| 2020-09-29 | services: secret-service: Add initial client/server handshake....This allows the client running on the host to know when it's actually
connect to the server running in the guest. Failing that, the client
would connect right away to QEMU and send secrets even though the server
is not running yet in the guest, which is unreliable.
* gnu/build/secret-service.scm (secret-service-send-secrets): Add
#:handshake-timeout. Read from SOCK an initial message from the
server. Return #f on error.
(secret-service-receive-secrets): Send 'secret-service-server' message
to the client. Close SOCK upon timeout.
* gnu/services/virtualization.scm (hurd-vm-shepherd-service): 'start'
method returns #f when 'secret-service-send-secrets' returns #f.

| 2020-09-29 | secret-service: Fix file port leak in 'secret-service-send-secrets'....* gnu/build/secret-service.scm (secret-service-send-secrets): Use
'call-with-input-file' instead of 'open-input-file'.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2020-09-29 | secret-service: Add a timeout when waiting for a client....* gnu/build/secret-service.scm (secret-service-receive-secrets)
[wait-for-client]: Call 'select' with a 60s timeout before 'accept'.
Return #f upon timeout.
[read-secrets]: Return FILES on success.
Adjust caller of 'wait-for-client' to handle #f.

| 2020-09-29 | image: Add support for compressed-qcow2 format....* gnu/build/image.scm (convert-disk-image): New procedure.
(genimage): Remove target argument.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Add support for 'compressed-qcow2
image format. Call "convert-disk-image" to apply image conversions on the
final image. Add "qemu-minimal" to the build inputs.
(system-image): Also add support for 'compressed-qcow2.

| 2020-09-21 | build: shepherd: Check for container support....Fixes: <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/43533>.
* gnu/build/shepherd.scm (fork+exec-command/container): Check if containers
are supported before joining PID namespaces.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-09-10 | build: linux-container: Fix run-container....This is a follow-up of 5316dfc0f125b658e4a2acf7f00f49501663d943. Some users of
run-container may expect that the container is jailed, even if there are no
mounts. This is the case for some Guix tests.
* gnu/build/linux-container.scm (run-container): Do not jail the container
when the requested root is "/".

nfs-root "device" strings.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (canonicalize-device-spec): Support nfs-root
"device" strings.
* gnu/machine/ssh.scm (machine-check-file-system-availability): Avoid
checking of NFS file systems.
* gnu/system.scm (read-boot-parameters, device-sexp->device): Support
nfs-root "device" strings.

| 2020-09-02 | installer: Run the installation inside a container....When the store overlay is mounted, other processes such as kmscon, udev
and guix-daemon may open files from the store, preventing the
underlying install support from being umounted. See:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2018-12/msg00161.html.
To avoid this situation, mount the store overlay inside a container,
and run the installation from within that container.
* gnu/build/shepherd.scm (fork+exec-command/container): New procedure.
* gnu/services/base.scm (guix-shepherd-service): Support an optional PID
argument passed to the "start" method. If that argument is passed, ensure that
guix-daemon enters the given PID MNT namespace by using
fork+exec-command/container procedure.
* gnu/installer/final.scm (umount-cow-store): Remove it,
(install-system): run the installation from within a container.
* gnu/installer/newt/final.scm (run-install-shell): Remove the display hack.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-09-02 | linux-container: Do not jail the container unconditionally....We may want to run a container inside the MNT namespace, without jailing the
container. If RUN-CONTAINER is passed a null MOUNTS list, do not jail the
container.
* gnu/build/linux-container.scm (run-container): Do not call
MOUNT-FILE-SYSTEMS if MOUNTS list is empty.
| Mathieu Othacehe |

install) to (gnu build install), so that it can be called from within a
different context than Shepherd.

| 2020-08-25 | linux-libre: Support module compression....This commit adds support for GZIP compression for linux-libre kernel
modules. The initrd modules are kept uncompressed as the initrd is already
compressed as a whole.
The linux-libre kernel also supports XZ compression, but as Guix does not have
any available bindings for now, and the compression time is far more
significant, GZIP seems to be a better option.
* gnu/build/linux-modules.scm (modinfo-section-contents): Use
'call-with-gzip-input-port' to read from a module file using '.gz' extension,

| Jan (janneke) Nieuwenhuizen |
| 2020-06-22 | system: image: Remove "image-root" when building raw disk-images....The "image-root" derivation output is used as a temporary directory that is
passed to mke2fs and mkdosfs later on. By merging the creation of this
directory and the production of partition images, we can get rid of the
derivation.
As mke2fs and mkdosfs are not able to override file permissions, call those
commands with fakeroot. This way, all the image files will be owned by root,
even if image generation is done in an unprivilegded context.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Merge "image-root" and
"iso9660-image" derivations so that we spare an extra derivation. Also add
"fakeroot" and its runtime dependencies to the inputs.
* gnu/build/image.scm (make-ext-image, make-vfat-image): Make sure that mke2fs
and mkdosfs are respectively called by fakeroot.

| 2020-06-12 | shepherd: Unblock signals in the child process....Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/41791>.
Reported by Tobias Geerinckx-Rice <me@tobias.gr>.
This change mirrors changes made in the Shepherd 0.8.1, where signals
are blocked in the shepherd process in support of 'signalfd'. The
regression was introduced with the switch to 0.8.1 in
3f9c62d1a8b345909adaeb22f454ad22554c55a1: child processes would not
receive SIGTERM upon 'herd stop SERVICE'.

| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-05 | image: Add a new API....Raw disk-images and ISO9660 images are created in a Qemu virtual machine. This
is quite fragile, very slow, and almost unusable without KVM.
For all these reasons, add support for host image generation. This implies the
use new image generation mechanisms.
- Raw disk images: images of partitions are created using tools such as mke2fs
and mkdosfs depending on the partition file-system type. The partition
images are then assembled into a final image using genimage.
- ISO9660 images: the ISO root directory is populated within the store. GNU
xorriso is then called on that directory, in the exact same way as this is
done in (gnu build vm) module.
Those mechanisms are built upon the new (gnu image) module.
