* Thu Sep 12 2024 Michal Suchanek - bootloader: Fix up ppc64 bootinfo again To make the code look pretty extra newline is inserted at the start of bootinfo file. This appears to break boot on Power9 PowerVM LPARs.
* Thu Sep 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for erofs erofs is an alternative readonly filesystem that can be used as alternative to squashfs. This Fixes #2633
* Thu Sep 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed enclave integration test The SELinux policy of Fedora Rawhide when running completely in an initrd is not suitable to let the system boot up. Thus the current solution is to boot in permissive mode. A better solution for the future would probably be a selinux policy for enclaves
* Wed Sep 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - limit eif_build requires to fedora >= 42
* Wed Sep 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.8 → 10.1.9

* Mon Sep 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed documentation header Fixed double H1 headers from the boxbuild tweaks chapter.
* Mon Sep 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.6 → 10.1.7
* Mon Sep 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Move EXEC log message to the right place The log information of the command execution was not printed directly before the actual command invocation. There are other actions after the log information (e.g Path.which) which itself produce log information prior the real subprocess execution. This is very misleading when reading the log file and fixed in this commit.
* Mon Sep 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for architectures in deb source file When apt resolves packages on a multiarch repo it can happen that dependencies for packages from other architectures are pulled into the solver process but are not provided by any repository. To overcome this behavior the repository can be setup to serve packages only for a specified architecture or list of architectures. This is related to OSInside/kiwi-descriptions#102
* Fri Sep 06 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.5 → 10.1.6
* Thu Sep 05 2024 Kostiantyn Astakhov <16296930+kastakhovAATTusers.noreply.github.com>- add allowExtraConfig and exportFlags to ovftool options Add allowExtraConfig and exportFlags to ovftool options
* Thu Sep 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.4 → 10.1.5
* Wed Sep 04 2024 Steffen Winterfeldt - create EFI/BOOT only if UEFI boot is intended
* Wed Sep 04 2024 Steffen Winterfeldt - Fix boot support for ISO media on ppc64 add CHRP boot support for ppc64 and add xorriso option to avoid file name reduction to MS-DOS compatible 8.3 format
* Tue Sep 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix initrd permissions kiwi stored the initrd for ISO images as 600 which might be too restrictive. This commit makes sure the initrd is stored as 644 and Fixes bsc#1229257
* Tue Sep 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed ramdisk size setup For setting up the brd rd_size option kiwi creates 99-brd.conf used at load time of the kernel brd driver. The location for the conf file is set to /etc/modprobe.d/ However, in newer versions the location has changed to /usr/lib/modprobe.d/ and /etc/modprobe.d is no longer expected to exist. This commit makes sure /etc/modprobe.d is created if not present.
* Tue Sep 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.3 → 10.1.4
* Mon Sep 02 2024 kastakhov <16296930+kastakhovAATTusers.noreply.github.com>- Add note about guestOS values for vmware ovftools.
* Mon Sep 02 2024 kastakhov <16296930+kastakhovAATTusers.noreply.github.com>- Add note about guestOS values for vmware platform.
* Mon Sep 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed resize of dos table type on s390 On s390, parted is used to detect the partition table type. In contrast to blkid the name for DOS tables is reported as \'msdos\' and not \'dos\' which impacts several conditions in the kiwi initrd code which checks for \'dos\'. This commit fixes the get_partition_table_type() method to return a consistent table name for DOS tables. This Fixes bsc#1228729
* Mon Sep 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Revert \"remove dependency on /usr/bin/python\" This reverts commit 15b450188483b567ca10bb459bf50ed90e905bb7. The change provided here entirely broke kiwi in OBS. With this patch applied every image build in OBS fails with the following message: \'line 1: /usr/sbin/kiwi: No such file or directory\'
* Mon Sep 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.2 → 10.1.3
* Sun Sep 01 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix bundle extension for archive types When bundling result files that uses an archive type like tbz or docker, kiwi creates them with the extension tar.xz/tar.gz The bundler code only uses the extension from the last tuple in a \".\" split which is wrong for \"tar.\" filenames. This commit adds an exception to the prefix rule for this output filenames and Fixes #2628
* Sun Sep 01 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix ImageSystem mount procedure The mount() method did not take custom partitions into account. This commit fixes it. This Fixes #2619
* Tue Aug 27 2024 Petr Gajdos - remove dependency on /usr/bin/python
* Sun Aug 25 2024 Neal Gompa - Add support for isomd5sum for tagging iso files The isomd5sum tool suite is used and available on all supported distributions except SUSE distributions, and is necessary to produce conformant ISOs for most Linux distributions. This change adds support for isomd5sum tool suite for kiwi, though it does not extend the kiwi-live dracut module to use it. The upstream dracut dmsquash-live module must be used instead. Co-authored-by: Dan Čermák
* Sat Aug 24 2024 Neal Gompa - kiwi/builder/live: Log the correct value for Application ID Since it is now possible to set a custom application ID, we want to see this when it is being used for the image.
* Sat Aug 24 2024 Neal Gompa - kiwi/builder/live: Clean up leftover dracut configuration file The existence of this file breaks installers on live media that sync the full filesystem to disk and are not aware of this configuration before generating the target system initramfs.
* Fri Aug 23 2024 Neal Gompa - Allow string versions and test \"word\" versions There are descriptions out in the wild that use \"non-numeric\" versions in their descriptions, particularly without separators for splitting. This change switches all of this to strings rather than assuming numbers and gracefully handles the single word case.
* Sat Aug 17 2024 Holden R. Fried - Add documentation for boxbuild tweaks
* Fri Aug 16 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed wrong log level on --logfile When using --logfile, the log generated there matches the stdout log (which without --debug, does not include any debug info). This is in contrast to the automatically generated one in the output directory, which always does and also not following the way how it is documented. This Fixes #2503
* Mon Aug 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed arch flag for namedCollection The arch flag in a namedCollection was not taken into account. This commit fixes this and also makes sure the result information is sorted and unique like we have it for the package lists. This Fixes #2600
* Fri Aug 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix handling of zipl.conf in plain zipl bootloader When using the plain zipl bootloader kiwi created a /etc/zipl.conf file. However, this file was only useful during image build as it points to a loop target device and geometry but does not represent a proper config file to be used in the running system. In addition the different distributors provides their own version and layout of the zipl.conf to be used inside of the system and with their respective tools. Thus this commit changes the way how kiwi operates in a way that the zipl.conf used in the initial image only exists during the image build process. An eventual present /etc/zipl.conf will not be touched by kiwi. This Fixes #2597
* Thu Aug 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.1 → 10.1.2
* Thu Aug 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Improve error reporting for remote deployment Add new method called show_log_and_quit which displays the written error log file as a file box to the user
* Thu Aug 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update test-image-orthos integration test Update the test such that you can also build it locally. Change the remote installation target to be a ramdisk for easy testing of remote deployments
* Thu Aug 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Setup default minimum volume size per filesystem The former method provided a static value but there are huge differences for the minimum size requirement of a filesystem. For example extX is fine with 30MB whereas XFS requires 300MB. This commit adds a more dynamic default value based on the used filesystem.
* Wed Aug 07 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Increase default volume size So far 30MB was set as default volume size which is by far too small for a number of filesystems, e.g btrfs and also XFS. This commit increases the default volume size such that all modern filesystems builds if the default volume size is used.
* Wed Aug 07 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update test-image-raid Apart from testing raid this integration test also tests a certain LVM volume setup. The test has been updated to use the btrfs filesystem because it has the most strict size requirements.
* Tue Aug 06 2024 Dan Čermák - Use shutil.which for Path.which
* Tue Aug 06 2024 Dan Čermák - Drop Path.remove & Path.rename Both methods were only used in one place each and it makes much more sense to use the pathlib builtin methods instead
* Tue Aug 06 2024 Dan Čermák - Replace Path.create implementation with pathlib builtin
* Tue Aug 06 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.1.0 → 10.1.1
* Mon Aug 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Mandatory package scripts for Debian bootstrap Make sure to run some mandatory package pre/post scripts such that settings like /etc/passwd, a root user, etc.. exists. This action can also be done in post_bootstrap.sh but I think it\'s better to do this in the core code
* Mon Aug 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.28 → 10.1.0
* Mon Aug 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - kiwi no longer uses debootstrap For building Debian based images we used debootstrap to bootstrap an empty root until apt-get could be used to complete the job. This has now changed such hat apt-get is also used for bootstrapping a new system. The concept and also potential alternatives to the way kiwi bootstraps Debian based systems can be found here:
* https://osinside.github.io/kiwi/working_with_images/build_without_debianbootstrap.html Due to the drop of debootstrap it might happen that package lists of existing image descriptions needs to be extended with packages that were formerly pulled in by debootstrap but did not get properly pulled in with the new apt based bootstrap. As reference please check out the integration tests from here:
* https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/tree/main/build-tests/x86/ubuntu
* https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/tree/main/build-tests/x86/debian Thanks
* Mon Aug 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.27 → 10.0.28
* Sat Aug 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update documentation kiwi no longer uses debootstrap
* Fri Aug 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix test_process_result_bundle_as_rpm
* Fri Aug 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix Debian/Ubuntu integration tests Remove package hacks for debootstrap, explicitly add required packages and or configurations.
* Fri Aug 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop types-pkg_resources Got removed from PyPI
* Wed Jul 31 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix test_process_result_bundle_as_rpm os.path.basename was called on a MagicMock object which sometimes confused pytest
* Wed Jul 31 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix kiwi-repart restrictions The kiwi repart dracut module reads a profile file and if it does not exists it dies in the initrd. However, that profile file is not mandatory for the main resize functionality. Thus this commit turns this into a warning message. In addition the module-setup for 90kiwi-repart makes sure to include the required and optional profile files. This Fixes bsc#1228118
* Tue Jul 30 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Do not exclude the .profile env file by default kiwi\'s initrd modules read a .profile file which gets included into the initrd produced at build time. To allow rebuild of a host-only initrd from the booted system this information should be present such that it is possible to re-use kiwi initrd code.
* Tue Jul 30 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Get rid of debootstrap Replace debootstrap with an apt-get based pre-download of packages followed by a dpkg-deb extraction. This Fixes #2599
* Tue Jul 30 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.26 → 10.0.27
* Tue Jul 30 2024 Fabian Vogt - Fix dracut-interactive with systemd 256 With systemd 256, /usr (and thus also /bin/) is read-only in the initrd. Move dracut-interactive and its .service into /run instead.
* Sun Jul 21 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.25 → 10.0.26
* Fri Jul 19 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise scripts_testing.rst
