The following is a list of files and features that are going to be removed in
|
|
|
|
|
the source tree. Every entry should contain what exactly is going away, why it
|
|
|
|
|
is happening, and who is going to be doing the work. When the feature is
|
|
|
|
|
removed, it should also be removed from this file.

|
|
What: rc_sys automatic detection code
|
|
|
|
|
- Functions for removal: rc_sys_v1, rc_sys_v2
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When: 2011/03/01
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Why: The original automatic sub-system detection is flawed in that it cannot
|
|
|
|
|
safely detect some variables (Using cgroups confused it to think you were
|
|
|
|
|
using LXC, and Prefix cannot be detect by definition). Also, almost all of
|
|
|
|
|
the detection requires that /proc is available and readable. During early
|
|
|
|
|
boot, /proc may not be mounted yet, leading to mis-detection. The readable
|
|
|
|
|
condition can also fail under some hardened kernels when running as an
|
|
|
|
|
unprivileged user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The new rc_sys_v2 function uses the rc_sys variable from rc.conf. After
|
|
|
|
|
the removal, the contents of the rc_sys_v2 function will move into the
|
|
|
|
|
rc_sys function.
