Also skip interfaces which can't be brought up for some reason
(i.e. missing firmware). Thus the system can boot automatically
when exactly one interface has a carrier.
Closes: #40616
LOOP_SET_FD, LOOP_SET_STATUS ioctls trigger a `change` event with
loopback device in question. udev handles those events with
(builtin) blkid command. Probing a device with blkid takes a while,
so init might try to mount the loopback device in question while
`blkid` is still running. As a result init and udev block each other.
Eventually (after 3 minutes or whatever udev event timeout is)
`blkid` gets killed and boot proceeds. However such long delays are
very annoying. Therefore run `udev_settle` after each loop related
ioctl to avoid the concurrent access to the same loopback device.
Closes: #40687
- mkmodpack: include leading directories for firmware files
The kernel needs leading directories in the cpio archive when
creating rootfs. Otherwise, the files will not be copied.
- Add support 'fuid' automatic mode option for method cdrom
- Fix potential memory overflow in welcome string
- Set PREFIX to "/" for nfs and cifs methods due its mounted to image root

The installed system can have several devices with the same structure.
The automatic 'fuid' option can be used to detach one from the other to find the
partition where our stage2 image is stored, launched from stage1 (in this case
propagator). This option works automatically with the cdrom method:
- automatic=method:cdrom,fuid:PATH_TO_UNIQ_UID_FILENAME
- mkmodpack: warn about incorrect patterns
Kernel modules may be needed to access rootfs.
Such modules must be present in the initramfs.
The mkmodpack script finds modules by given patterns.
If the pattern is specified incorrectly, the module
will not be found and booting will become impossible.
Need to warn about module patterns that do not match with anything.

The pattern can match the name of a module built into

However, modprobe can fix some incorrect patterns.
These patterns should also be reported.
- fix hangs until http socket not closed on server side (closes: #37150)
- tools.c: break reading cycle if we actually loaded program into memory
- url.c, network.c: disable keep-alive and close http socket after downloading
- dhcp.c: Remove temporary default route properly (altbug:#34347).
- dhcp.c: Provide DHCP vendor class identifier in requests (altbug:#34320).
This behaviour can be reverted with a kernel command line parameter.
DHCP is implemented in propagator in a rather lazy way:
to dynamically configure a network interface, say `eno1',
instead of slinging raw Ethernet frames around like everyone else,
it sets up a (temporary) default null route through that interface
and throws UDP messages with actual bootp payload.
`ip' utility describes such a route as `default dev eno1 scope link'
The idea behind this presumably was to avoid generating IP and UDP
headers manually while the null route is sufficient to send a couple of
link-wide (maybe broadcast) messages and generic enough to work anywhere.
To this date propagator didn't bother to remove that route,
so *in some networks* it had persisted even after the initramfs
(and propagator itself) was long gone, and in other networks did not,
having been luckily replaced by the default route to DHCP gateway.
In the cases where it did the real problem showed itself
after the real userspace (for example, in a live distro)
eventually tried to reconfigure the network (because why not?).
The pesky null route was most often left untouched by the DHCP client
(ALT live distros mostly use dhcpcd), managing to squeeze its way
up the routing table and effectively preventing the host
from network access beyond a router.
If the NFS root is behind a couple routers, any attempt to access
the file system gets stuck — the system keeps tirelessly looking for
the NFS host via ARP.
Some obsolete DHCP implementations in specialized network hardware
(Cisco, we're looking at you) discard DHCP messages from a client
attempting to reconfigure itself and providing a different vendor class
identifier the second time — much like a network-booting system.
To cope with that, propagator will not send a vendor class identifier
if `dhcp-send-vendor-id:off' is specified as part of its "automatic"
parameters on the kernel command line.
Feel free to use any boolean value: yes/no, true/false, on/off.
The default behaviour is "yes".
