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.

The code in mkfs correctly extends the command line with a '-n' for
vfat but does not currently do it for fat. This means that mkfs for
fat ends up with a '-L' which is what you'd do for everything like
ext[234].
The change just treats fat like vfat in the one place where this check
is required.

The purpose of the openSUSE element is to build openSUSE distribution
based images, so an additional community repo shouldn't be pulled into
the image. In addition the dkms dependency is blacklisted for SUSE
in the dkms element anyway, so this should be a noop.

On Power systems console should be added the kernel command line
in the following order: 'console=tty0 console=hvc0'.
The first one is the graphical console. The last one is the serial
console. The kernel enables all the consoles pointed through the
kernel command line. However, only the last one will receive
input/output during kernel boot. All the other consoles will be
enabled after the boot.

We replace the base resolv.conf with an "outside" copy so that
resolving works when we're in the chroot.
Installing resolvconf package modifies the in-chroot resolv.conf to a
symlink (to /var/run) which it wants maintained in the final image.
We have the existing "immutable" check for a created resolv.conf file,
but no eqivalent for a symlink.
This adds a check to see if the resolv.conf is a symlink and leave it
alone if it is, assuming it has been re-created in the chroot.
I have tested this with ubuntu-minimal+resolvconf with
dhcp-all-interfaces and the system seems to work with resolvconf
working correctly.

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.

The image download tests have long been too unreliable for the gate.
We need to cache the base images similar to how devstack caches it's
testing images. Let's move them to non-voting jobs for the time
being.
This means that the gate jobs are now all based on "-minimal" and are
using infra mirrors. Unfortunately, there is still some unreliability
because we currently have issues with infra mirrors being very slow
after AFS updates, leading to job timeouts. But we're on the right
path...
Also, I noticed we don't have tests of the "ubuntu" image-download
based tests, which were tacitly being tested by apt-sources before we
moved that to -minimal. Add simple tests for these.

I'm uncertain as to why this is using the "fedora" element for testing
... but it requires downloading the fedora .qcow on every test which
has shown to be unreliable. An easy thing to do is to switch it to
fedora-minimal; that will only involve downloads from local mirrors in
the gate.
Add redhat-rpm-config for minimal. I admit I have not fully gone
through why this is not pulled in. It's been an issue since
I459f2203fa145049dda185da952813118193d573 and there's all sorts of

fedora/centos-minimal don't obey DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR currently. I
don't really want them too -- we want to be able to separate the
mirrors used during the build process from those embedded into the
final image. Add DIB_YUM_MINIMAL_BOOTSTRAP_REPOS which is a directory
with repo files to use during the install.
This introduces setup-gate-mirrors.sh which is intended to setup
repo/sources/whatever files in the openstack gate that point to the
local region mirror. It pulls the info from the mirror_info.sh script
on each CI node.
The openstack-ci-mirrors element is updated to export these variables.

This adds "openstack-ci-mirrors" element which performs various
settings to get builds using local mirrors. As a first step, we
convert ubuntu-minimal jobs
The main trick is that since infra mirrors are created with rerepo
they are not signed (they are recreated, not cloned, and not signing
is seen as a feature in that it deters external use). So we need to
instruct debootstrap to ignore signing and also turn it off for
in-chroot apt. Other than that, the existing DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR
works to redirect installs.
Remove "restricted" as it's not mirrored, and I don't think we want it
in here by default.
(I think DIB_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR is a bit of an anti-pattern, because
it leaves the mirrors in the final image -- just because you use them
to build, doesn't mean you want them at runtime). But we don't need
to fix that now, and we don't use any created images.)
This pauses fedora testing until the next change, which moves to using
local mirrors for testing on fedora/centos

The gate is currently extremley unstable, and these two issues are
causing most of the problems. We need to commit them atomically so we
can get anything moving again
---
The gate is very unstable downloading the ubuntu tarballs from
upstream at the moment. Move this to ubuntu-minimal which, in a later
change will source files from our local mirror.
We need a caching mechanism for these large files to avoid this
instability. This is future work for the various image-based jobs.

Move debian to default skip lists
I don't know if it's mirrors being worked hard for the Stretch
release, but this is constantly failing the gate. I will move this to
the -nv extras job
I am working on having the voting job use local mirrors for
everything. Unfortunately debian infra mirrors don't have stretch yet
and we need to do some fiddling to get "stable" available. Once we
have all this, we can consider making it voting again.

We introduced the "settle" in
I90103b59357edebbac7a641e8980cb282d37561b thinking that maybe kpartx
had not finished writing the partition. This probably wasn't a bad
first assumption, since we used to have this -- but is seems
insufficient.
The other failiure here seems to be if kpartx hasn't actually seen the
updated partition table in the image, so it has correctly (in it's
mind) not mounted the partition.
Looking at strace of fdisk run manually on a loopback, it will do a
fsync on the raw device after writing and then a global sync as it
exits.
This replicates this; we flush and fsync in mbr.py in the exit handler
after writing the partition, before closing the file (i've updated one
of the unit tests to double-check the call). In the partitioning.py
caller we execute a sync call too.
Since it does seem unlikely the "-s" option of kpartx is not working,
I've removed the udev settle work-around too.

Partial-Bug: #1698337
Debian Stretch released as stable recently, and the init system is
less tightly specified in the base dependencies (for some info, see
[1]). It seems, probably unintentionally, that in the previous
release systemd-sysv was brought in by debootstrap, but that is no
longer happening.
Add systemd as an early dependency of debian-minimal.
Remove the package-installs.yaml as that happens too late (other
things need to know the init system to write out service files, etc
and probe for systemd utils before package-installs). As mentioned, I
do not believe the "only install systemd on testing" idea was actually
working here, because it was being brought in during the initial
debootstrap.
Update some documentation to explain what's going on

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...)

Using the newly exposed variables from the prior change, install the
ppc bootloader to the boot partition, not the underlying loopback
device.
Change-Id: I0918e8df8797d6dbabf7af618989ab7f79ee9580
Currently we only export "image-block-device" which is the loopback
device (/dev/loopX) for the underlying image. This is the device we
install grub to (from inside the chroot ...)
This is ok for x86, but is insufficient for some platforms like PPC
which have a separate boot partition. They do not want to install to
the loop device, but do things like dd special ELF files into special
boot partitions.
The first problem seems to be that in level1/partitioning.py we have a
whole bunch of different paths that either call partprobe on the loop
device, or kpartx. We have _all_part_devices_exist() that gates the
kpartx for unknown reasons. We have detach_loopback() that does not
seem to remove losetup created devices. I don't think this does
cleanup if it uses kpartx correctly. It is extremley unclear what's
going to be mapped where.
This moves to us *only* using kpartx to map the partitions of the loop
device. We will *not* call partprobe and create the /dev/loopXpN
devices and will only have the devicemapper nodes kpartx creates.
This seems to be best. Cleanup happens inside partitioning.py.
practice. Deeper thinking about this, and more cleanup of the
variables will be welcome.
This adds "image-block-devices" (note the extra "s") which exports all
the block devices with name and path. This is in a string format that
can be eval'd to an array (you can't export arrays).
This is then used in a follow-on
(I0918e8df8797d6dbabf7af618989ab7f79ee9580) to pick the right
partition on PPC.
