If a repository has `sslcacert`, `sslclientcert`, or `ssclientkey` set,
pass them to anaconda through the kickstart file. This is mostly the
case when using RHEL repositories that are accessed through a
subscription.
In some cases when the host has, for whatever reason, multiple copies of
the same repo listed the build may fail with an error about running out
of space.
So this commit removes duplicate entries after the host's repos have been
loaded. It also adjusts some of the test repos to use different
temporary repo names for the tests.
If systemd's tmpfiles.d timer is executed while lorax is running it will
remove any files and directories older than 30 days. This is what has
been causing the occasional error where /proc/ would seem to vanish
during the install.
Upstream has proposed this solution, https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/11482
but until that is released we need a work-around to protect the lorax
files.
This commit does several things:
* Move the default tmpdir from /var/tmp/ to /var/tmp/lorax/
* Add a lorax.conf tmpfiles.d file that prevents systemd-tmpfiles from
removing anything under /var/tmp/lorax/
* Add an exit handler to lorax so that temporary directories are removed on
exit or on a python traceback.
* Use flock to lock access to the tempdir while lorax is running.
* Remove any unlocked tempdirs named /var/tmp/lorax/lorax.* at startup
Note that the exit handler will not remove the tempdir if lorax is
killed with a signal -- those are being caught by dnf and prevent the
exit handler from running.
systemd-tmpfiles cannot clean up the tempdirs at boot time because they
contain files labeled as shadow_t, so we have to remove those when lorax
runs. It uses the flock to prevent removing any directories created by
parallel instances of lorax and only removes ones that are unlocked.
Worst case they will be around until the first run of lorax after a
reboot.
If you want to keep the working directory around for debugging purposes
use --workdir /var/tmp/lorax/my-workdir and it won't be removed by
lorax.
After a novirt disk image install, we run `setfiles` in the
install root to ensure some SELinux contexts are correct. /dev
is currently excluded from this run. However, as reported and
discussed in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1663040
it seems that with a recent systemd change, startup of many
services will fail if /dev itself is incorrectly labelled, and
in current Rawhide live images, it *is* incorrectly labelled.
Including `/dev` in this setfiles command appears to resolve the
problem in my testing.

Drop running pkill. This causes problems if more than one is running on
a system (eg. in parallel using mock). It can kill off other processes
unrelated to this instance of anaconda.
This reverts commit 6b5c4df8b5.
Support both
[customizations]
hostname = "whatever"
and
[[customizations]]
hostname = "whatever"
in the blueprint data. The [[ syntax matches the other customization
directives (user, group, sshkey), and as such it's easy to accidentally
use it for the hostname without even realizing it's specifying something
different.
Add some tests for converting customizations to kickstarts.
Run df on the filesystem image after it has been created.

Return code: 0
It ends up that this isn't as easy as you'd think. Anaconda sets up some
signal handlers to handle cleanly exiting, but they are not being run
when sent a TERM after package installation has started. I think DNF
resets them causing it to get ignored.
When the cancel is sent it can take several minutes for it to have an
effect. In my testing it usually takes around 2 minutes for anaconda to
notice and exit.
This sends a TERM to the process and then waits for it to exit. When it
returns it then removed any device-mapper devices that were setup for
image installations, removes any hanging loop devices.
It then kills off any process with pyanaconda. in the cmdline, and
anaconda-bus.conf (because anaconda starts a bunch of helpers and if it
doesn't shut down cleanly they remain running).
Resolves: rhbz#1656691
In addition to monitoring the logs for errors, call a function (or
functions) that tell it to cancel the anaconda process and cleanup.
Also check for a cancel after creating the squashfs image for live-iso
since that's a long running process.
This required adding a new argument to a number of existing functions,
passing it down to QEMUInstall and novirt_install where the function is
called.

When there is no run or new symlink do one last check to make sure no
STATUS file was written. If it is missing, go ahead and remove the
results directory.

