blueness> poettering, was there a reason for not removing
50-firmware.rules when you nuked userland firmware
loading?
Followup for v216-119-gbe2ea723b1.
SYSTEMD_READY is currently set to 0 for all loop devices (loop[0-9]*)
that do not have a backing_file. Partitioned loop devices (ex. loop0p1),
however, are matched by this rule and excluded by systemd even though
they are active devices.
This change adds an additional check to the rule, ensuring that only
top level loop devices (loop[0-9]+$) are excluded from systemd.
Re-apply the keymaps when "udevadm trigger" is called. Hooking into
"add" only would just remove all keymap content from the udev database
instead of applying the new config.
Update comment to be a bit more specific.
Change match to blacklist the serial number of the broken devices
instead of whitelisting the serial number of the fixed devices.
This allows to do something useful with the serial number in the
future.
Add the first 3270 terminal device that is associated with the Linux preferred
console to the list of virtualization consoles. This is required to
automatically start a getty if the conmode=3270 kernel parameter is specified
for Linux on z/VM instances. Note that a queued upstream patch also enable
the 3270 terminal device if it is associated with the Linux preferred console.
How
To successfully start agetty on a 3270 terminal, a change in the agetty
parameter order is required. Previously, agetty would started like this:
/sbin/agetty --keep-baud 3270/tty1 115200,38400,9600 TERM
The agetty program interprets the "3270/tty1" as baud rate and fails to start
with the "bad speed: 3270/tty1" error message. Fixing this in agetty is more
complex rather than reordering the command line parameters like this:
/sbin/agetty --keep-baud 115200,38400,9600 3270/tty1 TERM
According to agetty sources and "agetty --help", agetty accepts the "tty",
"baudrate tty", and "tty baudrate" specifications.
P.S. The "tty: Set correct tty name in 'active' sysfs attribute" introduces
a change to display the terminal device which is associated with the
Linux preferred console. This change helps to let systemd handle this
particular case only. Without the changes of this commit, no additional
3270 terminal device can be managed by systemd.

Before it was placed in /dev/disk/by-id, which makes it a bit too much
API. However, it's mostly an implementation detail for now, hence move
it out of the stable block device dir.
Check existence of loop/backing_file in sysfs and mark loop devices with
SYSTEMD_READY if missing. Such loop files is uninitialized and it's not
ready for use yet (there's no file attached).
udev seems to have a race condition with swapon to see which can open
/dev/zram0 first, causing swapon to fail. Seems to be most noticeable
on arm devices one out of every 7 times or something.
Ensure to start getty programs on all essential system consoles on Linux on
System z. Add these essential devices to the list of virtualization_consoles
to always generate getty configurations.
For the sake of completion, the list of essential consoles is:
/dev/sclp_line0 - Operating system messages applet (LPAR)
/dev/ttysclp0 - Integrated ASCII console applet (z/VM and LPAR)
/dev/ttyS0 - Already handled by systemd (3215 console on z/VM)
/dev/hvc0 - Already handled by systemd (IUCV HVC terminal on z/VM)
Depending on the environment, z/VM or LPAR, only a subset of these terminals
are available.
See also RH BZ 860158[1] "Cannot login via Operating System Console into RHEL7
instance installed on a LPAR". This bugzilla actually blocks the installation
of Linux on System z instances in LPAR mode.

The path_id-builtin provides useful unique aliases for DRM devices. If we
want to configure DRM render-nodes for compositors, we want to avoid
storing the whole sys-path in configuration files. Hence, allow users to
store the short PATH_ID instead.
Load path_id-builtin unconditionally on DRM devices now to always provide
this alias.
