Wed Sep 26 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Create parent qgroup when snapper is present This commit creates a new parent quota group (1/0) of level 1 when btrfs_quota_groups is enabled and snapper present into the image root tree. Related to bsc#1093518 and #812
Wed Sep 26 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup make build target Don\'t include auto generated schema docs into the source tarball. Also cleanup MANIFEST.in from files no longer present in the repository
Wed Sep 26 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Disable warnings report from pytest By default pytest now generates warnings for all modules used in the tox environment. This information is nice but taints the test output of the code of this project and is therefore unwanted.
Wed Sep 26 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Customize latex output for look and feel
Wed Sep 26 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update development doc chapter per review by Tom
Tue Sep 25 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Make volume id customizable for installation ISOs This commit makes volid attribute also available for OEM images. The installation media makes use of the volid value. Only posix safe names are allowed, up to 32 characters. Fixes #811
Mon Sep 24 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Include PDF build of documentation to the package Bundle a PDF version of the online documentation with the rpm package build. Due to the complexity of getting a latex build environment into the travis CI which does not take forever to install, the bundling of a built PDF into the pypi archive has been skipped. Users installing from pypi would need to install a latex env on their machine and run make latexpdf from the installed bundle. This Fixes #819
Mon Sep 24 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update docs for setting up development environment Reference py3.6 when showing example tox call. Also delete a py version reference where it was not needed
Fri Sep 21 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update kiwi tools README Delete obsolete entries for tools no longer present
Thu Sep 20 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Adding bugfix trace for bsc#1108508 bsc#1108508 ticket was fixed with bf556a96 and 77517cff commits. Just adding the ticket reference here.
Wed Sep 19 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed disk detection for live iso in loopback grub If the live iso is used as a disk on e.g USB sticks and is configured to setup a persistent write space via the initrd option rd.live.overlay.persistent, it\'s required to find the disk device to create a write partition on it. This detection worked if the live iso is binary dumped on the disk and bootet due to the hybrid support each iso built by kiwi provides. However if the live ISO deployment should not destroy existing data on the disk there is an alternative setup which uses grub\'s loopback support and puts the iso as a file on some partition of the disk. In this mode the kiwi-live dracut module failed to find the disk device and could not setup a persistent write partition.
Thu Sep 13 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Make use of kiwi/utils/sysconfig This commit makes use the sysconfig kiwi utility in order to read and eventually update the /etc/sysconfig/snapper file.
Thu Sep 13 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Snapper configuration for btrfs quota support refactored This commit refactors the snapper configuration for btrfs quota support when btrfs_root_is_snapshot is enabled. The sysconfig file /etc/sysconfig/snapper is now taken into consideration. Fixes bsc#1093518
Wed Sep 12 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed overlay of intermediate config files Some config files e.g etc/hosts needs to be temporary copied from the buildsystem host to the image root system. This is done by a custom copy with the .kiwi extension and a symlink to that file. During the installation process the package manager either overwrites the file or creates a .rpmnew variant. In case a .rpmnew variant exists there is code in kiwi which restores that .rpmnew variant to become the real file. However that _restore_intermediate_config_rpmnew_variants() method runs after overlay files has been applied to the system because it\'s part of the final cleanup step. In order to preserve an eventual overlay version of the file the .rpmnew variant gets only restored if the real file does not exist. This Fixes #807
Wed Sep 12 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed dice documentation The chapter: Building in a Self-Contained Environment holds a fixed ruby version in the package install which was outdated. It also still referenced the container as tar.xz but we have changed to uncompressed containers by default a while back
Tue Sep 11 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed filesystem builder use of exclude list kiwi defines a global Defaults.get_exclude_list_for_root_data_sync method but it was not used in the scope of the filesystem builder. Thus this builder was missing the exclusion of the .buildenv file. This references Issue #422 and Fixes #814
Tue Sep 4 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Fix quota groups management when snapper is present
* Fixes the config file path if root is snapshot
* Uses the correct QGROUP=\"\" syntax
* Do not overwrite the config file if already present Fixes bsc#1093518
Sat Aug 25 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Separate dracut module install by Makefile target The dracut modules like kiwi provides it should not be part of the default install target. If kiwi gets installed from source or via pip all dracut code gets installed on that system which is unwanted and in the worst case leads to boot trouble next time this system rebuilds its initrd via dracut. Therefore an extra Makefile target which is used in the spec of an rpm but not in the install target of setup.py is provided in this commit. As a consequence the installation from pip will not install any dracut modules on that system which is intentional. Installing from source requires to run make install_dracut which if called assumes the caller knows what he/she does :)
Mon Aug 20 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Follow up fix for skip_cleanup use make sure doc_travis tox target has created the manual pages such that the environment contains this data
Mon Aug 20 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Follow up fix for deploy target Integration of man pages must be done as part of the sdist setup because the travis pypi deployment only uses the sdist target to bundle the sources
Mon Aug 20 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed deploy target As part of the deploy process in travis a bundle to pypi is uploaded. The bundle is missing the compiled manual pages because the doc_travis stage did not create them.
Wed Aug 8 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update pxe server setup documentation Delete the suggested modifications to /etc/sysconfig/atftpd and trust the defaults provided by the package
Wed Aug 8 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added support for system wide config file If there is no user specific config file we are also looking for a system wide /etc/kiwi.yml file
Wed Aug 8 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - use more meaningful variable names
Tue Aug 7 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Fix baseStripUnusedLibs config method This commit arguments handling of the baseStripUnusedLibs that was not prepared to handle quoted variable containing a list. Fixes #798
Tue Aug 7 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added doc chapter for remote live boot
Mon Aug 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added support for pxe live boot via AOE The live ISO should support a network reference. We are using the Ata Over Ethernet protocol to achieve this. In combination with pxe boot of the kernel/initrd a live iso can boot from the network using the following parameter example: root=live:AOEINTERFACE:e0.1 rd.kiwi.live.pxe Export of the live iso file via AOE can be achieved using the vblade toolkit which needs to be available on the exporting system and compatible with the live operating system. This Fixes #796
Mon Aug 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Run schema validation/update per XSL stylesheets
Mon Aug 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added XSL stylesheet to auto update schema Drop oem-ataraid-scan from oemconfig if specified
Mon Aug 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Drop oem-ataraid-scan from schema Along with the change we pin generateDS version to 2.29.14 because the newer version (2.29.19) creates broken python syntax for elements with a value list for their content like it\'s the case for the packagemanager element. The tool uses the name k.packagemanager.content as class name which is invalid for python.
Mon Aug 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Delete dmraid aka: softraid soft/fakeraid support In fate#323743 the decision was made to drop dmraid from the distribution. Along with the low business case for those controllers and the support for linux softraid via mdadm we also drop the support in kiwi for oem-ataraid-scan
Mon Aug 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed unresolvables in EC2 integration build For some reason libyui-ncurses-pkg8 is gone now

Wed Aug 1 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added vagrant setup chapter in the docs Document steps to create a vagrant box for the libvirt provider. Also provide information on provider support This Fixes #792
Tue Jul 31 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Use xattr 0.9.3 Latest xattr is broken on pip
Tue Jul 31 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed make obs_test_status The helper script .obs_test_status looks up the build results from the integration tests. With the introduction of multibuild integration tests the script has to apply some modifications to get the correct results This is related to Issue #791
Mon Jul 30 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup validation of boottimeout attribute If boottimeout is set to zero it is evaluated as \"not set\" and the default applies. However it\'s a fairly well approach to set a zero second boot timeout. This Fixes #789
Fri Jul 27 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Do not replace version from the image name This commit makes sure that replacing version to version plus the build id on resulting files happens only on version suffixes. Before that if image name was including the version string it, this part was also replaced. Fixes #787 (bsc#1102868)
Fri Jul 27 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Extending result bundle task tests to better cover corner cases This commit adds some tests to better cover a couple of cases:
* image name contains the version of the image
* the file in result does not include the version
Wed Jul 25 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Cleanup misleading error message In root_bind if the cleanup failed to remove a directory hierarchy the error message was just displaying the path as it would be on the host root and not based on the root of the image root tree.
Tue Jul 24 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Modify python-yaml dependency for CentOS and RHEL 7 This commit fixes #785
Fri Jul 20 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Do not run Codacy analysis on tests
Thu Jul 19 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup DiskFormatOva implementation The inheritance and super call concept used in this class destroys the OO design concept of loosely coupled code and also leads to a broken build because it bypasses the post_init constructor called by the base class
Mon Jul 16 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed building VMware images with pvscsi adapter Qemu does not natively support the pvscsi adapter type. However there is a VMware suggested procedure which allows to change the lsilogic setup to pvscsi inside of the DDB of a formerly created lsilogic configured image format. This patch implementes that procedure and Fixes bsc#1099569
Fri Jul 13 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed name of checksum file for pxe type The pxe image build generates among others a checksum file with the suffix \'.md5\' This file is read by the legacy netboot code and is expected to have the same basename as the image file itself. However if the compressed attribute is set the image file name is set to \'image.xz\' and the checksum is named \'image.xz.md5\' which is wrong because \'image.md5\' is expected. This patch makes sure the checksum file is always set to \'image.md5\' no matter if the compressed flag is configured or not
Fri Jul 13 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed custom_args argument assignment in BootImage custom_args has been deleted from BootImageKiwi class but was still passed in the Factory
Fri Jul 13 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added runtime check for label use Added check_volume_label_used_with_lvm to check if custom volume labels are used in the scope of LVM
Fri Jul 13 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed GCE image file name In former times Google requires the image name to follow their naming conventions. However that seems to have changed and it is no longer required to match a certain pattern. Thus this patch changes the output name of the GCE tar file to use the same naming schema as KIWI applies to its output files
Wed Jul 11 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Support label attribute in volumes The optional label attribute in a volume section allows to specify a filesystem label for the selected volume. The label setup will have no effect on filesystems which implements their own volume management like it\'s the case for btrfs. This Fixes #738
Wed Jul 11 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update schema tron rules for btrfs type attributes The btrfs_ * attributes only applies for vmx and oem types
* Update of design patterns on pylint and landscape
Fri Jul 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Add support for activation of btrfs quota groups If the new type attribute btrfs_quota_groups is set to true this will enable the quota group system for btrfs based systems. This Fixes #772 and bsc#1093518
Fri Jul 6 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Improve coding style, tests and label format validation
Fri Jul 6 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Add \'--add-container-label\' flag This commits adds a command line flag to add a label for container image types. The flag can be used multiple times. Fixes #770
Wed Jul 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added system cleanup methods Some files in the system gets created by services like systemd or zypper and are meant to be created once on the target system. However in the image they might be unwanted. Thus this commit adds convenience methods to delete files which gets automatically re-created by the services on startup. Whether or not the methods are used is in the responsibility of the author of the image descripion. This Fixes bsc#1098535
Fri Jun 29 14:00:00 2018 adrianAATTsuse.de - avoid double quoting of disturl in label (...=\"\'obs://...\'\"). avoid always printed warning of missing disturl make use of disturl variable
Wed Jun 20 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Simplify configfile loading prefix and root variables are correctly set, thus calling the \"normal\" command has the same effect than the explicit call for \"configfile\"
Tue Jun 19 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Prevent building custom efi image If the distribution provides a prebuilt efi image kiwi should use it instead of building its own image.
Wed Jun 13 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Avoid module loading in grub config template This patch is two fold. First part replaces the import of dedicated video modules in the grub image by the all_video module. Second part avoids runtime module insertion which requires access to the boot filesystem which is not guaranteed on sophisticated rootfs structures like btrfs plus readonly snapshots and what not. Thus we make sure all boot code is embedded into the grub image(s) and no extra loading of modules at runtime will be needed. This Fixes bsc#1096937
Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Fix for bsc#1094788 This is just an empty commit to include the bugfix reference in the repository history. The bugfix for bsc#1094788 was actually commited in: commit 835cebfe5c488515dfbcdf33dab6262613ca5508 Author: Marcus Schäfer Date: Tue May 29 16:42:55 2018 +0200
Tue Jun 12 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Complete GUID change from signed to unsigned Follow up fix to complete the binary packing of the GUID format to use unsigned types. Missed to move short source from signed to unsigned. This Fixes bsc#1095267
Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Move fedora integration test build to fc28 distro
Wed Jun 6 14:00:00 2018 ngompa13AATTgmail.com - Use the versioned Python interpreter path to run build helper scripts The kiwi build process mostly does the right thing in terms of executing with the correct Python interpreter throughout the build process, with the exception of the Makefile not correctly locating the versioned Python interpreter executable path, and the bash completion generator being executed using \'/usr/bin/python\' without regard for what the target environment was. This is a problem when a build environment complying with PEP 394 as it stands today does not have Python 2 installed, such as when kiwi is being built as a Python 3-only package in Fedora. Thus, the Makefile has been adjusted to not only correctly locate the versioned Python interpreter, but to also execute \'completion_helper\' with the correct interpreter. Additionally, a trivial change to the shebang to \'completion_helper\' was made to be consistent with other Python-based build helper scripts. This is part of the overall effort to eliminate the dependencies on Python 2 in Fedora. Reference: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FinalizingFedoraSwitchtoPython3
Tue Jun 5 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup move_to_root method move_to_root is called to check each element of a given list and changes any path specification to a valid path if the given root path would be it\'s root(/). This tranformation implied the creation of paths containing double slashes like //foo which was considered harmless. However it has turned out that the dnf package manager makes a difference here which requires to fix the resulting paths. This Fixes #761
Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Adding license tag under description tag in schema This license tag does not effect the resulting image in any way. The tag is just included to state the license of the kiwi image sources in case they are distributed. Fixes #728
Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Make sure profile env is included in live images For all images which boots via dracut the .profile file is included except for live iso\'s because no information is needed from that file to boot or customize the boot. However the .profile contains the kiwi_revision information which is useful for any image type. This Fixes #755
Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Add config-cdroot to description import list During the prepare step the image description and mandatory files needed in the create step are copied into the image root system below the image/ directory. In case of the optional config-cdroot archive this copy action was missing which lead to the problem that the archive was not present if the kiwi system create command is sequence is used. This Fixes #756
Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added true module to grub image list When kiwi creates a grub image a list of modules are embedded. For the purpose of snapshot boot the true module seems to be used but was not included at build time when kiwi created the grub image. This Fixes bsc#1093917
Mon Jun 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Changed GUID format from signed to unsigned With reference to Microsoft Guid constructors it seems unsigned values are allowed which could exceed the value range of the binary unpack used in kiwi. This Fixes bsc#1095267
Fri Jun 1 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Fix SC2164 complain of shellcheck
Thu May 31 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Updating shellcheck call from tox Recent shellcheck versions are more strict and complain about backslashes \"\\\" used in literals claiming it is preferred to use double backslashes \"\\\\\". As is just a styling advise and we use backslashes in multiple commands (echo, sed, etc) I believe this can be ignored.
Wed May 30 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.de - Relax runtime check for ISO images using dmsquash This commit relaxes the dracut-kiwi-live module requirement if dmsquash dracut module is selected in flags attribute.
Tue May 29 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - omit multipath module in live iso initrd The multipath module creates device maps which puts the device in a busy state and prevents the creation of a persistent write partition. As multipath seems never useful for the root of a live iso image we generally omit this module from being included
Tue May 29 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup LOADER_LOCATION in sysconfig/bootloader By default we always set LOADER_LOCATION=mbr which is wrong if EFI is in use. This patch updates the value to be correct. It also seems that this variable is only consumed by the yast2 bootloader module from past days. Thus we consider it obsolete and on the to be droped list in future releases. This Fixes #746
Mon May 28 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fix setup of LOADER_TYPE in sysconfig/bootloader LOADER_TYPE value for the grub2 bootloader depends on the use of EFI. This Fixes bsc#1094883
Mon May 28 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added documentation for config-cdroot archive
Mon May 28 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added support for config-cdroot archive The image description now allows an optional file named: config-cdroot.tar[.compression_postfix]. The file gets unpacked as user data for live and install ISO images. This allows users to add e.g license files or reference documentation to the ISO image. This Fixes #737
Mon May 28 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Verify file does not exist before creating symlink
Mon May 28 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add service dependencies in generators Correctly adding the initrd-root-fs.target service dependency to auto generated sysroot.mount for kiwi-live and kiwi-overlay dracut modules. Fixes #741
Mon May 28 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Do not create static dev nodes in root init For compatibility reasons kiwi created a set of static device nodes when initializing a new image root system. With the presence of devtmpfs this should no longer be needed. In addition the static dev node setup now also causes problems on filesystems like btrfs which was the reason to delete this code now. This Fixes bsc#1087104
Thu May 24 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Do not delete uncompressed base docker images Fixes #739
Wed May 16 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fix zypper add lock operations This commit fixes the arguments passed to zypper in add lock operations.
Tue May 15 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add correct GPL-3.0-or-later license Add the correct license reference in the spec License field Fixes #732
Tue May 15 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Make container compression a configuration option Change the ContainerBuilder class to evaluate on the configuration options to decide if the container archive should be compressed or not. By default the archive will be compressed, thus there is no change to the former behavior but can be setup in ~/.config/kiwi/config.yml as follows: container: - compress: none|xz This Fixes #725
Tue May 15 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Return file name after archive or compression call Extend the ArchiveTar and Compress classes such that their archiving and compression methods returns the result file name after the operation
Tue May 15 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Allow docker root import from uncompressed file Check the given file name for its compression format and only uncompress if a supported format could be detected. This Fixes #730
Mon May 14 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add additionaltags containerconfig attribute This commit adds `additionaltags` attribute, so multiple tags to a container image can be defined in a comma separated value. Fixes #713