If another CANCEL request has already been made just exit from
uuid_cancel. If the build is FINISHED before it times out just exit,
don't remove the finished results.
Related: rhbz#1656691
When the repository has multiple arches, eg. i686 and x86_64, it should
add a new entry to the project's builds list, not create a new project
in the list.
This handles that by adding a modified insort_left function and
examining the packages returned from dnf to make sure they aren't
already listed in the results. It also handles adding them in sorted
order so that no further sorting needs to be done on the results.
Resolves: rhbz#1656642
If the system ran out of space, or was rebooted unexpectedly, the state
of the queue symlinks, or the results STATUS files may be inconsistent.
This checks them and:
* Removes broken symlinks from queue/new and queue/run
* Removes symlinks from run and sets the build to FAILED
* Sets builds w/o a STATUS to FAILED
* Sets builds with STATUS of RUNNING to FAILED
* Creates missing queue/new symlinks to results with STATUS of WAITING
So, any builds that were running during the reboot will be FAILED, and
any that were waiting to be started will be started upon rebooting.

Anaconda, Lorax, lorax-composer, and livemedia-creator can all now run
with SELinux in Enforcing mode. It does not need to be disabled and if
there are denials they should be reported as a bug.
Log the current state of SELinux when starting, update the
documentation.
Running lorax-composer --no-system-repos will prevent it from copying
the dnf repositories from /etc/yum.repos.d/ into the lorax-composer repo
directory. It will *only* use repositories setup using the sources api
or written to /var/lib/lorax/composer/repos.d/
If lorax-composer has previously been run without this switch the system
repos will need to be removed from the composer/repos.d/ directory. It
would also be a good idea to remove the cached metadata in
/var/tmp/composer/
Resolves: rhbz#1650363
Make runtime directly into squashfs image. This reduces largely
unreproducible ext4 layer, but requires anaconda's dracut module
modification to properly mount the image.
And in an intermediate version it returns a VectorString object which
isn't serializable by the json or toml modules.
So convert it to a list so that the type is consistent in the sources
code.
By default mkfs.mksdos choose volume id based on current time. If
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set, use that instead.

The previous method worked, but wasn't exactly idiomatic. This is more
correct, and appears to work the same (templates depsolve, version globs
work, multiple repos work).
Note that this does use a private dnf attribute ._goal, but the word is
that this is going to become a public api soon, so yes it is there on
purpose.
It needs to be root in order to set the ownership and permissions on the
directories that are under /var/lib/lorax/composer/
Refactor the directory creation into a utility function, and use a umask
of 0o006 to ensure that the parent directories created do not have o+rw
set on them (makedirs behavior is different between Python 3.6 and 3.7
so umask of 0 doesn't work consistently).
If a package is in multiple repos dnf may return more than 1 of them
when using best...glob so we pick the highest NEVRA one and install
that.

At the end of disk image installs, use fstrim on the generated filesystem to
discard any blocks that were allocated during the install and are now unused.
This will allow tools such as qemu-img to create images that do not include
deleted data.
For raw disk images that do not go through qemu-img, use fallocate --dig-holes
to create sparse holes in place of the unused blocks.
composer-cli uses TOML for 'blueprints save' which was returning an
empty 200 response if the blueprint didn't exist. Change this to return
a standard 400 error response if the blueprint doesn't exist.
composer-cli is already setup to handle receiving json when an error is
returned so just the toml API response for `blueprints/save` needed to
be changed.
Anaconda requires the root password to be set or locked, so if there
isn't anything setting it we write out 'rootpw --lock'
Also adds tests for this.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1595917 and
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/dnf/pull/1200 for
more on this. Briefly, DNF before 3.0 presented this config
value as a list...and mutating it worked. DNF from 3.0 until
3.6 presented it as a list...mutating it didn't work, but also
didn't *fail*, so this has actually not been doing anything on
DNF 3.x but we haven't noticed.
In DNF 3.6 values like this are presented as tuples instead of
lists, to try and catch usages like this, and it worked! We
need to change this one.
There is an additional weirdness here. tsflags is actually, in
libdnf terms, an OptionStringListAppend option: that means that
when something tries to *set* its value, the new value is just
appended to the existing list of values. This is very weird
behaviour when you're interacting with it like this, but
happens to be quite useful, as we can just 'set' the value to
a list like this and it will actually get appended (which is
what we want), and this one syntax happens to work correctly in
DNF 2.x, 3.0 through 3.5.1, and 3.6.

