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.

This element will replace modprobe-blacklist element. It wil
still have the blacklist functionality, but it also adds
the feature of passing a complete file with settings to the
modprobe.d directory. Adding this functionality, that will
allow elements that depends on this module, to just copy the
specified files to the final directory.

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.

As described, we want to set the default label for XFS disks to the
shorter value.
For example, you hit this when setting the old FS_TYPE environment
variable to 'xfs' (which sets the "root-fs-type" parameter, which gets
passed through to 'type'; but does not set a default label).

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.

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.

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...)

This change move "do_extra_package_install" from pre-install to install
phase.
Extra packages are added by user request using the flag "-p", This

The reason behind this patch is to move the extra package install to
a proper phase, Also more reasonable if base element run package update
to be before we install extra packages.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Debootstrap only supports one apt repository to install packages from.
As a result, we do not consider the updates repo during debootstrap
causing us install a second kernel when we do an apt-get dist-upgrade

install the correct packages from the start.
We also have to reorder the dpkg root.d scripts which configure apt so
they run before we perform our package installs.

Move dib-run-parts from dib-utils into diskimage-builder directly.
For calling outside the chroot, we provide a standard entry-point
script. However, as noted in the warning comment, the underlying
script is still copied directly into the chroot by the dib-run-parts
element. I believe this to be the KISS approach.
This removes the dependency on dib-utils. We have discussed this
previously and nobody seemed to think retiring dib-utils was going to
be an issue.
This also updates the documentation to not mention dib-utils, or using
disk-image-create via $PATH setup, but rather gives instructions on
installing from pip with a virtualenv.

don't think we should support the idea that you can check-out the code
and run ./bin/disk-image-create -- it has dependencies (dib-utils,

These new variables are a list of elements chosen for the build along
with their full paths. For Python elements, IMAGE_ELEMENT_YAML is a
YAML formatted list that can be easily parsed. For bash elements,
"get_image_element_array" will produce an associative-array of the
same (working around lack of array export in Bash).
This list is intended for consumption of elements who need to copy
files from other elements, such as pkg-map and svc-map. As discussed
in I2a29861c67de2d25c595cb35d850e92807d26ac6, this list has already
been pruned and had overrides processed, so it is safe to simply walk
over this list with no further processing.
Since we're presenting the element list in a couple of different ways,
we combine it all into the element-info script. It will output an
eval-able string that declares the appropriate variables.
I've added some inline documentation so they still appear in grep.
The documentation is updated with examples, and moved to a more
appropriate location as a sub-section of the element sytle guide.
To test this out, use the associative-array in generate_hooks, where
we can now find the element's directory without searching.

This is a re-factor of element_dependencies to achieve two things --
centralising override policy and storing path names.
Firstly we want to make the override policy for elements completely
explicit. Currently, elements that wish to copy parts of other
elements walk ELEMENTS_PATH themselves and look for elements in
IMAGE_ELEMENT. How they handle duplicate elements can differ, leading
to inconsistent behaviour.
We introduce logic in element-info to find elements in each of the
directories in ELEMENT_PATHS in *reverse* order -- that is to say,
earlier entries in the paths will overwrite later ones.
For example
ELEMENT_PATHS=foo:bar:baz
will mean that "foo/element" will override "baz/element", since "foo"
is first. This should be sane to anyone familiar with $PATH.
Documentation is clarified around this point and a test-case is added.
The second thing is that we want to keep the complete path of the
elements we have chosen. We want the aforementioned elements that
walk the element list to use these canonical paths to pickup files;
this way they don't need to make local decisions about element
overrides, but can simply iterate a list and copy/merge files if they
exist.
A follow-on change (I7092e1845942f249175933d67ab121188f3511fd) will
expose this data in a separate variable that can be parsed by elements
(a further follow-on I0a64b45e9f2cfa28e84b2859d76b065a6c4590f0
modifies the elements to use this information). Thus this does not
change the status-quo -- elements that are walking ELEMENTS_PATH
themselves and can/will continue doing that.
