Jonathan Liu ea647cd9ee base-files: add /run directory from FHS 3 draft specification

This adds the /run directory from the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard 3.0
Draft [1] and refactors the filesystem as follows:
- Remove creation of /var/volatile/run
- Remove creation of /var/volatile/lock
- Remove symbolic link from /var/run to /var/volatile/run
- Remove symbolic link from /var/lock to /var/volatile/lock
- Add symbolic link from /var/run to /run
- Add symbolic link from /var/lock -> /run/lock
- Add /run to /etc/fstab for sysvinit compatibility

Raw Blame History

This configuration file lists filesystem objects that should get verified

during startup and be created if missing.

Every line must either be a comment starting with

or a definition of format:

where the items are separated by whitespace !

: d|f|l : (d)irectory|(f)ile|(l)ink

A linking example:

l root root 0777 /var/test /tmp/testfile

f root root 0644 /var/test none

Understanding links:

When populate-volatile is to verify/create a directory or file, it will first

check it's existence. If a link is found to exist in the place of the target,

the path of the target is replaced with the target the link points to.

Thus, if a link is in the place to be verified, the object will be created

in the place the link points to instead.

This explains the order of "link before object" as in the example above, where

a link will be created at /var/test pointing to /tmp/testfile and due to this

link the file defined as /var/test will actually be created as /tmp/testfile.

d root root 1777 /run/lock none d root root 0755 /var/volatile/log none d root root 1777 /var/volatile/tmp none l root root 1777 /var/lock /run/lock l root root 0755 /var/log /var/volatile/log l root root 0755 /var/run /run l root root 1777 /var/tmp /var/volatile/tmp l root root 1777 /tmp /var/tmp d root root 0755 /var/lock/subsys none f root root 0664 /var/log/wtmp none f root root 0664 /var/run/utmp none l root root 0644 /etc/resolv.conf /var/run/resolv.conf f root root 0644 /var/run/resolv.conf none
