This patch proposes to make init failures more explicit. Before this, the "No init found" message didn't help much. It could sometimes be misleading and actually mean "No *working* init found". This message could hide many different issues: - no init program candidates found at all - some init program candidates exist but can't be executed (missing execute permissions, failed to load shared libraries, executable compiled for an unknown architecture...) This patch notifies the kernel user when a candidate init program is found but can't be executed. In each failure situation, the error code is displayed, to quickly find the root cause. "No init found" is also replaced by "No working init found", which is more correct. This will help embedded Linux developers (especially the newcomers), regularly making and debugging new root filesystems.
