As described inline, deprecate the "source" install for CentOS 8.
Overwriting the packaged tools has long been a pain-point in our
images, and the best outcome is just not to play the game [1].
However, the landscape remains complicated. For example, RHEL/CentOS
8 introduces the separate "platform-python" binary, which seems like
the right tool to install platform tools like "glean" (simple-init)
with. However, platform-python doesn't have virtualenv (only the
inbuilt venv).
So that every element doesn't have to hard-code in workarounds for
these various layouts, create two new variables DIB_PYTHON_PIP and
DIB_PYTHON_VIRTUALENV to just "do the right thing". If you need is
"install a pip package" or "create a virtualenv" this should work on
all the platforms we support. If you know more specifically what you
want (e.g. must be a python3 virtualenv) then nothing stops elements
calling that directly (e.g. python3 -m virtualenv create); these are
just helper wrappers for base elements that need to be broadly
compatible.

Two bugs are addressed.
1) The sysprep element was broken in that it only truncates
/etc/machine-id, but not /var/lib/dbus/machine-id. systemd will
not generate a new machine-id if /var/lib/dbus/machine-id is
present[1], it will simply copy it to /etc/machine-id.
We observed machine-ids being packaged in /var/lib/dbus/machine-id
on several distros: Ubuntu Bionic, Fedora 29, Debian Stretch.
CentOS 7 and Ubuntu Xenial do not contain packaged machine-id as
far as I can tell.
All test builds were performed using -minimal elements.
2) A second bug existed where debian-minimal did not run the sysprep
element at all, so a stretch image I tested contained a populated
/etc/machine-id AND a populated /var/lib/dbus/machine-id.

linux-firmware and linux-firmware-whence (meta package for mostly iwl
firmwares) packages account for approx. 289 M install size on a F30
system, and linux-firmware for approx. 176 M on CentOS 7. Users needing
these firmwares are eventually baremetal users and are not looking for a
very minimal operating system base install like virtual image users are.
Thus, a non-minimal OS element is better suited for them. Alternatively,
it could be later considered a dedicated firmware element.
This is inline with I8ce65e1d357d15e8ed8995ad1dcaea02bbd1986f.

This is a follow-on to I475a253091cbaf63687b91c748c31a6753bb0f57 as we
are still seeing issues on some clouds with unconfigured networking.
We increase the timeout, but also make it configurable so we can
fiddle it without a dib release in the gate.
To follow-on from the experimentation done by clarkb, I can confirm by
emperical testing on a Centos 7 image (from today, today being this
change's date) that setting
net.ipv6.conf.all.autoconf=0
by itself is "fatal" and the interfaces do not come up; i.e. nm does
not by default seem to re-enable ipv6 for the interface. However,
explicitly adding:
IPV6INIT=yes
IPV6_AUTOCONF=yes
to the interface file *does* seem to make it work, even if
"all.autoconf=0" is set (then again, there's also bugs about the
effect of this [1]). However, no extant distribution (I can currently
find) does anything like this by default.
If this continues, this may be an option. Another might be to avoid
the use of the nm-settings-ifcfg-rh profiles and move directly to nm
ini files with glean.

As noted in the change, 7fd52ba841
increased the size of the EFI partition considerably. This has meant
that our padding upwards of the disk size is insufficient and EFI
builds (arm64 in particular) is failing due to out-of-disk errors
during final image operations like installing kernels.
Similar to the discussion we had in
I65fa13a088eecdfe61636678578577ea2cfb3c0c, this feels a bit ugly
because we're mixing logic here with sizes specified in block-device
config files. But it boils down to the same problem; we are
calculating the disk size here and passing it to the block-layer, so
unless we want to make large changes to the status quo about where
these sizes are calculated, small adjustments here are the most KISS
solution.
Thus we check if we have selected the EFI bootloader element, and thus
assume there will be a large system EFI partition and expand the disk
size accordingly.

This element configures systemd to send its journal to the console,
which can then be retreived by server commands. In the case of
nodepool, if the image failed to boot the console will be dumped into
the logs when nodepool decides the node is not responding. Having
this can be very helpful diagnosing early boot errors.