Tue May 8 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update arm integration test Existing panda build was outdated and non functional. Move the test to a more popular target and write the image description to use technology matching the suse arm development effort. Target is now Rpi(64bit)
Tue May 8 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Use latest version of sphinx Formerly sphinx==1.6.7 was used because travis-sphinx failed with latest sphinx. Now travis-sphinx fails with 1.6.7 and I hope using latest sphinx will fix that

Mon May 7 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Refining the uninstall type implementation
Fri May 4 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add uninstall pacakges type This commit adds a new `uninstall` type for packages. Packages listed with this type will be removed by the package manager cleaning also any unneeded dependency. The removal is executed after running `config.sh`. Also in this commit `delete` type for packages is now executed after `uninstall` packages, meaing it also happens after `config.sh`. Fixes #625
Fri May 4 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Some simple code cleaning
Fri May 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed check for volume group in use The former implementation evaluates the output of the vgs command and set the volume group as in use if one of the listed volume groups on the host contains the group name set by the image description. This would also match if the group name set in the image description is e.g \'System\' and the a volume group on the host with name \'SystemVG\' exists. However a conflict only exists on exact match of the name. The proposed fix is to use the --select feature from vgs and let it show information on exact match of the vg_name field. The code in kiwi then just evaluates if the selection by vgs has a value or not. This Fixes #721
Fri May 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fix setup of kiwi_lvm profile variable kiwi_lvm was always set to true if a volume management system is in use. However it should only be set to true if the selected volume management system is lvm. The same applies to the kiwi_lvmgroup variable which also only makes sense if the lvm volume management system is used. This Fixes bsc#1090427
Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Extend test-image-azure integration test Use xfs as filesystem and set a tag to also test image tags
Thu Apr 26 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Use /dev/zero to really write a zero byte The cleanup of the 512 byte block for the vhdfixed tag was based on reading from /dev/null which does effectively nothing. As the block should be filled with zero bytes this patch changes the source from /dev/null to /dev/zero This was found by tests to reproduce the issue reported in bsc#1090953 but is not causing it
Tue Apr 24 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add test for the utils class StringToSize This commit adds a couple of unit tests for the StringToSize class.

Mon Apr 23 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Some improvements on size calculation This commit simplifies the unpartitioned area size calculation. Fixes #709 and it is related to fate#323874
Mon Apr 23 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Clearly separate unittest stage from deployment
Fri Apr 20 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Use travis stages feature for pypi deployment Problem ist that the deploy section is called for every item in the former matrix: setup. This means the pypi upload was triggered twice for the same archive which means one target always fails. In order to deploy only once travis provides a stages feature which is used in this commit
Fri Apr 20 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Adding unpartitioned size attribute This commit adds the possibility of setting some unpartitioned area after the systemdisl partition into the image. Fixes #709
Fri Apr 20 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed creation of machine settings file If no vmnic setup is present a request to iterator over a NoneType object is attempted and failed. This Fixes #710
Wed Apr 18 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed docstring :rtype: values In Python the string type name is str not string

Tue Apr 10 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup creation of vmware settings file The kiwi schema allows for multiple vmnic sections but kiwi only took the primary one into account. This patch uses all configured vmnic sections. This Fixes #688
Tue Apr 10 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Support lookup for fstab.append on fstab creation At the time kiwi creates the fstab with all required fields to boot the system it now also looks for an optional fstab.append file and appends its contents to the fstab file. This allows to setup custom fstab entries for filesystem mounts which are established outside of the kiwi image building process by e.g a service at first boot
Tue Apr 10 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Add auto release to pypi on release tags This will automatically release kiwi on pypi if a new tag in master is set. This happens when bumpversion is called followed by a push and push --tags. Only if the tag is pushed the travis deployment gets triggered. This Fixes #678
Mon Apr 9 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Change variable quoting for Rm/Rpm shell helpers The two methods exists to overlay their call with a logging facility. Thus it is ok and expected that the caller can pass arguments for the program e.g (Rm -rf foo) which resulted in (rm \'-rf foo\') leading to a runtime error.
Fri Apr 6 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fix default initrd_system values This commit fixes the default initrd_system value for some image types. Since this value is included in profile and potentially taken into account for some of the config script functions, it is important to have consistent values even when the image type has no initrd choice or it doesn\'t have initrd at all. Related to #689
Fri Apr 6 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Check partition table after cow part creation Proceed with the persistent write partition setup only if the cow partition could have been created successfully
Thu Apr 5 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed detection of disk node in live iso images If the live iso is booted as disk the initrd code needs to find the correct disk node pointing to the iso image. This was formerly done by checking if the populated disk devices contains an iso header with an application id. The information was obtained using the isoinfo tool. isoinfo is a tool provided by the obsolete and xorriso replaced cdrtools kit. In addition the lookup was unsafe because any iso with an application id would have been valid. Thus this patch changes the detection mechanism to use the volume id as it is used in the root assignment on the cmdline. The volume id is populated as device label for the assigned block device and can therefore be used as a unique id. The volume id itself is a configuration option in the image XML description. If not set the default is \'CDROM\'. The information can be obtained via blkid and therefore also eliminates the isoinfo requirement
Wed Apr 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup test-image-docker unresolvable state genisoimage seems no longer present in the distro
Wed Apr 4 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update etc/default/grub setup kiwi writes optional grub boot parameters to the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX variable in default/grub. This information is then picked up by grub2-mkconfig and written to grub.cfg However there is also another variable named GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT which according to the documentation should be used preferably. While it does not seem to matter for grub it matters for yast. Thus this patch changes the configuration variable and fixes bsc#1084117
Tue Apr 3 14:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed truncation of image when writing vhd tag When writing the vhd tag into a vhdfixed formatted image the image was opened with the wrong open bits \'wb\' and thus was truncated at the 64k offset. This patch fixes the open bits to allow in-place tag writing. This Fixes bsc#1077096
Tue Apr 3 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Make use of autoremove in Yum and Dnf to clean dependencies
Wed Mar 28 14:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Enable no forced deletion for dnf, yum and apt package managers This commit makes apt, yum and dnf support equivalent to zypper in terms of being capable to delete packages using the package manger tools (implies dependencies deletion is handled by the package manager) or deleting explicitly only listed packages using packager tools even if this implies breaking dependencies.
Fri Mar 23 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - XSL Auto update descriptions due to schema change
Fri Mar 23 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Delete obsolete hybrid attribute from type Any iso image we create will be a hybrid image. That was already the default for any install iso image and was a configuration option for live images. The optional selection only existed for systems which do not provide tools to make an iso hybrid. All distributions kiwi supports provides this capabilities and there is no good reason why a live or install iso should not be hybrid and bootable as iso and as disk. Also the boot in disk mode became the preferred boot method for the majority of our users which requires to provide a hybrid iso
Thu Mar 22 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add efiparttable type attribute This commit allows to choose the partition table type for efi firmwares using the efiparttable type attribute. Fixes #638
Thu Mar 22 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update spec file to require xorriso
Thu Mar 22 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Cleanup hybrid call and use of iso tool options The extra isohybrid call is only needed if the mkisofs tool category is used. Thus it should be only visible at the place where the isofs is created and not as an extra step in the builder tasks. Additionally the handling of extra options was mkisofs specific and should be better done as a common meta_data record. The tool specific options should only appear in the tool specific class implementations
Thu Mar 22 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Allow to configure iso tool category Switch to xorriso by default but allow to setup cdrtools in the runtime configuration file
Wed Mar 21 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Remove xml_parse.py shebang in spec It removes the shebang from the autogenerated file and also removes the exception in rpmlint to ignore non-executable-script warning. Fixes #666
Mon Mar 19 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Remove unneeded shebangs from dracut modules Fixes #668
Mon Mar 19 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added IsoToolsXorrIso class As an alternative to mkisofs/genisoimage there is now the IsoToolsXorrIso class which implements the IsoTools interface by using xorriso. This Fixes #635
Mon Mar 19 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update package MANIFEST.in Include new iso_tools directory
Fri Mar 16 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Added iso_tools api documentation

Fri Mar 16 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Update FSF address The address has been taken from the header example published here https://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.html Fixes #667
Fri Mar 16 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Add create_iso method to iso_tools api
Thu Mar 15 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Seperate iso tool handling into its own namespace The Iso class only provides generic helper methods around the creation of ISO filesystems. For the creation of the filesystem itself we encapsulate the tool parameter handling into its own class. For the option compatible mkisofs/genisoimage tools the IsoToolsCdrTools class exists. This allows to create e.g IsoToolsXorrIso class as a future implementation
Thu Mar 15 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Refactor iso helper tools There are several tools available to build iso images. genisoimage, mkisofs and also xorriso. The history of the tools shows them to be used in the range of available Linux distributions. Thus kiwi contains an abstraction layer to support them but assumed they are option compatible. With the xorriso implementation this is no longer correct and therefore a refactoring of the iso tools api is required before support for xorriso can be added. This references Issue #635
Wed Mar 14 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Make build type mandatory in XMLState
Wed Mar 14 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - kiwi_inode_size value is no longer hardcoded in more than one place

Tue Mar 13 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Tell plymouth to quit only if a dialog is called In case of a dialog kiwi uses the dialog program which conflicts with the plymouth splash system. Thus we tell plymouth to stop This patch changes the request to be send to plymouth prior to a dialog call and not in general
Mon Mar 12 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update bootloader console for oem test image Set bootloader_console=\"serial\" for the oem test image to allow testing in the Kanku CI
Mon Mar 12 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add profile dependencies With this commit the profile can include other profiles as a dependency. This way it is possible build an image defined by multiple profiles by just calling a single composed profile from the command line. Fixes #658
Fri Mar 9 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Disable multipath from oem build test
Fri Mar 9 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup setup of root_filesystem_is_multipath The variable is set to a boolean value or None. If set to False due to a configuration of oem-multipath-scan this will cause the dracut multipath module to be omitted. In any other case the presence of the multipath module decides whether it will be included into the dracut generated initrd or not.
Fri Mar 9 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup python-kiwi base package requires There is no need for the base package to require multipath. Those tools are only needed for dracut modules
Thu Mar 8 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Use dracut modules based on feature use As the kiwi build dracut initrd is a generic one which includes all installed dracut modules we missed a way to exclude modules from beeing incorporated even if we know it would not be needed. One example is the multipath module which would only be useful if the oem multipath scan is configured in the image description
Wed Mar 7 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update test-image-oem build Create hostonly dracut initrd on first boot and replace kiwi\'s grub config by the result of grub2-mkconfig
Wed Mar 7 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Delete invalid motd file from build tests
Wed Mar 7 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Prepare test-image-oem build test for Kanku Activate unattended mode and preselect the installation target Also specify a fixed swapsize value to be independent of the host main memory which is used to calculate swap if no size is specified
Tue Mar 6 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed btrfs search path in earlyboot script If kiwi generates its own efi image for the boot process it does not setup the btrfs relative path setup in the earlyboot script embedded into the generated efi image. This has a bad impact on the file search because the btrfs setup done in kiwi puts root below the AATT volume which we then need to specify of the relative lookup is not activated. Fixes bsc#1082155
Mon Mar 5 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Use LABEL for the swap partition If multipath and device maps are active the fstab entry should use the LABEL reference. Systemd calls swapon and it only works properly with multipath devices when LABEL reference is used or calling directly on the /dev/dm- * device file.
Sat Mar 3 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Bump version: 9.13.2 → 9.13.3
Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - The order of the options for mkisofs matters Setting -eltorito-platform after -b causes mkisofs to fail
Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Resize partition table after image resize The command \'kiwi image resize\' allows to resize the size of a disk image. Depending on the partition table type it is also required to resize the partition table inside of the image to let the file size change become effective This Fixes #534
Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2018 MichalMarek1AATTeaton.com - APT: Support patternType in the bootstrap phase With patternType=\"onlyRequired\" (the default), run debootstrap with --variant=minbase to install only essential packages. With patternType=\"plusRecommended\", let debootstrap also install important packages. This is not exactly what the patternType keyword means with other targets, but it allows to choose between an absolutely minimal image and a small but usable system.
Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Reactivate device mappings after repart. Fixes #645 This commit recreates removed device maps and triggers again systemd generators in order to adapt again device units to the new context. Fixes #645
Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Refactor ovftool check The way this was done mask errors from the call with the check if the tool exists on the host. This patch refactors this and makes clear where we check for the tool to be installed and where we actually call it
Fri Mar 2 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Extend has_option_in_help to also check error data
Thu Mar 1 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Check if isotool supports eltorito-platform option Along with the change there is a small refactoring to populate the iso tool search to the public api of the Iso class
Thu Mar 1 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Set eltorito-platform for efi The default eltorito platform is set to \"x86_64 PC\", however in an alternative bootloader spec for efi this would be the wrong platform spec. This patch adds the correct platform to the alt-boot setup for efi. References #643
Wed Feb 28 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup obs test status helper Use osc results output to get better status information
Wed Feb 28 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed get_free_disk_bytes in dracut kiwi-lib The method used any device from the lsblk output, but it can happen that some device nodes with different name point to the same physical device. The method would then calculate the free space wrong. This patch takes the PARTUUID value into account to make sure any partition device size is used only once. This Fixes #648
Tue Feb 27 13:00:00 2018 tom_schrAATTweb.de - Use pytest instead of py.test From pytest 3.0, it is recommended to use \"pytest\" as the main command. The use of \"py.test\" is deprecated and is potentially removed in the future.
Tue Feb 27 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update tox setup Add python 3.6 target and activate it for the travis and the local make targets Use major python version for the check(flake) and doc targets where the interpreter minor version is not primarily important This references #641

