For Intel VROC RAID, mdadm needs initramfs to mount efivarfs instead. [1] The commit: commit 0f5b2c69a4cbe4166ca24b76d5ada98ed2867741 Author: Ard Biesheuvel <a...@kernel.org> Date: Mon Jun 20 13:34:03 2022 +0200 efi: vars: Remove deprecated 'efivars' sysfs interface [ Test Plan ] 1. Install initramfs-tools 2. update-initramfs -u 3. unmkinitramfs initrd.img-`uname -r` /tmp/extract-initramfs 4. Check if boot script 00_mount_efivarfs exists in directory /tmp/extract-initramfs/main/scripts/init-top/ 5. Check /tmp/extract-initramfs/main/scripts/init-top/ORDER if the boot script 00_mount_efivarfs will be execute before udev. [ Where problems could occur ] Not sure if there any other tools/utilities also need to mount efivarfs as early as mdadm but the probability of file conflict should be very low. Also, there are no impact mounting efivarfs multiple times. mount: /sys/firmware/efi/efivars: efivarfs already mounted on /sys/firmware/efi/efivars.
