s390x architecture uses zipl as bootloader. When used in combination
with the vm element it replaces the existing bootloader element.
It's mandatory for s390x vm images.
Use cases
---------
* Allow users to create s390x images that run on nova with s390x
libvirt/kvm backend
* Building nodepool images for s390x third party CI
Supported Distros
-----------------
The following listing shows all Distros that officially support
s390x and how those Distros are supported in DIB with this patch.
* SLES - not supported (SLES is not supported in DIB)
* RHEL - not suppoprted (RHEL is not supported as KVM guest on s390x,
therefore there's no rhel7 qcow image for s390x available
like it is for other archictectures)
* Ubuntu - supported
Ubuntu images can for example be built using the following commands:
$ disk-image-create ubuntu-minimal zipl vm
$ disk-image-create ubuntu-minimal zipl
$ disk-image-create ubuntu zipl vm
Testing
-------
Cross architecture building of s390x images is not supported so far.
The plan is to set up a ThirdParty CI that builds the image for s390x and
provides the logs.

Commit cebfcf85f9 ("Use -t devpts for
/dev/pts mounts") switched from using '--bind' to '-t devpts' for
mounting the /dev/pts virtual filesystem. However, mounting devpts to
another location also affects the host's /dev/pts mountpoint. Since we
are now mounting devpts without options we end up with the following one
on openSUSE
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,mode=600,ptmxmode=000)
instead of the one we want
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,gid=5,mode=620,ptmxmode=000)
The missing gid=5 options results to boot problems for virtual machines
So in order to fix that, we need to use the existing devpts options for
/dev/pts so we don't lose them in the new mount.

Currently a bind is used when mounting /dev/pts in chroot.
This leads to problems - especially when running DIB in parallel:
It was observed that the /dev/pts mount vanishes from the host
system.
This patch uses '-t devpts' - as it is done for /sys and /proc -
for handling /dev/pts.

The call to fstrim in disk-image-create is currently useless, because
at the time this is called, the file systems were already umounted by
the block device layer.
The current implementation of the block-device mount plugin does not
call fstrim at all: resulting in larger image sizes.
This patch removes the useless fstrim call from the disk-image-create
script and moves this into the block-device mount.py.
The resulting image might be much smaller. Example: Ubuntu Xenial
with some elements; once with and once without this patch:

Change I008f8bbc9c8414ce948c601e3907e27764e15a52 has shown that we
build redhat images without the "semange" tool available, which comes
from the policycoreutils-python package (see also
I3f9e2c322d042a5dddba33451c0fc21a4d32a88a).
I403e7806ae10d5dd96d0727832f4da20e34b94c7 added some of the selinux
libraries to yum-minimal for ansible support, but not to others.
Given both these changes, it seems that selinux[-targeted],
libselinux[-python] and policycoreutils[-python] can reasonably
considered part of all base images. Move the selinux related packages
into redhat-common.
This also adds it explicitly to install_test_deps.sh. It was actually
being dragged in by the docker install, but is a required component
for building (should be in bindep, but not there with that yet).

As described in the comments inline, on a selinux enabled kernel (such
as a centos build host) you need to have permissions to change the
contexts to those the kernel doesn't understand -- such as when you're
building a fedora image.
For some reason, setfiles has an arbitrary limit of 10 errors before
it stops. I believe we previously had 9 errors (this mean 9
mis-labeled files, which were just waiting to cause problems).
Something changed with F26 setfiles and it started erroring
immediately, which lead to investigation. Infra builds, on
non-selinux Ubuntu kernel's, would not have hit this issue.
This means we need to move this to run with a manual chroot into the
image under restorecon.
I'm really not sure why ironic-agent removes all the selinux tools
from the image, it seems like an over-optimisation (it's been like
that since Id6333ca5d99716ccad75ea1964896acf371fa72a). Keep them so
we can run the relabel.

We added the DIB_distro_DISTRIBUTION_MIRROR arguments with

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.

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

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

bugs.
