| fix-multipath-include-Debian-specific-priority-of-udev-ru.patch | fix(multipath): include Debian-specific priority of udev rules In Debian multipath-tools 0.13.0-1 carries 0004-Debian-specific-priority-of-udev-rules.patch which changes the priority of udev rules with following reasoning: 11-dm-*.rules supposedly should apply after dmsetup rules, but in Debian these have priority 55 instead of 11. Also for historic reasons, multipath.rules and kpartx.rules have a slightly higher prio in Debian than upstream. The result is that kpartx is not run when booting, multipath disk partitions are not found, and boot fails. Until Debian/Ubuntu and upstream agrees on one common naming, include the renumbered udev rules (similar to what has been done in the dm and lvm Dracut modules). |

| fix-net-lib-normalize-iSCSI-target-names-on-the-iqn.-eui..patch | fix(net-lib): normalize iSCSI target names on the iqn./eui./naa. path Commit 843af3e751782285cd2bc7c9a3a9d33e843fb91d added a `normalized_iscsi_name()` call at the end of `parse_iscsi_root()`, but that statement is only reachable via the legacy positional parsing path. When the target name is matched by the `*:iqn.*` / `*:eui.*` / `*:naa.*` case statement, the function returns before the normalization is ever applied.

Antonio Alvarez Feijoo <antonio.feijoo@suse.com> | no | upstream, https://github.com/dracut-ng/dracut/commit/da39dde8f5f49a8a068b5fadb71d932fdf0712de | 2026-08-03 | |
| fix-iscsi-do-not-source-the-boot-time-net-lib.sh-into-mod.patch | fix(iscsi): do not source the boot-time net-lib.sh into module-setup.sh That sources all of net-lib.sh into dracut.sh, not just the one function that is wanted. net-lib.sh defines `iface_for_remote_addr()`, which is also defined in dracut-functions.sh with a different implementation, so the boot-time version silently replaces it for the rest of the run. The version in dracut-functions.sh parses `ip -o route get` and prints nothing when the route has no dev token; the version in net-lib.sh parses `ip route get` and prints the last field unconditionally, so an unreachable route yields the literal string "unreachable" as an interface name. `ip_params_for_remote_addr()` then builds a bogus `ip=` line from it. Usually boot-time libraries are not sourced into the generator, helpers on both sides are duplicated instead, e.g.: `iface_for_remote_addr()`. Fixes 843af3e751782285cd2bc7c9a3a9d33e843fb91d |

| fix-iscsi-normalize-the-target-name-in-the-generated-netr.patch | fix(iscsi): normalize the target name in the generated netroot= Commit 843af3e751782285cd2bc7c9a3a9d33e843fb91d normalized `rd.iscsi.initiator=` but left the target name in the `netroot=` line on the next line unnormalized, even though both come from the same sysfs session directory and are subject to the same RFC 3722 rules.

| fix-dracut-remove-globbing-does-not-work.patch | fix(dracut): --remove globbing does not work The glob pattern is quoted in the call to `rm`, so it does not expand. E.g.: ``` $ dracut -f --remove "/etc/udev/rules.d/*.rules" test.img $ lsinitrd test.img | grep etc/udev/rules.d drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Aug 4 14:06 etc/udev/rules.d -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 297 Jul 22 08:10 etc/udev/rules.d/59-persistent-storage.rules -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1030 Jul 22 08:10 etc/udev/rules.d/61-persistent-storage.rules ``` Fixes f8dfe3ee5b958262c38a821b15443893e400dba0 |

| fix-dracut-remove-allows-removing-files-from-the-host-fil.patch | fix(dracut): --remove allows removing files from the host filesystem The dracut temporary directory is under /var/tmp/dracut.???????/initramfs, so using ".." specifiers in the path allows escaping from it. E.g.: ``` $ mkdir /hostdir && ls -l /hostdir total 0 $ dracut -f --remove "../../../../hostdir" test.img $ ls -l /hostdir ``` Fixes f8dfe3ee5b958262c38a821b15443893e400dba0 |

| refactor-net-lib-use-strip_non_digits-to-validate-iSCSI-L.patch | refactor(net-lib): use strip_non_digits() to validate iSCSI LUN parameters This function is a generalization of `_validate_iscsi_lun()`. It checks if the first argument contains only digits; otherwise, it removes any non-digit characters and prints a warning message. |

| fix-net-lib-validate-iSCSI-port-parameters.patch | fix(net-lib): validate iSCSI port parameters Similar to 05c02db994ca322371a40695a3cc223faa1c7258, the iSCSI port is a number. Validate that given ports are numbers. |