Thu Feb 22 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Allow arch attribute for profiles specification A profile could be relevant for only a specific architecture. There was no way to express that in the XML description. With the change in this commit a specification like the following is possible: Profile A is only usable on the aarch64 architecture, whereas profile B would be usable on all architectures.
* Selecting an arch specific profile from the commandline via the --profile option on a system which is not of that architecture will result in an error message.
* Using the import=\"true\" attribute in the definition for an arch specific profile will cause the import of that profile only on that architecture and silently ignore the import on any other architecture This Fixes #637
Thu Feb 22 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update build-test descriptions for Kanku As part of the buildservice there is now also a CI system called Kanku which allows for image boot/run tests. The only requirement on the image level which is missing in our build test descriptions is the setup of the serial console. This patch updates those image descriptions which could be tested by kanku to provide a serial console at boot time. The plan is that our build-test images automatically gets boot tested by the Kanku CI. This should include boot, console-login, reboot, console login, shutdown. The required job description to do this needs to be worked out together with the Kanku team
Tue Feb 20 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Adding publisher attribute for ISOs This commit adds the \'publisher\' attribute in type only for ISO image type. It sets the publisher name of the resulting ISO. Fixes #630
Tue Feb 20 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed yum vs. yum-deprecated binary lookup When using the yum package manager it could be either provided as yum or yum-deprecated binary. Because of this the search method to find the binary needs to know the context from which the call is performed. This could be either the host system or the created image root. This Fixes #624
Tue Feb 20 13:00:00 2018 MichalMarek1AATTeaton.com - APT: Run debootstrap with --variant=minbase This selects only packages with Priority: required, which is more in line with what the other package managers are doing. A patch for kiwi-descriptions has been submitted to adapt to this new behavior.
Fri Feb 16 13:00:00 2018 agrafAATTsuse.de - Do not emit linuxefi/initrdefi on non-x86 platforms Grub wants to have linuxefi/initrdefi commands to execute Linux via the UEFI calling convention on x86. However, all other platforms simply use the normal linux/initrd commands, because there grub assumes that an EFI grub wants to run an EFI payload. Reflect this architecture difference in the generated grub configuration. Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf
Thu Feb 15 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup grub2 theme setup The presence of a background file was mandatory for kiwi to use the theme. But the background information is optional
Wed Feb 14 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Deleted obsolete boot descriptions The custom kiwi boot descriptions has been moved into the kiwi-descriptions github repo and builds the compat package kiwi-boot-descriptions from there. The build of the boot image(initrd) is done by dracut and the dracut module packages provided by kiwi. The classic custom boot descriptions can still be used as alternative method if the above package is installed. Related to Issue #576
Tue Feb 13 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Create compatible boot options The boot option root=install:CDLABEL= is mandatory for install images which uses the dracut initrd system. But for the custom kiwi oemboot descriptions this is causing a problem when detecting the install device. Thus the above boot option is only applied for the initrd system which actually makes use of it
Tue Feb 13 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update boot description search path With the move of the boot descriptions in its own package the kiwi search path needs to be adapted to look for boot descriptions in /usr/share/kiwi/custom_boot. In addition a runtime check to exit early if the boot description could not be found or is not specified will be provided. Related to Issue #576
Tue Feb 13 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Update the docs to the current example present in kiwi-descriptions
Mon Feb 12 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Update .virtualenv.dev-requirements.txt sphinx 1.7.0 is not compatible with travis-sphinx thus we stick with 1.6.7 until travis-sphinx followed the sphinx changes
Mon Feb 12 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Add restrictions to Path.remove_hierarchy When an iso file is used as repo, this iso will be loop mounted on the host and bind mounted into the image root as long as the image builds. When the mount is released a recursive cleanup of the complete path happens. This is done by calling Path.remove_hierarchy. However if a sub path of the mount path contains a system root directory which is mandatory for the Linux root system it is not allowed to be deleted even if it is empty at the time of the mount cleanup. Thus this patch adds a lookup for protected directory names and only runs the recursive deletion as long as no protected member is part of the path. This fixes bsc#1080301
Sat Feb 10 13:00:00 2018 ngompaAATTdatto.com - Initial support for building Debian/Ubuntu packages in spec This adds support for producing the main kiwi package as well as the packages for the dracut modules to be used when building Debian-based distribution images with KIWI. The Debian/Ubuntu package is built using debbuild: https://github.com/ascherer/debbuild
Fri Feb 9 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed build_pxe_root_filesystem documentation The article still used filename references from v7 code stream This patch updates the docs to match the sources it refers to

Tue Jan 30 13:00:00 2018 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Remove vmdk metadata update procedure This commit removes the method _update_vmdk_descriptor from DiskFormatVmdk class. The code part causes vmdk format issues in current up to date hipervisors such as VMWarePlayer 14 or Virtualbox 5.2. Removing this code does not produce any failure, at most can only imply loosing some features provided by open-vm-tools package. Fixes #591
Tue Jan 30 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed use of profile variables in kiwi-dump module The profile environment was not imported in the dracut kiwi-dump module. Thus custom settings like oem-unattended did not had an effect

Fri Jan 26 13:00:00 2018 MichalMarek1AATTeaton.com - flake8: Use a more conservative max-complexity setting Set the default threshold to 12 and annotate the outliers with \"noqa: C901\". Most of the cases are due to lack of switch statement in python, but there are some worth titying up. Now we can grep for them :).
Fri Jan 26 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Make sure there are no busy devices on reboot If the dracut kiwi-repart module skips the repartition step because the disk was already repartitioned it leaves devices in busy state which leads to a rescue shell at the system mount stage

Thu Jan 25 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Don\'t lookup zImage symlink Due to the workaround to lookup the gzip compressed variant of a zImage to find its version, it\'s required to find the full name of the zImage in order to rematch the gzip variant. Looking at the zImage link will make this to fail because there is no vmlinux link
Thu Jan 25 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed kernel version check for zImage kernels build as zImage contains the decompressor code as part of the kernel image and could be therefore compressed by any possible compression algorithm. In this case we assume/hope that there is also a standard gz compressed vmlinux version of the kernel available and check this one instead of the zImage variant. Fixes #587

Wed Jan 24 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed installation image builder Use get_boot_names from BootImage instance to ask for the name of the initrd instead of constructing this information from static values. The name of the initrd is different per distro and toolkit
Wed Jan 24 13:00:00 2018 msAATTsuse.de - Provide a get_boot_names method in boot classes The naming schema for an initrd file name depends on the boot image type as well as on the underlaying initrd creation toolkit. In order to encapsulate that in a clear interface the code to know about the correct names has been moved into the classes which are responsible for it and out of the builder/disk class
Wed Jan 24 13:00:00 2018 rjschweiAATTsuse.com - Image name generation for GCE images + Fix the name generation for GCE images. The implementation assumed that GCE images are of a type that use a kiwi generated initrd, looking for image name components based on the boot attribute in the type element. This assumption is not correct, use the name provided in the XML to compose the image name.

Tue Dec 19 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Omit kiwi-repart dracut module in oemboot initrd KIWI\'s oemboot initrd with initrd_system=\"dracut\" together with installiso=\"true\" requires to have dracut-kiwi-oem-repart package installed in the system, thus it ends up also being included in the recreated dracut initrd after booting the oemboot initrd from the installation iso. This kiwi-repart module causes a boot failure in that case since no .profile file is present, moreover, it has no sense to run it at that stage, since the disk is already reparted by the oemboot code. This commit allows installiso=\"true\" and initrd_system=\"dracut\" to play well together.
Fri Dec 15 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Improve locale pattern in schema Now the locale pattern in the schema also supports POSIX. Note that POSIX will be only accepted if listed in the first place of the comma separated list. This commit fixes #570
Wed Dec 13 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Allow to choose dracut live module There is the standard dracut dmsquash-live module based on the device mapper technology and the kiwi-live module based on the overlayfs technology. The setup of the live iso structure in kiwi is compatible to both modules. Thus it makes sense to allow to choose the technology via the flags attribute Please note both modules supports a different set of live features. This Fixes #568

This made kiwi consume insane amounts of memory during the XSLT transform step. While this may be a bug in my version of lxml, we do not transform comments on processing instructions in the conversion templates, so the easiest solution is not to match them. Signed-off-by: Michal Marek
Mon Dec 4 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Make sure toplevel target dir keeps permissions When syncing data via rsync we make sure the toplevel target directory the data gets synced to does not change it\'s origin permissions. This Fixes #557

Tue Nov 7 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed blocksize setup in losetup The -L option was used to set the blocksize value for losetup However there is an option name clash between suse util-linux and upstream which now leads to the problem that option -L has changed its meaning and actually means --nooverlap which completely breaks the call in kiwi. This patch changes the call to use the long form --logical-blocksize. This Fixes bsc#1066873

Wed Sep 27 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Make sure xz options are used with pxe tarball The tar command used in the pxe builder did not utilize threading and/or the xz options provided by an optional kiwi config file. This Fixes #507

Mon Sep 11 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed kernelList function The kernelList function searches for the installed kernels and applies the corresponding initrd name. The information the method provides is used in case of a custom initrd which should be used instead of the result of dracut. When requesting the use of the kiwi firsboot initrd also in the system via the element, the information from the list is used to correctly link the kiwi initrd named initrd.vmx to the expected name of the system as dracut would create it. The creation of the list was broken which lead to an empty list and the after effect that the system was not able to reboot. This Fixes #483
Mon Sep 11 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Update oemboot/rhel-07.0 due to isolinux changes With the move of the isolinux setup operation into the python code and the deletion of the old code from the images.sh scripts it\'s required to keep syslinux in the boot image otherwise the builder can\'t find it when explicitly deleted before the isolinux setup

Wed Sep 6 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Make get_initrd_system a state method Make sure the default initrd_system is set to dracut for the vmx image type and to kiwi if no initrd_system is specified. This allows to simplify other code parts as we can trust there is a value set
Wed Sep 6 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Update schematron rules for boot and initrd_system The boot and initrd_system attributes are no longer used by the vmx image type and are therefore not allowed anymore.
Wed Sep 6 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added runtime checks for overlay disk images Checking if the dracut-kiwi-overlay package will be installed as part of the build and also for the supported EFI setup since the EFI secure boot setup would try to perform changes on the filesystem which is a readonly squashfs, this is not supported
Tue Sep 5 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fix isohybrid call isohybrid errors printed on stderr were not treated as fatal but should be treated as such. In addition isohybrid should distinguish for efi setup according to the efi setup of the image itself
Tue Sep 5 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Support overlay disk images via dracut Using the kiwi-overlay module to boot up systems configured with the overlayroot=\"true\" attribute in the system image XML configuration. Fixes #65
Sun Sep 3 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Delete isoboot descriptions Live ISO boot is now fully integrated with dracut
Sun Sep 3 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added runtime check for dracut module on live iso Live ISO images uses a dracut initrd to boot and requires the KIWI provided kiwi-live dracut module to be installed at the time dracut is called. Thus this runtime check examines if the required package is part of the package list in the image description
Fri Sep 1 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include the source label in container images This commit fixes bsc#1055542, it includes the DISTURL parameter as a label into the container metadata when the build happens inside the buildservice. The new label included is named:

Wed Aug 23 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Update allowed values for iso image attribute With the move to dracut only the options implemented for the kiwi-live dracut module are available
Tue Aug 22 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Move to dracut for live ISO images Instead of the kiwi isoboot layout the live layout has been changed to follow the rules of the live system support offered by dracut. The initrd used to boot up the system is now a dracut generated initrd and can be customized via the \'flags\' attribute in the kiwi XML description. In order to meet the kiwi live requirements a custom dracut module called kiwi-live is provided along with the changes in kiwi. This Fixes #470
Fri Aug 11 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added handling of formatoptions attribute Custom disk format options passed in the formatoptions attribute were not handled. In addition options with a value passed to qemu were handled in the wrong way. This commit addresses both problems and Fixes #463

Wed Aug 9 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fix space calculation for lvm volumes It is required to take the other configured volumes into account in order to solve the problem of nested volumes. The size of e.g the root volume must be reduced by the size other volumes inside of the root volume needs. This is especially required if the root volume is not the fullsize volume
Tue Aug 8 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed setup.py requirements record PyYAML is required by KIWI

Tue Aug 1 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Update expected compatible major version every version of umoci/skopeo <= major v1.x.x is expected to work with the implementation used in kiwi
Tue Aug 1 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Extend scope of check_docker_tool_chain_installed The runtime check only checks for the presence of the docker tools umoci and skopeo but as we are expecting incompatible api changes in the next major version release the check has been extended to look at the major versions of the installed tools as well. Fixes #454

Thu Jul 27 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Remove xml_state.get_build_type_mediacheck method The method was not needed since a direct call to xml_state.build_type.get_mediacheck was already producing an equivalent output (True, False or None), where \'None\' can be easily treated in the same way as False.
Thu Jul 27 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add runtimecheck for mediacheck attribute on non x86 hosts This commit rearranges some method and variable names and includes a new runtimecheck to ensure the mediacheck attribute is not set when building non x86 images. Patch related to bsc#1049304

Wed Jul 26 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Adding mediacheck menu entry for liveCDs This commit adds the checkiso attribute in type tag, only available for iso image types. Checkiso is boolean that determines the presence of0 a Mediacheck menu entry or not in the bootloader. This patch is related to bsc#1049304
Tue Jul 25 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup encoding handling for profile file If an element like displayname or oem-boot-title contains characters outside of the ascii table this causes trouble when kiwi writes out the profile file and the code is called through python2. The reason here is that the default encoding on write() (and other methods) is set to ascii in python2 and when it receives unicode characters outside of the ascii spec a UnicodeEncodeError is thrown. Now all of kiwi is using Unicode which means this does not produce a problem when calling the code through python3 because the default encoding is utf-8 there. This patch introduces a method which allows to change python\'s default encoding and calls it at the code point where we write the profile because we got unicode and we want to write unicode in any case. This fixes at least one situation for python2-kiwi to allow the use of non ascii characters in the XML setup. If other places will be found the same approach should allow to fix it for python2
Tue Jul 25 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Add LVM overhead for lvm based images LVM itself requires metadata stored in the metadata block kiwi did not take a size value for this data into account

