Partially fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/34276>.
Reported by Tobias Geerinckx-Rice <me@tobias.gr>.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm)[loader]: Call
'exit' when USER-BUILDER exits with a non-zero code.
* gnu/system/accounts.scm (sexp->user-group, sexp->user-account): New
procedures.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (account-activation): Call them in the arguments
to 'activate-users+groups'.
(account-shepherd-service): Likewise.
* gnu/build/activation.scm (activate-users+groups): Expect a list of
<user-account> and a list of <user-group>. Replace uses of 'match' on
tuples with calls to record accessors.
(activate-user-home): Likewise.
The (gnu system accounts) module is meant to be used both on the build-
and on the host-side.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm <top level>: Call 'default-shell'.
(<user-account>, <user-group>): Move to...
* gnu/system/accounts.scm: ... here. New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add system/accounts.scm.
In practice the error was not triggered because
'package-transitive-propagated-inputs' currently returns the empty list
for these two packages.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (gcrypt-sqlite3&co): Remove labels from the
result.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (gcrypt-sqlite3&co): Likewise.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl (services): Do it.
* gnu/system/examples/beaglebone.tmpl (packages): Do it.
(services): Do it.
* gnu/system/examples/desktop.tmpl (packages): Do it.
(services): Do it.
* gnu/system/examples/lightweight-desktop.tmpl (file-systems): Do it.
(packages): Do it.
* gnu/system/examples/vm-image.tmpl (packages): Do it.
* gnu/installer.scm: Rename to ...
* gnu/installer/record.scm: ... this.
* gnu/installer/build-installer.scm: Move everything to the build side and
rename to gnu/installer.scm.
* gnu/installer/newt.scm: Remove all the gexps and add depencies to newt
modules as this code will only be used on the build side by now.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Adapt it,
(dist_installer_DATA): New rule to install installer's aux-files.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%installation-services): Use only
'installer-program' from (gnu installer). The installer is now choosen on the
build side.
* guix/self.scm (*system-modules*): Restore previous behaviour and add all
installer files to #:extra-files field of the scheme-node.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Adapt it.
Source /etc/environment just before starting the installer. The login program
is supposed to load the environment variables of this file through PAM, but as
we replace it by the installer, they are no longer available. This is mostly
useful for the LANG environment variable.
* gnu/installer/build-installer.scm (installer-program-launcher): New exported
procedure.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%installation-services): Restore most of the origin
code. kmscon is only started on TTY1, and the graphical installer is the
login-program.
* configure.ac: Require that guile-newt is available.
* gnu/installer.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/aux-files/logo.txt: New file.
* gnu/installer/build-installer.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/connman.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/keymap.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/locale.scm: New file.

