2023-06-22Merge qemu-append into mainHelmut Grohne
2023-06-20debvm-run: fix local emulation of set -exHelmut Grohne
Should be using stderr. Fixes: 7d0b160531d6 ("debvm-run: replace shell process with qemu process")
2023-06-19Merge branch 'qemu8exp' into 'main'Helmut Grohne
bin/debvm-run: qemu provides symlinks for qemu-system- starting with 1:8.0~rc4+dfsg-2 See merge request helmutg/debvm!31
2023-06-19debvm-run: match on DEB_HOTS_ARCH_CPU rather than DEB_HOST_ARCHHelmut Grohne
This way we loose unnecessary detail such as libc, kernel and abi. For one thing this simplifies the arm* match. For another, this makes us stop think about arm64ilp32 or x32.
2023-06-19gitlab-ci: copy dpkg-dev dependencyHelmut Grohne
Fixes: 1c98a5b3b36f ("bin/debvm-run: qemu (>> 1:8.0) provides symlinks for qemu-system-${debarch} as well as qemu-system-any")
2023-06-19debvm-run: make shellcheck happyHelmut Grohne
Fixes: 1c98a5b3b36f ("bin/debvm-run: qemu (>> 1:8.0) provides symlinks for qemu-system-${debarch} as well as qemu-system-any")

2023-06-19debvm-run: avoid hard coding fds for kernel and initrdHelmut Grohne
qemu makes heavy use of fd passing, so we better avoid user-passed fds.
2023-06-19debvm-run: replace shell process with qemu processHelmut Grohne
We need the intermediate shell process to clean the temporary files with the kernel and the initrd - unless we delete them before running qemu. This method should help with killing a qemu e.g. using a timeout.
2023-06-19gitlab-ci: register binfmts againHelmut Grohne
2023-06-09autologin: call setterm --resize only when supportedHelmut Grohne
2023-06-09the argument to setterm is --resize, not -resizeHelmut Grohne
2023-06-07debvm-run: add an --append optionHelmut Grohne
Unlike qemu's -append, it has append semantics both to repeated use and to internal defaults.
2023-06-07mark autopkgtests as flaky for nowHelmut Grohne
Closes: #1036932
2023-04-27debvm-create: recognize finit as an init systemHelmut Grohne
2023-03-30debvm-run: do not apply pauth-impdef=on to arm32Helmut Grohne
I really should have tested this part, but CI did. Fixes: 954ba600ffb7 ("debvm-run: massively speed up tcg emulation of arm cpus")
2023-03-29debvm-run: massively speed up tcg emulation of arm cpusHelmut Grohne
pauth emulation is very intensive on the CPU and thus there is a non-cryptographic alternative that provides a speedup of 3 to 4. https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/system/arm/cpu-features.html#tcg-vcpu-features Suggested-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Reported-by: Emanuele Rocca <ema@debian.org> Tested-by: Emanuele Rocca <ema@debian.org> Closes: #1033643
2023-03-27tests: stretch also moved to archive.debian.orgHelmut Grohne
2023-03-23tests: jessie has moved to archive.debian.orgHelmut Grohne

2023-03-19debvm-waitssh: improve comment about character rangesHelmut Grohne
Reported-by: Jakub Wilk <jwilk@debian.org>
2023-03-11debvm-run: --graphical should not require an argumentHelmut Grohne
2023-03-06debvm-create: autodetect size of serial consolesHelmut Grohne
We now extend /etc/profile to invoke setterm -resize when detecting an interactive login on a serial console. This should fix 90% of wrongly sized serial consoles.
2023-03-06drop workaround for kernel bug #1029270Helmut Grohne
2023-03-06debvm-create: deprecate and hide the -a optionHelmut Grohne
At this point, we only forward -a to mmdebstrap. It's not actually that helpful to have this option on both levels, so just keep it on the mmdebstrap level.
2023-03-06support a mips64el kernel in a mipsel image via multiarchHelmut Grohne
Reported-by: Fabian Gruenbichler
2023-03-05debvm-create: extend examples in the manual pageHelmut Grohne
2023-03-05debvm-run: always use virtio input devices for graphical modeHelmut Grohne
These clearly benefit the amd64 case as well. Experience with the virtio gpu is not as clear cut as it may crash qemu.
2023-03-02debvm-run: be more explicit about graphics and cloud kernelsHelmut Grohne
Reported-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2023-03-02debvm-run: improve graphical experience on !x86Arnd Bergmann
2023-02-28upload 0.2.9 to unstableHelmut Grohne
2023-02-23debvm-create: also support --initsystem=busyboxHelmut Grohne
Reported-by: Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues <josch@debian.org>
2023-02-23debvm-create: also support --initsystem=runitHelmut Grohne
2023-02-23debvm-create: do not fsckHelmut Grohne
Asking for a fsck pass in fstab is not what we want. Requiring fsck makes sysvinit fail when fsck.ext4 is missing. Without that pass, it happily boots without e2fsprogs. Link: https://bugs.debian.org/1028267 Thanks: Thorsten Glaster <t.glaser@tarent.de>
2023-02-20debvm-create: add --initsystem optionHelmut Grohne
This option allows changing the init system. The notable addition is sysv.
2023-02-20debvm-create: fix graphical sysv autologinHelmut Grohne
2023-02-20debvm-create: extend autologin hook to work with sysvinitHelmut Grohne
2023-02-20debvm-create: avoid failing when we install no passwdHelmut Grohne
2023-02-10upload 0.2.8 to unstable: more autopkgtest fixingHelmut Grohne
2023-02-09autopkgtest: improve unprivieleged unshare conditionHelmut Grohne
Thanks to Johannes Schauer for trying it on debci and seeing that it properly tests the environment.
2023-02-08autopkgtests: drop versioned qemu dependencyHelmut Grohne
Since qemu-kvm is virtual, it doesn't have a version and we cannot depend on it like that. Rather than revert back to qemu-system-misc (which would defeat the purpose), just drop the dependency as testing has a fixed version now. Thanks to Jochen Sprickerhof for explaining the cause of badpkg.
2023-02-05upload 0.2.7 to unstable: autopkgtest without fakechrootHelmut Grohne
2023-02-05debvm-create: fix resizing of output imageHelmut Grohne
resize2fs -b will not actually perform a resize. Rather, it will truncate the file to the filesystem length, reversing the earlier truncate call. Thus we need second resize2fs call to change the size of the filesystem. Fixes: 09bcaa8fe901 ("debvm-create: make the ext4 look more like ext4")
2023-02-05debvm-create: add --skip=initsystemHelmut Grohne
Closes: #1030254
2023-02-05debvm-create: install systemd-sysv rather than initHelmut Grohne
We actually expect systemd in the network configuration. Be more honest about this.
2023-02-05debian: autopkgtest: do away with fakerootHelmut Grohne
Use two tests. One in --mode=root and another skippable one in --mode=unshare. The latter will likely be skipped on Debian infrastructure.
2023-02-03Merge branch tar-output into mainHelmut Grohne
Closes: !29
2023-02-03debvm-create: update documentation for --skip=ext4Helmut Grohne
2023-02-02debvm-create: Output image in tar format if step "ext4" is skippedGioele Barabucci
Outputting the image in tar format breaks interoperability with `debvm-run`, but makes it easier to inspect, convert or perform additional modifications of the generated image.
