Follow-up for 1cdbff1c84.
After the commit 1cdbff1c84, each entry .conf contains
redundant slash like the following:
```
$ cat xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-5.9.8-200.fc33.x86_64.conf
title Fedora 33 (Thirty Three)
version 5.9.8-200.fc33.x86_64
machine-id xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
options root=/dev/nvme0n1p2 ro rootflags=subvol=system/fedora selinux=0 audit=0
linux //xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/5.9.8-200.fc33.x86_64/linux
initrd //xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/5.9.8-200.fc33.x86_64/initrd
```
This is useful for development where overwriting files out side
the configured prefix will affect the host as well as stateless
systems such as NixOS that don't let packages install to /etc but handle
configuration on their own.
Alternative to https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/17501
tested with:
$ mkdir inst build && cd build
$ meson \
-Dcreate-log-dirs=false \
-Dsysvrcnd-path=$(realpath ../inst)/etc/rc.d \
-Dsysvinit-path=$(realpath ../inst)/etc/init.d \
-Drootprefix=$(realpath ../inst) \
-Dinstall-sysconfdir=false \
--prefix=$(realpath ../inst) ..
$ ninja install
"Linux" conflicts /efi/Linux when /efi is the install location.
/efi/Linux is already reserved for unified kernel images so we can't use
it for type #1 images. Instead, we use "Default".
Similarly to "setup" vs. "set up", "fallback" is a noun, and "fall back"
is the verb. (This is pretty clear when we construct a sentence in the
present continous: "we are falling back" not "we are fallbacking").
I happen to have a machine where /boot is not a separate mountpoint,
but rather just a directory under /. After upgrade to recent Fedora,
I found out that grub2 can't find any new kernels.
This happens because loadentry script generates kernel and initrd file
paths relative to /boot, while grub2 expects path to be relative to the
root of filesystem on which they are residing.
This commit fixes this issue by using stat's %m to find the mount point
of a partition holding the images, and using it as a prefix to be
removed from ENTRY_DIR_ABS.
Note that %m for stat requires coreutils 8.6, released in Oct 2010.

This commit introduces new meson build option "kernel-install" to prevent kernel-install from building if the user
sets the added option as "false".

As in 2a5fcfae02
and in 3e67e5c992
using /usr/bin/env allows bash to be looked up in PATH
rather than being hard-coded.
As with the previous changes the same arguments apply
- distributions have scripts to rewrite shebangs on installation and
they know what locations to rely on.
- For tests/compilation we should rather rely on the user to have setup
there PATH correctly.
In particular this makes testing from git easier on NixOS where do not provide
/bin/bash to improve compose-ability.
When booting with Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-30-20190411.n.0.iso,
/proc/cmdline is empty (libvirt, qemu host with bios, not sure if that
matters), after installation to disk, anaconda would "crash" in kernel-core
%posttrans, after calling kernel-install, because dracut would fail
with
> Could not determine the kernel command line parameters.
> Please specify the kernel command line in /etc/kernel/cmdline!
I guess it's legitimate, even if unusual, to have no cmdline parameters.
Two changes are done in this patch:
1. do not fail if the cmdline is empty.
2. if /usr/lib/kernel/cmdline or /etc/kernel/cmdline are present, but
empty, ignore /proc/cmdline. If there's explicit configuration to
have empty cmdline, don't ignore it.
The same change was done in dracut:
https://github.com/dracutdevs/dracut/pull/561.
Things are currently fairly ugly in Fedora: we create $BOOT/$MACHINE_ID/$KERNEL_VERSION/,
and then 20-grub.install that is installed by grub2-common.rpm wants to remove that
directory before 50-dracut.install get a chance to run. 50-dracut.install
checks for the presence of that directory to decide where to install the
kernel. So let's make the creation of the directory conditional. Previous
commit changes bootctl install to create $BOOT/$MACHINE_ID, and this commit
makes kernel-install not create it. In effect, the entry directory will only be
created if 'bootctl install' or something else created the parent directory.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1648907
"BOOT" is misleading, because it sounds like this refers to /boot or $BOOT,
when in fact it refers to some subdirectory. Those variable names are purely
interal, so we can change them. $BOOT_DIR_ABS was used in NEWS, but it should
not be (because it is an internal detail), so the old NEWS entry is reworded to
use "entry directory".