* Fri Jul 19 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise schema_extensions.rst
* Wed Jul 17 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Pass kernel cmdline to agama In the agama integration test make sure to pass along the kernel boot parameters to allow controlling the behavior of agama better
* Mon Jul 15 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add directive to incorporate custom files Usually custom files are managed by placing them as overlay files or archives. However, overlay files must be structured inside of a root/ subdirectory and archive files are binary data. It is therefore not straight forward to just reference one or more files as source files to the image description to be placed into the image. This commit adds a new element which allows to do this. This Fixes #1953
* Sun Jul 14 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.24 → 10.0.25
* Fri Jul 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix mocking of test_process_result_bundle_as_rpm
* Fri Jul 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed logging behavior of Compress::get_format The get_format() method allows to check which compression format a given input stream has. This is done by calling the supported compression tools in a row and let them check if they can deal with the provided data or not. As a result error messages are logged for streams that some tool doesn\'t understand. However, those error messages are no errors and only the result of the checking. This information in the kiwi log file is confusing and several users already complained when they see information like: EXEC: Failed with stderr: /usr/bin/xz: ...: File format not recognized This commit changes how the compression tooling is called in a way that no exception is raised (which leads to the above error message) but the result returncode is used to decide on the success or error of the respective compression tooling.
* Fri Jul 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Allow to set custom ISO Application ID Add new attribute to be set in the ISO header main block. The application ID was used as identifier in the legacy initrd code from former kiwi versions. Because of this there is still the compat layer which sets an App ID as MBR identifier string unless the new application_id overwrites it. This Fixes #1810
* Fri Jul 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.23 → 10.0.24
* Thu Jul 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Added integration test for SUSE agama installer This integration test builds a self-install ISO image which drops the SUSE Agama installer into a ramdisk for performing an interactive installation procedure to test Agama
* Thu Jul 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add --set-type-attr and --set-release-version Allow to set/overwrite type section attributes via the cmdline. Allow to set/add the release-version element via the cmdline. This Fixes #2478 and Fixes #2588
* Wed Jul 10 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update integration test for eficsm Update the type of the Secure profile of the live image integration test as well as the type of the simple-disk test to make use of the eficsm=\"false\" attribute to switch off CSM mode and test an EFI only layout.
* Wed Jul 10 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add new eficsm type attribute Allow to produce EFI/UEFI images without hybrid CSM capabilities. This Fixes #2407
* Wed Jul 10 2024 Dmitri Popov - kiwi_plugin_architecture.rst
* Wed Jul 10 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise kiwi_from_python.rst
* Wed Jul 10 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Wait for loop device detach to complete Detaching a loop device via \'losetup -d\' is an async operation. Once the command returns the loop can still be associated with the block special. Therefore this commit waits until the block device got released or a timeout is hit. This Fixes #2580
* Tue Jul 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update requires for kiwi-systemdeps-disk-images On Tumbleweed several changes caused tools like strings or the codepage for mtools to be missing in a standard installation. For building disk images especially EFI capable ones with vendor information kiwi needs the above tool. This commit adds the packages providing them on Tumbleweed to the meta systemdeps for disk images. This Fixes #2585
* Mon Jul 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Supplements are not understood by Debian/Ubuntu
* Fri Jul 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add new builder for enclaves Add new EnclaveBuilder class which allows to build initrd-only image types. The first enclave implementation covers aws-nitro images produced via the eif_build tooling.
* Thu Jul 04 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Split out bash completion into a sub-package Per review of the SUSE packaging team we should split out the bash completion into its own sub-package to give users better control over the completion feature.
* Thu Jul 04 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.22 → 10.0.23
* Thu Jul 04 2024 Neal Gompa - package: Add fully qualified provides for python3-kiwi in spec On SUSE distributions, currently the expectation is that packages built against the Python interpreter should have fully qualified names in the form of pythonXY-. Additionally, all other Linux distributions prefer something similar in the form of pythonX.Y-. This ensures we have those names so that distribution dependency generation works as expected.
* Thu Jul 04 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for arch selector on volumes The optional attribute allows to create the volume only if it matches the specified host architecture. Multiple architecture names can be specified as comma separated list.
* Wed Jun 26 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add rd.kiwi.oem.force_resize boot option Forces the disk resize process on an OEM disk image. If set, no sanity check for unpartitioned/free space is performed and also an eventually configured configuration from the image description will not be taken into account. This Fixes bsc#1224389
* Tue Jun 25 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed leap integration tests For whatever reason procps is not longer pulled in by the core dependencies. Thus we have to explicitly request it
* Thu Jun 20 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix potential race condition in loop detach The call to \'losetup -d\' is in fact an async operation. Once the command returns the loop can still be associated with the former file because it gets lazy unbound and releases later. Prior re-use of the same loop device it is therefore required to wait until the kernel event queue is processed.
* Wed Jun 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed repository include to image with dnf When specifying a repository element with imageinclude=\"true\", kiwi permanently adds the repo file inside of the image. The distribution standard path is used to store the repo file in this case. With dnf a package manager exists that is primarily used on Fedora and RHEL systems. Thus the standard path for the repo files is set to \"/etc/yum.repos.d\". However, dnf can also be used for other rpm based distributions e.g SUSE. On such a system the default path does not exist or is different because another package manager is the default. This commit makes sure that the expected path is created prior adding any repo files.
* Tue Jun 18 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.21 → 10.0.22
* Mon Jun 17 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed selinux labels for boot files When kiwi calls the bootloader config and installation modules several files gets created as unlabeled_t because the labeling happened earlier. This commit ensures that setfiles gets called after BootLoaderConfig and/or BootLoaderInstall has done its job. This Fixes #2568
* Mon Jun 17 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add bash to package requirements If there are script evaluations that does not specify an interpreter, kiwi uses bash for it. The same applies for sub-process invocations using shell pipelines. Thus the bash shell is a required tool for kiwi under certain circumstances. Further details in Issue #2567
* Wed Jun 12 2024 Pavel Zhukov - test-image-live: add shadow package Fixes: KiwiCommandError: chroot: stderr: /usr/bin/chroot: failed to run command ‘usermod’: No such file or directory
* Tue Jun 11 2024 Fabian Vogt - Fix displaying the image verification failure dialog Kiwi must wait for the previous dialog to finish before showing another one as it\'s the same systemd service behind it.
* Mon Jun 10 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Allow to customize the path of the isoscan cowfile Added rd.live.cowfile.path option to specify the cowfile at any path below the isoscan-loop-mount. This Fixes #2554
* Mon Jun 10 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Better error handling on grub vendor dir lookup The strings command is used to lookup the in-efi binary encoded vendor path. However, if the strings or bash command is not availabe on the build host, the command silently failed and moved into the standard (non vendored) EFI boot path. This can lead to a broken boot for those distros and image targets which requires a vendor directory and should lead to an error message instead of a successful image build. This Fixes #2565
* Mon Jun 10 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed profile variable settings for preferences It\'s allowed to have multiple preferences sections. If those sections provides the same value multiple times, e.g keytable, the last one in the row will win. The setup of the variables in .profile environment file for the preferences elements is not following this rule and used the first section not the last. This commit fixes the profile variables to match the actual setup and Fixes #2560
* Thu Jun 06 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise users.rst
* Thu Jun 06 2024 Dmitri Popov - REvise systemdeps.rst
* Thu Jun 06 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise shell_scripts.rst
* Thu Jun 06 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add initrd boot option rd.kiwi.allow_plymouth By default kiwi stops plymouth if present and active in the initrd. Setting rd.kiwi.allow_plymouth will keep plymouth active in the initrd including all effects that might have to the available consoles. This is related to bsc#1214824
* Thu Jun 06 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop use of obsolete tool isconsole isconsole was provided with the dropped kiwi-tools package. It was a simple C application that checked the capabilities of the current console. In the context of fbiterm it was just used to provide proper error messages which fbiterm on its own did not show. As also fbiterm is on its way to become obsolete and isconsole is already no longer present, it\'s ok to just drop that extra check and therefore keep the fbiterm mode functional if one manages to include fbiterm and its fonts into the initrd
* Tue Jun 04 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.20 → 10.0.21
* Mon Jun 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add missing write_meta_data method to BLS base The standard bootloader interface class provided a method named write_meta_data which is expected to be implemented in the specialized bootloader implementation. For BLS bootloaders this method was missing in the BLS base class. write_meta_data can provide additional cmdline options for booting. If not covered some boot options might be missing. This patch fixes it
* Mon Jun 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix TW integration test to build outside OBS
* Mon Jun 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Make sure BootLoaderConfig fixes are effective The BootLoaderConfigGrub2 class has methods to fix the grub-mkconfig generated files. It does that by mounting the system and changing the respective files after the mkconfig call. However, after the change the class instance stays open in combination with BootLoaderInstallGrub2 instance which itself under certain circumstances also mounts the system to call grub-install. At the time grub-install is called it cannot be guaranteed that all changes has been written unless an explicit umount in the BootLoaderConfigGrub2 class instance happened. This commit address the potential race condition.
* Mon Jun 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.19 → 10.0.20
* Mon Jun 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update rawhide integration test Use new arch attribute for testing in the repository element of the rawhide/test-image-live-disk integration test.
* Sat Jun 01 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for arch attr in repository element Allow to provide different repository sections per architecture
* Fri May 31 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add --list-profiles to image info Allow to list available profiles from the processed image description
* Thu May 30 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.18 → 10.0.19
* Wed May 29 2024 Neal Gompa - package: Always include patches and number all sources and patches This ensures that stuff is applied reliably and all sources and patches are included as expected. Then the added kiwi-revert-bls-default-for-suse.patch is applied conditionally for SUSE distributions.
* Wed May 29 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.17 → 10.0.18

