fa6c731132 Move fstrim to block device layer
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:

-rw-r--r-- 1 dib dib 475661824 Sep 16 06:43 ubuntu-xenial-without-fstrim.qcow2
-rw-r--r-- 1 dib dib 364249088 Sep 16 09:30 ubuntu-xenial-with-fstrim.qcow2

ed3c5d9711 Actually sort mount-point list
We intended to do an in-place sort of the mount-point list, but
sorted() returns a new list that wasn't captured.  Move to the .sort()
function.

It seems the existing unit-test missed this.  Add a new test taken
from the bug which does exhibit a sorting issue.  Also added a
unit-test of just the comparitor for sanity.

1d1e4ccb3e Move rollback into NodeBase object
Currently we pass a reference to a global "rollback" list to create()
to keep rollback functions.  Other nodes don't need to know about
global rollback state, and by passing by reference we're giving them
the chance to mess it up for everyone else.

Add a "add_rollback()" function in NodeBase for create() calls to
register rollback calls within themselves.  As they hit rollback
points they can add a new entry.  lambda v arguments is much of a
muchness -- but this is similar to the standard atexit() call so with
go with that pattern.  A new "rollback()" call is added that the
driver will invoke on each node as it works its way backwards in case
of failure.

On error, nodes will have rollback() called in reverse order (which
then calls registered rollbacks in reverse order).

A unit test is added to test rollback behaviour

09dee46579 Move global mount tracking into state
Keep track of the mount-point ordering in a state variable, rather
than a global.  This path is tested by existing unit tests.

Note a prior change inserted the MountNode objects directly into a
list in self.state, which makes sorting quite easy as it can just
implement __lt__.  Unfortunately we still json dump the state, and
thus we can't have aribtrary objects in it (future work may be to
check keys inserted into the status object...).  So we have to do a
bit of wrangling with tuple lists and comparision functions here, but
it's not too bad.

b708918b85 Remove 'state' argument from later cmd_* calls
With I468dbf5134947629f125504513703d6f2cdace59 each node has a
reference to the global state object.  This means it gets pickled into
the node-list, which is loaded for later calls.  There is no need to
reload the state.json it and pass it for later cmd_* calls, as the
nodes can see it via the unpickled self.state

824a9e91c4 Add state to NodeBase class
Making the global state reference a defined part of the node makes
some parts of the block device processing easier and removes the need
for other global values.

The state is passed to PluginNodeBase.__init__() and expected to be
passed into all nodes as they are created.  NodeBase.__init__() is
updated with the new paramater 'state'.

The parameter is removed from the create() call as nodes can simply
reference it at any point as "self.state".

This is similar to 1cdc8b20373c5d582ea928cfd7334469ff36dbce, except it
is based on I68840594a34af28d41d9522addcfd830bd203b97 which loads the
node-list from pickled state for later cmd_* calls.  Thus we only
build the state *once*, at cmd_create() time as we build the node
list.

35a1e7bee9 Refactor mount-point sorting
Currently we keep a global list of mount-points defined in the
configuration and automatically setup dependencies between mount nodes
based on their global "mount order" (i.e. higher directories mount
first).

The current method for achieving this is roughly to add the mount
points to a dictionary indexed my mount-point, then at "get_edge()"
call build the sorted list ... unless it has already been built
because this gets called for every node.

It seems much simpler to simply keep a sorted list of the
MountPointNode objects as we add them.  We don't need to implement a
sorting algorithm then, we can just use sort() and implement __lt__
for the nodes.

I believe the existing mount-order unit testing is sufficient; I'm
struggling to find a valid configuration where the mount-order is
*not* correctly specified in the configuration graph.

b85de3cd9e Add state object, rename "results", add unit tests
A couple of things going on, but I think it makes sense to do them
atomically.

The NodeBase.create() argument "results" is the global state
dictionary that will be saved to "state.json", and re-loaded in later
phases and passed to them as the argument "state".  So for
consistency, call this argument "state" (this fits with the change out
to start building the state dictionary earlier in the
PluginBase.__init__() calls).

Since the "state" is a pretty important part of how everything works,
move it into a separate object.  This is treated as essentially a
singleton.  It bundles it nicely together for some added
documentation [1].

