11142f75b4 Allow specification of filesystem journal size
In many cases, the statically sized 64MB journal is far below the
e2fstools default calculation[0] which calls for a 64MB journal only
on filesystems smaller than 16GB. On bare metal in particular, the
correct default journal size will often be in the 512MB-1GB range.

Since we cannot know what the target system is, this should be a
tunable parameter that the user can set depending on the intended
image usage.

Add a DIB_JOURNAL_SIZE envvar and --mkfs-journal-size parameter
to the image creation so users can override the default journal
size.

8ec3750dda simple-init: allow for NetworkManager support
This plumbs through an "--use-nm" flag to glean which instructs it to
setup interface bringup with NetworkManager rather than legacy network
enablement scripts.

In this case, install the NetworkManager package.  In the non-nm case,
also install the network-scripts for Fedora 29 -- this has stopped
being installed by default (it's been deprecated since forever).

As noted in the docs, this is currently really only relevant on the
supported rpm distros which are using the ifcfg-rh NetworkManager
plugin to effectively re-use old config files.  However,
NetworkManager has similar plugins for other platforms, so support can
be expanded if changes are proposed.

86d5534352 Turn on quiet mode when logfile specified
I'm not really sure why I originally had --logfile also log to stdout
in I202e1cb200bde17f6d7770cf1e2710bbf4cca64c, but it seem
counter-intuitive (indeed, I just tripped myself up thinking that in a
devstack job "--logfile" would put the logs into a separate file and
avoid the stdout logging, and I wrote it!).

Make it so specifying a --logfile puts dib into quiet mode for stdout.
Explicitly overriding DIB_QUIET will allow both if someone wants that.

Add a post-root.d phase
While trying to get docker image pre-caching to work we couldn't get a
docker daeomon to run within the chrooted environment. However we got
docker running with the help of bwrap outside of the chrooted
environment. The only option so far for this is the block-device.d
phase. But this has the problem that it runs after the image size has
been calculated. This leads to broken builds if the docker images
being pulled are big.

This can be solved by adding a post-root.d phase that runs outside the
chroot but before the image size calculation.

fadf99af05 Add a pre-finalise.d phase
In exploring Gentoo caching, it was realised that we have no way to
bind mount the cache into the finalised image for the finalise.d
phases.

By adding a pre-finalise.d phase that runs outside the chroot, we can
mount outside things into the hierarchy at $TMP_BUILD_DIR/mnt which
are then seen by the in-chroot finalise.d phase.

This is similar to the pre-install phase

f6a2452d4c Only append DIB_BOOTLOADER_DEFAULT_CMDLINE to default grub entry
The grub.cfg has two variables [1]

 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX : used on all boots
 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT : additionally used on all "normal" boots

The problem with I2298675dda1f699c572b3423e7274bc8bd7c1c9d is that it
appened the values in DIB_BOOTLOADER_DEFAULT_CMDLINE to both of these,
resulting in duplicated arguments.  I don't think we considered that
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT actually already appends to the
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX values.

Make DIB_BOOTLOADER_DEFAULT_CMDLINE only append itself to
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT.  That seems to line up sensibly with the
name of the variable.

Documentation is enhanced around this, and a releasenote added.

55b479b54f GPT partitioning support
This adds support for a GPT label type to the partitioning code.  This
is relatively straight-forward translation of the partition config
into a sgparted command-line and subsequent call.

A unit test is added based on a working GPT/EFI configuration and the
fedora-minimal functional test is updated to build a single-partition
GPT based using the new block-device-gpt override element.  See notes
in the sample configuration files about partition requirements and
types.

Documentation has been updated.

3457d2f8e8 Remove DIB_[DISTRO]_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR
We added the DIB_distro_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR arguments with
I92964b17ec3e47cf97e3a3091f054b2a205ac768 as a way that we could
source a list of mirrors and then have the distro elements choose
which one applied to them.

However, this hasn't worked out to be so useful.  The
openstack-ci-mirrors element is working as a mirror setup script -- it
translates the openstack CI mirror list variables into the generic
"DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR" as appropriate for each distro's build.
Also, it turns out there's other things that need to be done, such as
turning off gpg checking, which mean the idea of "just export
variables" hasn't turned out as valid ... you need actual code
involved to get it right.

AFAICT we never actually documented these, and they do not seem to be
in use.  They have caused considerable confusion when dealing with new
platforms as we try to keep consistency.  Remove them.

a00d02f6a1 Remove centos and rhel elements
Several people have popped up in IRC recently with failures in these
elements.  Without Python 2.7 available in the image they are
unsupported (OpenStack hasn't supported it for a long time).  Remove
these to avoid further confusion.

The centos/centos7 DISTRO split that has happened with centos-minimal
is unfortunate but I don't think it helps to rename centos7/rhel7 ATM.
To summarise; DISTRO=centos7 means image based build,
DISTRO=centos && DIB_RELEASE=7 means the minimal build.

In the future, I think it is important that the minimal builds and
image builds set the same DISTRO.  This reflects that "upper" layers
shouldn't care about the exact building of the lower layers.  I see
CentOS 8 going one of two ways

1) the changes are so significant, we start separate centos8 /
centos8-minimal elements.  They both set DISTRO=centos8 (and
DIB_RELEASE to point-release maybe?).  This means we have to update
all "if DISTRO == centos || DISTRO == centos7" branches to also check
for "centos8".  Evenually (!)  "centos" goes away for versioned DISTRO
only

2) we restore centos element with DISTRO=centos and DIB_RELEASE=8, and
centos-minimal remains the same.  This means we have to audit all "if
DISTRO == centos" calls to make sure they're appropriate for version 8
(stick a "&& DIB_RELEASE=7" on them all basically).