* Sun May 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix sdist upstream tarball contents The .virtualenv.dev-requirements.txt file is referenced by tox.ini but not put into the sdist tarball and therefore missing in the pypi upstream data.
* Fri May 10 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop use of obsolete pkg_resources As documented in https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html the use of pkg_resources is obsolete and will cause issues. So happened on Debian unstable. This Fixes #2548
* Thu May 09 2024 Adam Williamson - RepositoryDnf5: correct defaults, set system_cachedir The \"defaults\" in `use_default_location` here are the dnf4 defaults, not the dnf5 defaults, so let\'s update them. Also, for dnf5, we need to set `system_cachedir` instead of `cachedir` - see https://dnf5.readthedocs.io/en/latest/misc/caching.7.html , `system_cachedir` is the cache location used when running as root, `cachedir` is the cache location used when running as a regular user. Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson
* Wed May 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.15 → 10.0.16
* Wed May 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - poetry build doesn\'t like symlinks The sdist tarball produced by poetry build does not include all files and skipped symlinks in test/data. This caused the unit test run to fail if called from within that sources

* Thu May 02 2024 Neal Gompa - doc: Document the bls option for the grub bootloader
* Wed May 01 2024 Neal Gompa - Temporarily revert grub-bls default to false for SUSE distributions For the time being, SUSE distributions cannot handle KIWI\'s default to use BLS with GRUB2. Until they catch up, revert this for them only.
* Wed May 01 2024 Neal Gompa - kiwi/bootloader: restore backward compatibility for grub2 with bls The change to introduce the bls parameter broke backward compatibility with all existing kiwi descriptions for distributions that default to BLS. This fixes that by allowing the unset state to be equivalent to enabling it. Fixes: 8a8190098cb30358459ba10a4db1ba6446eee8c2
* Tue Apr 30 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.12 → 10.0.13
* Mon Apr 29 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Overwrite compression setting only if randomized When building an encrypted image, the bundler never compressed the result. This overwrite from the runtime configuration and the default compression setting actually only makes sense when the image is randomized because only then a compression is for sure useless. This Fixes #2540
* Mon Apr 29 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Make sure lsblk output is sorted by dev name lsblk without the sorting option can provide the list of devices in different order. This patch makes sure lsblk sorts the output by the device name. This Fixes bsc#1223374
* Fri Apr 26 2024 Romain Geissler - Stop leaking plugins/{priorities,versionlock}.conf file with dnf4/5. This fixes the fedora issue https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2270364 Signed-off-by: Romain Geissler
* Fri Apr 26 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix luks_randomize setting Make sure the value passed for luks_randomize in the description becomes effective. It was not possible to switch off luks_randomize because any \"not\" value was turned into a true value. The actual default should therefore only apply in case luks_randomize is not specified at all which means only a None value will turn into a true value for this setting.
* Fri Apr 26 2024 Adam Williamson - Fix package removal with dnf5 dnf5 does not implement `dnf autoremove ` as a synonym for `--setopt=clean_requirements_on_remove=true remove ` as dnf4 did. So, we should do it this way instead. Signed-off-by: Adam Williamson
* Thu Apr 25 2024 Alberto Planas - Add \'bls\' parameter for the bootloader
* Sat Apr 20 2024 Iván Chavero - Fix efifatimagesize attribute type The efifatimagesize attribute type value is set to \"oem\" but the documentation says that it is intended to be also used for creating ISO images. This causes a schema error when this attribute is set on a profile with type \"iso\" and blocks changing the EFI boot image size which is a problem if the image is bigger than 20M. This commit allows to specify the attribute also for the \"iso\" type
* Fri Apr 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add missing tool requires Latest changes on the bundler used sed and file which were not required by the spec. This is related to bsc#1221790
* Fri Apr 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add vmdk format to test-image-bundle-format Allow to check if the bundle format rename is applied in the new bundle reference checker code
* Fri Apr 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix file references in kiwi bundler result files When using a custom bundle_format the kiwi result bundler renames the output files to match the bundle_format. However, if there are output files that references other output files, for example the vmware binary (.vmdk) in the guest config file (.vmx) then this renaming breaks those result files. This patch adds a reference file check for all non binary output files if they contain a reference to another output file and updates the data accordingly. This Fixes bsc#1221790
* Fri Apr 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Don\'t compress vmdk images Like with qcow2 it\'s not expected that the format type gets compressed in the bundle
* Fri Apr 19 2024 Alberto Planas - kiwi.rnc: define bls parameter for bootloader
* Fri Apr 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Keep runtime_checker_metadata.yml as module file It was a bad idea to install a mandatory source file outside the module path. This prevents running kiwi from source
* Fri Apr 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed Arch build Forgot to add install of runtime_checker_metadata.yml
* Thu Apr 18 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update tumbleweed/test-image-disk integration test
* Thu Apr 18 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Handle XSLT errors better Make sure etree.XSLTApplyError is a known error in the kiwi scope and raise an appropriate exception
* Wed Apr 17 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise profiles.rst
* Wed Apr 17 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise packages.rst

* Wed Apr 17 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.11 → 10.0.12
* Mon Apr 15 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop concept of volumes_mounted_initially The volume mount should be the same process no matter if it happens for the first time or subsequently
* Mon Apr 15 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed mountpoint to use for read-only property Make sure get_mountpoint() is used to retrieve the correct mountpoint for the root entry point. Using the self.mountpoint member is not always correct
* Mon Apr 15 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Prevent extra volume mount/umount on btrfs For setting up the read-only property an extra mount of the btrfs sub-volumes was issued. However, all volumes are mounted at that time. Thus it\'s not required to mount them again, resulting in a busy state because of the auto-snapshot mounts which does not get umounted and keeps a busy state until the lazy umount kicks in. This Fixes #2529
* Tue Apr 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix typo in documentation main page Superfluous format sequence
* Mon Apr 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Added another search path for signed EFI binaries Add /usr/lib/grub/
*-efi-signed to search for shim signed EFI binaries too. This Fixes #2525
* Mon Apr 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed runtime checks for dracut module packages Unfortunately the packaging of kiwi on Debian follows different naming conventions for dracut module packages which causes the runtime check to fail. This commit allows to check for multiple package names and adds the variants used on Debian. This Fixes #2524
* Thu Apr 04 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.10 → 10.0.11
* Wed Apr 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add schema upgrade opportunity for old schemas kiwi files using a schema version < 7.4 are no longer supported by kiwi >= v10.x.x. Thus this commit provides the required XSL stylesheets to upgrade older schemas to v74 such that they can be consumed by the latest kiwi version. The needed xsltproc instruction is placed on the main page of the documentation.
* Wed Apr 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Delete kiwi compat mode The compat mode allowed a kiwi v7 legacy argument translation and is obsolete since a long time
* Wed Apr 03 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Make excludes in bootstrap effective for dnf Followup fix to really use the ignore information in the dnf package manager implementation. This Fixes #2499
* Thu Mar 28 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.9 → 10.0.10
* Wed Mar 27 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.8 → 10.0.9
* Wed Mar 27 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix setup of discoverable partitions Make sure GUI is unique and typecode is set according to the standard. This Fixes #2517
* Tue Mar 26 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise customize_boot
* Mon Mar 25 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Live ISO Wait for udev events after repart Make sure to wait for the event queue to become empty after the creation of the write partition. When kiwi calls the code to create the write partition this emits new udev events. It\'s important to wait for the event queue to become empty to avoid a potential regression on the use of the device nodes. In the processing of the events it can happen that a device gets removed and re-added. If we don\'t want for udev to process the entire queue it can happen that the wrong block device is used. This wrong selection is only possible because the way how hybrid ISOs are designed exposes both, the disk and the partition for the root device with the same label. This Fixes bsc#1213595
* Sat Mar 23 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.7 → 10.0.8
* Fri Mar 22 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix zipl setup for use with custom btrfs root vol In the setup case that btrfs is used for the system and the root partition is on a custom named volume (not /), this information was not passed to the zipl bootloader instance and this caused the mounting of the overall root system to fail. This commit fixes it
* Fri Mar 22 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Allow ignore stanza in bootstrap So far the stanza was only effective when placed as part of the type=\"image\" packages section. This commit allows to place it also to the type=\"bootstrap\" packages. This Fixes #2499
* Wed Mar 20 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.6 → 10.0.7
* Tue Mar 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for %v in bundle format Allow a placeholder for the entire version text as provided by the section
* Tue Mar 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Allow bundle format to be set on the commandline The bundle format is usually specified as part of the image description in the bundle_format attribute. This commit also allows to specify/overwrite the bundle format in the kiwi result bundle command via the new --bundle-format option. This Fixes #2509
* Tue Mar 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.5 → 10.0.6
* Mon Mar 18 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixup cleanup of zipl templates Make sure temporary modifications to the zipl template and config file are not effective in the later system. This Fixes bsc#1221469

