Hi Kel and other sysvinit developers, I've attached a further update for your consideration, which fixes a few issues. If it's OK with you, this could be uploaded to experimental (with your changes folded into the same version in the changelog) as 2.88dsf-13.5. Unless you'd prefer to do a maintainer upload. The logic used for mounting filesystems is duplicated entirely between the various scripts doing mounting, and the mtab script used to generate the initial mtab. This includes the domtab() function, which is almost entirely identical to domount() with the use of -f with mount. This patch removes the duplication, and uses the same codepaths for both mounting and mtab generation, which will make the scripts much more robust when making any changes. The reason for doing this was principally to allow for /remounting/ of already mounted filesystems so that filesystems mounted in the initramfs and subsequently moved onto the rootfs could be made to use the mount options specified in /etc/fstab (and /etc/default/tmpfs, where applicable). This means that all filesystems mounted by the initramfs are entirely user-configurable, so mount options and policies are not hardcoded in the initramfs. I also added remount/reload argument support to mountkernfs/mountdevsubfs which means you can edit /etc/defaults/* and/or /etc/fstab and then reload to make those changes active. Other than that, we create relative rather than absolute symlinks, and I've made the error checking and other parts of the scripts more robust. Other than these changes, I'm not aware of anything outstanding in initscripts needing changes to support /run. The symlinks neeed making relative, and while I did the mount changes to allow for a clean handover from the initramfs-mounted /run to the real system so our configuration would still get applied, this is a general change which applies to all initramfs-mounted filesystems via creation of a suitable entry in /etc/fstab.
