2018-02-24Simplify bootstrapping of foreign architectures with qemu-debootstrapRohan Garg
We already require qemu-user-static for this case, we might as well rely on the qemu-debootstrap script that this package provides. Closes: #847919
2018-02-24Run mksquashfs with nice -n 19 to not overload the systemRaphaël Hertzog
Machines tend to become unresponsive during the mksquashfs step. Avoid this by lowering the priority of the process. Thanks: Ronny Standtke for the patch. Closes: #867539

2018-02-23Fix build with local offline mirrorsLuca Boccassi
Commit a15b579652e64 (#775989) dropped an early exit from the chroot_archives remove step in case the parent mirror chroot and binary parameters are the same and introduced a regression, as with the following live-build now fails when the parent mirror is using a file:/ local apt repository (for example when the build worker is offline and uses a pre-built cache of packages). Example config: lb config --mirror-bootstrap "file:/pkgs" \ --mirror-chroot "file:/pkgs/" \ --mirror-binary "file:/pkgs" \ --parent-mirror-bootstrap "file:/pkgs" \ --parent-mirror-chroot "file:/pkgs/" \ --parent-mirror-binary "file:/pkgs" \ ... with /pkgs being a directory with the packages for the installation and the apt metadata (Packages/Sources/Release). The problem is that, with such a setup, the /pkgs directory is bind mounted inside the chroot as an optimisation in the install step, and umounted as one of the first actions in the remove step for chroot_archives. Before that fix, the script terminated immediately. But now it progresses and at the end it tries to run apt update inside the chroot which will fail since the repository directory has been umounted, and thus the packages and the apt metadata are no longer available, while still being listed in /etc/apt/sources.list. The proposed solution is to umount the local directory at the end of the remove step, rather than at the beginning. Closes: #891206

As done by the linux source package since its version 4.4.
2017-09-01Handle hardlinks in binary_hddMatthijs Kooijman
To generate an hdd image, binary_hdd first estimates the needed size of the image using du. By default, when du finds multiple hardlinked copies of a file, it counts them only once. However, when the target filesystem is FAT, which does not support hardlinks, these files will take up more space when finally copying the contents, breaking the build: P: Copying binary contents into image... cp: error writing 'chroot/binary.tmp/live/initrd.img-4.9.0-3-amd64': No space left on device cp: error writing 'chroot/binary.tmp/efi/boot/bootx64.efi': No space left on device cp: error writing 'chroot/binary.tmp/efi/boot/bootia32.efi': No space left on device cp: cannot create directory 'chroot/binary.tmp/boot/grub': No space left on device cp: cannot create directory 'chroot/binary.tmp/isolinux': No space left on device To fix this, pass --count-links to du when the target is FAT, to make the space estimation correct. This problem is exposed by commit 9c974b26b (Instead of renaming kernel for syslinux, create hardlinks), which might need to be separately fixed (to not waste space on FAT targets), but binary_hdd should at least handle hardlinks more gracefully.

2017-09-01Check all dependencies independent of LB_BUILD_WITH_CHROOTMatthijs Kooijman
Since commit fdc9250bc (Changing package dependency checks within chroot to work outside as well), Check_package automatically checks for LB_BUILD_WITH_CHROOT and works inside as well as outside of the chroot, so no need to check LB_BUILD_WITH_CHROOT before calling them. Install_package and Remove_package are just a no-op when building without chroot, so they can also be called unconditionally. Restore_cache and Save_cache do not check LB_BUILD_WITH_CHROOT but it it should not hurt to call them when not needed (which already happened in some cases). This commit makes all Check_package calls unconditional on LB_BUILD_WITH_CHROOT. For binary_syslinux, this fixes the check (which used outdated paths outside the chroot since 7b6dfd9d1), for binary_grub-efi, binary_package-lists and chroot_package-lists this simplifies the code (but also causes the check to become package-based instead of file-based on apt-based systems), and for binary_loadlin and binary_win32-loader this adds the check outside the chroot which was previously missing.
2017-09-01Error out when needed packages are missing on the hostMatthijs Kooijman
Previously, Check_package would only show an error when host packages are missing on a non-apt system. On apt system, the packages would be added to _LB_PACKAGES, which causes them to be installed in the chroot, not in the host (or not at all if Install_package is not called). This behaviour could break the build. This applies to either packages that must be present in the host (as checked with `Check_package host ...`), as well as packages that can be either in the chroot or host (as checked with `Check_package chroot`) when LB_BUILD_WITH_CHROOT=false.
2017-09-01Pass --partscan to losetupMatthijs Kooijman
Recent versions of Linux, parted or some other bit of software cause partition devices, like /dev/loop0p1 to be created when running parted mkpart. However, these devices are not cleaned up when running losetup -d to remove /dev/loop0 later, so they linger around and confuse mkfs (which refuses to make a filesystem, thinking there are partitions): mkfs.fat 4.1 (2017-01-24) mkfs.vfat: Partitions or virtual mappings on device '/dev/loop0', not making filesystem (use -I to override) To prevent this behaviour, pass --partscan to losetup when adding a new partition, to clean up any lingering partitions. It seems losetup does not accept --partscan when deleting a loop device, to clean up at that point, but since binary_hdd mounts the partition last, there should not be any lingering partition devices after live-build is done. The --partscan option is available since util-linux 2.21 (released in 2012), so it should be fairly safe to pass it unconditionally.
