Define the distribution strings for RHEL 8.5 in distro/rhel86 and add
constructors. Remove the old 8.5 from the distro registry and use the
new constructors.
Composer can now build RHEL 8.5 image-installer on aarch64, which wasn't
supported before.
RHEL 8.5 manifests have changed to minimise the differences from 8.6.
Some changes are fixes made in 8.6 but never backported to 8.5 because
of our (older) policy of not changing definitions after the release of a
distro.
Other changes are non-functional (e.g., stage or package order).
See the list below for the source of each change.
Manifest changes:
- Stage order changed for org.osbuild.systemd-logind and
org.osbuild.rhsm.
- org.osbuild.grub2 options: config.default = "saved"
Reverted 111cd8871f
- Partition sizes: RHEL 8.5 had extra arbitrarily sized padding for the
header. Now all partitions are sized to fit headers exactly.
Original change at b7abef54e8.
- SELinux set to permissive in Anaconda. This was changed in RHEL 8.6
and 9.0 but never backported to 8.5.
See a7fbe916b7.
- Installer isolevel set to 3. Like above, this was changed in
8.6 and 9.0.
Original change at d8d161480e.
- Specify a remote for edge deployments.
Original change at b18b4e80a0.
Added utility function for comparing RHEL version strings.
Conditions added:
- greenboot subpackages were changed between RHEL 8.5 and RHEL 8.6.
- fido client packages aren't available in RHEL prior to 8.6.
- the ec2 SAP image type is not supported in RHEL prior to 8.6.
- the edge-simplified-installer and edge-raw-image image types are not
supported in RHEL prior to 8.6.
- They were previously supported in 8.5 without FDO support, but now
it's dropped from 8.5 completely.
Add a container image type that is based on the existing fedora
container image. There is a delta in terms of the configuration
because osbuild does not yet provide all the neccessary means,
but the package set is already very close.
If the image is not bootable it means that we do not need the kernel
version and thus we should not pass it along to `NewOSPipeline`,
because we might not even have a kernel in the package set.
We don't need to label container artifacts, so include an option
in the image config to disable it.
NB: This is a boolean that with the default false in order to
not have to change every existing image configuration.
Add a new extended helper `GetPackagesEx` that includes a flag
to specify if the target is bootlable or not and only include
the kernel package in case it is set to true. Delegate to this
new helper from the existing `GetPackages`.
Stages are procedural and named after the tool they wrap, but pipelines are declarative and should
be named after the kind of artefact they produce.
This splits the qemu (the tool) pipeline into qcow2, vmdk, and vpc (the formats) pipelines. In theory
we may have wanted to implemented through some shared helpers, but for now it seems trivial
enough that it is not worth it.
The ideal is that the constructor takes mandatory properties as arguments, and fields in the struct
are all optional.
This clarifies that across the pipelines (or leaves TODOs where work remains), and where possible
makes fields optional by providing a valid default value.
This adds more documentation and makes more properties implicitly inherited rather than
repeated. This makes for less boilerplate, and gives us fewer things to keep in sync.
The OSPipeline might need to know what disk layout it will be put onto, enforce this by making
the PartitionTable a property of the OSPipeline, and require child pipelines to query it when needed.
The pipeline package is exists conceptually between the distro and the osbuild packages, so move
it to the top level rather than as a child of distro.
No functional change.
This is a collection of minor cleanups:
- Start documenting the API
- Enforce dependent pipelines have the correct type where necessary
- Use data from dependent pipelines where possible
- Start enforcing required fields
- Move logic into the pipeline implementation where we can
This pulls out the OS pipeline, without changing the parameters. The dependency
between the OS pipeline and build pipeline, is now explicit, rather than by name.
Add a new option to `GenImagePrepareStages`, which is used by all
modern pipelines for partitioning, to optionally use the `sgdisk`
partitioning tool via `org.osbuild.sgdisk`.
The `distro` package is now used for distro definitions supported by
osbuild-composer, not for introspecting the Host system. Move
`GetRedHatRelease()` and `GetHostDistroName()` functions to the `common`
package.
The `amdgpu` module causes issues on certain GPU-enabled instances
on Azure and it must not be loaded by default.
Modules are sorted alphabetically.

In commit 5c1530e we disabled `skx_edac` and `intel_cstate` but
after further consultation with Prarit Bhargava it was agreed that
for RHEL 9 we should indeed allow them.
This test was removed because package sets in chains are no longer
visible in the map returned from ImageType.PackageSets().