Currently diskimage-builder supports two ways to specify the image
size. One is defining a fixed image size using DIB_IMAGE_SIZE, the
other one is auto-detection while adding a security margin of 60% as
free space. This means when building larger images (e.g. >100GB) with
unknown size upfront we end up with much wasted space, IO and network
traffic when uploading the images to several cloud providers. This can
be optimized by adding a third way by defining DIB_IMAGE_EXTRA_SIZE to
specify the free space in GB. This makes it possible to easily build
images of varying sizes while still minimizing the overhead by keeping
the free space constant to e.g. 1GB.

In many cases, the statically sized 64MB journal is far below the
e2fstools default calculation[0] which calls for a 64MB journal only
on filesystems smaller than 16GB. On bare metal in particular, the
correct default journal size will often be in the 512MB-1GB range.
Since we cannot know what the target system is, this should be a
tunable parameter that the user can set depending on the intended
image usage.
Add a DIB_JOURNAL_SIZE envvar and --mkfs-journal-size parameter
to the image creation so users can override the default journal
size.

In this case, install the NetworkManager package. In the non-nm case,
also install the network-scripts for Fedora 29 -- this has stopped
being installed by default (it's been deprecated since forever).
As noted in the docs, this is currently really only relevant on the

NetworkManager has similar plugins for other platforms, so support can
be expanded if changes are proposed.

While trying to get docker image pre-caching to work we couldn't get a
docker daeomon to run within the chrooted environment. However we got
docker running with the help of bwrap outside of the chrooted
environment. The only option so far for this is the block-device.d
phase. But this has the problem that it runs after the image size has
been calculated. This leads to broken builds if the docker images
being pulled are big.
This can be solved by adding a post-root.d phase that runs outside the
chroot but before the image size calculation.

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

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...)

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

Codesearch shows no users depending on this unintentional implicit

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.

On Debian Jessie and Debian Stretch systemctl is in /bin.
If the package systemd-sysv is not installed the script
dib-init-system did not find the init system.
This patch fixes the problem: it also looks in /bin
for systemctl and if found decides for systemd.

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.
(This is a reworking of I31d2b6050b6c46fefe37378698e9a330025db430 for
the feature/v2 branch)

During the creation of a disk image (e.g. for a VM), there is the need
to create, setup, configure and afterwards detach some kind of storage
where the newly installed OS can be copied to or directly installed
in.
This patch implements partitioning handling.

Cleaning logs was split, some was done in the
img-functions.finalise_base, some was done in the base element.
The version unifies tidy up logs in the lib/img-functions.
Especially when building docker container images the base element
cannot be used. This patch removes about some hundreds KB of
useless logs in cases when the base element is not used.

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.

Set the grub timeout to 5 seconds by default, and add notes on how to

The squashfs format brings a couple of advantages over the other
formats. Image is often an order of magnitude smaller and it can
be used natively, either as an initrd, either with loop mount.

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
during build.
Lets use debootstrap to get us a minimal chroot, then add our repos and
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.

Add new 'openssh-server' element to ensure that openssh server
is installed and enabled during boot. This is mostly useful for
*-minimal images which do not come with openssh installed and/or
enabled in order to keep a small dependency footprint.

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.

Releasenote translation publishing is being prepared. 'locale_dirs'

Move managing of SSH host keys into a dedicated element.
Because glean doesn't generate SSH host keys anymore, we need to do it
with a systemd script. This is already handled by CentOS / Fedora so
we don't want to add it there.

Move element-info from a wrapper script to a standard entry-point
console_script.
Update the documentation to explain how to run it for development. I
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,
etc) and needs to be run from a virtualenv (this is what CI in the
gate does). A follow-up can clean-up some of the path munging stuff
we have for this in disk-image-create.

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.

Icf8a075224833fcfbbe2128e8802ff41c39f3c09 looked rather ugly, and it's
easy for us to expand the processing done in the arch list.
Change "arch" to a comma-separated list of architectures that should
match for install.
Add a "not-arch" list which will exclude the package from installation
on those architectures. (An aside -- I considered making it just he
one list with foo,!bar,moo but ! has special meaning in YAML, so it's
easier to have two lists).