* gnu/installer/newt/wifi.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/steps.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/timezone.scm: New file.
* gnu/installer/utils.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add previous files.
* gnu/system.scm: Export %root-account.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%installation-services): Use kmscon instead of linux
VT for all tty.
(installation-os)[users]: Add the graphical installer as shell of the root
account.
[packages]: Add font related packages.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Add installer files.
These procedures were already either undocumented (and de facto
deprecated) or documented as deprecated or redundant.
* gnu/services/base.scm (guix-service, guix-publish-service): Mark as
deprecated.
* gnu/services/mcron.scm (mcron-service): Likewise.
* gnu/services/networking.scm (tor-service): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi (Scheduled Job Execution): Remove 'mcron-service' and
adjust example.
(Networking Services): Remove 'tor-service'.
* gnu/tests/base.scm (%mcron-os): Use 'mcron-service-type' instead of
'mcron-service'.
* gnu/tests/networking.scm (%tor-os): Use 'tor-service-type' instead of
'tor-service'.
* tests/guix-system.sh: Likewise.
This ensures one can scp to or from the GuixSD machine that uses the
service.
* gnu/services/ssh.scm (openssh-service-type)[extensions]: Add
PROFILE-SERVICE-TYPE extension.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl <packages>: Remove OPENSSH.
* doc/guix.texi (Using the Configuration System): Adjust accordingly.
Previously 'expression->initrd' would return the directory that contains
the 'initrd' file; now it returns the complete file name for that file.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd)[builder]: Change
output file name to "initrd.cpio.gz". Tail-call 'file-append' to return
the complete file name.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-initrd-file): Remove 'file-append'
call.
* gnu/build/linux-initrd.scm (write-cpio-archive): Check whether OUTPUT
already has the ".gz" suffix; rename if before invoking GZIP if it does,
and otherwise after.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm)[builder]: Do
not append "/initrd" to #$initrd.
This is an incompatible change visible to users via the 'initrd' field
of 'operating-system'. However, assuming the user's 'initrd' value
tail-calls to 'raw-initrd' or 'base-initrd', the switch to non-monadic
style is invisible.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Use 'computed-file'
instead of 'gexp->derivation'.
(raw-initrd, base-initrd): Adjust docstring to mention non-monadic
return.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Adjust
accordingly.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-directory-base-entries)
(operating-system-initrd-file)
(operating-system-boot-parameters): Adjust accordingly.
* doc/guix.texi (operating-system Reference)
(Initial RAM Disk): Update.
* gnu/system.scm (bootable-kernel-arguments): Remove 'kernel-arguments'
parameter and return only the base list of kernel arguments. Rename
'system.drv' to 'system'.
(operating-system-kernel-arguments): Adjust accordingly and remove
'system.drv' parameter.
(read-boot-parameters-file): Adjust accordingly. Remove 'if params'
since dominating code assumed PARAMS is always true.
(operating-system-boot-parameters): Remove 'system.drv' parameter; add
#:system-kernel-arguments? instead and honor it.
(operating-system-bootcfg): Adjust accordingly.
(operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Likewise.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Remove
'os-drv' variable. Adjust call to 'operating-system-kernel-arguments'.
This significantly improves read throughput when running things like
"guix hash -r ...".
* gnu/system/vm.scm (%linux-vm-file-systems): Add 'flags' for "store".
Add "cache=loose" to every file system.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/32652>.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (operating-system-uuid)[service-name,
file-system-digest]: New procedures.
Map these over services and file systems and hash the result.
* tests/guix-system.sh: Add test.
Previously the warning would list all the required modules rather than
just those that are missing.
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm (check-device-initrd-modules): Compute
'missing' and report it.
Previously we would not strip the ".ko" suffix if present.
* gnu/build/linux-modules.scm (file-name->module-name): Export.
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm (check-device-initrd-modules): Use
'file-name->module-name' instead of 'normalize-module-name'.
Lack of a loopback device prevented the system from building starting
from commit 363c946b36.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%installation-services): Add
'static-networking-service-type' instance for 'lo'.
Partly fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/30312>.
* doc/guix.texi (Preparing for Installation): Add note on how to choose
between UEFI and BIOS.
(Using the Configuration System)[Bootloader]: New subsubsection.
(Bootloader Configuration): Expound on the bootloader type and target.
* gnu/system/examples/desktop.tmpl: Switch to UEFI.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl: Explicitly mention "legacy" and
"BIOS" in the comments.
Reported by Tobias Geerinckx-Rice <me@tobias.gr>
and Björn Höfling <bjoern.hoefling@bjoernhoefling.de>.

'%store-prefix' is defined.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball)[not-config?]
[libgcrypt, schema]: New variables.
[build]: Wrap in 'with-extensions'. Adjust imported module list to use
'make-config.scm' for (guix config).
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm)
[user-builder]: Define in non-monadic style as 'program-file'.
[loader]: Likewise, and 'execl' USER-BUILDER instead of loading it.
(system-docker-image): Pass BUILD as the second
argument to 'expression->derivation-in-linux-vm'.
(make-iso9660-image, qemu-image): Remove call to 'reboot'.
The previous implementation of 'read-reference-graph' was good enough
for many use cases, but it discarded the graph structure, which is
useful information in some cases.
* guix/build/store-copy.scm (<store-info>): New record type.
(read-reference-graph): Rewrite to return a list of <store-info>.
(closure-size, populate-store): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/services/base.scm (references-file): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-docker-image): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (squashfs-image, docker-image): Likewise.
* tests/gexp.scm ("gexp->derivation #:references-graphs"): Likewise.
This is a followup to commit 1382bde93c,
which disabled automatic sourcing of /etc/bashrc by interactive shell.
The noticeable effect of the change would be that Bash completion would
only work in login shells.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (default-skeletons)["bashrc"]: Source
/etc/bashrc.
* gnu/packages/bootloaders.scm (u-boot-puma-rk3399): New variable.

The 'title' field was easily overlooked and was an endless source of
confusion. Now, the value of the 'device' field is self-contained.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (<file-system>): Change constructor name
to '%file-system'.
[title]: Remove.
(<file-system-label>): New record type with printer.
(report-deprecation, device-expression)

* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-root-file-system): Use an accessor
instead of 'match'.
Previously, if you wrote (device "my-label") without (title 'label),
you'd get:
guix system: error: stat: No such file or directory: "my-label"
Now you get a proper error and a hint.
Reported by Pierre-Antoine Rouby.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (check-file-system-availability)[literal]: New
variable. Loop over LITERAL.

docker-image, and in that case, call system-docker-image.
(show-help): Document docker-image.
(guix-system): Parse arguments for docker-image.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Document "guix system
docker-image".

available in the VM.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (%linux-vm-file-systems): Add a corresponding entry.
This mostly reverts ca23693d28, which
introduced a circular dependency between (gnu system linux-initrd)
and (gnu system mapped-devices).
Reported by Eric Bavier.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (check-device-initrd-modules): Move to...
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm (check-device-initrd-modules): ... here.
* po/guix/POTFILES.in: Adjust accordingly.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/30760>.
Reported by Tomáš Čech <sleep_walker@gnu.org>.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (check-device-initrd-modules): Call
'known-module-aliases' and catch 'system-error around it. Pass it to
'matching-modules'.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/30667>.
Reported by Björn Höfling <bjoern.hoefling@bjoernhoefling.de>.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (file-system->mount-tag): Use 'sha1' to compute the
tag.
Previously the KNOWN-FS value used in 'essential-services' would be
incomplete: it would lack all the file systems provided by services that
extend 'file-system-service-type' (/sys/fs/cgroup,
/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc, etc.) Consequently, upon shutdown,
'user-processes' would unmount these file systems before their
corresponding service had been stopped; when their corresponding (e.g.,
'file-system-/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc') was stopped, its 'umount' call
would fail.
This was harmless in practice, but this patch makes sure things work as
intended and file systems are unmounted in the right order.
* gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-shepherd-services): Instantiate
'user-file-systems' Shepherd service from here.
(user-unmount-service-type, user-unmount-service): Remove.
* gnu/system.scm (essential-services): Remove call to 'user-unmount-service'.
* gnu/system/install.scm (cow-store-service-type): Adjust comment.
Fixes a regression in installation tests, whereby 'guix system init'
would report that virtio modules are missing for the target devices.
In practice virtio modules were always available since 'base-initrd' was
always called with #:virtio? #t. This commit simply moves them to
'%base-initrd-modules' so that 'guix system' knows they're available.
Reported by Danny Milosavljevic <dannym@scratchpost.org> at
<https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=30629#112>.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (default-initrd-modules): Add virtio
modules.
(base-initrd): Remove #:virtio? and 'virtio-modules'.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm)
(system-qemu-image, virtualized-operating-system): Remove uses of
#:virtio?.
* doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Update 'base-initrd' doc.
Fixes a regression introduced in
bc499b113a, whereby the default initrd
used by 'expression->derivation-in-linux-vm' would lack all the usual
modules: virtio, nls_iso8859-1, etc.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Pass
#:linux-modules to 'base-initrd'.
Fixes a bug whereby, for an "iso9660" file system, it would return
'("iso9660" "isofs"), i.e., both the key and the value.

a list of <mapped-device>. Pass #:needed-for-boot? and #:initrd-modules
to CHECK.
(check-initrd-modules): New procedure.

pass it to 'call-with-error-handling'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd): Add #:on-error and pass it.

