+==========
+
+dracut.sh:
+- fixed finding of btrfs devices
+- harden dracut against BASH_ENV environment variable
+- no more prelinking
+- scan and install "external" kernel modules
+- fixed instmods with zero input
+- rdsosreport: best effort to strip out passwords
+- introduce tri-state hostonly mode
+
+ Add a new option --hostonly-mode which accept an <mode> parameter, so we have a tri-state hostonly mode:
+
+ * generic: by passing "--no-hostonly" or not passing anything.
+ "--hostonly-mode" has no effect in such case.
+ * sloppy: by passing "--hostonly --hostonly-mode sloppy". This
+ is also the default mode when only "--hostonly" is given.
+ * strict: by passing "--hostonly --hostonly-mode strict".
+
+ Sloppy mode is the original hostonly mode, the new introduced strict
+ mode will allow modules to ignore more drivers or do some extra job to
+ save memory and disk space, while making the image less portable.
+
+ Also introduced a helper function "optional_hostonly" to make it
+ easier for modules to leverage new hostonly mode.
+
+ To force install modules only in sloppy hostonly mode, use the form:
+
+ hostonly="$(optional_hostonly)" instmods <modules>

==========
-dracut now requires libkmod for the dracut-install binary helper.
+Important: dracut now requires libkmod for the dracut-install binary helper,
+ which nows handles kernel module installing and filtering.
dracut.sh:
- restorecon final image file
and include only, if systemd is used
- fixed dmsquash-live-root.sh for cases where the fstype of the liveimage is squashfs
- fixed typo for rootfs.img
+- enable the use of the OverlayFS for the LiveOS root filesystem
+ Patch notes:
+ Integrate the option to use an OverlayFS as the root filesystem
+ into the 90dmsquash-live module for testing purposes.
+
+ The rd.live.overlay.overlayfs option allows one to request an
+ OverlayFS overlay. If a persistent overlay is detected at the
+ standard LiveOS path, the overlay & type detected will be used.
+
+ Tested primarily with transient, in-RAM overlay boots on vfat-
+ formatted Live USB devices, with persistent overlay directories
+ on ext4-formatted Live USB devices, and with embedded, persistent
+ overlay directories on vfat-formatted devices. (Persistent overlay
+ directories on a vfat-formatted device must be in an embedded
+ filesystem that supports the creation of trusted.* extended
+ attributes, and must provide valid d_type in readdir responses.)
+
+ The rd.live.overlay.readonly option, which allows a persistent
+ overlayfs to be mounted read only through a higher level transient
+ overlay directory, has been implemented through the multiple lower
+ layers feature of OverlayFS.
+
+ The default transient DM overlay size has been adjusted up to 32 GiB.
+ This change supports comparison of transient Device-mapper vs.
+ transient OverlayFS overlay performance. A transient DM overlay
+ is a sparse file in memory, so this setting does not consume more
+ RAM for legacy applications. It does permit a user to use all of
+ the available root filesystem storage, and fails gently when it is
+ consumed, as the available free root filesystem storage on a typical
+ LiveOS build is only a few GiB. Thus, when booted on other-
+ than-small RAM systems, the transient DM overlay should not overflow.
+
+ OverlayFS offers the potential to use all of the available free RAM
+ or all of the available free disc storage (on non-vfat-devices)
+ in its overlay, even beyond the root filesystem available space,
+ because the OverlayFS root filesystem is a union of directories on
+ two different partitions.
+
+ This patch also cleans up some message spew at shutdown, shortens
+ the execution path in a couple of places, and uses persistent
+ DM targets where required.