* Wed Mar 13 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Followup fix for use of /boot/zipl The mounting of /boot/zipl is also only required if the bootloader is set to grub2_s390x_emu
* Wed Mar 13 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update schema version in spec file
* Tue Mar 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop rpm-dir from allowed repository type Using an arbitrary list of rpm packages as repository is a zypper only feature, barely tested and from our pov not really needed as a simple createrepo call turns any custom list of packages into a clean rpm-md repo including metadata. This commit drops rpm-dir from the list of allowed repository types and auto converts those image descriptions which makes use of it. Please note this does not prevent users from using flat package directories with zypper, because the type argument in the repository section is an optional attribute. In case there is no type specification zypper auto-detects and handles the data as it handles it. This Fixes #1926
* Tue Mar 12 2024 Dmitri Popov - Revise system_build.rst
* Tue Mar 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixup use of /boot/zipl Only for the grub2_s390x_emu bootloader setup an optional boot partition setup must be put to /boot/zipl rather than to /boot
* Mon Mar 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Lookup distro provided BLS entries for zipl Check if there is already an entry file name produced by the distribution logic/policy. If we can find an already present entry name, prefer this name over the kiwi naming policy
* Mon Mar 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Install audit in s390 rawhide integration test

* Thu Mar 07 2024 Neal Gompa - Ensure we use a compatible docopt-ng version To ensure our trick to switch between docopt and docopt-ng works, we need to have a higher minimum version for docopt-ng where compatibility with the original docopt was restored.
* Wed Mar 06 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed delta_root build The support for delta_root allows to build a delta container image from a given base container. Due to the refactoring of the kiwi code base using context managers no explicit deletion of instances happens anymore. This uncovered a weakness of the delta root code at the level of the overlay mount. At the time of the umount there are still active temporary mount handlers which keeps the mountpoint busy. In order to fix this properly also the PackageManager factory is now a context manager and the Repository factory received a cleanup method which is called when the PackageManager goes out of scope. This refactoring also fixes the busy state when building deltas
* Wed Mar 06 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 10.0.1 → 10.0.2

* Thu Feb 29 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix activation of luks pool in the initrd kiwi called systemd-cryptsetup directly which does not take the settings available in /etc/crypttab into account. This commit changes the activation procedure in a way that the generator created unit file systemd-cryptsetupAATT... is used This Fixes bsc#1219009
* Thu Feb 29 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Apply changelog fixes by glob Does not require Makefile changes when maintaining branches
* Wed Feb 28 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add changelog fix file for commit deb6ca The commit used a wrong e-mail address which should not land in the created changes file for the packaging
* Wed Feb 28 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Set default output console to gfxterm for grub If no console setting is done in the image description for grub the default output console is set to: gfxterm and the default input console is set to: console. This Fixes bsc#1219074
* Wed Feb 28 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Catch error condition more specific Only a KiwiCommandError is an exception we want to catch and handle, everything else is a bug and should not be masked
* Tue Feb 27 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add silent flag to CommandCapabilities an instance of CommandCapabilities allows to check for specific options of a command. If the parsing of options has failed a warning message is created by default. Under certain circumstances like the check for the --help option of setfiles, such a warning message can be misleading information in the build log file. Therefore the new silent flag allows to suppress the warning message and the flag is used for the capabilities of the setfiles utility. This Fixes #2350
* Tue Feb 27 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix documentation preferlvm example The custom volumes example shows a faulty XML description. This Fixes #2483
* Tue Feb 27 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Move SystemPrepare to context manager Change the SystemPrepare class to context manager. All code using SystemPrepare was updated to the following with statement: with SystemPrepare(...) as system_prepare: system_prepare.some_member() This completes the refactoring from finalizers to context managers and Fixes #2412
* Mon Feb 26 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fallback to built-in partition UUID table If systemd-id128 is not found or failed use the kiwi built-in table as defined by the UAPI group to assign the partition UUID
* Mon Feb 26 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Move DiskFormat to context manager Change the DiskFormat Factory to be a context manager. All code using DiskFormat was updated to the following with statement: with DiskFormat(...).new as disk_format: disk_format.some_member() This is related to Issue #2412
* Sat Feb 24 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Added requirement for xmltodict to spec Actually the real issue to this defect seems to live in the anymarkup source code. It seems that the import of xmltodict at the beginning of the core module is optional, but later on when handling XML xmltodict seems to be mandatory, see here: https://github.com/bkabrda/anymarkup-core/blob/08896a8215819edcc413e3f2588518046 9a4c2ed/anymarkup_core/__init__.py#L210-L229. Because this issue can result in a \"ImportError: Can\'t parse xml: xmltodict not installed\" turning kiwi into a bad exit condition I propose to add this python requirement to the kiwi spec as a workaround and try fixing the anymarkup packaging and module setup upstream in addition. To my knowledge all relevant distributions provides xmltodict
* Sat Feb 24 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed type hint for pinch_system method The PackageManager argument is allowed to be optional
* Sat Feb 24 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for discoverable partitions Set PARTUUID according to systemd-id128 if applicable This Fixes #1385

