* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Honor rootfstype and rootflags
arguments. Update doc. Error out in case there is insufficient information
with regard to the root file system.
Restore the behavior of inferring the root device from the root file system
from the operating system in case the root argument is not provided.
* doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Document the new command-line parameters.
This is to make it less surprising, given the common convention sets forth by
the kernel Linux command-line parameters.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Rename '--load', '--repl', '--root'
and '--system' to 'gnu.load', 'gnu.repl', 'root' and 'gnu.system',
respectively. Adjust doc.
(find-long-option): Adjust doc.
* gnu/installer/parted.scm (installer-root-partition-path): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/system.scm (bootable-kernel-arguments): Add a VERSION argument and
update doc. Use VERSION to conditionally return old style vs new style initrd
arguments.
(%boot-parameters-version): Increment to 1.
(operating-system-boot-parameters): Adjust doc.
(operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Likewise.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd, base-initrd): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi: Adjust doc.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (boot-time-system): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/build/hurd-boot.scm (boot-hurd-system): Likewise.
* gnu/packages/commencement.scm (%final-inputs-riscv64): Adjust comment.
This package has a long history of confusing users, due to containing only a
small, arbitrary subset of UTF-8 locales.
* gnu/packages/base.scm (glibc-utf8-locales): Define as a hidden package.
* doc/guix.texi (Application Setup): Do not mention glibc-utf8-locales.
Instead, provide an example for defining a custom locales package.
* guix/scripts/pull.scm (display-channel-news): Return #t when news were
displayed.
(display-news): Add #:profile-news? parameter and honor it. Print
something there were no news.
(process-query): For 'display-news', call 'display-channel-news'
directly.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix pull): Adjust accordingly.
%setuid-programs was previously moved to be in the list sexp instead of just
the append one. This causes an "invalid G-expression input" error.
Error reported by: Kolev on #guix.
* doc/guix.texi (Setuid Programs): Move %setuid-programs out to the append
sexp.

* doc/contributing.texi (Building from Git): Tweak so that all the
commands appear in @example boxes. Show --localstatedir=/var instead of
--localstatedir=@var{directory}.
* doc/guix.texi (Swap Space): The examples referred to variables
defined outside of the snippets, and so were not very informative for
people without much Guile knowledge. Instead, refer to mapped-devices
for the first, and use the new helper
file-systme-mount-point-predicate for the second.

Fixes a bug whereby authentication of a commit *not* descending from the
introductory commit could succeed, provided the commit verifies the
authorization invariant.
In the example below, A is a common ancestor of the introductory commit
I and of commit X. Authentication of X would succeed, even though it is
not a descendant of I, as long as X is authorized according to the
'.guix-authorizations' in A:
X I
\ /
A
This is because, 'authenticate-repository' would not check whether X
descends from I, and the call (commit-difference X I) would return X.
In practice that only affects forks because it means that ancestors of
the introductory commit already contain a '.guix-authorizations' file.
* guix/git-authenticate.scm (authenticate-repository): Add call to
'commit-descendant?'.
* tests/channels.scm ("authenticate-channel, not a descendant of introductory commit"):
New test.
* tests/git-authenticate.scm ("authenticate-repository, target not a descendant of intro"):
New test.
* tests/guix-git-authenticate.sh: Expect earlier test to fail since
9549f0283a is not a descendant of
$intro_commit. Add new test targeting an ancestor of the introductory
commit, and another test targeting the v1.2.0 commit.
* doc/guix.texi (Specifying Channel Authorizations): Add a sentence.
* doc/guix.texi (Monitoring Services): Document the various 'zabbix-*' service
types, and expand description of all Zabbix services. Use less marketing terms.
(Web Services): Add subsubheading for PHP-FPM, and anchors for
cross-referencing.
* gnu/services/monitoring.scm (zabbix-front-end-configuration): Use @ref
instead of @pxref for cross-referencing.
...to make them in line with the newly generated front-end documentation.
* doc/guix.texi (Monitoring Services): Regenerate zabbix-server-configuration
and zabbix-agent-configuration.
Commit e301f1a8ed removed the NGINX argument
entirely, but users may rely on and override it. Reported by rekado on #guix.

exported variable.
(zabbix-front-end-nginx-extension): New procedure.
(zabbix-front-end-configuration): Remove FASTCGI-PARAMS field. Restore NGINX
field, but default to the empty list.
(zabbix-front-end-service-type): Extend NGINX-SERVICE-TYPE by
ZABBIX-FRONT-END-NGINX-EXTENSION.
* doc/guix.texi (Monitoring Services): Regenerate documentation.
* gnu/services/guix.scm (<nar-herder-configuration>): Add ttl and negative-ttl
fields.
(nar-herder-shepherd-services): Pass the ttl and negative-ttl values to the

parameter and use it.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (process-command): Add "/run/current-system"
as first argument to 'generation-number'.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Clarify that 'guix system
describe' shows the running system.