| fix-dracut-systemd-actually-make-rd.break-pre-trigger-sto.patch | fix(dracut-systemd): actually make rd.break=pre-trigger stop before pre-trigger Currently, pre-trigger hooks are sourced before the breakpoint, not after. It's the only `rd.break` option with this behavior, even all the non-systemd breakpoints defined in 80base/init.sh work as intended. Follow-up for 22137f9cac5ceb1a1d0ff8c5cab3d7bb8b582e33 |

| fix-base-sanitize-message-written-by-die-to-the-emergency.patch | fix(base): sanitize message written by die() to the emergency hook It is possible that not all messages passed to `die()` are trusted. E.g., netroot.sh calls: ``` die "No handler for netroot type '$netroot'" ``` The value of `$netroot` can be taken from the DHCP root-path option; that would be safe thanks to previous fixes that escape DHCP values before writing them to dhclient's dhcpopts files. But, it may also be taken directly from the `netroot=` kernel command line option, allowing any type of characters. Use the `escape()` helper and single-quote the message instead, which is the safe usage documented for escape(). |

| fix-iscsi-sanitize-netroot-value-passed-to-initqueue-scri.patch | fix(iscsi): sanitize netroot= value passed to initqueue scripts The value of the `netroot=` kernel command line option is passed unsanitized to initqueue scripts, which end up being sourced as shell scripts. |

| refactor-devicetree-firmware-make-looping-over-fw_dir-top.patch | refactor(devicetree-firmware): make looping over fw_dir top-level loop Make the looping over $fw_dir the top-level loop. This is a preparation patch for adding support to install_generic() to add soc specific firmwares (qcom/<soc>/qupv3fw.elf). |

| fix-devicetree-firmware-include-soc-specific-firmwares-in.patch | fix(devicetree-firmware): include soc specific firmwares in install_generic() Qualcomm boards may use SoC specific firmwares from an otherwise generic driver like qcom-geni-se. Which firmware to load is specified with a firmware-name devicetree-property, so install_hostonly() already picks these up. Make install_generic() also include these in the initramfs by explicitly searching for them similar to how this is already done for Qualcomm laptop model specific firmwares. |

| fix-devicetree-firmware-include-Qualcomm-X2-laptop-model-.patch | fix(devicetree-firmware): include Qualcomm X2 laptop model specific firmwares Qualcomm laptops typically have laptop model specific firmwares. Extend install_generic() to pick up the laptop model specific firmwares for the new X2 / Glymur laptops which have a filename pattern of: <fwdir>/qcom/glymur/<vendor>/<model>/*.[mbn|elf] |

| fix-lsinitrd-do-no-sort-cpio-output-if-not-needed.patch | fix(lsinitrd): do no sort cpio output if not needed lsinitrd will try to sort the cpio output by the file which is normally key 9, but this is not the case for special files. Therefore special files are shown first: ``` drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 19 15:31 . crw-r--r-- 1 root root 5, 1 Aug 19 15:31 dev/console crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 11 Aug 19 15:31 dev/kmsg crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 3 Aug 19 15:31 dev/null crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 8 Aug 19 15:31 dev/random crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 9 Aug 19 15:31 dev/urandom lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug 19 15:31 bin -> usr/bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 19 15:31 dev drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 19 15:31 etc [...] ``` This sorting is confusing and not needed in the normal case. Normally the content of the cpio is already sorted. So removing the sorting. Then the output is in correct order: ``` drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 19 15:31 . lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Aug 19 15:31 bin -> usr/bin drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 19 15:31 dev crw-r--r-- 1 root root 5, 1 Aug 19 15:31 dev/console crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 11 Aug 19 15:31 dev/kmsg crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 3 Aug 19 15:31 dev/null crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 8 Aug 19 15:31 dev/random crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 9 Aug 19 15:31 dev/urandom drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Aug 19 15:31 etc [...] ``` |

| feat-put-compressed-kernel-modules-and-firmware-in-an-unc.patch | feat: put compressed kernel modules and firmware in an uncompressed cpio Dracut compresses all files that are put into the initramfs. Kernel modules and firmware files might already be compressed. Compressing those files will not give any size savings. So put compressed kernel modules and firmware files in an uncompressed cpio instead. This will speed up the initrd generation and extraction without a significant size change of the initrd. See https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/initramfs-tools/-/merge_requests/128 and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2023-July/042707.html for a similar change in initramfs-tools. |