Bringing back the test now to ensure that:
1. All package set names defined in the keys returned from the
PackageSets() map match the keys returned from the
PackageSetsChains() map.
2. All package sets defined in the package set chains are defined for
the image type. This is tested by the function PackageSets()
function itself, which should never panic.
The repository checksums in the response from dnf-json aren't used
anywhere. Since we're making changes to dnf-json and depsolving, now is
a good opportunity to drop them completely.
Move package set chain collation to the distro package and add
repositories to the package sets while returning the package sets from
their source, i.e., the ImageType.PackageSets() method.
This also removes the concept of "base repositories". There are no
longer repositories that are added implicitly to all package sets but
instead each package set needs to specify *all* the repositories it will
be depsolved against.
This paves the way for the requirement we have for building RHEL 7
images with a RHEL 8 build root. The build root package set has to be
depsolved against RHEL 8 repositories without any "base repos" included.
This is now possible since package sets and repositories are explicitly
associated from the start and there is no implicit global repository
set.
The change requires adding a list of PackageSet names to the core
rpmmd.RepoConfig. In the cloud API, repositories that are limited to
specific package sets already contain the correct package set names and
these are now copied to the internal RepoConfig when converting types in
genRepoConfig().
The user-specified repositories are only associated with the payload
package sets like before.
Attach the repository configurations that are specific to a package set
directly on the PackageSet object. This simplifies the Depsolve()
signature and avoids requiring a `nil` when no additional repositories
are required. More importantly, it makes associating repositories to
package sets explicit, no longer relying on matching array indices or
map keys.
Remove the single Depsolve function from the dnfjson package and the
depsolve command from the dnf-json tool. The new ChainDepsolve
functions and chain-depsolve command can handle single depsolves in the
same way so there's no need to keep (and have to maintain) two versions
of very similar code.
The ChainDepsolve function (in Go) and chain-depsolve command (in
Python) have been renamed to plain Depsolve and depsolve respectively,
since they are now general purpose depsolve functions.
All calls to rpmmd.Depsolve() are now replaced with the equivalent call
to solver.Depsolve() (or dnfjson.Depsolve() for one-off calls).
Attached an unconfigured dnfjson.BaseSolver to all APIs and server
configurations where rpmmd.RPMMD used to be. This BaseSolver instance
loads the repository credentials from the system and carries the cache
directory, much like the RPMMD field used to do. The BaseSolver is used
to create an initialised (configured) solver with the platform variables
(module platform ID, release ver, and arch) before running a Depsolve()
or FetchMetadata() using the NewWithConfig() method.
The FillDependencies() call in the modulesInfoHandler() of the weldr API
has been replaced by a direct call to the Depsolve() function. This
rpmmd function was only used here. Replacing the rpmmd.Depsolve() call
in rpmmd.FillDependencies() with dnfjson.Depsolve() would have created
an import cycle. The FillDependencies() function could have been moved
to dnfjson, but since it's only used in one place, moving the one-line
function body into the caller is ok.
For testing:
The mock-dnf-json is compiled to a temporary directory during test
initialisation and used for each Depsolve() or FetchMetadata() call.
The weldr API tests now use the mock dnfjson. Each rpmmd_mock.Fixture
now also has a dnfjson_mock.ResponseGenerator.
All API calls in the tests use the proper functions from dnfjson and
only the dnf-json script is mocked. Because of this, some of the
expected results in responses_test had to be changed to match correct
behaviour:
- The "builds" array of each package in the result of a module or
project list is now sorted by version number (ascending) because we
sort the package list in the result of dnfjson by NVR.
- 'check_gpg: true' is added to the expected response of the depsolve
test. The repository configs in the test weldr API specify 'CheckGPG:
True', but the mock responses returned it as false, so the expected
result didn't need to include it. Since now we're using the actual
dnfjson code to convert the mock response to the internal structure,
the repository settings are correctly used to set flag to true for
each package associated with that repository.
- The word "occurred" was mistyped as "occured" in rpmmd and is now
fixed in dnfjson.
Those images are forced to be 64GiB in size but mostly consist of zeros.
This makes them hard to handle, e.g. uploading to brew takes a forever.
The vhdPipelines is converted to a function returning the pipelinesFunc
and it has a single argument `compress` that will add the compression
pipeline bits if `true`. Will return exactly the old pipeline in case
of `false`.

Add support for building images for the Azure marketplace: add a
new image type "azure-rhui" that can be used to build images
tailored to the Azure marketplace.
This code is based on the corresponding image type in 8.6.
NB: does not have systemd-resovled (following RHEL 9 defaults)
