Previously we had hard coded paths in /sbin for the udevadm and modprobe
programs invoked by AltCloud. Its more flexible to expect the PATH to
be set correctly.
DataSourceOVF: use util.find_devs_with(TYPE=iso9660)
DataSourceOVF attempts to find iso files via walking os.listdir('/dev/')
which is far too wide. This approach is too invasive and can sometimes
race with systemd attempting to fsck and mount devices.
Instead, utilize cloudinit.util.find_devs_with to filter devices by
criteria (which uses blkid under the covers). This results in fewer
attempts to mount block devices which do not contain iso filesystems.
Unittest changes include:
- cloudinit.tests.helpers; introduce add_patch() helper
- Add unittest coverage for DataSourceOVF use of transport_iso9660
suse: updates to templates to support openSUSE and SLES.
Things done here:
- identify 'suse' as a variant in util.system_info and
also tools/render-cloudcfg.
- update systemd and cloud.cfg templates for suse specific changes.
suse: Copy sysvinit files from redhat with slight changes.
Here we commit the SuSE provided sysvinit scripts. They are very similar
to those in redhat/ directory. They differ in small but important ways.
Rather than build a template system here we will just accept the copy
and paste. sysvinit in both RedHat and SuSE is EOL, so we do not
expect any real maintenance cost here.
Create a copy of each modules schema attribute when generating sphinx docs
to avoid altering the actual module dict in memory. This avoids illegible
rendering of module examples and distros where each character of a list
was represented on a separate line by itself.
