This adds the support for veritytab. The veritytab file contains at most five fields, the first four are mandatory, the last one is optional: - The first field contains the name of the resulting verity volume; its block device is set up /dev/mapper/</filename>. - The second field contains a path to the underlying block data device, or a specification of a block device via UUID= followed by the UUID. - The third field contains a path to the underlying block hash device, or a specification of a block device via UUID= followed by the UUID. - The fourth field is the roothash in hexadecimal. - The fifth field, if present, is a comma-delimited list of options. The following options are recognized only: ignore-corruption, restart-on-corruption, panic-on-corruption, ignore-zero-blocks, check-at-most-once and root-hash-signature. The others options will be implemented later. Also, this adds support for the new kernel verity command line boolean option "veritytab" which enables the read for veritytab, and the new environment variable SYSTEMD_VERITYTAB which sets the path to the file veritytab to read.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>A number of different components are involved in the boot of a Linux system. Immediately after
|
|
power-up, the system firmware will do minimal hardware initialization, and hand control over to a boot
|
|
loader (e.g.
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-boot</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> or
|
|
<ulink url="https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/">GRUB</ulink>) stored on a persistent storage device. This
|
|
boot loader will then invoke an OS kernel from disk (or the network). On systems using EFI or other types
|
|
of firmware, this firmware may also load the kernel directly.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The kernel (optionally) mounts an in-memory file system, often generated by
|
|
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>dracut</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
which looks for the root file system. Nowadays this is usually implemented as an initramfs — a compressed
|
|
archive which is extracted when the kernel boots up into a lightweight in-memory file system based on
|
|
tmpfs, but in the past normal file systems using an in-memory block device (ramdisk) were used, and the
|
|
name "initrd" is still used to describe both concepts. It's the boot loader or the firmware that loads
|
|
both the kernel and initrd/initramfs images into memory, but the kernel which interprets it as a file
|
|
system. <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry> may
|
|
be used to manage services in the initrd, similarly to the real system.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>After the root file system is found and mounted, the initrd hands over control to the host's system
|
|
manager (such as
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>) stored in
|
|
the root file system, which is then responsible for probing all remaining hardware, mounting all
|
|
necessary file systems and spawning all configured services.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>On shutdown, the system manager stops all services, unmounts
|
|
all file systems (detaching the storage technologies backing
|
|
them), and then (optionally) jumps back into the initrd code which
|
|
unmounts/detaches the root file system and the storage it resides
|
|
on. As a last step, the system is powered down.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Additional information about the system boot process may be
|

<title>System Manager Bootup</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>At boot, the system manager on the OS image is responsible
|
|
for initializing the required file systems, services and drivers
|
|
that are necessary for operation of the system. On
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
systems, this process is split up in various discrete steps which
|
|
are exposed as target units. (See
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.target</refentrytitle><manvolnum>5</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
for detailed information about target units.) The boot-up process
|
|
is highly parallelized so that the order in which specific target
|
|
units are reached is not deterministic, but still adheres to a
|
|
limited amount of ordering structure.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>When systemd starts up the system, it will activate all
|
|
units that are dependencies of <filename>default.target</filename>
|
|
(as well as recursively all dependencies of these dependencies).
|
|
Usually, <filename>default.target</filename> is simply an alias of
|
|
<filename>graphical.target</filename> or
|
|
<filename>multi-user.target</filename>, depending on whether the
|
|
system is configured for a graphical UI or only for a text
|
|
console. To enforce minimal ordering between the units pulled in,
|
|
a number of well-known target units are available, as listed on
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.special</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The following chart is a structural overview of these
|
|
well-known units and their position in the boot-up logic. The
|
|
arrows describe which units are pulled in and ordered before which
|
|
other units. Units near the top are started before units nearer to
|
|
the bottom of the chart.</para>

<title>Bootup in the Initial RAM Disk (initrd)</title>
|
|
<para>The initial RAM disk implementation (initrd) can be set up
|
|
using systemd as well. In this case, boot up inside the initrd
|
|
follows the following structure.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>systemd detects that it is run within an initrd by checking
|
|
for the file <filename>/etc/initrd-release</filename>.
|
|
The default target in the initrd is
|
|
<filename>initrd.target</filename>. The bootup process begins
|
|
identical to the system manager bootup (see above) until it
|
|
reaches <filename>basic.target</filename>. From there, systemd
|
|
approaches the special target <filename>initrd.target</filename>.
|
|
|
|
Before any file systems are mounted, it must be determined whether
|
|
the system will resume from hibernation or proceed with normal boot.
|
|
This is accomplished by <filename>systemd-hibernate-resume@.service</filename>
|
|
which must be finished before <filename>local-fs-pre.target</filename>,
|
|
so no filesystems can be mounted before the check is complete.
|
|
|
|
When the root device becomes available,
|
|
<filename>initrd-root-device.target</filename> is reached.
|
|
If the root device can be mounted at
|
|
<filename>/sysroot</filename>, the
|
|
<filename>sysroot.mount</filename> unit becomes active and
|
|
<filename>initrd-root-fs.target</filename> is reached. The service
|
|
<filename>initrd-parse-etc.service</filename> scans
|
|
<filename>/sysroot/etc/fstab</filename> for a possible
|
|
<filename>/usr/</filename> mount point and additional entries
|
|
marked with the <emphasis>x-initrd.mount</emphasis> option. All
|
|
entries found are mounted below <filename>/sysroot</filename>, and
|
|
<filename>initrd-fs.target</filename> is reached. The service
|
|
<filename>initrd-cleanup.service</filename> isolates to the
|
|
<filename>initrd-switch-root.target</filename>, where cleanup
|
|
services can run. As the very last step, the
|
|
<filename>initrd-switch-root.service</filename> is activated,
|
|
which will cause the system to switch its root to
|
|
<filename>/sysroot</filename>.
