Sometimes it is necessary to modify the kernel command-line of the
image, this adds support for a [customizations.kernel] section to the
blueprint:
[customizations.kernel]
append = "nosmt=force"
This will be appended to the kickstart's bootloader --append argument.
Includes tests for modifying the bootloader line, the kickstart
template, and examining the final-kickstart.ks created for a compose.

Reading a blueprint wasn't checking to see if it had been deleted so it
was returning the most recent commit before it had been deleted. This
allowed things like starting a compose with a blueprint that technically
doesn't exist.
One exception to this is the /changes/ route, it must be available so
that you can use the commit hash to undo a delete.
This also adds tests for the various operations.

The reason for the 3G minimum was because anaconda had a bug with how it
calculated minimum disk size when using kickstart. The fix for this has
been in Anaconda since 29.16, so we can now remove our limit and
create somewhat smaller disk images.

In order to support iso creation on multiple arches with the templates
we need to be able to select different packages based on arch.
lorax-composer uses the arch-specific Lorax templates in order to
generate the output iso so this patch:
1. Creates a new template and type to parse it, live-install.tmpl
which contains only installpkg commands and #if clauses for arch
2. Removes bootloader related packages from the live-iso.ks
3. Remove dracut-config-rescue exclusion because it can cause problems
with some blueprints.
4. Switch logo requirement to system-logos which is satisfied by
generic-logos or fedora-logos. This prevents conflicts when a blueprint
installs fedora-release-workstation.
So in the future, if x86.tmpl, etc. need a new package to support
creating the iso it should be added to the correct section in
./share/live/live-install.tmpl
Resolves: rhbz#1673744
If a package is excluded in the template and later added by a blueprint
or dependency, anaconda will fail to finish the installation. So remove
the -dracut-config-rescue exclusion and instead remove the rescue
artifacts in %post

This template runner only uses the installpkg command to gather a list
of package NEVRA to be installed to support live iso creation.

This will make it easier to add a new subclass that only handles
installpkg for use with livemedia-creator and lorax-composer iso
creation.

Some platforms, like ppc64, require that the /boot partition be present.
It doesn't hurt to have it there on other platforms so instead of trying
to add per-arch kickstart templates just use reqpart --add-boot
everywhere.
Related: rhbz#1673744
reqpart can be used to make kickstarts more platform agnostic, creating
needed partitions without lmc having to keep track of the arch-specific
needs. eg. ppc64 needs prepboot and /boot
This increases the size of the disk based on whether reqpart or
reqpart --add-boot is in the kickstart.
Note that this is only valid for partitioned disk output types, not
for filesystem images or live iso output.

Apparently nobody has used these since the switch to py3, xrange is now
range and it needs to read the file in binary mode when generating the
sha256.

Add a /.in-container file to the container root so that tests requiring root
and loop device support will be skipped when running in a container.

Some platforms do not have grub2, and some require other partitions.
Anaconda will add platform specific partitions if the 'reqpart' command
is included, and it will add bootloader specific packages to the list if
they are needed.

In livemedia-creator's usage of this it can never pass in None, but if
someone were to import the library and use it, it would crash with
NoneType. So add the extra checks to make sure cancel_func isn't None,
just in case.
Related: rhbz#1684316
When using LMC to virt-install a system to an image, cancel_func is not
provided in run_creator, causing a TypeError (NoneType object is not
callable).

this will allow you to test against installed RPM like so:
# export CLI="/usr/bin/composer-cli"
# make test_images
If you already have lorax-composer running then you can directly
execute test scripts:
# ./tests/cli/test_build_and_deploy_aws.sh

this minimizes the possibility of these two to diverge over time.
make ci is the default for Jenkins and will also be used for
internal gating tests.

- on some arches (also Fedora x86_64) systemd-nspawn may not be
available
- delete composes from other tests in rlPhaseStartCleanup because
we're seeing the tar compose kind of hanging in Jenkins and that
test script is executed last so the slave may be running out of
disk space. Be a good citizen and clean up after the previous
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.

the unittest suite is currently executed on Fedora where tmux is

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.

note: for now use Fedora 28 for the Docker container until
CentOS 8 is released or we figure out how to use subscriptions
for official RHEL 8 images.
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.
