• initramfs-tools 0.142 release

    From Ben Hutchings@21:1/5 to All on Wed Jul 13 01:00:01 2022
    This release fixes a number of bugs and compatibility issues:
    - Swap devices on zvols could be automatically selected as resume
    devices, even though they can't be used as such
    - modules.builtin.modinfo was not included in the initramfs, which
    depmod now complains about
    - UFS drivers would not be included in an initramfs built with
    MODULES=most for Linux 5.19 onward

    New features in this release:
    - Compressed kernel modules are decompressed in the initramfs image,
    which should reduce the image size and boot time
    - Compression level can be overridden in initramfs.conf or on the
    mkinitramfs command line
    - The fsck binary is always included, so that it can be used in the
    initramfs shell
    - Drivers needed for a working display on the MNT Reform 2 are
    included with MODULES=most

    The shortlog is below.

    Ben.
