dracut: use /bin/sh instead of bash as the intepreter #11244
Conversation
Hm, checkbashisms 2.20.4 accepts |
Yes, we ran into that issue here too, #10917 I still vote for modifying the CI environment by manually installing a newer checkbashisms to fix this bug, rather than working around it in the code. |
I'd still prefer not to update the CI environment with this kind of customization if we can avoid it. The CI uses the ubuntu-latest Github actions environment and it appears that will start being updated on November 30th. That should get a newer version of checkbashisms provided by the distribution. For the moment @sgn can you simply update the top-level |
Sure, I will do that. I suppose I can exclude |
Despite that dracut has a hard dependency on bash, its modules doesn't, dracut only has a hard dependency on bash for module-setup (on a fully usable machine). Inside initramfs, dracut allows users choose from a list of handful other shells, e.g. bash, busybox, dash, mkfsh. In fact, my local machine's initramfs is being built with dash, and it's functional for a very long time. Before 64025fa (Silence 'make checkbashisms', 2020-08-20), we also allows our users to have that right, too. Let's fix the problem 'make checkbashisms' reported and allows our users to have that right, again. For 'plymouth' case, let's simply run the command inside the if instead of checking for the existence of command before running it, because the status is also failture if plymouth is unavailable. While we're at it, let's remove an unnecessary fork for grep in zfs-generator.sh.in and its following complicated 'if elif fi' with a simple 'case ... esac'. To support this change, also exclude 90zfs from "make checkbashisms" because the current CI infrastructure ships an old version of "checkbashisms", which complains about "command -v", while the current latest "checkbashisms" thinks it's fine. In the near future, we can revert that change to "Makefile.am" when CI infrastructure is updated. Signed-off-by: Đoàn Trần Công Danh <congdanhqx@gmail.com>

Motivation and Context
Before 64025fa (Silence 'make checkbashisms', 2020-08-20), we also
allows our users to use other shells with dracut+zfs. After that changes, we don't
Description
How Has This Been Tested?
This is not tested, yet. I will arrange the test later today.Tested by applying on top of zfs 2.0.0-rc7
I create this PR now to notify that this change may break some users with the next release.
