However, in testing with set -e a few failing commands were found and have been fixed in this patch. Change-Id: I44cf98dfc80cfcaec54b88cc83be80a3dbf2cec3	2014-04-15 20:53:15 -05:00

Ben Nemec 381ff6ab1d Fix set -eu and pipefail failures

Fixes problems found by set -eu and pipefail, including:
-Many unset variables
-Commands that can fail under normal circumstances, which breaks
with set -e.  This change swallows those expected errors to allow
our existing error code to handle them.
-The dkms element was not finding Fedora kernel versions correctly.
This may be an issue for other distros too, but since Fedora was
working fine without this functionality I only changed it to print
a warning message rather than failing the build when it happens.
-The ramdisk init script will not be set -eu because if it fails
the result is a kernel panic, which can be tricky to debug.
However, in testing with set -e a few failing commands were found
and have been fixed in this patch.

README.md

This is the dkms (Dynamic Kernel Module System) element.

Some distributions such as Fedora and Ubuntu include DKMS in their packaging. In these distros, it is reasonable to include dkms. Other RHEL based derivatives do not include DKMS, so those distros should not use the DKMS element.
