90mdraid: fix/adjust 65-md* rules and related scripts
Reworked the flow of the rules file a bit, removed redundant tests, also
should be easier to follow. It's much shorter now as well, a bit more
similar to 90lvm script - both revolve around same concepts after all.
There's no reason to treat conf-assembled arrays differently from
incremental ones. Once we hit timeout in init's udev loop, we can use
common script (mdraid_start.sh) to try force inactive arrays
into degraded mode.
md-finished.sh was kind-of out of place - it didn't really wait for any
particular device(s) to show up, just watched if onetime mdadm scripts
are still in place. Furthermore, after moving mdraid_start to --timeout
initqueue, it didn't really have too much to watch at all, besides
mdadm_auto (and that served no purpose, as we do wait for concrete
devices).
Either way, with stock 64-md fixes, current version of 65-md*.rules does
the following:
- limits assembly to certain uuids, if specified
- watch for no ddf/imsm
- if mdadm.conf => setup onetime -As script, without forced --run option
- if !mdadm.conf => incrementally assemble
- for both cases, setup timeout script, run-forcing arrays as a last resort
Currently such auto assembly will not complete or force-run partially
assembled arrays. It might assemble "concurrent" separate array and
force-run it, if possible (though the chances of suddenly showing
missing components in this scenario - a script run after udev timeout -
are pretty thin). See [1] for details. Also see #3 below.
2) mdadm -Is --run 2>&1 (removed)
This will only force-run native arrays - arrays in containers will not
be affected. See [1] for details. Also see #3 below.
3) mdadm -R run loop (implicitly handles #1 & #2)
This loop does everywthing that #1 & #2 are expected to do. Thus, the
above invocations are simply redundant and this is the most safe and
flexible option.
Also, it shouldn't be necessary to go under md/ directory, as those are
just symlinks to /dev/md[0-9]*.
Certain checks were changed to strict ones (array state, degraded state)
instead of relying on env tricks.
'cat' was added explicitly to installed programs (it has been used
implicitly in shutdown script either way)
4) mdmon bug
See [1] for details as well. In short - force-run arrays in containers
will not have mdmon started, so we do that manually.
5) stop/run queue magic
Also removed. mdadm -R will only cause change events to the array
itself, and they should not be an issue.

90mdraid: containers are not runnable
Remove whole "start a container logic".
Containers once assembled, always remain in 'inactive' state.
Any attempt to run a container with mdadm -IR is a no-op, and any
attempt with just mdadm -R ends with an error.

90mdraid: adjust stock mdadm udev rules
Currently shipped mdadm rules incrementally assemble all imsm and native
raids, and do so unconditionally. This causes few issues:
- fine-grained controls in 65-md* are shadowed - for example,
mdadm.conf's presence tests or uuid checks
- 90dmraid might also conflict with 90mdraid, if user prefers the former
to handle containers
- possibly other subtle issues

instmods: get filenames from stdin if no args; use it
Use bash "[[ string =~ pattern ]]" instead of "egrep -q".
Replace control-dominated serial fondling

proc1 | while read var; do proc2 var; done
Together this is a large savings.

build initramfs: unclear _mpargs in instmods()
The local variable _mpargs in function instmods() in file dracut-functions
looks peculiar. The documentation is non-existent, but still ...
First, $_mpargs is not passed to modprobe via for_each_kmod_dep.
This is strange because my guess is that "_mpargs" means
"extra arguments for modprobe".
Second, the leading "--" will be lopped when a leading pathname
is stripped via
_mod=${_mod##*/}
It seems to me that a leading "--" should inhibit modification.
Here's the corresponding patch to current HEAD (from dracut-013.)

add apply-live-updates.sh to pre-pivot hook
If we're about to start a Live image (i.e. if /dev/mapper/live-rw
exists) this script will take any files found in /updates (inside the
initramfs!) and and copy them into $NEWROOT.
This allows for hotfixes to be applied to existing Live images without
rebuilding the entire image.

95rootfs-block/mount-root.sh: comment out fstab generation
fsck_single() operates directly on the device, so fstab is not
necessary. fs-lib functions make sure fscks don't complain.
Code is only commented out just in case I missed something.

implement fs-lib, squash a few bugs that were part of det_fs/wrap_fsck
To not pollute dracut-lib.sh, all the fsck related functions were moved
to fs-lib.sh. The functions available are as follows:
- fsck_single
this will detect/verify filesystem, check if it has necessary tools and
check the filesystem respecting additional flags (if any), using
specific "driver" (or falling back to generic one). Currently
available: fsck_drv_{com,xfs,std}. 'com' is used for tools following
typical subset of options/return codes (e.g. ext, jfs), 'std' is used
for "unknown" fs and doesn't assume it can be run non-interactively.
Please see comments around the code for more info.
- fsck_batch
this will check provided list of the devices;
Both of the above functions will fake empty fstab, to make generic fsck
not complain too much (excact devices are always provided on the command
line).
Small bug fixed - as this function is meant to be called in $(), it may
not be verbose.
Current behaviour is:
- if detection is successful, use its result
- if detection is not successful, and filesystem is provided, return
the provided one; otherwise use auto