Mon Jul 24 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Evaluate file strip before kernel strip Information from the optional section was handled as part of the suseStripInitrd method which is called after suseStripKernel. However if a request to delete a driver file is part of the above mentioned strip section the checks for the driver dependency and also for potential superfluous firmware is not applied. Thus the evaluation of the section happens earlier in the suseStripKernel method. Fixes #442
Mon Jul 24 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added ec2 integration test build to obs status
Mon Jul 24 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added Xen setup runtime validation Added check_xen_uniquely_setup_as_server_or_guest runtime check to check for a unique dom0 or domU guest setup Fixes #429

Fri Jul 14 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - More comfort in calling with compat arguments In addition to the \'kiwi --compat -- ...\' style we also support calling the kiwi compat mode as a service via \'kiwi compat ...\' The preferred way of calling kiwi with legacy options is via the new compat service. Thus the documentation also changed to no longer mention the --compat option but it still exists for compatibility reasons. Fixes #407
Fri Jul 14 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Allow use of more fine grain ignore repos options The meaning of the --ignore-repos option has changed back to ignore all configured repositories. A new option named --ignore-repos-used-for-build has been added which allows to ignore all except imageonly repositories. The command manual pages has been changed to document the options. This Fixes #410
Fri Jul 14 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Cleanup use of python interpreter invocation Prevent strict call of a specific version of the python interpreter. All code has been written to work with py2 and py3 thus the venv environment setup should decide what version a call of python is. Fixes #424
Thu Jul 13 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Make sure the KIWI buildroot has the /.buildenv file This commit makes sure the that the KIWI build root will always contain the /.buildenv file. Fixes #421
Thu Jul 13 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include .buildenv file inside the buildroot With this patch if KIWI is running inside the buildservice the /.buildenv file is copied from the build environment to the build root of KIWI. At installation time some packages test the existance of this file in order to know if they are being installed inside the buildservice or not. Fixes #421
Tue Jul 11 14:00:00 2017 davidcassanyAATTgmail.com - Fix url validation in buildservice (#420) This patch changes the remote URL validation strategy when running inside the build service. By design, inside the build service build environment connections to the outside world are not allowed, thus any validation attempting to do that will fail. With this patch, when running inside the build service, KIWI will not try to test if any download URL is reachable. Fixes #418
Mon Jul 10 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Refactor Uri is_public method Don\'t call a nested is_remote from is_public, instead the method was rewritten to explicitly cover the responsibility to check under which conditions we treat an uri as publicly available or not
Sun Jul 9 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed Uri is_remote method If called inside of the buildservice the obs uri type is not a remote uri because the translation ends in a local path

Mon Jul 3 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Accept an empty string as a repo priority xml_parse code is autogenerated, thus no changes there should be considered. When adding a repository from the command line it can happen that the repository priority is mapped to an empty instead to a None valuei, when the priority is not specifically set. xml_parse will only support a parseable string to int or a None value as the default option, so, if an empty string is used, it throws an exception. With the current patch anything that cannot be casted to an int, will be considered as None. Fixes #408
Mon Jul 3 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Move check_image_include_repos_http_resolvable Call the check_image_include_repos_http_resolvable runtime check after the check and setup for the obs runtime environment. In case of obs uri types and a kiwi build outside of the buildservice those source locations could be translated into a public url and thus allow for use with the imageinclude attribute. However building inside of the buildservice maps those to a local path which is private to the used worked instance. In such a case the obs uri type is translated into a suse uri type and running the check_image_include_repos_http_resolvable after that translation will run from the translated and thus correct source uri information

This way imageonly is prepared to be used in the buildservice even when using the \'obsrepositories:/\' reference style.
Fri Jun 23 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Build schema documentation with Oxygen Given there is a valid Oxygen license owned by the company as described in https://www.oxygenxml.com/oxygen_scripting.html the schema documentation can be created using Oxygen. This commit allows building the schema docs with alternative doc builders and in case of Oxygen would change the way the schema docs are generated in the following way: 1. Install Oxygen and setup the license to activate the tool 2. Setup the KIWI development shell environment to export the schema_tool variable to point to the schemaDocumentation.sh script provided by the Oxygen installation export oxygen_tool=/path/to/Oxygen/schemaDocumentation.sh 3. In any case of a schema change manually call: tox -e schema This step was done before as part of the tox doc target but can\'t be done automatically because it would require a correctly licensed Oxygen installation in the travis environment. Thus the result data has to be part of the pull request 4. Build the documentation and review the result tox -e doc 5. Create the pull request

Wed Jun 14 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Consider only repositories used for build in image info This commit makes sure that the repositories marked with imageonly flag are not included in the packages solve procedure. This is related to #362
Wed Jun 14 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Removing has_repositories_marked_as_imageinclude method With the current repository management this method is not required anymore, since the setup repositories method does not modify the image if no repositories are present. It is related to #305 and #191
Tue Jun 13 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed typo in isoboot/fedora-25.0 It does not really matter because the package manager setup is inherited from the system image XML configuration to the boot image, but for consistency it should be correct in the isoboot description too
Tue Jun 13 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Change to more explicit method names
Mon Jun 12 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Cleanup use of suseGFXBoot regarding grub The shell method suseGFXBoot from the config/functions contains code which should be better moved to the python code base dealing with the bootloader configuration. In this commit all grub parts of it has been moved to the BootLoaderConfigGrub2 class
Mon Jun 12 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Cleanup isoboot descriptions There is no need to install bootloader packages to the initrd, all information regarding the bootloader setup is taken from the system root directory
Mon Jun 12 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup iso image builder(s) lookup path Don\'t lookup bootloader required files in the boot image root directory. Those needs to be looked up in the system image root directory
Mon Jun 12 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Refactor boot image factory Make sure the root directory of the base image is always accessible by any boot image type for consistency. In addition introduce a post_init method which explicitly setup the boot image root directory as needed for the selected boot image type and document it as such
Mon Jun 12 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include imageonly attribute for repositories This commit adds imageonly attribute support for the repository element. imageonly is a boolean attribute that if true indicates that the repository is no used for the build but needs to be configured for the resulting image. Fixes #362
Fri Jun 9 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup use of syslinux v6 modules There is support for library loading in syslinux modules which requires to provide the lib modules when available. This Fixes #351
Fri Jun 9 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Update rpm-check-signatures documentation
Fri Jun 9 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fix default location repository config file for apt This commit fixes the apt config file management for default locations. The template subsitution always needs to be executed providing all the substitution parameters, as it does not make any kind of default assumption when parameters are missing. Fixes #370
Fri Jun 9 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Revert \"Refactor detection code for grub directory name\" The former detection of the grub directory name in boot was correct whereas the new code introduced a problem. This reverts commit b3e4b871d52da2b5ab579d592ccc7ae39de75339. This Fixes #371
Thu Jun 8 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include repository_gpgcheck and package_gpgcheck documentation
Thu Jun 8 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Improve package/repository signature checking setup This commit adds repository_gpgcheck and package_gpgcheck attributes to the repository tag in schema. With this change each repository can be configured individualy to enable repository signatures check and/or enable signature package check. The configuration is done at repository level, thus it is not conflicting with the wide package manager configuration flag . Fixes #358
Thu Jun 8 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Update PXE building chapter Redesign PXE building chapter to follow style guide. Thanks to Thomas Schraitle for review and additional contributions to this topic. This Fixes #323

Thu Jun 8 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Refactor detection code for grub directory name The method get_grub_boot_directory_name was based on checking for the name of the grub2 install tool, but this is not always reliable because the name of the grub2 install tool has no direct connection to the grub2 path. The method changes in a way that it checks for the presence of the grub2 installation directory which is /usr/lib/grub or /usr/lib/grub2. Depending on the result the location in boot is /boot/grub or /boot/grub2 which seems to be a more reliable check
Wed Jun 7 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup detection of grub directory name In order to put grub data to boot/grub2 or boot/grub a check for the grub2-tool vs. grub-tool name is performed. This requires access to the image root directory on a file basis which is not always applicable. When setting up the grub bootloader for e.g EFI boot on an iso image the rootfs can\'t be directly accessed because the iso image contains the rootfs in a compressed format. This commit refactors the check to be generic for all image types
Wed Jun 7 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup EFI setup for iso images The embedded efi fat image on the iso filesystem must follow the same rules compared to the setup on a disk
Wed Jun 7 14:00:00 2017 tomsAATTsuse.de - Fix docstring and apply ReST markup Avoids the the following warning: Definition list ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent. Docstring contains ReST markup from http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/domains.html#cross-referencing-python-objects

Thu Jun 1 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup repository setup for yum Yum cannot handle spaces between the key and the value. This patch provides a method to tell ConfigParser to use no spaces for the \'=\' delimiter and thus Fixes #357
Thu Jun 1 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Reactivate warnings report in pytest
Thu Jun 1 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup kernel name lookup If multiple abi compatible kernel module packages are installed the kernel version of the boot kernel could be different from the kernel module versions. In order to find the boot kernel all kernel versions found must be checked. Fixes #355
Thu Jun 1 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fix/workaround invalid xsd pattern translation The data structures are auto generated by the generateDS tool which works nicely except for the arch-name xsd pattern used in the RelaxNG schema. For some reason the used regular expression is translated by generateDS into a python expression not matching the original expression from the schema. The result is an invalid python warning message after the schema has successfully validated the arch string. The problem has been reported to the generateDS developer. As long as their is no fix available in generateDS the following workaround in kiwi applies: The original xs:token pattern validation will be disabled on the generateDS level and applies only to the schema. This Fixes #347
Wed May 31 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Allow vendor specific grub config file location On e.g Fedora systems the EFI grub config file for secure boot systems is expected to be located in the vendor specific efi boot directory from where the shim loader gets loaded by the firmware
Wed May 31 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Some fine tune updates

* Typo correction
Wed May 31 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include signing-key feature for boot images This commit extends the behavior of --signing-key options in order to import the provided key file into the boot image, in addition to the regular image root tree. Related to #342
Tue May 30 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fix use of pre requires in spec file
Tue May 30 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup working dir for editboot scripts editbootconfig and editbootinstall scripts needs to be called from within the correct directory to allow access to the written bootloader config files. For live images the working directory was set to the wrong place. This Fixes #353
Mon May 29 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - remove duplicated code from dhclient setup IPADDR is assigned within dhclientImportInfo original patch by Dinar Valeev

Sun May 28 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed pre-req for kiwi-pxeboot subpackage the binaries groupadd and useradd used in the preinstall scriptlet and provided by the shadow package needs a pre requirement on shadow to make sure they exist when the package gets installed. Fixes (bsc#1040256)
Fri May 26 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fix existing root check, fixes #349 This commit fixes the validation of an existing root directory for the command \'system build\'. System build used to create the root directory before performing the root existance check, thus the check was always failing in any case. The root directory is created inside the RootInit class within the \'create\' method. Fixes #349
Wed May 24 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added fallback setup for grub secure boot The current implementation is based on the presence of the shim-install tool. This tool does not exist on all distributions. In case shim-install is not present a kiwi fallback solution applies. Fixes #337
Wed May 24 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Extend --signing-key to Apt package manager This commit extends support for --siging-key to the Apt package manager. However it has only been included for the chrooted operations, as current implementation of the bootstrap procedure does not provide signature check capabilities. Related to #342
Wed May 24 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Extend --signing-key option to Yum and Dnf This commit extends the --signing-key options support to Yum and Dnf package managers. In addition, signature check for repositories had to be disabled for Yum and Dnf, as kiwi unrelated issues were found while testing. Nevertheless, package signature checks are fully functional. Related to #342
Wed May 24 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add --signing-key option This commit adds --signing-key option which sets a key file to import into the package manager trusted keys database. This commit adds this flag support only for zypper. Fixes #342
Tue May 23 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Don\'t print warning report The auto generated xml_parse.py uses the python warnings module The unit tests uses the coverage module in py.test to create a report. The latest py.test update now also creates a warnings report which is unwanted because some of the unit tests intentionally causes the creation of a warning as the expected result but we don\'t want to see that in a py.test warnings report. Therfore this patch switches off the creation of that warnings report
Tue May 23 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Update manual page of build command Add information for --allow-existing-root option
Tue May 23 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup default behavior of build command The build command automatically used an existing root tree from a former build attempt. However this could cause an inconsistent image if the former build root was not based on the same image type setup. Thus it is better to allow this only if the --allow-existing-root option is specified along with the build command call
Tue May 23 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixed alpha sorting of options
Tue May 23 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Complete zypper cache cleanup also the raw and solv cache needs to be deleted

Mon May 22 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added --clear-cache option The system prepare and build commands now provides the option --clear-cache which deletes all cache data associated with the repositories to build the image. This Fixes #341
Mon May 22 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Let dracut create a compressed initrd dracut was called in a way to create an uncompressed initrd archive and kiwi later runs the xz compression on it. That way the default compression parameters used by dracut get lost. Fixes #335
Fri May 19 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Improve rpm-check-signatures support This commit ensures the signatures are checked for both: the repository and the rpm package. It applies for zypper, dnf and yum package managers.
Fri May 19 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Fixup boot-load-size for efi loader in iso Pass the real boot-load-size of the used loader as number of 512byte blocks to the iso creation call. Related to (bsc#939456)

Thu May 18 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Added EC2 image primary setup information
Thu May 18 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - Map partition ID\'s from sgdisk to lowercase
Thu May 18 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.de - rework building virtual disk image chapter Adapt to style as used in the live iso chapter and add references to low level topics regarding the setup of the image to work in the public cloud. Related to #323
Wed May 17 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Get the first two characters of the gdisk partition code output According to the gdisk documentation the gdisk maps the partitions IDs to the MBR codes, but they are multiplied by 0x0100 in hexa. Meaning 0x8300 code is equivalent to 0x83 in MBR. This commit only considers the first two characters of the sgdisk partition code output. With this change the partition types are comparable, regardless of using MBR or GPT.
Wed May 17 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fixes OEM deployments on a free partition, bnc#1039469 This commit updates the boot code for oem images. In case oem-partition-install flag was set, the boot code was not capable to find an appropriate partition due to not attaching properly the raw image as a loopback device. KIWI was calling \'losetup\' command with wrong arguments. Fixes bnc#1039469
Tue May 16 14:00:00 2017 ngompaAATTdatto.com - Use \'yum-deprecated\' if it exists when using Yum On Fedora and Mageia systems, the Yum package manager binary is named \'yum-deprecated\', and \'yum\' redirects to DNF. This is a problem for being able to build images of Linux systems that use Yum as its package manager, like RHEL/CentOS 7. So, in order to ensure we use the right package manager, we check for the \'yum-deprecated\' binary and use it if it exists.
Tue May 16 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Restructure low level topic (iso_to_usb) The low level topic references information from the base topic. In this case the name of the previously built image. I think we should provide information on each low level topic which references information from a base topic.
Mon May 15 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Handle rpm-check-signatures flag for each package manager This commit adds support for the rpm-check-signatures flag, which sets the package manager to verify or not each package signature. By default KIWI assumes no gpg checks are done.
Mon May 15 14:00:00 2017 tomsAATTsuse.de - Separate low-level topics (dumping)
* Separate the high-level (building) from the low-level part (dumping)
* Introduce a subsection (\"Working with Images\"); not sure, if this is useful under \"Building Images\"
* Enhance with some (general) advise about booting from USB
Mon May 15 14:00:00 2017 tomsAATTsuse.de - Provide missing _hybrid_iso label
Mon May 15 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup check_target_directory_not_in_shared_cache The runtime check compared the given target path if it starts with the cache directory /var/cache/kiwi. This however also matches for e.g /var/cache/kiwi-foo which would be a valid target directory. This patch changes the matcher in a way to really check if the target directory points to the same cache directory structure.
Fri May 12 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Set default dracut output format to match upstream
Fri May 12 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added dracut output file format detection Unfortunately the dracut initrd output file format varies between the different Linux distributions. Tools like lsinitrd, and also grub2 rely on the initrd output file to be in that format. Thus when kiwi uses dracut the same file format should be used all over the place in order to stay compatible with what the distribution does. Fixes #325
Fri May 12 14:00:00 2017 tomsAATTsuse.de - Revised example for issue #323
* Add abstract (use `.. sidebar`, not sure if we should use it)
* Collect all concept oriented text in the beginning
* Introduce procedure and create steps
* Remove lonely subsection and combine it with the procedure TODO:
* Review
* Decide, if `.. sidebar` is ok (or should we better use `.. topic`?)
Thu May 11 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Update build docker images documentation This commit includes steps to install umoci and skopeo, descriptions for the configurable metadata in KIWI and some simple style fixes.

Wed Apr 26 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Additional container commandline options Added --set-container-derived-from and --set-container-tag commandline options which allows to overwrite the data set in the XML configuration
Tue Apr 25 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Implement obsrepositories source on derived_from The following reference to a derived container: obsrepositories:/container#latest Will be translated into the following buildservice local path: /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/containers/_obsrepositories/container#latest
Tue Apr 25 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Implement obs source on derived_from The following reference to a derived container: obs:/project/repo/container#tag Will be translated into the following buildservice local path: /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/containers/project/repo/container#tag
Tue Apr 25 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Use urlparse to detect uri scheme The source location postfix can contain several different formats e.g :/, or :// or even just :, python\'s urlparse is able to cope with all that which allows to work with the url scheme base name and thus makes handling this code more robust
Mon Apr 24 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include \'--delete\' in OCI images DataSync This commit includes #310 patch for OCI images. It also corrects the end of line format for kiwi/container/docker.py and test/unit/container_image_docker_test.py, so flake tests are all green.
Thu Apr 20 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include --delete flag in DataSync for docker images This commit includes the --delete flag in order to synchronize the docker images. This is relevant for derived images where the new layer might not only add files, but also remove something from the base image. Fixes #309
Thu Apr 13 14:00:00 2017 ngompaAATTdatto.com - Define correct default locations for sources-dir and preferences-dir In order to ensure that the defined repositories in the KIWI configuration are set to the correct places for installing into the image, the sources-dir and preferences-dir need to be redefined to point to the in-image location, as it is done for the other package managers.
Thu Apr 13 14:00:00 2017 ngompaAATTdatto.com - Do not purge the repositories before inserting them There are no good reasons to be purging the repo directories, especially when it is common for some distributions (Red Hat/CentOS/Fedora, for example) to ship repository configuration as packages. Deleting them puts the package manager in the system into a weird state, so we want to avoid this.
Thu Apr 13 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add support for OCI images This commit adds support for OCI images. Most of the docker related code is reused for OCI classes and Docker classes have been refactored so now they are a splecialization of the OCI classes. It is done this way since KIWI internally only uses OCI format to operate with containers, therefore docker images just differ from OCI images by the way they are packaged or unpackaged.
Wed Apr 12 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add clear attribute for entrypoint and subcommand sections This commit adds the possibility of clearing asny subcommand or entrypoint. This is relevant for docker derived images, as they inherit the configuration and it might lead to some bad behavior.
Wed Apr 12 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add require/recommend installation support for yum This commit adds support to install required only or required plus recommended packages using yum as the package manager.
Wed Apr 12 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add support for required/recommended packages This commit enables support to install only required packages or install required plus recommended packages.
Tue Apr 11 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include \'plusRecommended\' management for dnf Add support to enable/disable installation of recommended packages for dnf package manager. With this commit \'plusRecommended\' patternType triggers on installation of recommended packages, which is turned off by default.
Tue Apr 11 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Make sure debian repositories database is populated before install This commit includes an \'apt-get update\' call before any \'apt-get install\' command. This way the packages database is always ready, even if no bootstrap procedure has been executed.
Mon Apr 10 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Follow up fix for grub2 setup in live builder The live iso builder still used a fixed boot/grub2 path but due to the refactoring this path is now distro dependant and should be obtained dynamically
Mon Apr 10 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Cleanup use of bootloader path in boot code Instead of repeating the bootloader path only specify it once per setup path
Mon Apr 10 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Add method to setup installation of recommended packages With this commit package manager are always set to include only required packages or set to include required and recommended packages. This commit fixes #285
Thu Apr 6 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Update development and contribution chapter Fix some minor inconsistencies due to latest code changes with regards to py2 and py3 compatibility and also change the style of the chapter to be more straight forward for people who would like to contribute from scratch
Wed Apr 5 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Bypass bootstrap procedure if no bootstrap packages section This commit updates kiwi to bypass bootstrap procedure in case there is no bootstrap packages section. It also adds extra validation in root_bind.
Wed Apr 5 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup grub2 template parameters The boot_directory_name parameters was missing for live and install image builds
Tue Apr 4 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Avoid GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR setup in etc/default/grub The GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR information can\'t be provided in a generic way for all distributions. The information should be either placed by a package post script (as done by most of the distributions) or by a custom kiwi config.sh or images.sh script. Fixes #286 Fixes (bsc#1032119)
Tue Apr 4 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added support for unknown uri types for base image references This commits bypasses any URI check if the uri schema is unknown in RootImport class. This way the URI is bypassed to skopeo if it couldn\'t be translated to any known type. That enables referencing images with any URI supported by skopeo, i.e. DockerHub images.
Tue Apr 4 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Keep imported image in OCI format instead of docker Kiwi always uses OCI format for container manipulations, so it is easier to assume the image kept between prepare and create step is also in OCI format, this way less format convertions are needed.
Tue Apr 4 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup bootloader menu title setup If the menu title is setup via the displayname attribute in the XML configuration, kiwi should not change this text by a prefix or any other style adaptions. Fixes #287 Fixes (bsc#1032118)
Tue Apr 4 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup copy of array in boot code The filtered nic interface names are stored in an array and copied back into the original array. The copy of the array was semantically wrong
Mon Apr 3 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup grub2 setup and tool calls Depending on the distribution the grub tools are either named grub2-tool or grub-tool. Additionally the grub configuration data is expected to live in boot/grub2 or boot/grub. This commit handles the tool calls and also the grub boot directory setup in a generic way
Thu Mar 30 14:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include SLE13 boot descriptions for x86_64 and arm This commit includes boot descriptions for SLE13, the descriptions are based on leap 42.3.
Thu Mar 30 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Delete obsolete ec2 disk format The ec2 value in the format attribute is deprecated and no longer supported It remained in the schema for a while and has now reached EOL
Tue Mar 28 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup theme setup in boot Make sure grub theme data is populated in the boot directory. Checking only for the presence of the theme directory is not enough. If the theme directory in boot does not contain the requested theme it must be provided including a warning if the theme data could not be found in the system
Tue Mar 28 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Do not change the API in an incompatible way
Tue Mar 28 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Use request_package_exclusion method in prepare
Mon Mar 27 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor method name of package manager interface The request_package_lock was renamed into request_package_exclusion because that is the goal, to actually exclude(skip) a package. From an implementation point of view this is done to set a lock in the zypper case. However other package managers might do it differently. The interface should stay consistent with regards to the user goal and not with the package manager specific implementation. This Fixes #248
Mon Mar 27 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added element Allow network interface names to be filtered by the given regular expression. The expression is handled by the bash regexp operator. Interface names matching the rule will be filtered out, all others stay. It is also possible to pass the variable kiwi_oemnicfilter as kernel command line in a PXE deployment. Fixes #245
Mon Mar 27 14:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Delete no longer needed btrfs bootpath setup The adaption of the bootpath in the grub.cfg file with regards to the btrfs toplevel volume named \'AATT\' was the wrong solution. The fixes in the btrfs filesystem setup and the config files etc/default/grub and sysconfig/bootloader caused the grub toolchain to work properly. This Fixes (bsc#1030038)
Fri Mar 24 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Convert user input to absolute paths This commit converts the paths provided by the user with the command line to absolute paths. The effected arguments are:
* --root
* --target-dir
* --bundle-dir This supersedes and fixes #271
Fri Mar 24 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Support editbootconfig also for the iso type This Fixes #274

Tue Mar 21 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed checksum file creation If the checksum should be created from a compressed file it is expected that the checksum of the uncompressed file is added to the checksum file. This is because in a pxe deployment the uncompressed version of the file is put on disk and compared with the reference information in the checksum file
Tue Mar 21 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor ip link detection There is no reliable way to check if a link is unplugged, thus the code has changed into the following workflow 1. use interfaces which returns success on ip link set up 2. wait for the UP state on all of these interfaces and return if one of them enters the UP state 3. call a fixed wait state to allow to kernel network drivers to settle 4. run through all remaining interfaces, discover the link state and call a DHCP discovery
Mon Mar 20 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup pxe builder Generate a tarball containing all relevant pxe boot result files instead of a bunch of extra files. This also turns the pxe builder to be compatible again with the legacy kiwi pxe bundler

Tue Mar 7 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Import root system from a given image This commit includes the root import feature. A `derived_from` attribute has been included with the section to make reference to the image file to import. The image format to import is assumed to be the same as the build type to import. The current format supported is docker
Tue Mar 7 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Flake cleanup for unit tests
Mon Mar 6 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Prevent use of project relative import statements For details on the motivation of this change please visit: https://wiki.python.org/moin/FutureProofPython
Mon Mar 6 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Allow activation/deactivation of sysV services systemd is still legacy sysV init compatible, thus the kiwi helper scripts to activate/deactivate services should not only be limited to systemd services. Fixes #256
Mon Mar 6 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Support package capabilities in sat solver A solver operation can receive a package or pattern name but a capability name was considered a package name and failed to resolve. This commit fixes the solver operation with regards to package capabilities
Mon Mar 6 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Add runtime check for kernel match If a kiwi initrd is used, the kernel used to build the kiwi initrd and the kernel used in the system image must be the same in order to avoid an inconsistent boot setup. This is related to (bsc#1027610)
Fri Mar 3 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added runtime check for boot image reference If an initrd_system different from kiwi is selected for a vmx (simple disk) image, it does not make sense to setup a reference to a kiwi boot image description, because no kiwi boot image will be built. Despite that it does not hurt it\'s still an inconsistent setup. This is related to (bsc#1027610)
Fri Mar 3 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Update documentation the docker build container is now build with the correct namespace. Thus no image tagging is required anymore
Thu Mar 2 13:00:00 2017 davidcassanyAATTgmail.com - Support container names with slashes (#254) Umoci tool doesn\'t require any other parameter than a tag to identify the container. So container_name value is not used in umoci. This Fixes#253
Wed Mar 1 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Use default command only if no entrypoit and subcommand aren\'t set Fixes #251
Wed Mar 1 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fix tagging for OCI images This commit fixes the tagging schema for umoci. An OCI image name is path[:tag], this commit rearranges some variable names to avoid confusions between names and tags. Fixes #249
Tue Feb 28 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Add support for repository credentials The package and solver repository classes did not provide an interface to deal with repository credentials. This commit add support for the zypper package manager and the generic urlopen based download method of the solver class. This Fixes #246
Tue Feb 28 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Update documentation Add detailed information how to update the docker Build Container on the official dockerhub registry. This is needed to use custom or newer versions of the currently published Build Container

Fri Feb 24 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure bootenv can be initialized An existing grub bootenv file should be deleted prior to calling grub2-install in order to allow grub2 to create a new correct bootenv file
Thu Feb 23 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added DNF package management implementation DNF is the package manager used on Fedora systems and will also most likely replace yum for the next generation of RHEL. Along with the implementation here an example JeOS image description for Fedora can be found on: https://github.com/SUSE/kiwi-descriptions. This Fixes #36
Tue Feb 21 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Follow up fix for network driver delay Each network interface will be switched off for a short moment when the kernel network driver is loaded. During that time the link status information would be misleading. Thus we wait a short time before the link status check is started
Mon Feb 20 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Include compression optimization flags for mksquashfs command This commit includes some flags for mksquashfs command in other to achieve higher compression rates. Also note that those flags were already present in KIWI former versions, thus they have been included again for compatibility reasons. This commit fixes #242
Mon Feb 20 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Allow to convert GPT into MBR The type attribute force_mbr allows to convert a system selected for use with a GPT to use an MBR (msdos table). The attribute only takes effect on image configurations which would select the GPT partitioner. This Fixes #236
Mon Feb 20 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Wait for network drivers to pass init Before we check for the link status a waid period of 3 seconds should guarantee that the network drivers have passed the init routines
Thu Feb 16 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor waitForLinkUp Put code which does not belong into the loop outside of the loop. Also maintain sleep timeout and retry count in variables
Thu Feb 16 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed waitForLinkUp and setIPLinkUp The setIPLinkUp method did not handle the return value of the waitForLinkUp call and always returned success even if waitForLinkUp ran into a timeout The waitForLinkUp method was improved in a way that it does not wait if the link detection discovered the interface is unplugged. The detection if a cable is connected or not only works if the ifplugstatus tool was found in the initrd
Thu Feb 9 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Implement handling for efipartsize
Thu Feb 9 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Decrease default EFI partition size to 20MB The former default of 200MB was way too large and is a waste of space. Related to Issue #237
Thu Feb 9 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added efipartsize attribute in type setup The attribute allows to specify a custom size for the EFI partition. Fixes #237
Thu Feb 9 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Allow bootloader=\"custom\" for bootloader attribute If specified as such the bootloader configuration and installation will be skipped. However the editbootinstall and editbootconfig scripts will still be called. This Fixes #235
Thu Feb 9 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed create_repository_solvable If the solvable already exists, the method should return it
Wed Feb 8 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added handling for spare_part attribute Add a spare partition right before the root partition of the configured size. Fixes #234
Wed Feb 8 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added new type attribute spare_part spare_part receives a size value with an optional unit (M|G) and is used for disk images to allow the creaton of a spare partition of the configured size. Issue #234
Wed Feb 8 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Delete all traces of vboot firmware The vboot firmware setup was a workaround on arm for the chromebook platform several years ago. From a todays perspective the setup and the way to boot would be different and obsoletes the special case implementation. Thus this is gone now. Related to Issue #234
Wed Feb 8 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Prevent quoted domain name in dhclientImportInfo We\'re getting domain name by parsion a lease file. Unfortunately in lease file domain name is quoted, which breaks linux resolver. This commit gets domainname unquoted
Tue Feb 7 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Add manual page for image info command
Mon Feb 6 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added kiwi image info command Allow to list information about the image description. In a first implementation one can show the image name as well as run a dependency resolution for the packages listed in the XML description
Fri Feb 3 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added uri translation for SUSE factory The obs uri \'obs://openSUSE:Factory/standard\' does not follow the standard http url translation schema and needed a special handling in order to resolve correctly
Thu Feb 2 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Eliminate instsource element and requirements The schema defintions for kiwi v8 still contained the product schema definitions aka instsource which is no longer supported by this version of kiwi. Building SUSE products is done with the kiwi v7 code base and will most probably be handled by an extra product builder tool in the future maintained and developed by the buildservice team. We would be proud if the api of the kiwi v8 code base can be helpful for the product builder in the future
Wed Feb 1 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added arch attribute for ignore section The packages subsection only accepted a package name to become ignored. However a subsection to install a package allows for an arch selection. The same should apply to ignore a package. In addition the allowed content for the arch attribute has been changed from simple text to a regular expression. Allowed is a comma seperated list of reserved architecture words like they are displayed by uname -m
Wed Feb 1 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - User format method to form the message
Wed Feb 1 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added support for package locking for zypper Zypper supports the al (add lock) command which allows to ignore a package in the dependecny resolution process. This is useful to prevent installation of a package which was pulled in by e.g a recommendation flag from the spec file. Packages marked to be ignored are not handled for apt and yum right now. Using this feature together with an unsupported package manager backend results in a warning to the user
Wed Feb 1 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Included some file naming convetions
Mon Jan 30 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Components of an Image Description section This commit extends the doc/sources/workflow.rst documentation by including details about config.sh and images.sh files.
Thu Jan 26 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup isolinux timeout configuration isolinux counts the timeout in units of 1/10 seconds. Thus the value provided in the image description needs to be adapted correctly. This Fixes #228
Thu Jan 26 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup setupMachineID Cleaning up existing machine id files by deleting them causes an interactive session to be started by systemd This is something we don\'t want. As the consequences of touching the machine id files seems to be too critical the method has been turned into a hook caller. This allows the user to make use of it on their own purpose and by default doesn\'t mess with the machine id files
Tue Jan 24 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Change processing of setupMachineID Instead of creating new machine ids for systemd and dbus the method now cleans up all existing machine ids and leave it up to systemd to initialize and create new ids. This allows to make use of the native way how systemd retrieves and handles machine ids
Tue Jan 24 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup typo in ReST style
Mon Jan 23 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Add utils.sysconfig to api documentation
Mon Jan 23 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Completion for grub bootloader configuration The configuration files /etc/sysconfig/bootloader and /etc/default/grub needs to be created/updated with the relevant values regarding the bootloader setup done by kiwi. This Fixes #226
Fri Jan 20 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Apply volume attributes for btrfs and lvm The chattr utility is used to apply file attributes So far only the no-copy-on-write attribute can be specified in a volume setup. If further attributes are needed they will be added on demand
Fri Jan 20 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added attributes element in volume type
Thu Jan 19 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added volume attribute copy_on_write The copy_on_write attribute allows to activate or deactivate the copy on write functionality for the desired volume. This Fixes #218
Thu Jan 19 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure there is a storage default setup on s390 Storage disks on s390 requires an information about the type and the blocksize. In case these information is not provided in the kiwi XML configuration, None was set as value in the zipl configuration which lead to an error. This commit provides default values for those parameters
Tue Jan 17 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Allow unix device names in oem-unattended-id setup In order to allow a raw device name in oem-unattended-id the /dev tree has been added to search list. This is useful if e.g a ramdisk device which is not part of any /dev/disk/... or /dev/mapper device map should be used as target disk for the deployment. Thus a setup to stick the deployment to e.g /dev/ram1 would look like this ram1 This Fixes #221
Tue Jan 17 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Don\'t delete ip tools from oemboot network tools are needed for oem disk deployment via pxe
Tue Jan 17 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Added .coveragerc Clearly indicate which source files are excluded from the coverage report
Tue Jan 17 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure setupMachineID also cares for dbus Systemd and dbus should use the same machine-id. Therefore a symlink /var/lib/dbus/machine-id pointing to /etc/machine-id is created right after systemd-machine-id-setup. Fixes #219
Mon Jan 16 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fixup duplication of btrfs toplevel volume If using root btrfs snapshot, the default toplevel subvolume is set to /AATT/.snapshots/1/snapshot, thus all defined subvolumes are mounted under that cusomized default subvolume. For the first time subvolumes are mounted it is fine to include /AATT/.snapshots/1/snapshot prefix as root is not yet set to that specific path, however in any future mount this path prefix is not needed any more, as the root get mounted in /AATT/.snapshots/1/snapshot by default. Fixes (bsc#1015549)
Fri Jan 13 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Add check_docker_tool_chain_installed Runtime check to check for required docker tools umoci and skopeo. As long as tools tools are not available in the core distro of all distributions we avoid spec file requirements and check at runtime if they can be found
Mon Jan 9 13:00:00 2017 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Running config.sh after including the image repositories This commit rearranges some code lines in order to run the config.sh script after the repositories of the image have been included, this way repositories can be trusted and refreshed in config.sh script.
Mon Jan 9 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor docker container creation Instead of creating a simple tarball the tools umoci and skopeo from the docker tool chain are used to create official docker images. Along with those tools more information to describe a container has been added to the schema. A complete container setup now consists of the following elements ...

Mon Jan 9 13:00:00 2017 msAATTsuse.com - Update schema for container setup In preparation to support creation of native docker containers the way docker likes it, the kiwi schema has to be adapted. So far there was no way to specify additional metadata information for containers. With this commit a new section called is provided. containerconfig is a subsection of the type and only allowed for the docker image type. This constraint is checked via a schematron rule. In addition an xslt stylesheet moves the currently existing container attribute, which was used to set a name for the container, into the new containerconfig section as name attribute
Tue Dec 20 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed quadruple_token tokenizer Information not provided should end up as a None type in the list in any case. If an empty string was provided via e.g --add-repo source,type,, the tokenizer puts in an empty string. If the information was provided as --add-repo source,type a None type was used. The code handling the information expected a None type for not provided information, with an empty string we end up in validation code which e,g complains that an empty string can\'t be converted into an integer base repo priority
Sun Dec 18 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Bump version: 8.28.1 → 8.28.2

Tue Dec 6 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Adapt documentation to rtd schema replace topic node used for abstract by a hint. This results in a color box for the abstract which looks better than what rtd does with simple topics
Tue Dec 6 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Adapt schema generator to rtd doc schema
Tue Dec 6 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Move to rtd sphinx schema The read-the-docs schema fits better into the mainstream of online documentation
Mon Dec 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added check_volume_setup_has_no_root_definition The root volume in a systemdisk setup is handled in a special way. It is not allowed to setup a custom name or mountpoint for the root volume. Therefore the size of the root volume can be setup via the AATTroot volume name. This check looks up the volume setup and searches if there is a configuration for the \'/\' mountpoint which would cause the image build to fail
Mon Dec 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Prevent warning about unknown opt in workflow doc
Mon Dec 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Rebuild schema documentation

Mon Dec 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Prevent any type from attribute recursion The schema parser to create the documentation run into an endless recursion for the new k.any type. As any could be anything there is not much do document for this type. Thus it is now skipped from the traversal
Fri Dec 2 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Update documentation per review
Thu Dec 1 13:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Including minimum volume size offset in disk size calculation This commit adds Defaults:get_min_volume_mbytes() to the disk size calculation algorithm.

If the data validates the method get_extension_xml_data can be used to access the etree parse result for each of the extension configurations
Wed Nov 30 13:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - LVM volumes management during grub2 install During the grub2 install process volumes were not mounted properly, a proper mount order was not taken into consideration and LV device information was not given by the method get_volumes in VolumeManger. This commit forces the mount (and umount) operations to be done in coherent order and also modifies the get_volumes method in order to return the device associated to each volume.
Mon Nov 28 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Allow section for custom plugins For the use case to add additional image description information an extension section exists which allows to add custom section and attributes. Custom XML information must be connected to a namespace in order to avoid conflicts with the existing structure. The following example shows how to place additional XML information:
Fri Nov 25 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed expansion of msdos disks If the target disk size is beyond 2TB it can\'t be expanded to the full size if the msdos partition table layout is in use. Because of this the disk expansion will be limited to the allowed maximum for the msdos partition table type which is at 2TB. This fixes bnc#1010966

Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed setup_disk_image_config in bootloader setup The parameter for the uuid is not enough to handle all supported disk geometries. If the disk has an extra boot partition the bootloader setup must read the boot data from the boot partition but must set the root for the kernel cmdline to the root partition. Therefore the interface needs to change and must provide both the boot_uuid and the root_uuid in oder to allow the method to setup the correct values
Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Parse arch attribute as a comma separated list This commit ensure that the arch attribute of each package section is parsed as a comma separated list. This way, as in previous kiwi versions, each package might be suitable for one or more specified architectures.
Thu Nov 24 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup kernel name setup in disk builder The Kernel instance is the only correct place to ask for the kernel name. This class has the responsibility to know information about the selected kernel. The additional arch based assumption on the kernel name in the disk builder were wrong. This fixes bnc#1011936

Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Documentation workflow review
Mon Nov 21 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - The Sat solver class - an example The Sat solver class can be used to run a solver operation over a list of packages and/or patterns in order to receive a dependency solved list of all required packages according to the request. In order to do that a set of repositories is required which provides the package metadata and their requirements. The following is an example how to use the Sat class in your application: ```python from kiwi.solver.sat import Sat from kiwi.system.uri import Uri from kiwi.solver.repository import SolverRepository solver = Sat() solver.add_repository( SolverRepository(Uri(\'obs://leap/42.2/repo/oss\', \'yast2\')) ) print(solver.solve([\'vim\'])) ```

Fri Nov 18 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed kernel name lookup Complete the list of kernel names for the lookup. Normally the kernel package provides a symlink to the actual kernel image file. However if the link does not exist we extend the search to a collection of names for possible kernel images. The new list now also covers kernel names as used for arm Along with the change this patch also provides an option to raise an exception if the kernel lookup did not find any kernel, which is used for the get_kernel() request in the dracut initrd system setup where it is mandatory to find a kernel image. This fixes bnc#1010874
Thu Nov 17 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added Sat solver class Added implementation for Solver class based on the SUSE libsolv C library and the solv python binding
Thu Nov 17 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup lease time in setupNetworkWicked The default lease time with 300s used by wicked is relatively short and different from the default lease time of the former dhcpcd. This change causes wicked to use a lease time of 3600s This is related to bnc#1003091
Thu Nov 17 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup default behavior of releaseNetwork If no tool was found to communicate with the dhcp server in order to free the lease the method did nothing. However it should at least bring down the network. This is related to bnc#1003091

Sun Nov 13 13:00:00 2016 kukukAATTthkukuk.de - Implement loading of snapshots and fix snapshot menu layout. If you want to boot an old snapshot, but not to do a rollback, we need to tell the kernel which snapshot to use. This patch also fixes the broken layout of the grub snapshot menu.
Sat Nov 12 13:00:00 2016 kukukAATTthkukuk.de - Move source of grub-snapshot.cfg to the right position grub-snapshot.cfg should not be sourced at the begining, but at the end of grub.cfg.

Thu Nov 10 13:00:00 2016 davidcassanyAATTgmail.com - Do not delete all repositories if there aren\'t repositories to import (#191) This commit adds a tester method to check if there is any repository marked as imageinclude. The method is used to execute import_repositories_marked_as_imageinclude method only when it is actually needed.
Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - grub.cfg: Fixes for btrfs as rootfs This addresses the following issues
* An image based on btrfs using the entire boot as a subvolume causes grub to be unable to find its config file. Thus kiwi now raises an exception in this situation
* Don\'t prefix the bootpath with the snapshot path if the btrfs root is placed in a snapshot. Instead the file etc/default/grub must be written/updated with the SUSE_BTRFS_SNAPSHOT_BOOTING variable set to true. Once this is done the bootpath is consistently set to /boot no matter which snapshot is active
Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - grub.cfg: Source grub-snapshot.cfg if present Add a lookup for /.snapshots/grub-snapshot.cfg to the generated grub.cfg. The file is shell sourced if it exists
Wed Nov 9 13:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - No need to mock Path.which There is no need to mock Path.which as isoinfo binary from the platform is needed to run the test, so better let the system look for it, note that the binray can be located in the alternate location (/usr/lib/genisoimage/) which is not part of the PATH. In that particular case the iso_test would fail if we mock Path.which.

Tue Nov 8 13:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - vhd-fixed name corrected in subformat init class This commit reverts the previous one and it applies the name change to the subformat class initializer. This way the schema is not altered and we keep compatibility with previous description files.
Tue Nov 8 13:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - vhdfixed format naming inconsistency vhdfixed storage format name was not updated according its real name in the kiwi schema, making it impossible to build any vhdfixed image. The schema used to expect \'vhd-fixed\', however, internally, the code was expecting \'vhdfixed\'. The schema has been updated. This commit fixes #184

Fri Oct 28 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup assembling of mdraid array when udev discovers an mdraid array it partially starts the array. That is interfering with the mdadm --assemble call by kiwi which leads to a busy state and an array in inactive state. Therefore the method should wait until the raid array really exists no matter if the assembling is started by udev or kiwi\'s mdadm call. In addition if the array got assembled but is incomplete because devices are missing or the timout is fired, an additional call to start any array that has been partially assembled is required. pxeRaidAssemble will throw an exception if after this call no md device with a size > 0 will show up after a timeout. This Fixes bnc#1000742
Fri Oct 28 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup waitForStorageDevice The function will return success if the size of the storage device can be obtained and is greater than zero.

Tue Oct 11 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Updated fetchFile method Now it makes sure the splash is hidden before showing any progress dialog. This commit is port from openSUSE/kiwi#601
Mon Oct 10 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup wicked DNS data validation wicked provides DNS info in DNSSERVERS with a space as separator and not with a \',\' as it was the case in dhcpcd
Mon Oct 10 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Do not bundle the raw disk if a format is setup Only bundle the compressed version of the .raw disk image if no disk format like qcow2, vmdk, etc... is specified. Fixes #159
Mon Oct 10 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Do not compress disk formats Stay compatible with the former version of kiwi and do not compress disk formats like qcow2, vmdk, etc... It also does not make much sense since the disk formats itself are using a compression algorithm. Fixes #159
Mon Oct 10 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Support yum repository priorities yum normally installs the latest version of a package, regardless of which repository provides it. The yum-plugin-priorities provides a method to prefer a package from a repository with a higher priority. Fixes #153
Fri Oct 7 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fix attributes_not_used helper script The script is used to check which parts of the XML schema are not used by the new (kiwi v8) version. The information is helpful to find missing or obsolete attribute handling in v8 vs. v7
Thu Oct 6 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Modified few code lines to match landscape\'s quality standards
Thu Oct 6 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Use tmpfs for write overlay in netboot via nbd/aoe
Wed Oct 5 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added support for multiple `--add-profile` options
Wed Oct 5 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added \'--add-profile\' option in compat mode This commit fixes #154. With this, the compatiblity mode accepts the `--add-profile` option which was present in previous kiwi versions and that is translated to `--profile` in the current version.
Wed Oct 5 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Add set_property_readonly_root for volume manager The custom option root_is_readonly_snapshot is evaluated for the method set_property_readonly_root(). If set and the root filesystem has been installed into a btrfs snapshot the filesystem is turned into read-only mode
Wed Oct 5 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Evaluate root_is_readonly_snapshot in disk builder
Wed Oct 5 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added btrfs_root_is_readonly_snapshot attribute The attribute allows to specify if the root filesystem should be set to read-only if it is created as a btrfs snapshot. The option only has an effect if a btrfs snapshot is used as root filesystem. Fixes bnc#1000080
Sat Oct 1 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Bump version: 8.20.21 → 8.20.22
Fri Sep 30 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added test for -udf flag for genisoimage/mkisofs
Fri Sep 30 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added forcing UDF filesystem for large images Included -udf flag to force UDF filesystem usage
Fri Sep 30 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed secure boot setup for iso media Provide the shim loader and the shim signed grub loader in the required boot path. Normally this task is done by the shim-install tool. However, shim-install does not exist on all distributions and the script does not operate well in CD environments from which we generate live and/or install media. Thus shim-install is used if possible at install time of the bootloader because it requires access to the target block device. In any other case the kiwi fallback code applies
Fri Sep 30 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added support for mkisofs genisoimage and mkisofs tools are slightly different so this commit makes sure all flags are supported in both tools.
Fri Sep 30 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed hybrid setup for large ISO images The isohybrid tool uses fseek() to locate the bootloader files. That\'s unfortunately not 64-bit safe. In case of an ISO image bigger than 4G this leads to 32-bit offset issues. kiwi can workaround this problem by putting the bootloader files near the top of the iso image, which is done by a change in the sortfile of this commit
Thu Sep 29 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added rpm_excludedocs handling for yum rpm supports the --excludepath option. However, yum can not be configured to pass along options to rpm or the python interface it uses. Thus only a warning about excludedocs not being supported by kiwi for yum is issued. Fixes #133
Thu Sep 29 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added rpm_excludedocs handling for apt Setup the appropriate dpkg options to avoid the installation of manual pages and package documentation if rpm_excludedocs is set in the kiwi XML description. Related to #133
Tue Sep 27 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure netboot code populates kiwi_RootPart For disk based images the file config.partids is written and imported. However, for netboot stations a disk is optional and no partids information exists. In order to provide at least the partition number for the root partition on netboot stations with a disk, the kiwi_RootPart is exported from the provided client configuration file. Fixes bnc#1000194
Tue Sep 27 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Call grub2-install as chroot operation In addition to the chrooted call make sure all volumes from the volume manager (if used) are mounted at call time
Tue Sep 27 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup grub default module list The test module is a required module in any case
Tue Sep 27 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure fstab exists in initrd creation system
Mon Sep 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Respect setup of devicepersistency for swap part If a swap boot partition is requested it should be added to the fstab file according to the device persistency setup or its uuid default
Mon Sep 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Respect setup of devicepersistency for boot part If an extra boot partition is requested it should be added to the fstab file according to the device persistency setup or the default uuid persistency type
Mon Sep 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Only sync .mod grub2 module files When syncing the grub2 modules to the boot directory only the .mod version of the module needs to be present
Mon Sep 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Mount boot volumes on grub install If there are volumes below /boot they need to be mounted before grub2-install / shim-install is called in order to make sure all data is available in the volume
Fri Sep 23 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure boot image dump is cleaned up
Fri Sep 23 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor DiskBuilder class The DiskBuilder class is able to build a disk its corresponding format and the installation image to install this disk by using the InstallImageBuilder. However all three tasks were handled in a row which lead to the problem that resources like active mount processes were still open when e.g the disk format is created. The race conditions produced here lead to an undefined state of the resulting disk format and/or install image. In order to avoid this the DiskBuilder class has been refactored in a way that each tasks is an atomic operation which is freeing its resources after success
Thu Sep 22 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Delete root, boot, efi fstab setup from kiwi boot The kiwi boot code was responsible for setting up the contents of the fstab file on first boot. However the build process now provides an fstab with the generic label or uuid based fstab entries which allows to remove that part from the kiwi boot code
Thu Sep 22 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Add root, boot and efi partitions to fstab Make sure the above partitions are added to the generic fstab with their label or uuid at build time
Thu Sep 22 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added BlockID class Class to provide support for retrieving block device metadata
Thu Sep 22 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Use BlockID class for block operations
Thu Sep 22 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed fstab entries for btrfs subvolumes mount options must be part of the subvol information which itself is also a mount option
Thu Sep 22 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Corrected DEVICE_TIMEOUT variable validation Now it uses regex in order to validate the variable is an integer
Wed Sep 21 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Delete fstab setup for volumes from kiwi boot code For persistent devices like LVM volumes or btrfs sub volumes the fstab setup can be done at build time. Fixes #142
Wed Sep 21 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Custom device timeout variable added This commit patches the issue bnc#992992. Now DEVICE_TIMEOUT variable can be used in order to set the device waiting timeout in watForStorageDevice function. Must be a numeric value expressed in seconds.
Wed Sep 21 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed btrfs mount_volumes if root is snapshot The provided subvolume name contained the snapshot path which is invalid. In addition nested volumes e.g /var/cache were reduced to /cache which is wrong
Wed Sep 21 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Cleanup unit test Use only one instance of context manager for all tests
Tue Sep 20 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Create fstab entries for persistent devices Instead of creating the fstab at boot time, those entries which are generic and not depending on an unknown device name can be created as part of the image building process.
Tue Sep 20 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added get_fstab to volume manager interface The volume manager interface should allow to provide fstab entries for the volumes it manages
Tue Sep 20 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed evaluation of Dialog return value The return code from the Dialog boot code was evaluated after other shell code was executed. Thus the return code from the call in question was lost and misinterpreted
Tue Sep 20 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure volumes are mounted prior to install
Tue Sep 20 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup invalid character in bash source
Mon Sep 19 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup chroot adaption for caller environment The ZYPP_CONF path is provided as part of the caller environment and not as a zypper caller parameter. However the path adaptions when calls happens chrooted was only done for the commandline arguments but not for the command environment. This patch also adapts the environment, related to Issue #133
Mon Sep 19 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make ifplugstatus available in boot images Added ifplugd to kiwi oem|netboot images for leap and tumbleweed
Mon Sep 19 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Prefer ifplugstatus for link up check Use ifplugstatus if present to check if the network link is up. Fallback is the old ip based method
Fri Sep 16 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup theme setup in grub2 config template Only set the theme if the .txt file describing it exists
Thu Sep 15 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup yum group install yum groups can contain spaces, thus quoting is required Fixes #138
Thu Sep 15 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Follow up fix for setupNetworkWicked IP address information from wicked is imported twice. However the plain IPv4 address validation happened only on the first import. Fixes bnc#992989
Tue Sep 13 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed pxe install archive md5 file The md5 sum must be created from the uncompressed version of the disk image
Tue Sep 13 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added missing trigger file for oem pxe install The config.vmxsystem trigger file was missing in the oem install initrd used when deploying a disk image over pxe
Mon Sep 12 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Integrate schema documentation into doc process The schema documentation is auto generated via the schema_parser helper tool. The tox doc target now also generates schema docs Fixes #53
Mon Sep 12 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Schema docs generation helper A simple script to parse the RelaxNG schema that grabs relevant information in order to produce autogenerated documentation from the schema inline comments.
Mon Sep 12 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added handling for rpm-excludedocs for zypper In zypper zypp.conf can be setup to prevent the installation of %doc marked items from rpm packages. The section in the kiwi XML description is used to provide this functionality. So far this feature is only implemented for zypper. References #133
Sun Sep 11 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure EFI modules are provided in uefi mode For EFI secure boot (uefi) the grub2 efi modules were not copied to the target directory. shim-install normally does that by invoking grub2-install. However shim-install does not allow to call grub2-install with the required parameters as needed for loop (image) based targets. Thus kiwi calls shim-install but skips grub2-install and takes care to provide the needed EFI modules.
Sun Sep 11 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Revert WaitForStorageDevice patch The logic to setup a wait timeout by asking a device property from a device which does not yet exist raises a chicken and egg problem
Wed Sep 7 14:00:00 2016 tbechtoldAATTsuse.com - travis: Update pypi password Next try to get the automatic deployment on pypi fixed.
Thu Aug 25 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Move to tar.gz as sdist target PyPI is planning to support only .tar.gz in the near future. See https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0527. This Fixes #132

Thu Aug 18 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make repository an optional element So far one repository was mandatory in the XML description. However, this is not required because all repositories can be specified on the commandline
Thu Aug 18 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added quotes to protect against spaces
Thu Aug 18 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Added getDeviceTransportType method The method gets the transport type of the given device. WaitForStorageDevice reacts according to the transport type by having a shorter timeout in case the device is a usb.
Thu Aug 18 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - WaitForStorageDevice patch The function has been modified in order to distinguish a shorter timeout if the device is a usb.
Wed Aug 17 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Update compat options for create step The --ignore-repos, --set-repo and --add-repo options are allowed to be specified for compatibility reasons if --create is specified in the compat commandline. However, they are not used in the next generation kiwi create step because the repo information is persistently stored after the prepare step has finished, which is not the case for the legacy kiwi version
Wed Aug 17 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Support --ignore-repos in compat mode
Wed Aug 17 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added --ignore-repos for build and prepare tasks The option allows to ignore all repos configured in the XML description. This allows to specify a complete set of repositories via the commandline
Tue Aug 16 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Preserve timestamp on grub2-install copy In order to workaround the bug in shim-install which unnecessarily calls grub2-install we replace the binary by a noop before calling shim-install. However all file attributes of the grub2-install binary, timestamp, modes, etc should stay untouched (bnc#993825)
Mon Aug 15 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Update documentation Move information about legacy kiwi in its own chapter
Fri Aug 12 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup vmdk header update due to the wrong file open mode the result image was truncated on update of the vm tools version

Fri Aug 5 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Command validation This commit includes a validation in Command.run and Command.call in order to verify the existance of the command before running it. It case it is not found in the specified environment it raises a KiwiCommandNotFound Exception.
Fri Aug 5 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Detailed schema validation report This commit adds the execution of a jing process if the validation fails, that way the user has more information about what is actually failing during the validation process. If jing command is not found, it just produces an info message to warn the user and kiwi finalizes as expected.
Thu Aug 4 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Workaround Fix for pypi travis deployment Use all_branches: true, as we do only tag with bumpversion for a release this workaround works for us. For reference see https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/1675

Wed Aug 3 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Updated get_users and get_user_groups methods Get_users method has been updated in order to be able to append the groups attribute when a user is defined in multiple sections in the description file. Appart from groups, all other user attributes are ignored if the user was already processed when parsing the description file. Get_users_groups method has been also updated so it returns a list of groups with unique values, keeping the description file order.
Tue Aug 2 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Updated xml_state The changes here modify the method get_users in xml_state in order to provide a simple list of users instead of nested lists. Also a new method to get the groups for a given user has been included in xml_state. This is done in order to slim down and facilitate the code in kiwi/system/setup.py. This way users and groups can be handled in more natural way.

Wed Jul 27 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Updated the user schema layout Now each user item may or may not have a groups attribute. The groups attribute is a comma separated list of group names. If present the first group name will be the login or primary group, if not present, the underlying toolchain will assign the default login group for that user.
Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - New generated schema and parser
Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Some corrections needed after rebuilding schema and parser
Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Update true/false handling of text nodes The latest version of generateDS handles true|false text values in a way that it returns a boolean python type instead of the text string. With this change the kiwi code has to be adapted at the level of writing the shell profile which needs the string value of boolean information
Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Regenerate data structures Regenerate xml_parse with latest version of generateDS. The call works in the python2.7 tox virtual environment as part of the following make target: $ make kiwi/schema/kiwi.rng
Tue Jul 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Switch to latest version of generateDS Data Structures are auto generated from the XML schema. So far the development environment has requested an older version of generateDS which will go out of service soon

Mon Jul 25 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Explain why bytes type is redefined In python2 bytes is string which is different from the bytes type in python3. The bytes type from the builtins generalizes this type to be bytes always. However the redefinition of the bytes type is marked as Smell in landscape. Thus the code should at least inform why this is done
Mon Jul 25 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Use six.Iterator instead of global object builtin The use of six.Iterator as base class for the CommandIterator seems more clear and explicit compared to the global object type overwritten by the builtins import. Fixes Smell reported by landscape
Thu Jul 21 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixing gce format build The patch is two fold, first it fixes the name of the raw disk when it is copied as disk.raw. Second it fixes the content list of the tarball to be dynamicly build instead of a static allocation. Reason for this change is that the list of files depends on the XML description whether or not a gce disk tag is configured. Fixes #113
Wed Jul 20 14:00:00 2016 dcassanyAATTsuse.com - Fixes #111: Included support for vdi format
Mon Jul 18 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Don\'t ask to start recovery in unattended mode If oem-recovery is setup in the XML description along with oem-unattended set to true as well we don\'t ask for confirmation to run the recovery when the recovery menu entry is selected at boot time

Thu Jul 7 14:00:00 2016 jmasonAATTsuse.com - Conditionally prefix encoding to vmware disk tag Prior code was always adding the encoding statement to vmware disk tag; in the event it is already present there\'s no need to add it a second time.

Thu Jul 7 14:00:00 2016 jmasonAATTsuse.com - Remove null padding on the vmware disk tag The block of data read via dd is null padded; adding the tools data after the padding breaks detection of the data. We need to remove the nulls (0x0) so appends can occur adjacent to the block of strings. See also https://github.com/openSUSE/kiwi/pull/586/commits/ee8931c76c17c79d30a128c05cc6f839a1de7156

Fri Jul 1 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixup cleanup of intermediate config files kiwi uses e.g etc/hosts from the host system for proper name resolution during the build. The temporary variant of that file will be deleted by kiwi at the end of the installation process. However depending on the package manager and the distribution it could happen that the intermediate config file added by kiwi is treated as existing config variant. In case of rpm a .rpmnew file variant of the config file is created and that needs to be handled by kiwi. Therefore this patch adds a private restore method for the .rpmnew case. It might be needed to add other restore methods to deal with this issue depending on how other (non rpm) based package managers handles the situation. Fixes #104
Thu Jun 30 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make sure mtab link exists in kiwi initrd On Debian systems the filesystem tools requires the presence of the mtab file, thus we make sure this file exists and links to proc/self/mounts

The code to install an image is kiwi\'s oem install code and unknown to dracut. The process will end up using dracut as initrd in the system image but kiwi\'s initrd on the install image
Wed Jun 22 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Delete kiwi-tools from rhel boot descriptions kiwi-tools is no longer a requirement but an optional package It contains tools like utimer or dcounter which provides nice boot timer or progress dialogs for showing data transfer progress.

Wed May 4 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Cleanup use of temporary directories All mkdtemp created directories are created with the \'kiwi_\' prefix. In addition all code parts which leaves tmpdirs in the system after kiwi is done were fixed
Mon May 2 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added python3-xattr dependency
Mon May 2 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added xattr checker for DataSync class The method target_supports_extended_attributes() checks if the sync target directory supports extended filesystem attributes. The method is called on sync_data() and will remove the -X / -A options if provided. A warning message is issued to the caller if the rsync option list has changed because of the underlaying filesystem limitations
Mon May 2 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed subformat creation The option -c makes only sense for the qcow2 subformat, whereas on all other format it cause qemu-img convert to fail
Sun May 1 14:00:00 2016 tom_schrAATTweb.de - Use iterator protocol instead of StopIteration CommandIterator contains already the __iter__ magic method. We don\'t need to manually use while and next() in order to advance to the next element. => Code refactored to \"for line in self.command\" which does exactly the same job, but is better readable. Plus we avoid the nasty try...except block.
Sat Apr 30 14:00:00 2016 tom_schrAATTweb.de - Remove kiwi.logger.init() function The init function is mostly unneccessary and can be directly created in the kiwi.logger module.

Wed Apr 27 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Use program output for synopsis in documentation
Tue Apr 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Provide custom usage message Instead of the docopt way to show the usage information we provide a kiwi specific usage information. The usage data now always consists of: 1. the generic call kiwi [global options] service [] 2. the command specific usage defined by the docopt string short form by default, long form with -h | --help 3. the global options
Tue Apr 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed loadSELinuxPolicy enforce policy is located in /sys/fs/selinux

Tue Apr 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor custom_args handling for VolumeManager class Allow for two elements fs_create_options and fs_mount_options in a VolumeManager instance and pass along the information to the FileSystem and MountManager instances
Tue Apr 26 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor custom_args handling for FileSystem class Any FileSystem class can receive a custom_args dictionary which by defaults ensures the presence of an empty list for create_options and mount_options. The create_options are used in the subclasses when the filesystem is being created and the mount_options are passed to the MountManager when the filesystem is mounted for e.g data_sync
Mon Apr 25 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added support for SELinux file security contexts Systems using SELinux require the filesystem data to be labeled according to a security context configuration. kiwi now checks for the presence of /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts and labels accordingly if it exists. This Fixes #52
Mon Apr 25 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make grub2 installation path lookup dynamic Not all linux systems installs grub2 below /usr/lib/grub2 For example RHEL7 packages it below /usr/lib/grub. Therefore kiwi needs to be flexible with this path
Fri Apr 22 14:00:00 2016 tomsAATTsuse.de - Used :returncode: for sphinxcontrib-programoutput Fix a warning when calling \"kiwi-ng\". As the script returns 1, it is considered to have failed by the program-output directive. The returncode line fixes that. See more info here: https://pythonhosted.org/sphinxcontrib-programoutput/#error-handling
Fri Apr 22 14:00:00 2016 tomsAATTsuse.de - Integrate version string from placeholder Use |version| placeholder, no bumpversion etc. is needed. Actually, it\'s taken from conf.py

Tue Apr 19 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added genisoimage requirement to kiwi spec file On SLE12 we only have genisoimage, on Leap and Tumbleweed we have both genisoimage and mkisofs. For the moment both toolkits produces working iso images with kiwi, thus I chose the save default with genisoimage
Tue Apr 19 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Be more flexible for isoinfo lookup isoinfo can either be provided by the community package in /usr/lib/genisoimage/isoinfo or by the mkisofs package from J. Schilling in /usr/bin/isoinfo. kiwi should be smart enough to lookup which tool is installed. /usr/bin/isoinfo will be preferred

Thu Apr 14 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Cleanup use of partition id maps For the partition setup the Disk class uses dictionaries to map the partition name to the partition number. However there are public partition names such as \'kiwi_BootPart\' and kiwi internal partition names such as \'boot\'. The code should make it more clear which mapping table is used
Fri Apr 8 14:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - package kiwi-pxeboot must not be noarch We want to specify for which arch we provide it. Thus it\'s not allowed to specify it as noarch even though it provides only noarch data

Tue Mar 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added support for virtual boot partition on arm Triggered by the firmware=\"vboot\" setup an EFI setup plus a raw partition without filesystem is created as first partition. The size of the partition can be controlled by the vbootsize attribute. The vboot feature is used by the arm architecture to provide a space in the partition table for custom code as required by e.g the chromebook. The final customization of the vboot space is board specific and can\'t be implemented in a generic way in kiwi. For finalizing the vboot space the script hooks editbootconfig and editbootinstall can be used This is related to Issue #17
Tue Mar 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Rename partition id kiwi_JumpPart to kiwi_EfiPart This makes it explicit for what purpose the partition is really used. EFI is not configured the same for all architectures but what is consistent is that on this partition an efi image is located to become loaded by some firmware
Tue Mar 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Activate boot partition only for msdos tables
Tue Mar 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - have tar preserve all xattrs By default tar will only preserve a subset of the capabilities with --xattrs. Adding --xattrs-include= * should preserve all capabilities (e.g. user. *, security.capability etc.).
Tue Mar 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Preserve hybrid GPT status on boot Added createHybridGPT method and setup the hybrid GPT/MBR table if requested by the XML configuration. In addition move the partition activation call also into the partition table finalize method. This is related to Issue #17
Mon Mar 21 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor partition table setup code Added two methods preparePartitionTable and finalizePartitionTable which are used to prepare the partition table to allow resizing and to finalize for partition flags after resizing. This replaces the updatePartitionTable method
Mon Mar 21 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Delete obsolete GPT fixup code Related to bnc#825221 code was added to recreate the disk with a new GPT label. The reason was that parted created a gpt_sync_mbr partition table when kiwi repartitioned the disk to use the full geometry. This was an unwanted behavior by parted and causes the additional code in kiwi. The current parted version behaves correctly and thus makes this additional code obsolete
Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added support for hybrid GPT Embedding an MBR into a GPT is required for a collection of boards, e.g arm rapberry PI. The kiwi configuration provides a new attribute called which allows to control if the GPT should be hybrid or not. On build procedures which do not create a GPT the attribute has no effect. This references Issue #17

Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Delete obsolete support for uboot arm boot is using grub2 efi images loaded by a firmware. The firmware could be uboot but due to the non generic way to setup the board that it loads the firmware all of these tasks are handled by custom scripts called via the kiwi editbootconfig / editbootinstall script hooks. Therefore kiwi itself does not have to setup or install uboot
Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Delete obsolete support for yaboot grub2 is used for ppc64 platforms, so far no older ppc platform is supported

However the kiwi initrd is unpacked pretty big and exists also only for the very first boot.
Fri Mar 18 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Execute haveged in udevStart if fips is enabled This ensure there is at least a source of entropy for /dev/random when the fips mode is enabled. Without it, VMware virtual machines hang at boot (bnc#964204)

Wed Mar 2 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed kernel names for dracut initrd system If dracut is used as initrd system we should not use the kiwi one shot names linux.vmx, initrd.vmx but stick with the official naming convention for kernel and initrd which is kernel-, initrd-
Wed Mar 2 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Skip local repos if they don\'t exist Instead of raising an exception if a local repository does not exist, we will continue with a warning message. This is needed for a flawless integration with the buildservice. Inside of a buildservice environment only those repos are setup from which packages were taken. Thus it can happen that a configured repository does not exist in the buildservice build environment if the resolver would not take any package from this repository. kiwi should not fail to build such an image
Tue Mar 1 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Avoid lvcreate to ask for wiping swap signature When kiwi creates the logical volume for the swap space and there is already a swap signature at the place on disk, lvm stops and asks what to do with it. This should be generally avoided at that stage in the boot process Fixes (bnc#968601)
Tue Mar 1 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Calculate checksum in chunks
Mon Feb 29 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Don\'t prevent an oem image from a custom disk size An oem disk ist a self expandable disk and thus it normally doesn\'t make sense to specify a disk size for it. However there are filesystems like btrfs which are very hard to precalculate a minimum required disk space for X bytes of data. In this situation a user should have the opportunity to specify a size
Mon Feb 29 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Don\'t call dracut in background from kiwi initrd This was useful to speedup the boot but opens a potential race condition if a reboot happens while dracut is still processing. With the last extension to use dracut as initrd system people now have the choice what fits their needs better and this allows us to revert the background call
Mon Feb 29 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added support for using dracut initrd As of today only the kiwi initrd could be used with an image build. This commit adds a new initrd_system attribute and allows to select between kiwi and dracut as initrd system. Please note the dracut initrd does not support all features of the kiwi initrd. This fixes #25

Mon Feb 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor suseStripKernel The way the method downsizes the kernel tree is wrong in several places and very hard to read. Therefore the code has been refactored and splitted into task methods which can run independently from each other. As one result the kernel tree is not missing any metadata and/or update weak-updates paths anymore. Fixes (bnc#965830)
Mon Feb 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Remove flush before resize filesystem According to the manpage, -F is flushing the fileystem buffer caches. which is only really useful for doing resize2fs time trials. With current Tumbleweed installed on MMC, -F triggers a Inappropriate ioctl for device while trying to flush error, and then fails to resize.
Mon Feb 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Update arm boot image descriptions Grub2 adds 35MB to the initrd for no reason on armv6/v7, as those images use u-boot scripts for booting.
Mon Feb 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed checkFileSystem call In the refactoring fc363cc, the parameters of checkFileSystem got changed to expect the device name, but one of the invocations didn\'t pass down the device name due to a typo.
Mon Feb 22 13:00:00 2016 msAATTnovell.com - Ignore fdasd errors Like fdisk, fdasd also reports an error when re-reading the partition table. But the table was written correctly so we continue for the moment and add a debug message

Wed Feb 17 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Use pinch_system with force in any case Deletion of packages should be done with the force flag set. Otherwise the package manager computes a resolved list for the deletion targets which causes other packages to be deleted which is unwanted

The documentation should explain how to setup the pxe config and infrastructure with the help of the static data provided by the kiwi-pxeboot package
Mon Feb 15 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Don\'t require python-Sphinx at build time Sphinx is not available on all platforms and required only to build the manual pages. Thus the make build target can build the man pages and pack the result into the source tarball

Tue Feb 9 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed custom args setup for vmdk format custom args is a hash with option/value pairs. For vmdk the option could be e.g adapter_type=value and the value is None. This is by intention because qemu which receives those type of options allows only the syntax \"-o option=value\". The kiwi code setting up the options did not check correctly if there really is a value for e.g adapter_type
Tue Feb 9 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Allow alternative locations for grub installation Different distributions install grub2 to different places. Therefore kiwi should not use a fixed location but allow to lookup grub data at several places

Thu Jan 21 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Pass the disk device to the bootloader config As a custom option the BootLoaderConfig instance now receives the target disk device node. So far this is only used in the zipl case where it is needed which is the reason why it is kept as a custom argument
Thu Jan 21 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Allow custom options for bootloader config classes
Wed Jan 20 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added partitioner_dasd for s390
Wed Jan 20 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor Firmware class more information from the XML description is needed in order to make e.g decisions about the partition table type to use according to the firmware setup in combination with e.g the target loader type on s390.

Tue Jan 12 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Check read write filesystem prior to mounting If a filesystem type could be identified on the read write partition check it before mounting to eliminate a potential dirty state
Tue Jan 12 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Cascade exfat mount try normal mount first, if this does not work try fuse mount Normally this is done automatically by the mount program but if not we will give the direct fuse mount a chance
Tue Jan 12 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed Makefile target to build data structures A change in kiwi/schema/kiwi.rnc triggers the build of the schema rng version as well as an auto update of the data structures via python\'s generateDS. The intermediate xsd schema format is only relevant for the data structure creation process
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make createFileSystem more robust When passing in a loop file instead of a device name, the method should be smart enough to handle the name without shell evaluation
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added support for exfat as hybrid filesystem In addition to fat also exfat is now supported as persistent write filesystem. Because of the limitations of a fat filesystem fat and exfat are only used as a container filesystem providing an ext4 linux filesystem as a cowfile. The algorithm to create the size of the cow file has also been changed to use half of the size of the write partition or on fat a max size of 4G. The size of the cowfile is also prepared to become overwritten. However the XML definition and implementation to do this is still missing
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Reread partition table after hybrid setup The hybrid write partition is created via fdisk. Some version of fdisk does not send the ioctl to let the kernel reread the table or fdisk itself holds it busy. Thus we actively initiate a reread via blockdev
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Optimize ext4 hybrid write filesystem options Optimized for 512kB erase block size
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Use mount options to increase overlay performace For overlay filesystems not writing into a tmpfs performance is more important than safety. We use this combination of options for now, if you encounter stability problems please let us know

Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Refactor and cleanup setupReadWrite Fix misleading error message and refactor the code to be less complex and more clear in the processing of tasks
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Allow custom cowfile name for persistent data Instead of a fixed name \'cowfile\' we allow a custom name which is predefined in HYBRID_PERSISTENT_FILENAME and prepared to become overwritten by an XML defintion whose implementation will follow later. Reason for the change is that a cowfile is visible as plain data file to the operating system if e.g used on a live stick. It should be more clear to the user what this file is good for
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Protect mkfs.exfat from being deleted Added to the strip tools section in order to keep it in the initrd
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added support for exfat creation and probing In preparation to use exfat instead of vfat in a loop container for persistent data it\'s required to provide support for mkfs.exfat
Mon Jan 11 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Make loop_setup and loop_delete more robust The methods did not cope well with filenames containing bash characters with special meaning e.g spaces. For use with a iso hybrid cowfile whose name is visible in the OS the methods should be able to work with any given filename

Tue Jan 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added install pxe archive support
Tue Jan 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added warning message if pxedeploy section is used At the moment there is no class to build the pxe client config file from information provided with the optional pxedeploy section. However this is not fatal to the build because the file could be created manually too. Thus a warning message is shown which will go away when the pxe client config file creation has been ported
Tue Jan 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - cleanup test data to be consistent
Tue Jan 5 13:00:00 2016 msAATTsuse.com - Added recovery setup

Tue Dec 22 13:00:00 2015 msAATTsuse.com - Fixed LUKS setup for dracut The system image has to provide /etc/crypttab to allow dracut to create a working initrd for reboot. In addition the name of the luks map must be \'luks\' to make dracut happy.
