This change was inspired by a change done on Fedora's livecd-tools
from here: livecd-tools/livecd-tools#236. The patch corrects issues
with the setfiles SELinux relabel command. The issues become apparent
when the host and guest policies differ. Thus it becomes required
to explicitly set the policy to decouple from eventual unwanted
host settings.
The method _get_boot_image_output_file_format_from_dracut_code
is used in kiwi to match parts of the dracut code for the used
output file format. Beginning with dracut-056 the code part
checked has changed syntactically such that the match did
no longer work. This commit increases the scope of the match
and replace pattern and Fixes#2149
When passing signing_keys with the --add-repo|--set-repo
commandline options the delimiter to separate the single
key information is a colon(:). However, this is stupid when
kiwi expects the signing key to be references as an URI
format like file://... Therefore this patch changes the
delimiter from colon(:) to semicolon(;)
In Sphinx v5 warning will be treated as errors. This results in the following
warning to be an error: extlinks: Sphinx-6.0 will require a caption string to
contain exactly one '%s' and all other '%' need to be escaped as '%%'.
This commit applies the required quoting
Allow to specify the group id in the groups list a user
should belong to. The group id can be placed as part of
the group name separated by a colon like in the following
example:
<users>
<user groups="kiwi,admin:42,users" password="..." name="kiwi"/>
</users>
Please note kiwi checks if the provided group already
exists and only creates a group if it is not already present in
the system. As default groups are usually provided by the OS
itself including its preferred group id, you will intentionally
not be able to overwrite group id for existing groups.
This Fixes#2064
When using the apt packagemanager kiwi required the use of
debootstrap to create the initial rootfs. This works as long
as there is always a main distribution repository available
which follows the structure of the official debian mirrors.
However if such a main distribution is not present or an
alternative layout like e.g OBS repos is used, debootstrap
will refuse to work. To allow for an alternative and without
the dependency to debootstrap kiwi supports using a prebuilt
bootstrap package providing the mini rootfs to serve as
the bootstrap result. As all other package managers properly
supports installation into an empty new root, this feature
was only added when using the apt packagemanager
Subformats should also not be compressed when encryption is enabled
This is a follow on change to bdba953. When the filesystem is encrypted the
resulting image should not be compressed. Also explain why we ignore the
compression seeting in the user configuration for encrypted images.
The repository parameters for signing keys, the component
list the main distribution name for debian repositories and
also the repository_gpgcheck could not be set via the
commandline options --add-repo and/or --set-repo. This
commit adds support for them and also updates the manual
page accordingly
isolinux-config is called to update the search path inside
of the isolinux binary. isolinux/syslinux is exclusive to
the ix86 architecture and to BIOS firmware. Therefore the
condition to actually call it should reflect this.
Support creating block level clones of certain partitions
used in the image. Clones can be created from the root, boot
and any partition listed in the <partitions> element.
Fixed check_dracut_module_for_disk_overlay_in_package_list. The
check complains if the dracut-kiwi-overlay module is not installed
but overlay support was requested. This is correct but should only
be done if the selected initrd system is dracut.
Allow to protect the opening of the integrity data map and
journal through a keyfile. For setting the key file two new
optional type attributes were added:
* integrity_keyfile
* integrity_metadata_key_description
The key file format must be correct according to the selected
integrity algorithm. As of now the kiwi default hmac-sha256
algorithm is used with the selected keyfile
The optional integrity_metadata_key_description attribute
allows to specify a custom description of an integrity key
as it is expected to be present in the kernel keyring. The
information is placed in the integrity metadata block. If
not specified kiwi creates a key argument string instead
which is based on the given integrity_keyfile filename.
The format of this key argument is:
:BASENAME_OF_integrity_keyfile_WITHOUT_FILE_EXTENSION
Add option to set LUKS type to luks1
So far the LUKS type could be set to luks and luks2. However, what luks
version the value 'luks' evaluates to depends on how the distributor has
packaged luks. Thus it's possible that 'luks' is either luks1 or luks2. To
also have the opportunity to explicitly specify luks1 this commit adds
the opportunity in the schema.
