As part of the blueprint root-device-hints Ironic will pass some to the
deploy ramdisk some hints about which disk device it should pick to be
root device (the one where the image will be deployed on).
Before the deploy ramdisk would pick the first device it finds, but as the
machine could have more than one SATA, SCSI or IDE disk controllers the
order in which their corresponding device nodes are added is arbitrary
causing devices like /dev/sda and /dev/sdb switching around on each
boot time.
Plus, as people are adding support to build RAID arrays in Ironic we need
a way to tell it to use the just created device to be the root device.
The list of hints that could be passed to the deploy ramdisk so it finds
the right disk is:
* wwn (STRING): unique storage identifier
* serial (STRING): disk serial number
* model (STRING): device identifier
* vendor (STRING): device vendor
* size (INT): The size of the disk in GB
If not hints are passed, the deploy ramdisk will continue to do what it
did before to find the disk.

This commit adds support for uefi localboot in
deploy-ironic element. The change is to mount the efi
system partition (created by Ironic) in /boot/efi.
The corresponding Ironic change is

Commit 36b59c001c introduces
DIB_DEBUG_TRACE, to be checked in element scripts for enabling tracing.
In the aforementioned conversion, few scripts were left with
unconditional "set -x" calls: remove them, changing the default value
for unset DIB_DEBUG_TRACE from 0 to 1, to retain their older behaviour
(as it was done in 36b59c001c too).

Previously, this code was not checking for the proper environment
variable for an element's installtype. There was a line replacing '-'
with '_' as is required, but that value was not actually used when
searching for the environment variable.

/tmp does not contain anything useful anyway, and excluding its content
makes the initramfs smaller too.

This adds support to UEFI secure boot by copying signed shim and

The newest stable Fedora splits out kernel modules into
a separate package. By default this is not installed in
the Fedora cloud image... and it contains some things we
need for Ironic (iscsi_tcp module) among other things that
might be very useful.

The other distro elements set DIB_RELEASE which allows the other
elements to know what distro release is being built during the
extra-data or environment.d phases.

The construction of the combined svc-map-services file uses the host's
/tmp directory to store a work-in-progress file. That file's left behind
after it's done with.
There's a potential race here; together with problems that may arise
if two users attempt to run devtest on the same system.
This patch fixes this by creating the temporary file specifically under
$TMP_MOUNT_PATH.

This allows them to install packages already specified in .yaml files
for them, which are not installed otherwise since the migration to .yaml
files.

subprocess.check_output() has been introduced in Python 2.7, so the
script will fail when trying to install stuff in guests with Python 2.6
and older (like RHEL 6 / CentOS 6, for example).
Thus gracefully fallback to subprocess.Popen() when
subprocess.check_output() is not available.

This makes the docs site a lot more manageable and begins moving us in
the direction of separate user and developer docs.

A recent commit (I29c73355a85112840b57f93b39a9eeda421875e6) updated the
epel element to rely on wget, but wget is not always installed. Since
wget is used in pre-install.d, we must install it in that phase.

Also make the apt-sources element exit with a non-error status code
when the DIB_APT_SOURCES is not set.
This allows including the apt-preferences and apt-sources elements
even if DIB_DPKG_MANIFEST and DIB_APT_SOURCES are not exported.

When there is no pkg-map file for the specified element, list the passed
packages if --missing-ok is specified.
This mirrors what is being done already later, when a pkg-map file
exists but it does not have the mapping for the requested package.

epel-release 7.2 has been superseded by 7.5, so update accordingly.
this time, detect the available epel-release package from the repo
instead of hardcoding version number which will break build each
time the version number gets bumped up.

We don't export DIB_RELEASE in the base distro scripts, so many
times it will be an unset variable in 51-bootloader from the vm
element. Currently that script doesn't handle the situation
properly and we get errors like:
line 160: [: =: unary operator expected
This change quotes the references to DIB_RELEASE so that won't
happen anymore.

It is an established convention to use DIB_IMAGE_CACHE in elements to
refer to the cache location. This convention has not been documented
in the README, unlike other element development practices. This change
adds documentation for DIB_IMAGE_CACHE both from an element user and
developer perspective.
