  <description>
The dracut initramfs generation tool was updated to fix several bugs:

- Hooks were added for regenerating the initrd after updating this package,
  for both the main package and the fips subpackage. (bsc#916348)

- For FIPS usage, aesni-intel.ko is put into the initrd for selftests on powerup. (bsc#914126)

- Allow feeding host randomness into the ramdisk of a kvm based guest via
  the virtio_rng device (bsc#918238)

- Fixed "bad array subscript" messages when adding kernel modules using
  "/etc/dracut.conf". (bsc#911660)

- Enabled Warning for failed kernel modules per default (bsc#886839)

- 98systemd/rootfs-generator: Use builtins instead of 'grep' (bsc#897252)

- Log dracut command line during boot process.

- Follow symbolic links for kernel arguments (bsc#902375)

- Parse rootflags correctly (bsc#912734)

- 90multipath: start multipathd after udev (bsc#903001)
