Subject: [PATCH] kernel-install: don't try to persist used machine ID locally
This reworks the how machine ID used by the boot loader spec snippet
generation logic. Instead of persisting it automatically to /etc/ we'll
append it via systemd.machined_id= to the kernel command line, and thus
persist it in the generated boot loader spec snippets instead. This has
nice benefits:
1. We do not collide with read-only root
2. The machine ID remains stable across factory reset, so that we can
safely recognize the path in $BOOT we drop our kernel images in
again, i.e. kernel updates will work correctly and safely across
kernel factory resets.
3. Previously regular systems had different machine IDs while in
initrd and after booting into the host system. With this change
they will now have the same.
This then drops implicit persisting of KERNEL_INSTALL_MACHINE_ID, as its
unnecessary then. The field is still honoured though, for compat
reasons.
This also drops the "Default" fallback previously used, as it actually
is without effect, the randomized ID generation already took precedence
in all cases. This means $MACHNE_ID/KERNEL_INSTALL_MACHINE_ID are now
guaranteed to look like a proper machine ID, which is useful for us,
given you need it that way to be able to pass it to the
systemd.machine_id= kernel command line option.
