| 2020-09-01 | Revert "system: image: Do not offload image files."...This reverts commit 6a9581741e4ee81226aeb2f1c997df76670a6aab, which is
obsoleted by the previous commit.
| Maxim Cournoyer |
| 2020-08-31 | guix: system: Add `--label' option....* guix/scripts/system.scm (%options): Add `--label'.
(system-derivation-for-action): Take a #:label key to set volume ID.
(perform-action): Take a #:label key.
(%default-options): Add default label value.
(process-action): Pass label value from command-line to perform-action.
* gnu/system/image.scm (image-with-label): New procedure.

| 2020-08-26 | system: image: Do not offload image files....Image files can be very large (multiple gigabytes), and the process of
generating them is primarily I/O bound. As disk access is typically faster
than network access, it makes sense build them locally.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Pass the #:local-build? #t
parameter to computed-file calls dealing with generating image files.
(system-iso9660-image): Likewise.

| 2020-08-25 | Remove "guile-zlib" extension when unused....This is a follow-up of 755f365b02b42a5d1e8ef3000dadef069553a478.
As (zlib) is autoloaded in (gnu build linux-modules), "guile-zlib" is needed
as an extension only when it is effectively used.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Remove "guile-zlib" from the extensions.
* gnu/machine/ssh.scm (machine-check-initrd-modules): Ditto.
* gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Ditto.
* gnu/services/base.scm (default-serial-port): Ditto,
(agetty-shepherd-service): ditto,
(udev-service-type): ditto.
* gnu/system/image.scm (gcrypt-sqlite3&co): Ditto.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-shepherd-service): Ditto.

| 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,
(strip-extension): new procedure,
(dot-ko): adapt to support compression,
(ensure-dot-ko): ditto,
(file-name->module-name): ditto,
(find-module-file): ditto,
(load-linux-module*): ditto,
(module-name->file-name/guess): ditto,
(module-name-lookup): ditto,
(write-module-name-database): ditto,
(write-module-alias-database): ditto,
(write-module-device-database): ditto.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add "guile-zlib" to the extensions.
* gnu/machine/ssh.scm (machine-check-initrd-modules): Ditto.
* gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Ditto.
* gnu/services/base.scm (default-serial-port): Ditto,
(agetty-shepherd-service): ditto,
(udev-service-type): ditto.
* gnu/system/image.scm (gcrypt-sqlite3&co): Ditto.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (flat-linux-module-directory): Add "guile-zlib"
to the extensions and make sure that the initrd only contains
uncompressed module files.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-shepherd-service): Add "guile-zlib" to the
extensions.
* guix/profiles.scm (linux-module-database): Ditto.

