sysvinit-inittab: ensure unique label for SERIAL_CONSOLES entries

2013-10-10T11:21:00+00:00

The label field in /etc/inittab entries needs to be unique, and the
numeric label being used for the SERIAL_CONSOLES getty entries was
clashing with the entries added for standard ttyX entries added via
SYSVINIT_ENABLED_GETTYS. Use the part after "tty" in the device name
(which is what the comment further down explicitly says should be done)
as the label rather than a simple incrementing number.

Fixes [YOCTO #4374].

sysvinit: rc: exit psplash correctly

2013-03-27T11:02:58+00:00

Previously, psplash didn't go away at system startup.
The root cause is that rc checks the file '/etc/init.d/xserver-nodm' to
determine whether to exit psplash manually. So even if xserver-nodm is not
linked into runlevel 3, psplash doesn't exit.

This patch fixes this problem by letting the rc script check the file
'/etc/rc${runlevel}.d/S??xserver-nodm' to determine whether to exit psplash
manually.

sysvinit: add ROOTFS_READ_ONLY variable to rcS-default

2013-02-06T09:35:05+00:00

This variable indicates whether the rootfs is intended to be read-only
or not. Changing this value from 'no' to 'yes' on a currently running
system with read-write rootfs and rebooting will give the user a working
system with read-only rootfs.

However, it is not suggested to change its value. Normally, if a read-only
rootfs is required, we should build an image with 'read-only-rootfs' image
feature.

sysvinit & initscripts: use update-rc.d

2013-01-28T12:25:35+00:00

Update-rc.d provides a cleaner interface for creating links for init scripts.
So we use update-rc.d to replace the redundant 'ln -sf xxx' statements.

sysvinit-inittab: fix hang issue of series consoles check

2012-09-26T13:53:24+00:00

The kernel boot process hangs when /proc/consoles doesn't exists, therefore
check the existence of /proc/consoles before executing pkg_postinst script.

Following is the log when /proc/consoles doesn't exist:
        Running postinst /etc/rpm-postinsts/102...
        cat: /proc/consoles: No such file or directory
        cat: /proc/consoles: No such file or directory

sysvinit-inittab_2.88dsf.bb: only run serial checks at boot if we have items to check

2012-09-12T13:44:54+00:00

Right now, we delay running the serial console checks to we boot up. This causes
issues for read only file systems. So, if have not configured any serial ports to
check via SERIAL_CONSOLES_CHECK we can skip the check at boot. This fixes any
issues with read only file systems and ipk packaging.

sysvinit-inittab_2.88dsf.bb: Allow multiple serial port consoles to be defined

2012-07-16T15:36:57+00:00

Set SERIAL_CONSOLES if you want to define multiple serial consoles, also if
you need to check for the presence of the serial consoles you can also define
SERIAL_CONSOLES_CHECK to determine if these are present when you boot. This
will prevent error message that pop up when the serial port is not present.

SERIAL_CONSOLES = "115200;ttyS0 115200;ttyS1 115200;ttyEHV0"
SERIAL_CONSOLES_CHECK = "${SERIAL_CONSOLES}"

The above lines in machine.conf or elsewhere will have the effect of having
two serial consoles and removing any that are not present at boot
