LOOP_CONFIGURE allows to atomically configure the decive when opening it. This avoid the possibility of a race condition where between set_fd and set_status some operations are already accepted by the loopback device. See https://lwn.net/Articles/820408/ This feature was included in the linux kernel 5.8 however it is safe to not include any kind of fallback to the previous method as @obudai points out that: LOOP_CONFIGURE was backported into RHEL 8 kernel in RHEL 8.4 as a part of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1881760 (block layer: update to upstream v5.8). Since RHEL 8.4 is currently the oldest supported release that we support running osbuild on, it might be just fine implementing this without the fallback. From a centos stream 8 container: kernel-4.18.0-448.el8.x86_64 - loop: Fix missing discard support when using LOOP_CONFIGURE (Ming Lei) [1997338] - [block] loop: Set correct device size when using LOOP_CONFIGURE (Ming Lei) [1881760] - [block] loop: unset GENHD_FL_NO_PART_SCAN on LOOP_CONFIGURE (Ming Lei) [1881760] - [block] loop: Add LOOP_CONFIGURE ioctl (Ming Lei) [1881760] |

OSBuild
Build-Pipelines for Operating System Artifacts
OSBuild is a pipeline-based build system for operating system artifacts. It defines a universal pipeline description and a build system to execute them, producing artifacts like operating system images, working towards an image build pipeline that is more comprehensible, reproducible, and extendable.
See the osbuild(1) man-page for details on how to run osbuild, the definition
of the pipeline description, and more.

Requirements
The requirements for this project are:
bubblewrap >= 0.4.0python >= 3.6
Additionally, the built-in stages require:
bash >= 5.0coreutils >= 8.31curl >= 7.68qemu-img >= 4.2.0rpm >= 4.15tar >= 1.32util-linux >= 235skopeo
At build-time, the following software is required:
python-docutils >= 0.13pkg-config >= 0.29
Testing requires additional software:
pytest
Install
Installing osbuild requires to not only install the osbuild module, but also
additional artifacts such as tools (i.e: osbuild-mpp) sources, stages, schemas
and SELinux policies.
For this reason, doing an installation from source is not trivial and the easier way to install it is to create the set of RPMs that contain all these components.
This can be done with the rpm make target, i.e:
make rpm
A set of RPMs will be created in the ./rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/ directory and can
be installed in the system using the distribution package manager, i.e:
sudo dnf install ./rpmbuild/RPMS/noarch/*.rpm
