Description Doug Chapman 2008-07-09 15:38:29 UTC
Description of problem:
Recent mkinitrd no longer adds these lines to the init script:

modprobe scsi_wait_scan
rmmod scsi_wait_scan

also does not appear to be pulling in scsi_wait_scan at all.

This breaks booting on scsi.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mkinitrd-6.0.54-1.fc10

testing 6.0.55 now but based on the changelog it does not appear this is fixed.

Comment 1 Doug Chapman 2008-07-09 17:35:19 UTC
I confirmed mkinitrd-6.0.55-1.fc10 does still have this issue.


Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2008-07-09 18:17:55 UTC
This is because scsi_mod is now built-in and that was what we used to key
needing scsi_wait_scan

Comment 3 Dave Jones 2008-07-09 23:24:55 UTC
ah, good catch.
I could flip this back to =m if there's no better way.
Strikes me as somewhat fragile to do it this way, though I admit I haven't got
any better ideas.

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2008-07-09 23:41:39 UTC
I guess we could try to do some form of determination based on symbols used in
the module, but then we have to be doing nm on modules.  Or we could use the
modules.block file and seeing if the driver is listed there



Comment 5 Bug Zapper 2008-11-26 02:32:05 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 10 development cycle.
Changing version to '10'.

Created attachment 326229 [details]
Correct variable name

There is some code in there to wait for scsi to stop scanning it doesn't use the module but it would work if the variable name was consistent.

Comment 7 Nate Clark 2008-12-09 06:24:43 UTC
Created attachment 326270 [details]
Corrected all variable names

Last suggested patch made things worse this one makes all variables the same name.