* Wed Feb 21 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Allow terminal emulation setup from the cmdline Using rd.kiwi.term will export the TERM variable into the initrd environment. In case the default value for the terminal emulation is not appropriate rd.kiwi.term can be used to overwrite the default. The environment is also passed to the systemd unit which calls dialog based programs in kiwi dracut code, such that the TERM setting will be effective there too. For example: rd.kiwi.term=vt100 This is related to bsc#1218095
* Tue Feb 20 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed implementation for oem-shutdown If specified oem-shutdown caused a reboot -f -p which is a powerdown but not a graceful shutdown. This commit fixes this by using systemctl halt for a clean shutdown. This Fixes #2474
* Mon Feb 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Move VolumeManager to context manager Change the VolumeManager Factory to be a context manager. All code using VolumeManager was updated to the following with statement: with VolumeManager(...).new as volume_manager: volume_manager.some_member() This is related to Issue #2412
* Mon Feb 19 2024 Dan Čermák <45594031+dcermakAATTusers.noreply.github.com>- Refactor Command class Command.run() currently has a bit of a confusing behavior: if raise_on_error is False and the executable is not found, then a weird CommandT is returned (return code is -1 and stdout+stderr is None). This makes it possible to hanlde command not found errors separately, but it makes that needlessly verbose. So instead, let\'s just return None in
*this
* special case. That in turn uncovered, that in most cases when we set `raise_on_error=True`, we actually want an error if the command is not present but no error if the command fails to execute (e.g. because it returns -1 if you run `$cmd --version`). Hence we introduce the flag `raise_on_command_not_found`, which causes an exception to be raised if the command is not found. This makes it independent of the `raise_on_error` flag. Additionally, we add a small optimization: if command starts with /, then we assume it\'s a full path and we omit the call to which (and just check whether it exists). Co-authored-by: Marcus Schäfer
* Mon Feb 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Move ImageSystem to context manager Change the ImageSystem class to context manager. All code using ImageSystem was updated to the following with statement: with ImageSystem(...) as image_system: image_system.some_member() This is related to Issue #2412
* Mon Feb 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Allow empty cherry-picks for compliance test If we cherry-pick from main to master the compliance check will notice that a commit already exists. This is not an error and we can allow to continue the picking via --allow-empty
* Mon Feb 19 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Followup fix for .profile.extra Allow to source .profile.extra such that it is possible to read and act on e.g cmdline parameters. This is related to bsc#1218095
* Sun Feb 18 2024 Alexandre Detiste - Use unittest.mock from core python everywhere mock was an independent module that has been merged into the Python standard library.
* Fri Feb 16 2024 David Cassany - Include partprobe in initrd for s390 This commit includes partprobe, in addition to parted, on s390 based systems. Otherwise partx is used and apparently it does not properly support s390. Fixes bsc#1219798 Signed-off-by: David Cassany
* Fri Feb 16 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed MicroOS integration test temporarily disable ignition/combustion/growpart and use kiwi\'s resize code for testing, oem-resize set to true
* Thu Feb 15 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed kis documentation The procedure to run qemu with a filesystem image as disk was not quite correct.
* Wed Feb 14 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update documentation about partition clones Using the root_clone attribute comes with some requirements and consequences. This commit documents them
* Wed Feb 14 2024 Fabian Vogt - Improve documentation generation With Sphinx >= 6.0.0, jQuery is no longer included but the rtd theme\'s search functionality needs it. The theme was changed to load sphinxcontrib-jquery automatically with https://github.com/readthedocs/sphinx_rtd_theme/pull/1399, but kiwi broke this fix by loading the theme in the wrong way. Now that the theme is loaded properly, the search functionality also works with newer versions of sphinx again and the version pinning can be lifted. This Fixes: #2462
* Wed Feb 14 2024 Fabian Vogt - Allow specifying the filesystem for live image, also direct squashfs Allow specifying the filesystem for live image, also direct squashfs By setting it\'s now possible to specify the filesystem used for live images. By using \"squashfs\", the rootfs container is skipped entirely.
* Wed Feb 14 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for reading .profile.extra in initrd If there is the file /.profile.extra available in the initrd, kiwi will import this additional environment file after the import of the standard /.profile file. This is related to bsc#1218095
* Wed Feb 14 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Don\'t run ci-kiwi-9-compliant action on forks
* Tue Feb 13 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix setup of UUID for btrfs When setting up the UUID for a btrfs filesystem via btrfstune it could happen that the call becomes interactive asking a question and give a recommendation. All this is unwanted and can be forced via the -f switch. This Fixes #2456
* Mon Feb 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Move OCI to context manager Change the OCI Factory to be a context manager. All code using OCI was updated to the following with statement: with OCI(...).new as oci: oci.some_member() This is related to Issue #2412
* Mon Feb 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop destructor from CommandProcess There is code that sends a SIGTERM to the process in case there is no error code information. I believe in this case sending SIGTERM will not kill the process (defunct) and I also don\'t see in what good condition we would be entering this state.
* Mon Feb 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed use of custom bootloader In case no bootloader implementation by kiwi should be used, users can specify the bootloader=\"custom\" attribute. Instead of skipping the bootloader stage in the builders it is better to consistently create an instance of bootloader but raise if a method of the bootloader interface is called for which the custom bootloader has no implementation. This commit adds the consistency bits.
* Mon Feb 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed scope of BootLoaderConfig instance Due to the refactor of BootLoaderConfig into context managers we had two instances of BootLoaderConfig. However, the first instance holds data the second instance needs which caused an issue. This commit makes sure there is one BootLoaderInstance within the lifetime of required services
* Mon Feb 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Allow integration test to build outside of obs too
* Mon Feb 12 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Follow up fix for drop obsolete C tools from kiwi The spec file make call to build the C code was forgotten to be deleted
* Sun Feb 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop obsolete C tools from kiwi For building custom initrd images kiwi provided some optional helper tools. All these C written tools are old and outdated and either not useful anymore or replaced by other tools that are part of the distribution matrix we support. Thus with the move to the next major release those can go away. This also include the package kiwi-tools which was used to provide them
* Wed Feb 07 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update documentation Several examples still pointed to Leap 15.3 repos, but we are at Leap 15.5. Thus this commit shifts towards Leap 15.5
* Mon Feb 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Remove destructor from BootLoaderInstallGrub2 With MountManager as context manager the BootLoaderInstallGrub2 class doesn\'t need a destructor anymore. This is related to Issue #2412
* Mon Feb 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Remove obsolete destructor from BootImageDracut With MountManager as context manager the BootImageDracut class doesn\'t need a destructor anymore. This is related to Issue #2412
* Mon Feb 05 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Move Raid Luks and Integrity to context manager Change the RaidDevice, LuksDevice and IntegrityDevice classes to context manager: with RaidDevice(...) as raid: raid.some_member() with LuksDevice(...) as luks: luks.some_member() with IntegrityDevice(...) as integrity: integrity.some_member() In the context of the disk builder an ExitStack is used to handle the new context manager based classes This is related to Issue #2412
* Fri Feb 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix error message regarding ovftool For ova support kiwi still uses the proprietary ovftool from VMware. The error message if the tool could not be found was broken and the link to the VMware page was also outdated.
* Fri Feb 02 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop PDF build of the documentation The kiwi.pdf file as provided in the kiwi-man-pages package was never really used by our users but comes with a huge dependency chain to LaTex. We provide the documentation online as well as converted to DocBook from where all other formats could be derived. Thus there is no need for us to produce an extra PDF document which is imho never consulted. In addition to this change also the contributing chapter has been reworked. Due to recent changes and drop of obsolete components from kiwi as well as the effort to move the development setup to poetry, there is only one non python tool needed for the development of kiwi. The check for this tool has been moved into the Makefile and all other checks formerly done in the helper/install_devel_packages script were deleted.
* Wed Jan 31 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix crypto LUKS integration test The integration test build also encrypts /boot which requires grub to open the LUKS pool using cryptomount. grub does not support the argonID salted password hashes. Thus the integration test description configures pbkdf2 instead
* Wed Jan 31 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Use ExitStack for MountManagers
* Wed Jan 31 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Only pass appropriate bootloader arguments When constructing a BootLoaderConfig instance only pass arguments appropriate to the selected bootloader.

This commit does the refactoring and is related to Issue #2412
* Tue Jan 16 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Follow up fix for drop of hybrid boot snippets The following is left over code from the drop of the hybrid boot templates.
* Tue Jan 16 2024 Neal Gompa - Drop hybrid boot snippets from the GRUB 2 configuration template Sometime between GRUB 2.04 and GRUB 2.06, it became no longer necessary to use \"linuxefi\"+\"initrdefi\" for UEFI boot. The standard \"linux\"+\"initrd\" stanzas work for both legacy BIOS boot and modern UEFI boot. Some distributions no longer support \"linuxefi\"+\"initrdefi\" at all anymore, so let\'s just use \"linux\"+\"initrd\" for everything now.
* Mon Jan 15 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Don\'t create default entry for sd-boot loader.conf
* Mon Jan 15 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Type cleanup, no use of Any type in disk builder Use proper Union declaration for system variable and add consistency layer into Filesystem/VolumeManager classes to meet the type declaration as well as to simplify further refactoring on these classes
* Sun Jan 14 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Compat entry name for kernel-install in sd-boot systemd-boot tools like kernel-install expect a certain entry naming policy. This commit adapts kiwi to adapt to this policy. The name for the default entry is constructed out of the ID information from /etc/os-release followed by the name of the kernel as it is represented by the directory name in /lib/modules/... This Fixes #2417

* Thu Jan 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update unit test data to schema v8.0
* Thu Jan 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Update major schema version from 7.6 -> 8.0 With the switch to schema v8.x we allow for non compatible changes in regards to the v7.x stream. Thus this commit also deletes the support for clicfs from the schema
* Thu Jan 11 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Drop clicfs support clicfs was a fuse userspace implementation of an overlay filesystem. Since overlayfs became the default overlay filesystem there is no reason for kiwi to keep the clicfs support
* Wed Jan 10 2024 Dan Čermák - Use obsrepositories for the CentOS 9 image We were relying on the repos being parsed from the kiwi description but this can cause problems and gives us less flexibility when it comes to fixing repository setup issues.

