-mapper targets to be configured at boot time. This enables early use of DM targets in the boot process (as the root device or otherwise) without the need of an initramfs. The syntax used in the boot param is based on the concise format from the dmsetup tool to follow the rule of least surprise: dmsetup table --concise /dev/mapper/lroot Which is: dm-mod.create=,,,,[,

+][;,,,,

+]+] Where, ::= The device name. ::= xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx | "" ::= The device minor number | "" ::= "ro" | "rw"

::= ::= "verity" | "linear" | ... For example, the following could be added in the boot parameters: dm-mod.create="lroot,,,rw, 0 4096 linear 98:16 0, 4096 4096 linear 98:32 0" root=/dev/dm-0 Only the targets that were tested are allowed and the ones that don't change any block device when the device is create as read-only. For example, mirror and cache targets are not allowed. The rationale behind this is that if the user makes a mistake, choosing the wrong device to be the mirror or the cache can corrupt data. The only targets initially allowed are: * crypt * delay * linear * snapshot-origin * striped * verity Co-developed-by: Will Drewry Co-developed-by: Kees Cook Co-developed-by: Enric Balletbo i Serra Signed-off-by: Helen Koike Reviewed-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer
