Move the cow-store procedure from the service declaration in (gnu system
install) to (gnu build install), so that it can be called from within a
different context than Shepherd.
* gnu/build/install.scm (mount-cow-store, unmount-cow-store): New procedures.
* gnu/system/install.scm (make-cow-store): Remove it,
(cow-store-service-type): adapt it accordingly.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (%options): Add `--label'.
(system-derivation-for-action): Take a #:label key to set volume ID.
(perform-action): Take a #:label key.
(%default-options): Add default label value.
(process-action): Pass label value from command-line to perform-action.
* gnu/system/image.scm (image-with-label): New procedure.
Only use the current glibc, as adding glibc-2.29 for compatibility adds
~100MiB to the barebones system closure.
* gnu/system/locale.scm (%default-locale-libcs): Remove glibc-2.29.
Image files can be very large (multiple gigabytes), and the process of
generating them is primarily I/O bound. As disk access is typically faster
than network access, it makes sense build them locally.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Pass the #:local-build? #t
parameter to computed-file calls dealing with generating image files.
(system-iso9660-image): Likewise.
This is a follow-up of 755f365b02.
As (zlib) is autoloaded in (gnu build linux-modules), "guile-zlib" is needed
as an extension only when it is effectively used.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Remove "guile-zlib" from the extensions.
* gnu/machine/ssh.scm (machine-check-initrd-modules): Ditto.
* gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Ditto.
* gnu/services/base.scm (default-serial-port): Ditto,
(agetty-shepherd-service): ditto,
(udev-service-type): ditto.
* gnu/system/image.scm (gcrypt-sqlite3&co): Ditto.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-shepherd-service): Ditto.
This commit adds support for GZIP compression for linux-libre kernel
modules. The initrd modules are kept uncompressed as the initrd is already
compressed as a whole.
The linux-libre kernel also supports XZ compression, but as Guix does not have
any available bindings for now, and the compression time is far more
significant, GZIP seems to be a better option.
* gnu/build/linux-modules.scm (modinfo-section-contents): Use
'call-with-gzip-input-port' to read from a module file using '.gz' extension,
(strip-extension): new procedure,
(dot-ko): adapt to support compression,
(ensure-dot-ko): ditto,
(file-name->module-name): ditto,
(find-module-file): ditto,
(load-linux-module*): ditto,
(module-name->file-name/guess): ditto,
(module-name-lookup): ditto,
(write-module-name-database): ditto,
(write-module-alias-database): ditto,
(write-module-device-database): ditto.
* gnu/installer.scm (installer-program): Add "guile-zlib" to the extensions.
* gnu/machine/ssh.scm (machine-check-initrd-modules): Ditto.
* gnu/services.scm (activation-script): Ditto.
* gnu/services/base.scm (default-serial-port): Ditto,
(agetty-shepherd-service): ditto,
(udev-service-type): ditto.
* gnu/system/image.scm (gcrypt-sqlite3&co): Ditto.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (flat-linux-module-directory): Add "guile-zlib"
to the extensions and make sure that the initrd only contains
uncompressed module files.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-shepherd-service): Add "guile-zlib" to the
extensions.
* guix/profiles.scm (linux-module-database): Ditto.
Instead of hard coding the debug directory to that of the user profile, use
Guile scripting in combination with a new search path specification on GDB to
specify the debug file directories.
* gnu/packages/gdb.scm (gdb-9.1): Add a search path specification for the
GDB_DEBUG_FILE_DIRECTORY environment variable.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (default-skeletons)[gdbinit]: Derive the value of
DEBUG-FILE-DIRECTORY via the GDB_DEBUG_FILE_DIRECTORY environment variable.
* doc/guix.texi (Installing Debugging Files): Document it.
Tools such as efibootmgr rely on the deprecated /sys/firmware/efi/vars API as
well as on the new /sys/firmware/efi/efivars API. The latter needs to be
mounted.