* Tue Jan 09 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed regression in GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND setup The condition to write the serial line setup was broken. This commit fixes it. Related to Issue #2419
* Mon Jan 08 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed grub terminal setup The grub terminal setup is divided into the setting for the output and the input console. For both settings different parameters exists. So far kiwi did not differentiate between the two parts of the console setup and that could lead to a wrong setting if only one value is provided in kiwi\'s console= attribute which lead to the grub setting, GRUB_TERMINAL=value. If value is set to e.g gfxterm grub takes this for both input and output and it\'s obviously wrong for the input. To make this less error prune the kiwi code changes with this commit to set GRUB_TERMINAL_INPUT and GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT rather than GRUB_TERMINAL and also runs sanity checks on the provided values if they are applicable. The information for setting up the console in the schema stays untouched though. That\'s because it\'s used for all bootloaders and also because grub supports multiple values for the console in/out setting in one GRUB_TERMINAL variable even though kiwi does no longer use it. To make this clear for the users also the documentation for the console attribute setup has been updated. If we want to wish two distinct attributes for input and output console settings a schema change and also differentiation between bootloaders is needed and that I only see for the kiwi-10 branch if at all. This Fixes #2419
* Thu Jan 04 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix tox.ini python 3.12 unit target did not specify a 3.12 interpreter
* Thu Jan 04 2024 Marcus Schäfer - Fix overwrite of kiwi_oemunattended In case rd.kiwi.oem.installdevice is set, there is an overwrite of the kiwi_oemunattended setting. However the variable was set in local scope of a function and therefore the change was not effective in other methods which also evaluates this variable. This commit fixes it such that the overwrite happens in the early initialize method which provides the environment for all code running in the dracut module. This is related to jira#PED-7180
* Sat Dec 30 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Move LoopDevice class to context manager Change the LoopDevice class to be a context manager. All code using LoopDevice was updated to the following with statement: with LoopDevice(...) as loop_provider: loop_provider.some_member() This is related to Issue #2412
* Fri Dec 29 2023 Neal Gompa - Ensure setfiles is detected inside the image-root We do not actually use setfiles from the host, we use it from the image root we create for the image build. Thus, we should look in the image root instead of on the host system. This prevents us from incorrectly detecting that setfiles is not available for setting SELinux contexts. Fixes: https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/issues/2414 Fixes: 2a22901ddd11ae23b6724b5e1aaa4261f219ccb6

* Sun Dec 17 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed unit tests for parallel invokation
* Fri Dec 15 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Make sure selinux policy is effectively applied setup_selinux_file_contexts is now called after the config.sh script. This makes sure that eventual policy related changes done in the optional config.sh are covered by a late setfiles call. In addition setup_selinux_file_contexts is called again at the end of any chroot based script hook. So we assume that any optional script target can change the system in a way that a new setfiles call might be required. It can happen that setfiles is called more often than required but as we cannot know what custom scripts does, it\'s better to call it more often compared to not often enough. This Fixes bsc#1210604
* Thu Dec 14 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Decrease image size for encrypted integration test Encrypted images do not compress well, therefore the size should be smaller such that we don\'t produce monsters

This overwrites any other oem device setting, e.g device filter or maxdisk and just continues the installation on the given device. However, the device must exist and must be a block special. This Fixes jira#PED-7180
* Tue Nov 21 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Update mailmap
* Fri Nov 10 2023 Kali - Replace the regex-based loader entry fix with string parsing (#2388) A user building RHEL images ran into issues with the initrd. It turns out that RHEL uses some patches that mean the initrd/linux files in RHEL are not installed to /boot, which trips up the original regex. The new fix doesn\'t rely on matching the path in boot, instead just finding the initrd/linux files and rewriting them in place. This change also adds the pre-and-post fix loader entries to the debug logs. Reference: https://bugzilla.suse.com/1208701 Fixes suse bsc#1208701
* Fri Nov 10 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fix mbrid setup for read-only systems On filesystems without a UUID (e.g squashfs) the fallback boot id setup should apply if neither UUID nor MBR ID is present. This is a followup fix for Issue #2391

* Thu Nov 09 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Don\'t make toml a requirement
* Wed Nov 08 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed grub mbrid file search To identify the root device for ISO images (live and install media) that boots via grub2, kiwi uses a grub2 --file search. The searched file was named /boot/mbrid, however this is not a unique name and could be found on other devices of the system as well. To connect the search to the correct media this commit changes the search to an ID based method which is unique to the image build process. This Fixes #2389
* Wed Nov 08 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Don\'t use kernel-install kernel-install does a lot more then making the kernel available to the ESP. It calls dracut, it creates loader entries and all that is unexpected and also breaks the boot because the way dracut is called in the image build case where host != target leads to broken results. This commit refactors the systemd-boot support in kiwi to prevent the use of kernel-install
* Wed Nov 08 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Add check_efi_fat_image_has_correct_size Add runtime check for to check that the efifatimagesize does not exceed the max El Torito load size
* Tue Nov 07 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for ISO boot via systemd-boot Create proper EFI FAT image via bootctl to be used as alt loader in xorriso. This allows to boot the ISO via EFI e.g kvm -bios /usr/share/qemu/ovmf-x86_64.bin -cdrom file.iso Please note, hybrid boot is done via grub\'s hybrid MBR and as systemd-boot does not provide one, hybrid boot is out of scope yet. This Fixes #2281
* Sun Nov 05 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.25.17 → 9.25.18
* Wed Nov 01 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Add partx to module-setup of kiwi-lib too
* Fri Oct 27 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Change partprobe fallback to partx Informing the kernel about a new partition geometry can be done in a busy state and is also effective for new devices and new mounts based on the new geometry. busy state mounts of course will not see it until swap of the busy state but a complete refuse of operation like it happens with blockdev is imho not required. Just as partprobe, partx is less restrictive on the busy state. That\'s why this commit changes the partprobe fallback to use partx instead of blockdev
* Thu Oct 26 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Create live persistent storage without busy state With the former logic the live ISO was already mounted when an eventual persistent storage partition was created. This leads to an issue on re-reading the partition table, not for all but several tools. This commit changes the order of tasks such that the setup of the persistent write storage is performed prior mounting the live ISO. In addition to this change an alternative method using blockdev to re-read the partition was added in case partprobe is not present. This also allows to get rid of the parted dependency which provides partprobe

* Wed Sep 13 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed root entry in fstab for btrfs layout A root (/) entry in fstab for btrfs is only required if no default volume is configured. This commit adapts the code path which adds an fstab entry for (/) to be effective only if btrfs_set_default_volume is set to false. Additionally, the documentation around btrfs_set_default_volume was clarified to describe the behavior the switch triggers. This Fixes #2366
* Wed Sep 13 2023 David Cassany Viladomat - Remove community repository from Arch images Community repository is no longer needed for the test image.

* Tue Aug 15 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Add kiwi_live_volid variable to profile As part of the profile environment only the kiwi_install_volid variable existed with the default value \'INSTALL\'. This information is correct when building an oem image with installiso set to true. The resulting .install.iso image has the configured volid or the mentioned default \'INSTALL\'. However, when building a live ISO image the default volid value is set to \'CDROM\' but the profile environment contains kiwi_install_volid which is misleading and in case no volid is provided in the configuration file, the default value would also be a wrong information. This commit cleans up the mess and provides kiwi_install_volid for install ISO media and kiwi_live_volid for Live ISO media with their respective default values
* Tue Aug 15 2023 Tom Schraitle - Add some hints about KIWI extensions and dependencies for SLE (#2348) SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) has KIWI as a package.

* Wed Aug 09 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fix double grub entries in hybrid ISO images As consequence of using the \"source\" grub command instead of the \"configfile\" command to load the grub config we now see double loading of the same file on ISO media. The reason here is that kiwi ISO media is always hybrid which means it embeds an MBR into the ISO for which the \"source\" command now can read the same file through two different device paths. This does not happen with the \"configfile\" grub command. Thus this patch uses \"configfile\" if we produce an ISO image and \"source\" for all other image types. The commit also fixes the custom grub template used for ISO images in a way that we only set the \"serial\" command if there is a serial configuration provided along with the image description.

* Thu Jul 27 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Make sure btrfs root volume is used when needed With the possibility to switch off setting the default volume an issue at other parts in the kiwi code which mounted the btrfs based system were uncovered. Without any default volume set it\'s required to transport the root volume if different from / and pass the respective subvol= option to the mount. This commit fixes it at the places where kiwi trusted btrfs to have a correct default volume set
* Thu Jul 27 2023 Marcus Schäfer - update Fedora integration test The setting of a default volume is unwanted here
* Thu Jul 27 2023 Marcus Schäfer - add btrfs_set_default_volume attribute By default kiwi runs btrfs set-default on the volume that is considered the default volume according to the btrfs settings and defaults. btrfs_set_default_volume=\"false\" allows to deactivate this action. Along with the change also the misleading name of the btrfs_create_toplevel_subvolume has been changed to root_is_subvolume

* Mon Jul 24 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Added py3.11 tox target
* Mon Jul 24 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed writing correct keyfile path to etc/crypttab The keyfile path was not correctly set in etc/crypttab which caused systemd not being able to read the keyfile, consequently asking for a passphrase. This commit fixes the writing of the crypttab and also fixes a python name clash with the \"os\" namespace.