This makes it easier to see what is going on. Documentation for
--verbose and --help is added to the man page. Our plugins are updated
to also log a bit.
* kernel-install: fix initrd when called as installkernel
Running make install from the kernel runs e.g.:
installkernel 4.20.5 arch/x86/boot/bzImage System.map "/boot"
Since 0912c0b80e this would
cal 90-loaderentry.install with those arguments:
add 4.20.5 /boot/... arch/x86/boot/bzImage System.map "/boot"
The two last arguments would then be handled as the initrd files.
As System.map exists in current directory but not in /boot/...
it would get copied there, and used as initrd intead of the initrd
which has been generated by dracut.
With this change, nothing changes when kernel-install is called
directly, but when it's called as installkernel, we now pass
thos arguments to 90-loaderentry.install:
add 4.20.5 /boot/... arch/x86/boot/bzImage initrd
initrd is thus detected as the file to use for the initrd, and as it
exists, nothing is copied over and the initrd line generated is
consistent with what one would expect
* kernel-install: fix dracut initrd detection when called directly
This brings back the systemd 240 behaviour when called directly too
* kernel-install: unify initrd fallback
* kernel-install: move initrd fallback handling to 90-loaderentry.install
* kernel-install: move initrd fallback just before creating loader entry
Instead of having just a single INITRD field, add support for all
additional parameters being INITRD fields in order.

The current support in kernel-install for initrd images doesn't copy
over the initrd file or allow a means for it to be specified (it
requires a specific filename in a particular directory).
This patchset adds support for (optionally) providing the name of
initial ramdisk file to copied over and used by kernel-install.
This makes two changes:
1. When called for "remove" any drop-ins with "+" suffix are removed
too, so that the logic works for entries with boot counting enabled
too and we don't lose track of configuration snippets created that
way.
2. When called for "add" we optionally generate a "+" suffix, based on
the data in /etc/kernel/tries if it exists.
This basically means after "echo 5 > /etc/kernel/tries" any installed
kernels will automatically set up for 5 boot tries before older
kernels will be tried.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
The script shouldn't rely on a previous script exiting with a status code
that prevents it to be executed. Instead, should check if the destination
directory for the BLS kernel image exists and exit otherwise.
So far I avoided adding license headers to meson files, but they are pretty
big and important and should carry license headers like everything else.
I added my own copyright, even though other people modified those files too.
But this is mostly symbolic, so I hope that's OK.
Some .install plugins does not require that machine ID is set such as
20-grubby.install for Fedora and 50-depmod.install.
To support such plugins to run without valid machine-id, this commit
makes the following change:
* if /etc/machine-id is missing or empty, create temporary directory
and set its path to BOOT_DIR_ABS,
* run the .install helpers with KERNEL_INSTALL_MACHINE_ID environment
variable that'd be empty if /etc/machine-id is missing or empty.
This may be useful for installing kernel for e.g. stateless systems
which initialize machine-id while booting the systems.
The indentation for emacs'es meson-mode is added .dir-locals.
All files are reindented automatically, using the lasest meson-mode from git.
Indentation should now be fairly consistent.
This is the equivalent of $(INSTALL_DIRS) and install-touch-usr-hook.
I did not bother to create the directories into which we install files,
since they will be created anyway.
v2:
- remove bashism
It's crucial that we can build systemd using VS2010!
... er, wait, no, that's not the official reason. We need to shed old systems
by requring python 3! Oh, no, it's something else. Maybe we need to throw out
345 years of knowlege accumulated in autotools? Whatever, this new thing is
cool and shiny, let's use it.
This is not complete, I'm throwing it out here for your amusement and critique.
- rules for sd-boot are missing. Those might be quite complicated.
- rules for tests are missing too. Those are probably quite simple and
repetitive, but there's lots of them.
- it's likely that I didn't get all the conditions right, I only tested "full"
compilation where most deps are provided and nothing is disabled.
- busname.target and all .busname units are skipped on purpose.
Otherwise, installation into $DESTDIR has the same list of files and the
autoconf install, except for .la files.
It'd be great if people had a careful look at all the library linking options.