When the kickstart is handed off to Anaconda for building it will
download its own copy of the metadata and re-run the depsolve. So if the
dnf cache isn't current there will be a mismatch and the build will
fail to find some of the versions in final-kickstart.ks
This adds a new context to DNFLock, .lock_check, that will force a check
of the metadata. It also implements its own timeout and forces a
refresh of the metadata when that expires because the dnf expiration
doesn't always work as expected.
Resolves: rhbz#1631561
Ends up you cannot use the kickstart user command on root, since it
already exists, so we have to translate that into a rootpw command.
So [[customizations.user]] with name = "root" only support key, which
will set the ssh key, and password which will use rootpw to set the
password. plain text or encrypted are supported.

This differs from lmc's --make-ami in that creates a full disk image instead of
an fsimage. Create a raw disk image with a / and /boot partitions, and enable
sshd, chronyd, and cockpit by default.
Remove `except` block which immediately raises the same exception again (it's
not a subclass of another caught exception, so this is safe).
Remove a false positive, because it is not emitted from the code base.
Disable subprocess-popen-preexec-fn in startProgram, which is not used

lorax uses pyanaconda's SimpleConfigParser in three different
places (twice with a copy that's been dumped into pylorax, once
by importing it), just to do a fairly simple job: read some
values out of /etc/os-release. The only value SimpleConfigParser
is adding over Python's own ConfigParser here is to read a file
with no section headers, and to unquote the values. The cost is
either a dependency on pyanaconda, or needing to copy the whole
of simpleparser plus some other utility bits from pyanaconda
into lorax. This seems like a bad trade-off.
This changes the approach: we copy one very simple utility
function from pyanaconda (`unquote`), and do some very simple
wrapping of ConfigParser to handle reading a file without any
section headers, and returning unquoted values. This way we can
read what we need out of os-release without needing a dep on
pyanaconda or to copy lots of things from it into pylorax.

In the near-future there may be /lib/modules/ directories for older

Instead use the existing findkernels() function to get the list of

This adds the following optional arguments to the /compose/status route:
- type, matches the compose_type field
- status, matches the queue_status field
- blueprint, matches the blueprint field
Currently we are making MBR disk images for qcow2 and partitioned disk,
so the UEFI packages aren't required at this point.
Move the clearpart command into compose.py so that in the futute it can
use clearpart --disklabel to create a GPT image, and add the required
packages to the package set.
The idea here is to make sure all return points have the same type for
the error cases. There's not really all that many, so they just go in
one patch. Some of these could potentially turn into more specialized
errors later.
(cherry picked from commit fd901c5e3f)
Note the exception string checking around compose_type. I didn't really
want to introduce a new exception type just for this, but also didn't
want to duplicate strings. I'd be open to other suggestions for how to
do this.

This adds some fairly redundant code to the beginning of all the
blueprint routes to attempt reading a commit from git for the
blueprint's recipe. If it succeeds, the blueprint exists and the route
can continue. Otherwise, return an error. Hopefully this doesn't slow
things down too much.