* Thu Jul 20 2023 Paul Gardiner - Fix failure when booting KIS via NBD In the NBD booting case, the function initGlobalDevices in kiwi-overlay-root.sh runs the command ndb-client to connect the remote NBD share to the device /dev/nbd0. The script parse-kiwi-overlay.sh, on the other hand, incorrectly parses overlay:nbd=ip:export to /dev/ip/export, leading to the system waiting for /dev/ip/export to appear. This commit corrects the problem. With this change NDB booting of KIS images now succeeds, although only if the ndb package is added to the appliance description.
* Wed Jul 19 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Use bootpartition for Fedora integration test When using btrfs with the proposed layout for testing the delivered grub bios module for the Fedora system used to build the integration test (FC37) is not capable to find the grub config file. A manual call for configfile in the grub shell fixes this with the existing kiwi created grub early-boot script. However, it is expected that the delivered grub image works and kiwi only creates its own one if no distro delivered grub image was found. To make the integration test functional for both BIOS and EFI the simple solution is to use an extra not btrfs based boot partition. This still allows to test the desired btrfs layout in terms of volumes and sub-volumes and does not break on any of the boot methods.
* Wed Jul 19 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed apply_attributes_on_volume Make the function call more robust in terms of path separation

* Sun Jul 16 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Add btrfs_create_toplevel_subvolume attribute Allow to explicitly select if a toplevel subvolume should be created or not. To avoid a behavior change, kiwi will create a toplevel based btrfs structure if this attribute is not specified. However, a deprecation message to inform about future behavior change will be printed. This is related to Issue #2316
* Wed Jul 12 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Evaluate the AATTroot volume name also for btrfs In a volume setup the special volume declaration was only evaluated for the LVM volume manager. In case of btrfs a hardcoded root volume name \'AATT\' was used. This commit allows to specify a custom name for the root volume for btrfs as well and also allows to specify that there should be no such root volume. Example: Name the root volume \'AATT\'. If not specified this stays as the default to stay compatible Indicate no root volume is wanted. All subvolumes resides below root (/) Name the root volume \'foo\' This is related to Issue #2316 and a first patch to address the requested changes

This commit uses isoschematron on demand. If present on the system it gets loaded and used, if not a warning that the schematron validation will be skipped is provided. This Fixes #2314
* Sat Jul 08 2023 slowpeek - Improve loopback.cfg example submenu+source should be preferred over menuentry+configfile: - submenu creates a new context, menuentry does not. As a result, changes made to vars inside menuentry\'s braces pollute the current scope. In this particular case what is notably wrong is root=loop happens in the current scope. If we activate the \"Boot from openSUSE ISO\" menu entry and then press Esc to return back to explore other menu entries, $root would still be set to \'loop\'. Instead of manually saving and restoring $root value it is better to wrap the whole thing in a new context with submenu - configfile is not just \'source in a new context\', it has as least one side effect. For details look for grub_err_printed_errors usage in [1] and [2] in grub sources [1] grub-core/normal/menu.c [2] grub-core/normal/menu_entry.c

* Wed Jul 05 2023 Olaf Kirch - Add improvements for fully encrypted disk images This commit adds more flexibility when using LUKS encrypted images. In addition support for key derivation on user provided passwords has been added. The following new attributes were added to the schema: type.luks_randomize allow to enable/disable the data randomizing if luks encryption is used type.luks_pbkdf When LUKS unlocks a key slot using a user provided password, it uses a so-called key derivation function to derive a symmetric encryption key from the password. Not all boot loaders support all KDF algorithms, hence this attribute can be used to select a specific algorithm bootloader.use_disk_password When /boot is encrypted, make the boot loader store the password in its configuration file (in cleartext). This is useful for full disk encryption images Signed-off-by: Olaf Kirch
* Wed Jul 05 2023 Olaf Kirch - Change location of LUKS keyfile to /root/.root.keyfile In some configuration (eg on a transactional system), the root file system is read-only, which means we will not be able to remove the stale .root.keyfile after firstboot. This patch changes the location of the keyfile and places it in /root/.root.keyfile instead, because root\'s home directory is much more likely to be read/write. Also fixed the associated unit test (thanks to schaefi). Signed-off-by: Olaf Kirch
* Tue Jul 04 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Add alternative re-reading of the partition table To inform the kernel about disk geometry changes, kiwi uses partprobe as a primary tool. However it is provided by parted and not necessarily available due to the package requirements on the dracut module. A second attempt via blockdev which is expected to exist is therefore made by this commit
* Tue Jul 04 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Refactor the luks_device class data transport Also add missing unit tests

* Wed Jun 14 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed image install of dnf package manager If the package manager is set to \'dnf4\', this name is taken also as package name to install this package manager into the image. Problem is \'dnf4\' is not a valid package name. The correct name for \'dnf4\' is \'dnf\'. This commit fixes the name bug introduced with the changes for Issue #2262

* Mon May 29 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Change package manager dnf to dnf4 With dnf5 there is a successor for dnf but there will also be a transition period where there will be both, the former dnf and the new dnf5 available. For a clear distinction between the two we got the recommendation from the RedHat team to support both in different namespaces. This commit now implements a backward compatible change for kiwi which includes the following modifications:
* XSL stylesheet for automatic schema transformation from dnf to dnf4
* Code copy of dnf API interface from PackageManagerDnf -> PackageManagerDnf4 RepositoryDnf -> RepositoryDnf4
* Deprecation of former Dnf API interface The code change here will force developers to adapt their code if they used RepositoryDnf / PackageManagerDnf classes in their python code. After this change developers will be dropped into a raise condition which exits kiwi at the time of the call. Related to Issue #2300 and Issue #2262
* Thu May 25 2023 Hans-Peter Jansen - Documentation: clearify dnf based collection selectors With 89b5a6f5269, the selection of collections was changed to allow group IDs only for dnf based package installers.
* Thu May 25 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Update rawhide integration tests Use dnf5 for rawhide. It\'s hard to differentiate between old and new dnf version on Fedora Rawhide. Thus let\'s make the move to dnf5. Since microdnf is also wrapped into dnf5 the integration test for microdnf got renamed to dnf5
* Wed May 24 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Add support for dnf5 package manager dnf5 is the next generation of the dnf package manager. dnf5 is not a drop in replacement to dnf which is the reason why this commit adds a new interface class for package and repository management under a new name: dnf5. Beginning with Fedora >= 39 dnf5 will be the standard. Thus the requirements on the packaging level were adapted too. This Fixes #2300 This Fixes #2262
* Wed May 24 2023 Isaac True - dracut: modules.d: 90kiwi-overlay: add support for device mapper targets Allow specifying a device mapper target for the root of the overlayfs. This adds support for features like adding a dm-verity or dm-crypt backend to the overlayfs. A device mapper target can be specified using the following syntax on the kernel command line: root=overlay:MAPPER=verityRoot This translates to using the path `/dev/mapper/verityRoot` as the base of the overlayfs.

* Tue May 23 2023 Isaac True - dracut: modules.d: 99kiwi-lib: add bash shebangs and dependency The scripts in the kiwi-lib module use bash-specific syntax like `function`, which causes the script to fail if another shell (like dash or busybox) is used to interpret the scripts. Specifically set the shebang to use bash as the shell interpreter and add bash as a dependency to the dracut module to fix this. This resolves the following errors which are printed at boot when busybox tries to interpret the scripts: /bin/dracut-pre-mount: 3: /lib/kiwi-filesystem-lib.sh: function: not found /bin/dracut-pre-mount: 15: /lib/kiwi-filesystem-lib.sh: Syntax error: \"}\" unexpected Signed-off-by: Isaac True

If no extra bootloader installation is required this allows to boot from a squashfs rootfs without extra boot partition. The prebuilt grub images usually does not contain the squash4 module which is the reason why kiwi creates the EFI module itself if the system is fully immutable. Please note; the grub configuration must be provided manually as part of the image description in this case because grub-mkconfig at the time it has to be called has no write permissions anymore.

This is a concept which barely works and should be refactored in a way that the root= information always points to the root device and that an eventually existing write location is explicitly provided via the existing rd.root.overlay.write parameter which is allowed to be overwritten for providing an alternative write location. Making this information consistent and explicit on the kernel commandline simplifies the dracut code to consume this information correctly. This Fixes #2251

Based on the delta root tree the subsequent image creation process starts. Such an incomplete root tree is only useful under certain circumstances which is also the reason why the feature is only available to the oci and docker image types.

* Thu Jan 05 2023 Marcus Schäfer - Allow to specify fixed size for the root partition So far the last partition (typically root) in the partition table takes all the rest space of the partition table in the image file. At deployment/boot time users had several options to let that partition grow to a custom size. However, during build time of the image it was not possible to specify a specific fixed size for the root partition as we don\'t wanted to produce gaps of unpartitioned space in the image file. It has turned out that there is hardware available which requires a partition to be an exact multiple of some blocksize. As kiwi supports size constraints for all other partitions but not for root this commit now allows for it. The oem-systemsize element is now also taken into account at build time of the image if the oem-resize which would do that at deployment/boot time is switched off like the following example shows: ```xml 2048 false ``` This Fixes #2203

