  • initramfs-tools (0.140ubuntu13.5) jammy; urgency=medium
    
      * Fix configuring BOOTIF when using iSCSI (LP: #2056187)
      * Backport autopkgtest improvements from version 0.142ubuntu23 to run the
        test on all architectures and to check more results from qemu-net

  • initramfs-tools (0.140ubuntu13.4) jammy; urgency=medium
    
      * hook-functions: add stusb160x kernel module for Tegra IGX (LP: #2027636)
    
    initramfs-tools (0.140ubuntu13.3) jammy; urgency=medium
    
      [ Loïc Minier ]
      * Include kernel/drivers/usb/typec/ucsi with MODULES=most along with other
        USB storage drivers; LP: #2027636.
    
      [ Benjamin Drung ]
      * Port the net autopkgtest to the common test framework. This drops
        depending on downloading a cloud image from the Internet and reduces
        the execution time from 3:19 min down to 0:57 min. (LP: #2027575)

        modules (LP: #1981385)

      * Lower the compression levels for zstd and lz4 (LP: #1958148)
        Following the discussion on the mailing list, we have reached
        a conclusion to lower the default compression levels:
        - For lz4, the compression level is lowered to 2 from 9
        - For zstd, the compression level is lowered to 1 from 19

      * Force copy pthread and libgcc_s libraries via a stub binary.
    
        To avoid circular shared library dependencies between compiler and
        libc, libpthreads chooses to dlopen libgcc_s, instead of linking
        against it. However, we have no way to parse/know what it
        needs. And even when we hardcode to include libgcc_s1, we don't
        have a way to know which libgcc_s1 is needed on a given system and
        from which path to include it. But there is a hook-function to
        copy a binary and all of its shared library dependencies. Thus
        create a stub empty executable, with shared linking against
        pthreads and gcc_s1 and always include it in the initrd. This way
        at initrd creation time, ldd is used to correctly resolve these
        shared library dependencies and correctly copy them into the
        initrd. This removes hardcoding paths as to where these libraries
        must be copied from on the host. LP: #1958594 LP: #1880853
    
      * For net boot include most of net/usb modules, except niche modems. LP:
        #1950996
    
      * Cherry-pick updated merge request !26 to support xz compressed
        firmware. Uncompressed firmware is preffered, with a fallback to use
        compressed firmware files. LP: #1942260
    
      * Cherry-pick updated merge request !51 to decompress compressed kernel
        modules for boot speed performance. LP: #1932329