Note that this also changes the return type of uuid_info to return None
when an unknown ID is given. The other uuid_* functions are fine
because they are checked ahead of time.
(cherry picked from commit 6497b4fb65)
Each element in the errors value is now a dict, with a msg field and an
id field. The id field contains a value out of errors.py that can be
used by the front end to key on. The msg field is the same as what's

The idea is to keep the number of IDs somewhat limited so there's not a
huge number of things for the front end to know.

when invalid characters are passed in.
This also adds tests for the routes to confirm that an error is
correctly returned.
(cherry picked from commit 74f5def3d4)
This handles the case where a route is requested, but without a required
parameter. So, /blueprints/info is requested instead of
/blueprints/info/http-server. It accomplishes this via a decorator, so
a lot of these route-related functions now have quite a few decorators
attached to them.
Typo'd URLs (/blueprints/nfo for instance) will still return a 404. I
think this is a reasonable thing to do.
(cherry picked from commit 5daf2d416a)
Unfortunately, this isn't very useful if /modules/info is provided with
multiple modules. yum doesn't traceback when doPackageLists is given
something that doesn't exist. It just returns an empty list. If
/modules/info is given just one module and yum gives us an empty list,
it's easy to say what happened. If /modules/info is given several
modules and just one does not exist, we will not be able to detect that.
Fixing this would require doing more yum operations, which is likely to
slow things down and isn't the direction I want to be going.

If one of the timestamps isn't present (for instance, the finished

This is responsible for writing out a new times.toml file, containing

reliable than attempting to infer things from the filesystem, especially
in light of the fact that we can't ever really know when a file was
created.

A bad system repo can cause lorax-composer to fail to start. Instead of
a traceback log the error and exit.
(note that the exit still results in an OSError traceback due to part of

This adds a new argument to projects_depsolve and
projects_depsolve_with_size that contains the group list, unfortunately.
I would have prefered adding a function that just returns a list of all
the contents of a group and then add that to what was being passed into
projects_depsolve. However, there does not appear to be any good way to
do that in yum aside from a lot of grubbing around in the comps object,
which I am unwilling to do.

It appears that sometimes the loop device doesn't get setup properly,

Make it possible to manipulate the simple and regexp
tests the LogRequestHandler class uses to check error
messages for potential error states.
This is accomplished by moving the simple and regexp test
strings to class members, where they can be easily
manipulated by users of the pylorax module.
It's also now possible to set the log request handler class
for a LogMonitor.
This functionality can then be used for example like this:
customized_log_request_handler = monitor.LogRequestHandler
customized_log_request_handler.simple_tests.remove("Call Trace:")
log_monitor = monitor.LogMonitor(install_log,
timeout=opts.timeout,
log_request_handler_class = customized_log_request_handler)
This way installation will continue even if there was a call
trace in the logs. In a similar way additional tests and regexps can be
also added.
DNF Repo.dump() function cannot be used as a .repo file for dnf due to
it writing baseurl and gpgkey as a list instead of a string. Add a new
function to write this in the correct format, and limited to the fields
we use.
Add a test for the new function.
Fix /projects/source/info to return an error 400 if a nonexistant TOML
source is requested. If JSON is used the error is part of the standard
response.
Update test_server.py to check for the correct error code.
When adding a source failed it wasn't being removed from the dnf object.
This fixes that, and returns an error when setting up the source fails.
Also adds a test for it.
This also includes detecting rawhide vs. non-rawhide releases and
adjusting the tests accordingly (some of the source names change).
We had only been indirectly pulling in GConf, and anyways
nothing was listening to these keys.

First is Anaconda uses 6k blocks per file for its estimate, and it

Different versions of libgit2 act differently. Using TIME results in

This moves everything except the cmdline checking into run_creator in
pylorax.creator
It also rearranges some functions to prevent import loops, and adds a
utility function to imgutils (mkfsimage_from_disk for copying a
partition into a filesystem image).
This no longer uses the enabled configuration setting to select repos to
use. It uses everything in the repo_dir, and if system repos have not
been disabled it copies them into the repo_dir at startup, overwriting
the previous copy.
This reduces the amount of code in livemedia-creator to the cmdline
parsing and calling of the installer functions. Moving them into other
modules will allow them to be used by other projects, like the
lorax-composer API server.
filter(provides=...) doesn't work with paths. The release packages
provide system-release so just look for that instead of a file.
Now it finds the release package and selects it along with the
corresponding logos package.
Note, this has been broken since commit 431ca6ce
Commit 8edaefd4d1 added the ability to install specific NVR's of
packages, but it did not adjust the exclude operation to account for
this.
This patch fixes that, applying the exclude only to the name part of the
package NVR, and changes some variable names to pkgnvr/pkgnvrs to make
it more clear that the content has changed to <name>-<version>-<release>
Some lorax users run it from inside mock, which isn't able to detect
whether the host is in Permissive mode. This can lead to confusing
error messages, so this points them in the right direction.
When multiple units are passed to systemctl and one fails it doesn't
finish the others. Change the template command to call systemctl for

This also removes the lvm2-activation-generator in runtime-cleanup.tmpl
This will allow anaconda to fetch kickstarts using https when installing

Leave vmlinuz and .vmlinuz.hmac in /boot
dracut-fips module needs the vmlinuz.hmac file in order to boot.
It seems that on rare occasions losetup can return before the /dev/loopX
is ready for use, causing problems with mkfs. This tries to make sure
that the loop device really is associated with the backing file before
continuing.
NOTE that using losetup --list -O to return the backing store
associated with the loop device can fail due to losetup truncating
the output filename if sysfs isn't setup. Instead of printing the full
path it will truncate it to 64 characters with a * at the end.
See util-linux lib/loopdev.c for the code that does this.
Use the existing get_loop_name function, which uses losetup -j, to lookup
the loop device associated with the backing store which should work the
same, just in the opposite direction.
For historical reasons, lorax used the 'anaconda' package as a
touchstone to determine the architecture for the build. At some
point, this package became a metapackage that pulls in both the
GUI and headless installers.
In the modular world, it's possible that only the core and TUI bits
may be available for use. The only subpackage of anaconda that is
guaranteed to be on any viable system is anaconda-core, so let's
switch to using that for the touchstone instead of the metapackage.

Also sort the expanded list of packages so that any failures will
be consistent instead of depending on the randomness of a set().
And add better logging when things fail.
The core issue is that repodata may have packages that match globs, but
they cannot actually be installed (eg. sigrok-firmware). This can cause
*some* of the globbed packages to be installed before hitting the
failure package.
With this change it will log the expanded list of packages if a glob is
used. It will skip any packages that fail to install when using
--optional with the glob, and continue to install the rest.

OSTree is a deduplicating hardlink store using a new file path
`/ostree`, which SELinux policy doesn't know about. However, OSTree
has SELinux support built in, and rpm-ostree (for example) uses this
to ensure the attributes on files stored there are simply always
correct. Relabeling it will corrupt it.
Hence, let's skip it.
Right now we dump all subprocess output to `program.log`. Unfortunately,
The pungi/koji stack doesn't know how to scrape out the lorax logs.
And even when running interactively, it's annoying that *some* fatal
errors show up on stderr, but if it's from a subprocess, I need to go
over and `tail program.log`.
Let's output the subprocess stderr directly, since the user is
going to want it prominently anyways.
anaconda-26.1 changed how package scriptlet failures are handled. They
are now fatal, and anaconda hangs after logging an Installation failure.

Catch this (the 'packaging: Installation failed' part) and terminate the
image creation.
This controls how big the root filesystem is for the squashfs used in
the boot.iso, the default is 2GiB.
Note that larger rootfs sizes will require more memory and may cause the
build to fail.
I'm working on

using lorax to make an installer ISO with content embedded, I run out

Since this ends up being compressed anyways, let's just bump the
currently arbitrary `2` to `10` - the only real cost I can think of is
going to be a few more superblock entries.
