What do you have in mind here?
Once prepare_namespace is gone, there is no userspace code left.
Things that have been bandied about, for example:
- suspend/resume
- partition discovery
I'm sure there is more.
Do you plan to share source files betweek kernel and kinit? Or how is it
harder for external kinit to handle that?
It's a deployment problem, arguably especially for people who
cross-compile. You have two major pieces of code (kernel and klibc)
which have to be changed at the same time, with different maintainers
and reviewers.