| 2020-06-26 | system: image: Fix disk-image name....This is a follow-up of 5980ec8ada5ede54bde6558c7ab8bf492bc70f85.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): When using the image name, convert
it to string first.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-26 | system: image: Use the image name as the disk-image derivation name....* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Use the image name as disk-image
derivation name, if defined. Otherwise use the generic "disk-image" name.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-25 | image: hurd: Initialize root partition for the Hurd....This is a follow-up to commit b904b59ce592c89dfb4675a8c06757afed6738a0.
* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): Move to ...
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): ... here.
(hurd-disk-image): Use it.
| Jan (janneke) Nieuwenhuizen |
| 2020-06-24 | system: image: Enable compression on ISO9660 images....ISO9660 image compression was temporarily disabled to speed-up tests of the
new image API. Enable it again.
* gnu/system/image.scm (iso9660-image)[compression]: Enable it.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-24 | image: Move hurd image definition to a dedicated file....This moves hurd-disk-image to a dedicated file. It also defines a default
operating-system so that the image can be built standalone.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm: New file,
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): add it,
* gnu/system/image.scm (root-offset, root-label): Export it,
(hurd-disk-image): remove it as this is now defined in the new, Hurd dedicated
file above,
(find-image): adapt to avoid loop dependency.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-23 | system: image: Remove fakeroot dependencies....Since c29bb909d241e7215e574e93d9799e701cbc6ddb, fakeroot "sed" and "coreutils"
dependencies are now explicit.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Remove "sed" and "coreutils" from
inputs.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 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.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-22 | system: image: Remove "image-root" derivation when building ISO....The "image-root" derivation output is used as a temporary directory that is
passed to GNU Xorriso later on. By merging the creation of this directory and
the production of an ISO image, we can get rid of the derivation.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-iso9660-image): Merge "image-root" and
"iso9660-image" derivations so that we spare an extra derivation.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-14 | system: image: Make sure target is set....* gnu/system/image.scm (system-image): Move "with-parameters" call so that it
encapsulates "operating-system-bootcfg".
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-14 | system: image: Remove left-over....* gnu/system/image.scm: Remove a left-over since maybe-with-target procedure
was removed.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-13 | image: Remove 'maybe-with-target'....* gnu/system/image.scm (maybe-with-target): Remove,
(system-image): adapt accordingly.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-13 | image: Add 'target' support....* gnu/image.scm (<image>)[target]: New field,
(image-target): new public method.
* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-disk-image): Set "i586-pc-gnu" as image 'target'
field,
(maybe-with-target): new procedure,
(system-image): honor image 'target' field using the above procedure.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-13 | image: Make 'find-image' non-monadic....* gnu/system/image.scm (find-image): Make non-monadic. Add 'target'
parameter.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Update caller,
passing (%current-target-system).
* guix/scripts/system.scm (perform-action): Likewise.
| Jan (janneke) Nieuwenhuizen |
| 2020-06-12 | system: image: Do not produce an HFS tree when building an ISO....Use "mbr_only" mode to make sure that no HFS+ tree are generated.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-image): Set MKRESCUE_SED_MODE to "mbr_only".
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-06-08 | hurd-boot: Further cleanup of "rc"....* gnu/packages/hurd.scm (hurd-rc-script): Move implementation to ...
* gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (boot-hurd-system): ...here, new file.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (make-hurd-device-nodes): Move there likewise.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add it.
| Jan (janneke) Nieuwenhuizen |
| 2020-06-08 | image: Add Hurd support....* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-disk-image): New exported variable,
(root-offset, root-label): new variables,
(esp-partition, root-partition): adapt accordingly,
(find-image): add Hurd support.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-29 | image: Do not use VM to create disk-images....Now that installing Grub on raw disk-images is supported, we do not need to
rely on (gnu system vm) module.
* gnu/system/image.scm (make-system-image): Rename to ...
(system-image): ... this, and remove the compatibility wrapper.
(find-image): Turn to a monadic procedure. This will become useful when
introducing Hurd support, to be able to detect the target system.
* gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Use lower-object now that system-image returns a
file-like object.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Add a 'base-image'
argument,
(perform-action): adapt accordingly.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-29 | image: Add a post-MBR gap to the default image....The generic 'efi-disk-image' needs to be bootable on systems without EFI. To
do that, GRUB is installed in the post-MBR gap. Make sure that the first
partition starts with an offset, to make this gap large enough for GRUB.
* gnu/system/image.scm (root-offset, root-label): New variables,
(esp-partition): use 'root-offset' as the partition offset,
(root-partition): use 'root-label' as the partition label.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-29 | system: image: Fix image-with-os....* gnu/system/image.scm (image-with-os): Do not reorder partitions, as we want
them to be created according to definition order.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-29 | image: Use grub-efi to install the EFI bootloader....* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-efi-partition): Rename bootloader-package
argument to grub-efi.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Adapt accordingly to pass
grub-efi package.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-29 | system: image: Correct genimage configuration file indentation....* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Fix genimage configuration file
indentation.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-29 | image: Add bootloader installation support....* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): Add bootloader-package and
bootloader-installer arguments. Run the bootloader-installer if defined.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Adapt the partition initializer
call accordingly.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-29 | bootloader: Add 'disk-image-installer'....* gnu/bootloader.scm (<bootloader>)[disk-image-installer]: New field,
(bootloader-disk-image-installer): export it.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (install-grub-disk-image): New procedure ...
(grub-bootloader): ... used as "disk-image-installer" here.
(grub-efi-bootloader): set "disk-image-installer" to #f.
* gnu/system/image.scm (root-partition?, find-root-partition): Move to
"Helpers" section.
(root-partition-index): New procedure.
(system-disk-image): Honor disk-image-installer, and
use it to install the bootloader directly on the disk-image, if supported.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-26 | image: Add partition file-system options support....* gnu/image.scm (<partition>)[file-system-options]: New field,
(partition-file-system-options): new exported procedure.
* gnu/system/image.scm (partition->gexp): Adapt accordingly.
* gnu/build/image.scm (sexp->partition): Also adapt accordingly,
(make-ext-image): and pass file-system options to mke2fs.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-26 | image: Set offset default to zero....* gnu/image.scm (<partition>)[offset]: Set to zero by default.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Adapt accordingly.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-26 | system: image: Fix disk-image cross-compilation....* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Use the native version of the
helper packages (e2fsprogs, dosfstools, mtools, genimage, coreutils and
findutils).
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-26 | image: Add partition offset support....* gnu/image.scm (partition-offset): New procedure,
(<partition>)[offset]: new field.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Apply the partition offset.
| 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.
* gnu/image.scm: New file.
* gnu/system/image.scm: New file.
* gnu/build/image: New file.
* gnu/local.mk: Add them.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image): Rename to system-disk-image-in-vm.
* gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Adapt to new API.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Ditto.