I added stuff until things compiled, and in the end there's much less linking
then in the old system. But it seems that there's still a lot of unnecessary
deps.
meson has a `shared_module` statement, which sounds like something appropriate
for our nss and pam modules. Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work. For the
nss modules, we need an .so version of '2', but `shared_module` disallows the
version argument. For the pam module, it also didn't work, I forgot the reason.
The handling of .m4 and .in and .m4.in files is rather awkward. It's likely
that this could be simplified. If make support is ever dropped, I think it'd
make sense to switch to a different templating system so that two different
languages and not required, which would make everything simpler yet.
v2:
- use get_pkgconfig_variable
- use sh not bash
- use add_project_arguments
v3:
- drop required:true and fix progs/prog typo
v4:
- use find_library('bz2')
- add TTY_GID definition
- define __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__
- use join_paths(prefix, ...) is used on all paths to make them all absolute
v5:
- replace all declare_dependency's with []
- add more conf.get guards around optional components
v6:
- drop -pipe, -Wall which are the default in meson
- use compiler.has_function() and compiler.has_header_symbol instead of the
hand-rolled checks.
- fix duplication in 'liblibsystemd' library name
- use the right .sym file for pam_systemd
- rename 'compiler' to 'cc': shorter, and more idiomatic.
v7:
- use ENABLE_ENVIRONMENT_D not HAVE_ENVIRONMENT_D
- rename prefix to prefixdir, rootprefix to rootprefixdir
("prefix" is too common of a name and too easy to overwrite by mistake)
- wrap more stuff with conf.get('ENABLE...') == 1
- use rootprefix=='/' and rootbindir as install_dir, to fix paths under
split-usr==true.
v8:
- use .split() also for src/coredump. Now everything is consistent ;)
- add rootlibdir option and use it on the libraries that require it
v9:
- indentation
v10:
- fix check for qrencode and libaudit
v11:
- unify handling of executable paths, provide options for all progs
This makes the meson build behave slightly differently than the
autoconf-based one, because we always first try to find the executable in the
filesystem, and fall back to the default. I think different handling of
loadkeys, setfont, and telinit was just a historical accident.
In addition to checking in $PATH, also check /usr/sbin/, /sbin for programs.
In Fedora $PATH includes /usr/sbin, (and /sbin is is a symlink to /usr/sbin),
but in Debian, those directories are not included in the path.
C.f. https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1576.
- call all the options 'xxx-path' for clarity.
- sort man/rules/meson.build properly so it's stable
bash implements process substitution using /dev/fd/N (this is documented
in man bash). We'd like kernel-install to work in chrooted RPM
scriptlets without /dev.
We can use here-strings instead. bash uses temporary files to implement
those.
Will be used by rpm-ostree (and likely lorax) to suppress
RPM->kernel->%posttrans->dracut runs, and basically everything
else this script is doing.
I'll also likely change the `kernel.spec` to respect this as well.
With this change kernel-install will now first look for an existing kernel
installation in /efi, /boot and /boot/efi. If none is found, /efi is used if it
is a mount point, otherwise /boot/efi if it is one. If nothing of that worked
/boot is used without further checking.
This means /boot should be the default unless something was installed before or
something else was explicitly mounted.
A recent commit (2f3a215) changed the parsing of /proc/cmdline to use a
shell array. Unfortunately, this introduced a bug: "read -ar line"
populates the shell variable $r, not $line. This breaks installation of
new loader entries:
# kernel-install add 3.17.1-304.fc21.x86_64 \
/boot/vmlinuz-3.17.1-304.fc21.x86_64
Could not determine the kernel command line parameters.
Please specify the kernel command line in /etc/kernel/cmdline!
This commit alters the read command to correctly populate the $line
array instead.
If /etc/kernel/cmdline is missing or empty, we read /proc/cmdline and
want to filter out the initrd line. Due to a bug, the whole contents was
filtered out.
The file should have been in /usr/lib/ in the first place, since it
describes the OS container in /usr (and not the configuration in /etc),
hence, let's support os-release files in /usr/lib as fallback if no
version in /etc exists, following the usual override logic.
A prior commit already enabled tmpfiles to create /etc/os-release as a
symlink to /usr/lib/os-release should it be missing, thus providing nice
compatibility with applications only checking in /etc.
While it's probably a good idea if all apps check both locations via a
fallback logic, it is only necessary in the early boot process, as long
as the /etc/os-release symlink has not been restored, in case we boot
with an empty /etc.