The information is used to specify custom arguments for the tools called in a bootloader setup procedure, e.g shim-install, grub-install or grub-mkconfig. kiwi does not judge on the given parameters and if the provided data is effectively used depends on the individual bootloader implementation. In this commit the data will be effectively handled if bootloader=\"grub2\" is configured. More precisely the custom additions to support SUSE\'s TPM model with grub2 can be configured as follows: This Fixes #2224
* Tue Dec 20 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Stick with tox v3.28.0 for unit testing tox >= 3.0.15 together with virtualenv >= 20.17.1 raises strange incompatibilities and prevents the unit test run because tox calls virtualenv in a wrong way leading to strange error messages like: - -- usage: virtualenv ... virtualenv: error: argument dest: destination \'{check,devel,packagedoc,doc,doc_gh_pages,doc_suse,doc_man,scripts,}: /home/runner/work/kiwi/kiwi/.tox/3\
/home/runner/work/kiwi/kiwi/.tox/3.8\' must not contain the path separator (:) as this would break the activation scripts - -- All this doesn\'t make sense to me at all and worked without any issues before.
* Tue Dec 20 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.55 → 9.24.56
* Tue Dec 20 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fix gh-pages publish
* Sun Dec 18 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed systemd boot integration test for rawhide systemd-boot was splitted in preparation for secure boot. The unsigned version of the EFI binary is used in the test so far
* Sun Dec 18 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Added device mapper setting for s390 on TW Use kpartx as partx fails
* Sun Dec 18 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Added device mapper setting for s390 Use kpartx as partx fails
* Sun Dec 18 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.54 → 9.24.55
* Wed Dec 14 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Allow to pass credentials as file reference
* Tue Dec 13 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed handling of container archive compression In kiwi we support handling of the container archive compression via a runtime configuration setting of the following form, eg in /etc/kiwi.yml ```yaml container: [#] Specify compression for container images [#] Possible values are true, false, xz or none. - compress: true ``` However, this setting was only taken into account in the kiwi bundler. Meaning if the user calls \'kiwi result bundle ...\' after the container image has been created the result bundler will take the compression setting into account. From my perspective this behavior is misleading and also prevents users from creating compressed container archives without a subsequent result bundler call. Therefore this commit moves the place to handle the compression setting into the container classes. The bundler code for containers will no longer operate on it and just takes what it gets, which can be either compressed or not. The default setting was \"No compression\" and this was not changed. This Fixes #2217
* Tue Dec 13 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Add type hints for OCI and APPX classes
* Sun Dec 11 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.53 → 9.24.54
* Sun Dec 11 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fix publish to pypi bind gh-action module to v1 release
* Sun Dec 11 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.52 → 9.24.53
* Sat Dec 10 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Use ubuntu-20.04 as github hosted runner It seems on ubuntu-latest no python 3.6 is available anymore
* Sat Dec 10 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Allow external commands in tox targets
* Fri Dec 09 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fix unit test run for BLS spec base class Do not really call blkid as used in get_boot_cmdline
* Fri Dec 09 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed typo in documentation Capitalize at the start of a sentence. This Fixes #2216
* Fri Dec 02 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fix unit tests to run in parallel Setting sys.argv and global variables impacts tests such that they cannot run in parallel. The little footprint of excluding the --config global args test from the coverage is beneficial to allow parallel test runs
* Fri Dec 02 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Don\'t show secret parts of an URI Using URIs of the form uri://user:passAATTlocation should not be logged or printed including its credential data
* Fri Dec 02 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Don\'t use split on potential None value
* Thu Dec 01 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Allow to select partition mapper tool The recent change from kpartx to partx caused some appliance builds to break depending on their configuration. I spotted issues when building disks with veritysetup or integritysetup root devices. There are also issues with grub-install on other architectures e.g s390. It seems partx cannot be used as a drop in replacement and so I suggest to make this a runtime configuration option with partx as the new default but also allow for the old method
* Thu Dec 01 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.51 → 9.24.52
* Wed Nov 30 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fix status indicator in helper/build_status.sh colored output only worked for toplevel results
* Wed Nov 30 2022 Neal Gompa - Eliminate redundant partx calls for cleaning up loop devices partx can clean up all partition loops associated with a loop device when deleting the main loop device. Apparently, sometimes it goes and does this even when only deleting the partition loop, so to avoid this problem, we will just eliminate the redundant call. Fixes: 8f2b8fda82a37d7a7ebbf8a6557870cc63b0ae91
* Wed Nov 30 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Support repo URI\'s with credentials on cmdline Specifying a repository as part of the image description allows for credentials via the username and password attributes. Howver, repositories can also be specified on the commandline via the --set-repo / --add-repo options. The options on the commandline did not allow to specify credentials so far. This commit adds the commandline options --set-repo-credentials and --add-repo-credentials to support them
* Wed Nov 30 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Update test-image-vagrant virtualbox-guest-x11 seems to be deleted from TW
* Wed Nov 30 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed test-image-custom-partitions The test was done prior kiwi added the partitions element and demonstrates how to influence the partition table via scripts. These scripts uses kpartx and the device mapper. Due to the recent change from kpartx to partx the scripts must be adapted
* Tue Nov 29 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.50 → 9.24.51
* Tue Nov 29 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Added code style batch to landing page
* Tue Nov 29 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Delete obsolete gitlab pipeline status flag Delete obsolete gitlab pipeline status from the project landing page. We do no longer use gitlab since they added that quota thing for their CI system
* Tue Nov 29 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.49 → 9.24.50
* Tue Nov 29 2022 Neal Gompa - Swap from DM kpartx to util-linux partx for creating loop devices The device-mapper (DM) based loop devices that kiwi has historically generated creates issues when trying to run kiwi in confined build environments. The DM tools prefer to have a tighter coupling between userspace and kernel interfaces, and we cannot necessarily guarantee that in the variety of build environments that kiwi can be run in. In particular, Koji uses either nspawn containers or chroots through Mock to run kiwi and that is where this fails. However, we do not need to use DM for this purpose when util-linux provides a perfectly serviceable alternative. This commit changes kiwi\'s loop device setup to use partx(8) from util-linux instead. As long as the appliance image being created doesn\'t use a disk scheme that requires DM, it becomes entirely possible to produce an image without needing DM at runtime at all.
* Tue Nov 29 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Added systemd_boot integration test for Rawhide
* Mon Nov 21 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Increase btrfs size of orthos integration test
* Mon Nov 14 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Increase scope of kernel lookup So far kiwi was looking up kernels only on /boot. Including other bootloaders it\'s no longer required that the kernel packages of the distributions provides the kernel in /boot Thus kiwi\'s lookup needs to be extended to other places which is done by this commit.
* Sat Nov 12 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Add GRUB_DEFAULT=saved if not set If there is no GRUB_DEFAULT setting in etc/default/grub we add GRUB_DEFAULT=saved as the default setting. This Fixes #2198
* Sat Nov 12 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Disable gitlab CI pipeline Unfortunately gitlab decided to allow only eligible projects to use their CI pipeline. Being a member for years seems not to count in this change process. Therefore this commit disables the tests we run on gitlab and I will come up with a simple github action for the parts that we don\'t want to loose.
* Fri Nov 11 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Added integration test for systemd_boot The test build is based on the Tumbleweed distribution and provides a simple non-secure-boot systemd-boot virtual disk image
* Tue Nov 08 2022 Marcus Schäfer - no_implicit_optional = False
* Thu Nov 03 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Added --loglevel option specify logging level as number. Details about the available log levels can be found at: https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html#logging-levels Setting a log level causes all message >= level to be displayed.
* Wed Nov 02 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Consolidate and cleanup logging Make sure all loggers; stream handlers, file and socket handler uses the same logging format. Also make sure that there is only one place for setLogLevel when kiwi is used as application
* Sat Oct 29 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Added support for --logsocket Like with --logfile this commit adds support for using an existing Unix Domain Socket for logging. It\'s required that there is a listener on the given socket otherwise kiwi exits with an appropriate error message from the socket layer. A simple listener could look like the following: ```python sock_file = \'/tmp/log_socket\' buffer = 1024 if os.path.exists(sock_file): os.unlink(sock_file) sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_UNIX, socket.SOCK_STREAM) sock.bind(sock_file) sock.listen(1) while True: connection, client_address = sock.accept() try: while True: data = connection.recv(buffer) if not data: break print(data.decode()) finally: connection.close() ``` With the listener in place kiwi can be called as follows: kiwi-ng --logsocket /tmp/log_socket ...
* Sat Oct 22 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Bump version: 9.24.48 → 9.24.49
* Sat Oct 22 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Fixed test-image-vagrant virtualbox-guest-tools obsoletes virtualbox-guest-x11
* Fri Oct 21 2022 Marcus Schäfer - ignore the type check on the Result class With an update of mypy the bound TypeVar is no longer allowed. In newer versions of python we could use the \"Self\" type or import annotations from the future module. Unfortunately in older python versions which we still support (3.6) there is no non intrusive change which allows us to handle that type annotation. Thus this commit ignores the return type spec for Result.load() for the moment.
* Wed Oct 12 2022 Igor Raits - Stop copying /dev files statically into the OCI container In containers (nspawn) where part of the /dev filesystem is bind-mounted from outside system, kiwi fails to do the rsync (in creation of the nodes). There is no reason to actually copy whole tree inside so let\'s just not do it (as it does not seem to be needed at all).
* Tue Oct 11 2022 Dirk Müller - List riscv64 as a valid architecture in the schemas This is needed so that architecture filters on riscv64 specifics can be defined.
* Wed Sep 14 2022 Marcus Schäfer - Support DM integrity legacy options Add a new attribute integrity_legacy_hmac=\"true|false\" which allows to use old flawed HMAC calculation (does not protect superblock). Add a new attribute integrity_legacy_padding=\"true|false\" which allows to use inefficient legacy padding. Do not use these attributes until compatibility with a specific old kernel is required!
