| 2023-10-29 | system: vm: Include the cirrus driver in the initrd....This is Ludo's suggestion at <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/36069#26>,
with an added guard against duplicates and a tweaked comment.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (virtualized-operating-system): Add "cirrus" to the
list of INITRD-MODULES.

| 2023-10-01 | system: vm: Remove unused variable....This is a followup to 05a9d1f378e2e13e8f759be926ea368358afc27c, which
removed its sole user.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (%linux-vm-file-systems): Remove.
(mapping->file-system): Add comment about “cache=loose”.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2022-12-06 | system: vm: Non-volatile 'run-vm.sh' creates a CoW image....Previously, copying the image would consume a lot of space and was
I/O-intensive, to the point that the marionette connection timeout of
20s could be reached when running tests like "docker-system".
* gnu/system/vm.scm (common-qemu-options): Pass 'format=' for each
'-drive' option.
(system-qemu-image/shared-store-script)[copy-image]: New variable.
[builder]: Use it when VOLATILE? is false.
| Ludovic Courtès |
| 2022-01-14 | system: vm: Change the writable image name....* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Change it.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2022-01-06 | system: vm: Restore default RAM size to 512MB....* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Restore it.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2021-12-23 | Remove VM generation dead-code....This code duplicates the (gnu system image) and (gnu build image) code. Using
VM for image generation is not needed, not portable and really slow. Remove
all the VM image generation code to make sure that only the image API is used.
* gnu/build/vm.scm: Remove it. Move the qemu-command procedure to ...
* gnu/build/marionette.scm: ... here.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Adapt it.
* tests/modules.scm: Ditto.
* gnu/tests/install.scm: Ditto.
* gnu/system/vm.scm: Adapt it and remove expression->derivation-in-linux-vm,
qemu-img, system-qemu-image/shared-store and system-docker-image procedures.
* doc/guix.texi (G-Expressions): Adapt it.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2021-12-23 | system: vm: Use the image API to generate QEMU images....Also add a volatile? argument to the virtual-machine record. When volatile? is
true generate a QEMU script that mounts an overlay on top of a read only
storage. When volatile? is false, use a persistent, read-write storage.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (common-qemu-options): Add a rw-image? argument to use a
persistent storage.
(system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Add a volatile? argument and honor
it. Use the image API to build the QEMU image.
(<virtual-machine>)[volatile?]: New field.
(virtual-machine-compiler): Pass the volatile? argument to the
system-qemu-image/shared-store-script procedure.

| 2021-12-05 | Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/master' into core-updates-frozen | Ricardo Wurmus |
| 2021-12-03 | system: vm: Remove the vga argument....* gnu/system/vm.scm (common-qemu-options): Remove the "-vga std" argument that
is the default since QEMU 2.2.
Suggested-by: Attila Lendvai <attila@lendvai.name>
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2021-12-03 | guix system vm: Add --no-graphic CLI argument....It configures QEMU to use the tty it was started in for IO (as opposed to
opening a separate graphical window). This enables copy-pasting and
scrollback. Exit QEMU with C-a x.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Also add the
'-nographic' QEMU argument when called with #:graphic? #false.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Propagate
the #:graphic? keyword arg.
(perform-action): Add and propagate the #:graphic? keyword arg.
(show-help): Add --no-graphic CLI arg.
(%options): Process the new --no-graphic CLI arg.
(process-action): Feed in the CLI arg through the #:graphic? keyword arg.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Add example to combine guix system and
invoking the vm start script into one command. Split the description of the
various options into separate paragraphs. Add a paragraph to describe
--no-graphic.

| 2021-11-20 | vm: <virtual-machine> defaults to using 'qemu-minimal'....'qemu-minimal' is enough for system tests, which is the main (only?) use
of <virtual-machine>.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (<virtual-machine>)[qemu]: Default to QEMU-MINIMAL.

| 2020-05-05 | image: Add a new API....Raw disk-images and ISO9660 images are created in a Qemu virtual machine. This
is quite fragile, very slow, and almost unusable without KVM.
For all these reasons, add support for host image generation. This implies the
use new image generation mechanisms.
- Raw disk images: images of partitions are created using tools such as mke2fs
and mkdosfs depending on the partition file-system type. The partition
images are then assembled into a final image using genimage.
- ISO9660 images: the ISO root directory is populated within the store. GNU
xorriso is then called on that directory, in the exact same way as this is
done in (gnu build vm) module.
Those mechanisms are built upon the new (gnu image) module.