I'm not sure we can fully decide until we start to see excatly how the
distro switching/matching bits look, but (2) is consistent with Ubuntu
and probably the preferred solution.

Some "rhel" parts have been cleaned up.  More could be done in
rhel-common, but given our lack of coverage of that I'd prefer to
leave it for now.

f60dd38482 Add timestamp output filter
This adds a devstack-inspired output filter to standardise
timestamping.

Currently, python tools timestamp always (timestamp setup in
logging_config.py) but all the surrounding bash does not.

We have extra timestamps added in run_functests.sh for our own
purposes to get the bash timestamps; but this ends up giving us
double-timestamps for the python bits.  Additionally, callers such as
nodepool capture our output and put their own timestamps on it, and
again have the double-timestamps.

This uses a lightly modified outfilter.py from devstack to standardise
this.

All output is run through this filter, which will timestamp it.  I
have removed the places where we double-timestamp -- logging_config.py
and the prefix in dib-run-parts.

An env option is added to turn timestamps off completely (does not
seem worth taking up a command-line option for).  For callers like
nodepool, they can set this and will just have their own timestamps as
they collect the lines.

Since all logging is going through outfilter, it's easy to add a
--logfile option.  I think this will be quite handy; personally I'm
always redirecting dib runs to files for debugging.

I've also added a "quiet" option.  I think this could be useful in
run_tests.sh if we were to start logging the output of each test to
individual files.  This would be much easier to deal with than the
very large log files we get (especially if we wanted to turn on
parallel running...)

6802cf7100 Run dib-run-parts out of /tmp
The dib-run-parts element was copying our internal version of
dib-run-parts into /usr/local/bin to be used running scripts inside
the target chroot.  However, it never cleaned up after itself.  This
means all images were left with an unmanaged local install of
dib-run-parts.

This copies dib-run-parts into the hooks directory of the chroot and
runs it from there.  It is cleaned up automatically on the exit path.

The dib-run-parts element is no longer required and it has been
removed from all dependencies.  It is left with a deprecation notice
in the README.  For compatability we convert it to simply install
dib-utils.

Codesearch shows no users depending on this unintentional implicit
install.  Note os-refresh-config depends on dib-utils and thus will
have an explicitly installed version.

fd424757a6 Don't provide dib-run-parts
It was an oversight during v2 development for dib to start providing
dib-run-parts.  The intention was for dib to use a vendored
dib-run-parts directly from $_LIB and have no dependencies on
dib-utils at all.  By exporting dib-run-parts, we created an
unintentional conflict with the dib-utils package which provides the
same script.

Tools that depend on dib-utils are unaffected by this
(os-refresh-config).

The only tool that installs diskimage-builder and then assumes
dib-run-parts is available in the path is instack.  I have proposed
Ibfe972208df40fa092b11b5419043524c903f1b4 to modify that to use our
internal version.

fdd2c4b236 Semi-automatic doc generation of element dependency
Currently there is no description of dependencies in the generated
documentation of the elements: therefore a user of an element does not
know which other elements are automatically included and e.g. which
configuration options are available. In addition there are some
copy&pastes of parts of the README.rst scattered thought different
Ubuntu and Debian specific elements.

This patch adds a semi-automatic generation of dependency information
of all elements.  Nevertheless these are not automatically included.
The author of the element's README.rst can decide if and where the
dependency information should appear and can use the descriptor

.. element_deps::

for this.

This patch adds the dependency information for some Debian and
Ubuntu patches - and creates the base for later removing the
duplicated parts.

A call is added to element_dependencies._find_all_elements() to
populate reverse dependencies for Element objects.

ec7f56c1b2 Refactor: block-device handling (partitioning)
During the creation of a disk image (e.g. for a VM), there is the need
to create, setup, configure and afterwards detach some kind of storage
where the newly installed OS can be copied to or directly installed
in.

This patch implements partitioning handling.

022d93ee82 Unify tidy up logs in lib/img-functions
Cleaning logs was split, some was done in the
img-functions.finalise_base, some was done in the base element.
The version unifies tidy up logs in the lib/img-functions.
Especially when building docker container images the base element
cannot be used. This patch removes about some hundreds KB of
useless logs in cases when the base element is not used.

4585955a8b Remove yum chroot caching
Every run we are doing a full tar.gz of the chroot environment that
never gets used.

It's not suitable for CI since we use fresh images each time there.

The cache in general isn't really isn't a very safe thing to have
around, because there's no invalidation procedure and no real way to
make one -- we've no guarantee that a new chroot build even moments
after a previous one wouldn't bring in or different packages, etc (of
course this is *unlikely*, but the longer you go between builds the
worse the problem becomes.  Also, tons of packages get installed after
this not from any cache, so potential speed-up is rather marginal.

Debian turned this off with I58fc485aacacaa17243bf9ce760ed91256d1f182.
However, given the reasons above and it's complete lack of testing, I
don't see this as useful.

If we really want this type of thing, I think we should come up with a
way to use a persistent external yum/dnf cache that yum/dnf keeps in
sync with it's usual invalidation rules.

61087d33e9 Set grub timeout default
Set the grub timeout to 5 seconds by default, and add notes on how to
update this.  This will stop infra having to carry an element that
goes and rewrites the grub configuration.