We move instantiation of this object out of the generic
BlockDevice.__init__() call and into the actual cmd_* drivers.  This
is because there's two distinct instantiation operations -- creating a
new state (during cmd_create) and loading an existing state (other
cmd_*).  This is also safer -- since we know the cmd_* arguments are
looking for an existing state.json, we will fail if it somehow goes
missing.

To more fully unit test this, some testing plugins and new
entry-points are added.  These add known state values which we check
for.  These should be a good basis for further tests.

[1] as noted, we could probably do some fun things in the future like
make this implement a dictionary and have some saftey features like
r/o keys.

f314df12c3 Refactor: use lazy logging
As described in pep282 [1], the variable part of a log message
should be passed in via parameter.  In this case the parameters
are evaluated only when they need to be.

This patch fixes (unifies) this for DIB.

A check using pylint was added that this kind of passing parameters to
the logging subsystem is enforced in future.  As a blueprint a similar
(stripped-down) approach from cinder [2] was used.

deb832d685 Create and use plugin/node abstract classes
This completes the transitions started in
Ic5a61365ef0132476b11bdbf1dd96885e91c3cb6

The new file plugin.py is the place to start with this change.  The
abstract base classes PluginBase and NodeBase are heavily documented.
NodeBase essentially replaces Digraph.Node

The changes in level?/*.py make no functional changes, but are just
refactoring to implement the plugin and node classes consistently.
Additionally we have added asserts during parsing & generation to
ensure plugins are implemented PluginBase, and get_nodes() is always
returning NodeBase objects for the graph.

75817ef205 Use networkx for digraph
This switches the code to use networkx for the digraph implementation.

Note that the old implementation specifically isn't removed in this
change -- for review clarity.  It will be replaced by a base class
that defines things properly to the API described below.

Plugins return a node object with three functions

 get_name() : return the unique name of this node

 get_nodes() : return a list of nodes for insertion into the graph.
  Usually this is just "self".  Some special things like partitioning
  add extra nodes at this point, however.

 get_edges() : return a tuple of two lists; edges_from and edges_to
  As you would expect the first is a list of node names that points to
  us, and the second is a list of node names we point to.  Usually
  this is only populated as ([self.base],[]) -- i.e. our "base" node
  points to us.  Some plugins, such as mounting, create links both to
  and from themselves, however.

Plugins have been updated, some test cases added (error cases
specifically)

00da1982ce Add a more generic tree->graph parser
This moves to a more generic config parser that doesn't have plugins
parsing part of the tree.

I understand why it ended up that way; we have "partitions" key which
has special semantics compared to others keys and there was a desire
to keep it isolated from core tree->graph code.  But this isn't really
isolated; you have to reverse-engineer several module-crossing
boundaries, extras classes and repetitive recursive functions.

Ultimately, plugins should have access to the node graph, but not
participate in configuration parsing.  This way we ensure that plugins
can't invent new methods of configuration parsing.

Note: unit tests produce the same tree -> graph conversion as the old
method.  i.e. this is not intended to have a functional change.

Moving the exception didn't cause problems in
I925ed62bdc808f0e07862f6e0905e80b50fbe942, but in later changes where
we split blockdevice.py up a bit more, we can get a bit tangled with
circular imports.

b91207ae47 Remove _config_error thrower
"log and throw" is arguably an anti-pattern; the error message either
bubles-up into the exception, or the handler figures it out.  We have
an example where this logs, and then the handler in blockdevice.py
catches it and logs it again.

Less layers is better; just raise the exception, and use log.exception
to get tracebacks where handled.

e4e23897a1 Refactor: block-device filesystem creation, mount and fstab
This patch finalizes the block device refactoring.  It moves the three
remaining levels (filesystem creation, mount and fstab handling) into
the new python module.

Now it is possible to use any number of disk images, any number of
partitions and used them mounted to different directories.

Notes:

 * unmount_dir : modified to only unmount the subdirs mounted by
   mount_proc_sys_dev().  dib-block-device unmounts
   $TMP_MOUNT_PATH/mnt (see I85e01f3898d3c043071de5fad82307cb091a64a9)