Here is the efivarfs documentation:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/filesystems/efivarfs.txt.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%efivars-file-system): New exported variable,
(%base-file-systems): add it.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%efivars-file-system): Add it.

* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (<file-system>): Add a mount-may-fail? field.
(file-system->spec): adapt accordingly,
(spec->file-system): ditto.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (mount-file-system): If 'system-error is raised
and mount-may-fail? is true, ignore it. Otherwise, re-raise the exception.

This allows users to specify network interface settings with 'guix system vm'
without having to create a new NIC. Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42252>.
Reported by Christopher Lemmer Webber <cwebber@dustycloud.org>.
This reverts commit 5379392731.
This fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42151>.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): Use #:wal-mode #f
in call to ...
* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): ... this, add #:wal-mode?
parameter, pass it to ...
(register-closure): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter, pass it to ...
* guix/store/database.scm (with-database): ... this, add #:wal-mode?
parameter, pass it to ...
(call-with-database): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter; when
set to #f, do not set journal_model=WAL.
This is a follow-up to commit b904b59ce5.
* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): Move to ...
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): ... here.
(hurd-disk-image): Use it.
This is a follow-up to commit b904b59ce5.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-disk-image): Add file-system-options to
create an ext2 file-system that is compatible with the Hurd.
These issues were reported by -Wformat, though they were harmless in
practice because importing (ice-9 format) changes the global 'format'
binding currently.
* gnu/services/nix.scm: Import (ice-9 format).
* gnu/services/web.scm: Likewise.
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm: Likewise.
ISO9660 image compression was temporarily disabled to speed-up tests of the
new image API. Enable it again.
* gnu/system/image.scm (iso9660-image)[compression]: Enable it.
This moves hurd-disk-image to a dedicated file. It also defines a default
operating-system so that the image can be built standalone.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm: New file,
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): add it,
* gnu/system/image.scm (root-offset, root-label): Export it,
(hurd-disk-image): remove it as this is now defined in the new, Hurd dedicated
file above,
(find-image): adapt to avoid loop dependency.
Since c29bb909d2, fakeroot "sed" and "coreutils"
dependencies are now explicit.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Remove "sed" and "coreutils" from
inputs.
The "image-root" derivation output is used as a temporary directory that is
passed to mke2fs and mkdosfs later on. By merging the creation of this
directory and the production of partition images, we can get rid of the
derivation.
As mke2fs and mkdosfs are not able to override file permissions, call those
commands with fakeroot. This way, all the image files will be owned by root,
even if image generation is done in an unprivilegded context.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Merge "image-root" and
"iso9660-image" derivations so that we spare an extra derivation. Also add
"fakeroot" and its runtime dependencies to the inputs.
* gnu/build/image.scm (make-ext-image, make-vfat-image): Make sure that mke2fs
and mkdosfs are respectively called by fakeroot.
The "image-root" derivation output is used as a temporary directory that is
passed to GNU Xorriso later on. By merging the creation of this directory and
the production of an ISO image, we can get rid of the derivation.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-iso9660-image): Merge "image-root" and
"iso9660-image" derivations so that we spare an extra derivation.
* gnu/image.scm (<image>)[target]: New field,
(image-target): new public method.
* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-disk-image): Set "i586-pc-gnu" as image 'target'
field,
(maybe-with-target): new procedure,
(system-image): honor image 'target' field using the above procedure.
The initial
guix build -f gnu/system/hurd.scm
hack has been superseded by regular guix system (cross) build.
* gnu/system/hurd.scm (compile-manifest, cross-hurd-image): Remove.
* gnu/system/hurd.scm (%hurd-def%hurd-default-operating-system-kernel,
%hurd-default-operating-system): New exported variables.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-hurd.tmpl: New file.
* Makefile.am (EXAMPLES): Add it.
* tests/guix-system.sh: Add --target=i586-pc-gnu when testing it.
