While we already clean a number of things off the ironic-agent
ramdisk, there are a few more significant ones that we should add
to the list.
First is the kernel source. If you're rebuilding your kernel on
the agent ramdisk after the initial image build, then you need to
re-examine your life choices. ;-)
Second is /var/cache. On yum-based distros, this contains a large
number of yum cache files that take up significant space. We don't
really want to be copying around caches when booting a ramdisk
anyway, so cleaning this is the right thing to do regardless.
Third is all *.pyc or *.pyo files. There are a lot of these, so
they eat up significant space and bloat the number of files in the
ramdisk, which makes it take longer to build. the only purpose for
the files is to slightly speed up Python app startup, and we
probably lose more time transferring the files over the network
than we would gain in quicker start times. Note that we were
already trying to remove these, but for some reason I was still
seeing them show up in my final images. It makes more sense to
put them in the same pruning command as all the others anyway.
Fourth is /usr/include. These are files only needed for
compilation. See above for my thoughts on compiling in a ramdisk.
These changes have reduced the agent ramdisk from 391 MB to 333 MB
in my local centos 7 builds, and have reduced the number of files
in the ramdisk by over 18000.

Currently there is no way for a service to become aware that
dhcp-all-interfaces is finished configuring all the interfaces at
boot time. This causes problems for applications like the
ironic-python-agent which scans the interfaces when it first starts as
part of the inspection stage and can race against dhcp-all-interfaces
bringing up the interfaces, leading to inconsistent results.
This patch ensures that the dhcp-all-interfaces script runs before any
network interface is configured and brought up by the rest of the
system, and also ensures that the ironic-agent element also waits for
the network to be online before starting. This is done by using the
network targets provided by systemd.

"ironic-agent" element is currently removing sudo, which breaks other
elements such as devuser. There appears to be no security or other
reason to do this, it's just the way it has always been. Leave sudo
in as it is considered part of the base cloud images.

As motivation for this; we have had two breakouts of dib in recent
memory. One was a failure to unmount through symlinks in the core
code (I335316019ef948758392b03e91f9869102a472b9) and the other was
removing host keys on the build-system
(Ib01d71ff9415a0ae04d963f6e380aab9ac2260ce).
For the most part, dib runs unprivileged. Bits of the core code are
hopefully well tested (modulo bugs like the first one!). We give free
reign inside the chroot (although there is still some potential there
for adverse external affects via bind mounts). Where we could be a
bit safer (and could have prevented at least the second of these
breakouts) is with some better checking that the "sudo" calls
*outside* the chroot at least looked sane.
This adds a basic check that we're using chroot or image paths when
calling sudo in those parts of elements that run *outside* the chroot.
Various files are updated to accomodate this check; mostly by just
ignoring it for existing code (I have not audited these calls).
Nobody is pretending this type of checking makes dib magically safe,
or removes the issues with it needing to do things as root during the
build. But this can help find egregious errors like the key removal.

This commits provides support to add certificate while
building the image using ironic-agent element. The
certificate can be CA certificate or self-signed certificate.
The certificate is set to the environment variable
'DIB_IPA_CERT' which in turn is used by the ironic-agent
element while building the image.

Tgtd starts after OS boots up automatically, listens on the port 3260,
which cause lio fails to bind the same port later.
This patch removes the auto-start script of tgtd.
In IPA service, lio or tgtd would be used to create iscsi target.
If tgtd be chosen, IPA will start tgtd before iscsi setting.
IF lio be chosen, tgtd would keep not running.

Where the base install for the image uses systemd but
the iptables service is not present, the postinstall
script for the ironic-agent element can fail. This is
due to 'systemctl disable iptables.service' returning
an error status when the service isn't present. Check
whether the service is enabled using 'systemctl

This commit adds 'psmisc' and 'dosfstools' to the required
packages for ironic-agent element which in turn
installs ironic-python-agent and ironic-lib.
The ironic-lib requires the fuser command to be executed,
which needs the package 'psmisc'. Similarly mkfs with
'vfat' requires 'dosfstools' package.

As described in the comment, there is a dnf equivalent of this command
that doesn't require us installing yum-utils (which drags in yum on
dnf-only systems such as f23)
This is a small consequence to this -- due to us not installing
yum-utils some installs will now be completely yum free. This causes
a breakage in ironic-agent 99-remove-extra-packages where we remove
the yum package. There is a long-standing bug/feature where missing
packages in a group of packages do not cause yum/dnf to exit with
failure, but uninstalling a single package will. Because we have made
the systems yum-free, the uninstall of yum can fail in this corner
case.
It has always been like this, so I'm in favour of the "ain't broke"
approach. To work-around this, I have just put yum into the existing
list of packages to be cleaned up. I have added a note to the yum
installer taking note of this behaviour for future reference.

I recently built a ramdisk for IPA and was confused by
the fact that the source-repositories name did not
match the element name. (this is a convention,
confusing when they don't match but certainly not
required).
This patch makes it so you can use DIB_REPOREF_ironic_agent to
customize the IPA ramdisk sources when building ramdisks.
For backwards compat if DIB_REPOREF_agent is set it automatically
sets the new DIB_REPOREF_ironic_agent to that value as well.

Previously all files in /root were ignored when building the

This commit change the exclude rule on /root to only ignore the

Change-Id: I2015da889c932a854727235b1e34256a28e9eac6
When a ubuntu/IPA ramdisk is used to boot a baremetal machine with
ironic agent-ilo driver, it fails at the point of mounting /proc
and /sys. After the vmlinuz(kernel) is started and it tries to
load the partitions on ramdisk. It need the directory of "/sys"
and "/proc" to mount the corresponding filesystems.
In order to fix this issue, the directories of "sys" and "proc"
are retained but the subdirectories or files under them are empty.
With this change, the directories of "/sys" and "/proc" shows
up in the ramdisk and kernel will mount sys and proc filesystems
on them respectively.

The ironic-agent element is created using the disk-image-create utility
(even being a ramdisk) and outputs a .vmlinuz file for the kernel
(different than the ramdisk-image-create which outputs a .kernel file
for the kernel). This is inconsistent and make scripting against the
diskimage-builder more complicated if one wants to support different
types of ramdisk.
This patch creates a hard link for the .vmlinuz file to a .kernel file
at the end of the process (to keep backward compatibility) and print a
deprecation message.