This avoids the hard-coded "/dev/sda1", which only made sense when the
image is run with "qemu-system-x86_64 -hda", not when it's passed to
Xen, etc.
Reported by Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr>.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image): Define 'root-uuid', use it as
the 'device' field for "/", and pass it to 'qemu-image'.
On ARM32 without LPAE support, hugetlb control group is not supported.
As it is not needed by elogind, remove it for all platforms.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%control-groups): Remove hugetlb from control
groups platforms.
This improves the performance of the shared store for operations involving
lots of files, e.g. searching through the store.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (mapping->file-system): Add cache=loose to options.
* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (install-extlinux): Factorize bootloader
writing in a new procedure write-file-on-device defined in (gnu build
bootloader).
* gnu/build/bootloader.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add new file.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-img): Adapt to import and use (gnu build bootloader)
module during derivation building.
* gnu/scripts/system.scm (bootloader-installer-derivation): Ditto.
* gnu/build/vm.scm (load-in-linux-vm): New argument #:target-arm32.
Use it to adapt command for qemu-system-arm. This implies to choose a
machine ("virt"), use the correct console port "ttyAMA0", disable KVM use
that is buggy on some ARM boards (Odroid XU4 for example) and use user mode
network stack instead of NIC. Gather all those options in a new variable
"arch-specific-flags".
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Pass
to load-in-linux-vm "#:target-arm32?" argument.
This reduces the closure of Guile from 131 MiB to 116 MiB and removes
extra readline/ncurses builds from the bootstrap path.
* gnu/packages/guile.scm (guile-2.0)[inputs]: Remove READLINE.
(make-guile-readline): New procedure.
(guile-readline): New variable.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (default-skeletons): Adjust '.guile' so that it
gracefully deals with missing (ice-9 readline).
Reported by Christopher Baines <mail@cbaines.net>
at <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-12/msg00058.html>.
* gnu/services/ssh.scm (<openssh-configuration>)[%auto-start?]: New
field.
(openssh-shepherd-service): Honor it.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%installation-services): Set '%auto-start?' to
#f for openssh-service-type.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-img): Do not add EFI partition if we are targetting
ARM.
UEFI support on u-boot is still experimental, so do not add EFI partition on
ARM for now.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image, system-qemu-image,
virtualized-operating-system): Replace base-initrd by
(operating-system-initrd os).
The system produced were always using base-initrd even if the user had
defined a custom initrd based on raw-initrd in the os declaration.
I dediced to keep adding /tmp as tmpfs since I was not able to trigger bug
while still using unionfs, so I could not verify whether this mount is still
needed with overlayfs. Mapping /tmp to tmpfs does not harm, so we are on the
save side.
* gnu/system/install.scm (make-cow-store): Mount /gnu/store without additional
read-only bind-mount, since in overlayfs the "lower" level is always
read-only. Add work-dir required by overlayfs. No need to sleep anymore
since now using the mount syscall. [unionfs]: Remove now unused function.
(%installation-services): Update comment.
(installation-os)[file-systems]: Update comment.
Overlayfs is part of the kernel, while unionfs needs FUSE. This also reduces
the size of the initrd by ca. 4.3% (487K).
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Remove optional parameter
"unionfs"; mount using overlayfs instead of unionfs; new directory layout
requied by overlayfs; update documentation.
[mark-as-not-killable]: Remove now unused function
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (file-system-packages): Remove now unused
packages "unionfs-fuse/static" and thus unused related 'if'.
(linux-modules): Replace "fuse" by "overlay".
* gnu/system/vm.scm (operating-system-uuid): Use 2^32 - 1 instead of
2^32 as hash size.
On some 32 bit system (ARM for example), 2^32 exceeds hash max
size (ULONG_MAX = 2^32 - 1).
* gnu/system/examples/lightweight-desktop.tmpl <file-systems>: Add a
UUID for the /boot/efi partition.
* doc/guix.texi (Using the Configuration System): Mention it.

* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (file-system->spec): When DEVICE is a
UUID, serialize it in a way that preserves its type.
(spec->file-system): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (canonicalize-device-spec): Add case for
when SPEC is 'uuid?'.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (mount-file-system): Rename 'spec' to 'fs'
and assume it's a <file-system>.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Assume MOUNTS is a list of
<file-system> and adjust accordingly.
* gnu/build/linux-container.scm (mount-file-systems): Remove
'file-system->spec' call.
* gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-shepherd-service): Add
'spec->file-system' call. Add (gnu system file-systems) to 'modules'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd): Use (gnu system
file-systems). Add 'spec->file-system' call for #:mounts.
By referencing guile from the initrd output explicitly, it will be present in
the store when this initrd is used. If the exact guile used within the initrd
isn't present in the store, then after root is switched during the boot
process, loading modules (such as (ice-9 popen)) won't work.
This fixes guix-patches bug #28399, "Fix mysql activation, and add a basic
test".
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd)[builder]: Write out a file
called references in to the initrd output, which includes the store path for
guile.
