Now that installing Grub on raw disk-images is supported, we do not need to
rely on (gnu system vm) module.
* gnu/system/image.scm (make-system-image): Rename to ...
(system-image): ... this, and remove the compatibility wrapper.
(find-image): Turn to a monadic procedure. This will become useful when
introducing Hurd support, to be able to detect the target system.
* gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Use lower-object now that system-image returns a
file-like object.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Add a 'base-image'
argument,
(perform-action): adapt accordingly.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (strip-mount-point): Remove procedure.
(normalize-file): Add procedure.
(grub-configuration-file): New BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME parameter. When
defined, prepend its value to the kernel and initrd file names, using the
NORMALIZE-FILE procedure. Adjust the call to EYE-CANDY to pass the
BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME argument. Normalize the KEYMAP file as well.
(eye-candy): Add a BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME parameter, and use it, along with
the NORMALIZE-FILE procedure, to normalize the FONT-FILE and IMAGE nested
variables. Adjust doc.
* gnu/bootloader/depthcharge.scm (depthcharge-configuration-file): Adapt.
* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (extlinux-configuration-file): Likewise.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (btrfs-subvolume?)
(btrfs-store-subvolume-file-name): New procedures.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-bootcfg): Specify the Btrfs
subvolume file name the store resides on to the
`operating-system-bootcfg' procedure, using the new
BTRFS-SUBVOLUME-FILE-NAME argument.
* doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Add a Btrfs subsection to document the use of
subvolumes.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os)
(%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os-source)
(%btrfs-root-on-subvolume-installation-script)
(%test-btrfs-root-on-subvolume-os): New variables.
Raw disk-images and ISO9660 images are created in a Qemu virtual machine. This
is quite fragile, very slow, and almost unusable without KVM.
For all these reasons, add support for host image generation. This implies the
use new image generation mechanisms.
- Raw disk images: images of partitions are created using tools such as mke2fs
and mkdosfs depending on the partition file-system type. The partition
images are then assembled into a final image using genimage.
- ISO9660 images: the ISO root directory is populated within the store. GNU
xorriso is then called on that directory, in the exact same way as this is
done in (gnu build vm) module.
Those mechanisms are built upon the new (gnu image) module.
* gnu/image.scm: New file.
* gnu/system/image.scm: New file.
* gnu/build/image: New file.
* gnu/local.mk: Add them.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image): Rename to system-disk-image-in-vm.
* gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Adapt to new API.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Ditto.
This is a follow-up of a860eddbbd. Guided
installation tests are now run from an ISO image. Hence the main block device
is vda and not vdb anymore.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (installation-target-os-for-gui-tests): Use
%minimal-os-on-vda instead of %minimal-os.
(%minimal-os-on-vda): Make sure that it replicates the config of %minimal-os.
This is a follow-up of a860eddbbd. If using an
ISO, the main disk is vda and not vdb anymore.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (installation-target-os-for-gui-tests): Use vda2 as
swap partition.
It seems that 'guix system init' is consuming more than the 800M of RAM
currently allocated. Until this is understood, bump the limit to 1.2G.
Reported here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guix/2020-04/msg00519.html
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Bump RAM to 1.2G.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (gui-test-program): Add a desktop? argument, and pass it to choose-services,
(installation-target-os-for-gui-tests): new procedure,
(installation-target-desktop-os-for-gui-tests): new procedure,
(guided-installation-test): add target-os and desktop? arguments. Use
target-os instead of the previous os variable. Pass desktop? argument to
gui-test-program.
(%test-gui-installed-os): Adapt accordingly,
(%test-gui-installed-os-encrypted): ditto,
(%test-gui-installed-desktop-os-encrypted): new exported variable.
When marionette-eval calls fail in gui-test-program, the installation
continues which results in two scenarios:
- hang forever at the next marionette-eval call,
- keep going and start a broken installation, which is annoying because it
clears the terminal and hides the error.
Make sure that gui-test-program is exited with #f return code when one of the
marionette-eval calls fail.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (gui-test-program): Add a new macro
"marionette-eval*". Throw an exception when one on the marionette-eval calls
fail.

Previously we'd error out if the installation script exits with
non-zero, which was the case because the 'reboot' program would
typically not get a reply, and thus would eventually be killed by PID 1
as the system is brought down.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install)[install]: Expect SCRIPT to exit
with SIGTERM in addition to exiting with zero.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%test-gui-installed-os-encrypted): New variable,
(guided-installation-test): set a swap-device only if there is no encryption.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/38086>.
Thanks to Vagrant and Tobias!
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%raid-root-os)[initrd-modules]: Add "raid1"
instead of "raid0".
(%raid-root-installation-script): Make the partitions twice as big.
Invoke 'mdadm' with '--level=mirror' instead of '--level=stripe';
connect "yes" to its stdin.
(%test-raid-root-os): Set #:target-size to 2.8 GiB.
1.2G had become slightly too small on x86_64.
This is a followup to 8dfb0c969e.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%simple-installation-script)
(%extlinux-gpt-installation-script)
(%simple-installation-script-for-/dev/vda): Switch from 1.2G to 1.4G.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%separate-store-installation-script): Increase
size of the root partition so that it's big enough to contain
downloaded nars and temporary files. Add 'df -h /mnt/gnu'.
The system closure has grown slightly above 1GiB so adjust accordingly.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%simple-installation-script): Increase vdb2 size of
1.2G,
(%extlinux-gpt-installation-script); ditto
(%simple-installation-script-for-/dev/vda): ditto,
(%separate-store-installation-script): ditto for vdb3,
(%encrypted-root-installation-script): ditto.
* gnu/system.scm (<operating-system>)[initrd-modules]: New field.
(operating-system-initrd-file): Pass #:linux-modules to 'make-initrd'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (default-initrd-modules): New procedure.
(%base-initrd-modules): New macro.
(base-initrd): Add #:linux-modules and honor it.
* gnu/system/install.scm (embedded-installation-os): Use
'initrd-modules' instead of 'initrd'.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%raid-root-os): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi (operating-system Reference): Add 'initrd-modules'.
(Initial RAM Disk): Document it. Adjust example to not use
#:extra-modules.
1200 MiB are too small for a btrfs-root-os, thus let increase it.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Increase target-size to 2200 MiB.
(%btrfs-root-installation-script): Increase my-root partition size to 2G.
1500 MiB are too small for a current system, thus let
system-disk-image estimate the required size.
* gnu/tests/install.scm: (run-install): Pass "#:disk-image-size
'guess" to system-disk-image.

Fixes a regression introduced in
4e854b1814.

* gnu/tests/install.scm (operating-system-with-gc-roots): Use
'simple-service' to extend GC-ROOT-SERVICE-TYPE instead of instantiating
it.
Fixes a regression introduced in fbc7b1f125.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install)[install]: Don't use 'file-append'
with a string as its first argument; use a gexp with 'string-append' instead.
Use a gexp instead of a list for "-cdrom IMG".
* gnu/tests/install.scm (%test-iso-image-installer): New variable.
(run-install): Add #:installation-disk-image-file-system-type as a keyword
argument.
* gnu/bootloader.scm (<bootloader-configuration>): Deprecate "device" field in
favor of "target" field. This is mostly a renaming but also a generalization
to support UEFI targets being paths to a mounted partition instead of a device
name.
