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.

The centos cloud images are both arround a GB in size, and
downloading them causes lot of CI timeouts, downloading the
compressed version saves 700MB of bandwith and should save
a lot of time.

The ability to specify a distro mirror is part of other
distro elements, centos should have one too.

This exact repository along with others are part of the
centos cloud image. From the looks of it this was required for
a very early cloud image.

Completed in Kilo the blueprint ipa-as-default-ramdisk [1] ported all
the Ironic drivers in tree to be able to use the IPA ramdisk for the
deployment.
Now in Liberty the blueprint deprecate-bash-ramdisk is deprecating the
bash ramdisk created using the "deploy-ironic" element in DIB.
This patch is printing a deprecation message when the user uses the
"deploy-ironic" element and as well updating the README file to indicate
that it has been deprecated.

In Id1e430e7d050a0b99ac449e2ea435e06cda1c4e6 I made the mistake of not
actually removing grub in 15-remove-grub.
This restores the removal phase and adds a bunch of comments. It
seems the centos7 and centos (6) images have grub2 installed, but F22
does not; hence the check.
For anyone interested in the history; it seems the whole idea of
removing grub and re-installing it in the finalise stage is to do with
Ubuntu grub scripts failing in the chroot. It is not clear this does,
or has ever, affected rpm based systems; but that's how it is, so
leave well enough alone.
The whole reasoning behind the rpm download & re-install is actually
explained in If095adc4abb52a19a3aa0b1caebfb3e4d8f605ef, but over time
the comments got lost as code moved around. I've restored in here
some detailed explaination of why we don't just re-install the package
"normally". I've also added a note to the pre-install of various
things that are related to this step. Again I think there are some
questions around this that we can investigate in another change.

Currently they are used for inspection, but may be also used for
other purposes, as they're accessed from IPA generic hardware layer.

Switch to using svc-map element for systemd based agent.
This allows both .deb and .rpm installs to share the
element for systemd based installs. There are not any
plans to package a .rpm package for upstart or sysv, so
these are left as is.

Appears that growroot was running before /dev is mounted so the script
is unable to introspect the filesystem partition info. Run this after
all local filesystems are mounted to fix this issue.

We can resize the rootfs without the initrd based approach. Create a
growroot element which performs rootfs resizing as part of system init.

There is a bug where the init scripts element incorrectly munges the
install path making it useless. Also removing the dep on rsync since
this occurs from inside the chroot.

This patch is reducing the size of the ramdisk image generated by the
ironic-agent element. It does remove extra packages (graphical stuff,
dev stuff, miscs, docs, etc...) and purges directories that are not
needed for a ramdisk (like /boot since it boots using an external
kernel)
Currently it was tested generating a Fedora 22 image and reduced the
size of the final image from 464 MB to 211MB compacted (54% decrease).
I was able to boot a VM with 1.3 GiB of ram instead of the previous 3 GiB
needed.

The default value was set in the centos7 element, but not
exported, which caused issues in rpm-distro. Also changed
a test in rpm-distro to only check for DIB_RELEASE > 22
if it's fedora.

The script for ironic-agent utilizes curl, however an extremely
minimal system may not have it, and as such we should list it as
a package that must be installed to support the element.

As described in the comments, sfdisk was rewritten for util-linux 2.26
(as shipped in F22) and now interprets arguments a sectors, rather
than cylinders.
The current partitioning line is "1 - - *" (start/size/type/bootable)
which means you start getting:
---
/usr/sbin/grub2-install: warning: this msdos-style partition label has
no post-MBR gap; embedding won't be possible.
/usr/sbin/grub2-install: warning: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can
only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However,
blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discoura ged..
/usr/sbin/grub2-install: error: will not proceed with blocklists.
---
when building images, because the start is interpreted by the new
sfdisk as sector 1 and it crams the partition right next to the MBR.
Specifying "-" for the size is undefined in the man page; even reading
the source it's not totally clear what "-" for the size does [2]. In
any case, the alignment is wrong in sectors or cylinders; we want to
be a multiple of 4KiB for best performance.
The intent here is to create one single, Linux, bootable, partition
taking up the whole disk starting at 1MiB, so "2048 + L *" makes this
clear.
We use the -uS argument to ensure both versions treat this start-value
as a sector offset (newer sfdisk essentially ignores the argument).
As described in the comments, bugs in the older sfdisk necessitate
usage of "--force".
Although we could choose more or less, it seems most common to align
to a 1MiB boundary (i.e. starting at sector 2048). libguestfs has
some disucssion around --alignment and where it sets it's default to
this [3]. The 2.26-era sfdisk also defaults to putting partitions
here. 1MiB should be enough for GPT schemes in the future as well.
