| 2022-12-10 | install: 'umount-cow-store' retries upon EBUSY....Possibly fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/59884>.
* gnu/build/install.scm (umount*): New procedure.
(unmount-cow-store): Use it instead of 'umount'.

| 2022-11-15 | install: Validate symlink target in evaluate-populate-directive....* gnu/build/install.scm (evaluate-populate-directive): By default, error when
the target of a symlink doesn't exist. Always ensure TARGET ends with "/".
(populate-root-file-system): Call evaluate-populate-directive with
#:error-on-dangling-symlink #t and add comment.

| 2020-12-15 | store-copy: 'populate-store' can optionally deduplicate files....Until now deduplication was performed as an additional pass after
copying files, which involve re-traversing all the files that had just
been copied.
* guix/store/deduplication.scm (copy-file/deduplicate): New procedure.
* tests/store-deduplication.scm ("copy-file/deduplicate"): New test.
* guix/build/store-copy.scm (populate-store): Add #:deduplicate?
parameter and honor it.
* tests/gexp.scm ("gexp->derivation, store copy"): Pass #:deduplicate? #f
to 'populate-store'.
* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): Pass #:deduplicate?
to 'populate-store'. Pass #:deduplicate? #f to 'register-closure'.
* gnu/build/vm.scm (root-partition-initializer): Likewise.
* gnu/build/install.scm (populate-single-profile-directory): Pass
#:deduplicate? #f to 'populate-store'.
* gnu/build/linux-initrd.scm (build-initrd): Likewise.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (self-contained-tarball)[import-module?]: New
procedure.
[build]: Pass it as an argument to 'source-module-closure'.
* guix/scripts/pack.scm (squashfs-image)[build]: Wrap in
'with-extensions'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd)[import-module?]: New
procedure.
[builder]: Pass it to 'source-module-closure'.
* gnu/system/install.scm (cow-store-service-type)[import-module?]: New
procedure. Pass it to 'source-module-closure'.

| 2020-09-02 | install: Factorize cow-store procedure....Move the cow-store procedure from the service declaration in (gnu system
install) to (gnu build install), so that it can be called from within a
different context than Shepherd.
* gnu/build/install.scm (mount-cow-store, unmount-cow-store): New procedures.
* gnu/system/install.scm (make-cow-store): Remove it,
(cow-store-service-type): adapt it accordingly.

| 2020-05-05 | Merge branch 'master' into core-updates | Marius Bakke |
| 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.
* gnu/image.scm: New file.
* gnu/system/image.scm: New file.
* gnu/build/image: New file.
* gnu/local.mk: Add them.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image): Rename to system-disk-image-in-vm.
* gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Adapt to new API.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Ditto.

| 2020-05-05 | build: install: Do not set store GID....There's no need to set the store GID as is will be done by the guix-daemon,
with the following snippet:
if (chown(chrootStoreDir.c_str(), 0, buildUser.getGID()) == -1)
throw SysError(format("cannot change ownership of ‘%1%’") % chrootStoreDir);
* gnu/build/install.scm (directives): Do not set store GID.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-05-05 | build: install: Ignore chown exceptions....Changing ownership may require root permissions. As image can now be generated
without root permissions (no VM involved), ignore those exceptions.
* gnu/build/install.scm (evaluate-populate-directive): Ignore chown
exceptions.
| Mathieu Othacehe |
| 2020-04-11 | install: 'populate-root-file-system' can be passed extra directives....* gnu/build/install.scm (evaluate-populate-directive): Handle 'file'
directives.
(populate-root-file-system): Add #:extras parameter and honor it.
