The ubuntu-core-installer image is an installer that installs ubuntu
core. The environment the installer runs in is similar to the server
installer but it has a source catalog entry that points to the model
created in ubuntu-core-installer/hooks/05-prepare-image.binary, which
subiquity knows how to install.
With current kernel we need to specify the SBI driver
for the early console to work.

The LXD snap is no longer seeded in any images since Noble+ so the LXD related unminimize logic in
./live-build/auto/build?h=ubuntu/noble and ./live-build/ubuntu-server/hooks/01-unminimize.chroot_early
is no longer required.
lxd-installer can remain installed.
For Ubuntu 24.04 and later cloud-init is included in desktop images. This is not applicable for Hyperv images so
we can disable cloud-init. This leaves the cloud-init package installed but disabled so users can still
use it if they want.
This is a documented way to disable cloud-init. See https://cloudinit.readthedocs.io/en/latest/howto/disable_cloud_init.html
A change in 8fb21808 also removed many of the dependencies that the hyperv images require.
This removal has been restored in this commit by adding them expliciltly in the hyperv hook.
We have not built Hyperv desktop images since Jammy and with the re-introduction of HyperV for Noble we have encountered build issues caused by refactoring and removals of code assumed to be redundant but the HyperV desktop images were actually using these code paths.
In bbedffe6 we split the building of cloud images and non cloud to using an ddisk-image-uefi.binary and disk-image-uefi-non-cloud.binary respectively. In e38264ca there was a change which meant that any attempt to build hyperv images would result in incorrect disk size and incorrect disk label.
This has been fixed by ensuring that the ubuntu:desktop-preinstalled $PROJECT:$SUBPROJECT matches and sets the correct disk size and correct disk label.
A change in 76d79466 changed the logic of how the image size for amd64 images were being set. This overrode the sizes set for the desktop images incorrectly.
This commit ensures that any desktop image being created uses the correct image size.
do_layered_desktop_image() is now the standard entry point for flavors using
ubuntu-desktop-bootstrap and handles minimal/standard/live layers in a
configurable and flavor-agnostic way to reduce code duplication.
Failing CPC tests show that the preseeded apparmor features don't
include policy:unconfined_restrictions for the 6.8 kernel. This
change adds the feature preseed with values based on a successfully
booted instance.

ubuntu/include.* are the master location for these files.
Copy them over for projects with similar needs, while skipping ones that
are incorrect.

Ubuntu MATE is switching to a layered image in preparation to
use ubuntu-desktop-provision. Luckily, their seed structure is
already well-structured for layering, so this is easily done.
This has become moot now that the code block has been
moved out from live-build/functions to live-build/auto/build
so passing the argument is not needed anymore.
Presence of this field helps in determining if the image is an
unminimized image, which then can be leveraged in the unminimize
script to easily determine the image type.
As part of addressing LP: #2054103 [1] an update to grub-pc added a feature to be able to ensure that grub-pc
installation can happen noninteractively on cloud images.
This change is equivalent to running
```
debconf-set-selections grub-pc grub-efi/cloud_style_installation boolean true
debconf-set-selections grub-pc grub-pc/cloud_style_installation boolean true
```
These were introduced optionally to determine the install device using
`grub-probe` dynamically instead of having to fill the `grub-pc/install-devices`
debconf entry.

There was a time historically where Launchpad buildd might have relied
on that behaviour, but this shouldn't be the case anymore as it sets
priority manually when building backports.
Meanwhile any other builds using buildd images (e.g. snapcraft)
shouldn't default to backports unless required. (lp: #2009871)

Per the comments, BASE_SEED was initially used to identify the seed in the
flavor to use for identifying preseeded snaps, and later was also used to
identify which "minimal-remove" seed to apply to an image.
The first usage is now obsolete after a refactor; we now correctly detect
snaps from any of the included seeds without needing an explicit
declaration.
The second usage only applies to installer images that are NOT using layered
squashfs, since for these images 'minimal' is a separate squashfs layer
rather than a list of packages to remove after the fact.
Refactor this code to eliminate pointless definitions of BASE_SEED and
define it only for the subset of flavors today that:
- have a 'minimal-remove' seed
- are not using layered squashfs.
The cloud-images logic is now special case for ubuntu-wsl to not require
ending with project_prefix. Readd it first, which will allow us to
ensure backward compability on cloud-images.ubuntu.com
Also Use Signed-By: /etc/apt/keyrings/preinstalled-pool.gpg and
make sure we only update from that .sources file as we did before.
This code may all be dead, who can say.
FIXME: We should figure out how to do an armored export of that key
and then embed it in the signed-by field instead of using a keyring
file.
Template is based on the specification with some rewording for
Ubuntu Pro as agreed.
v2:
- Enabled backports by default (I did not see that!)
- Enabled restricted, multiverse security updates
- Replaced tweaked with adjusted
v3:
- Insert an explanatory sources.list
LP: #2048129
The publisher for cloud-images.ubuntu.com expects that artefacts
finishes with: file_url.endswith(project_prefix + suffix).
Now that we integrate app_id to the image name, we need thus to put it
before project_prefix and not between project_prefix and suffix.

Microsoft offically support systemd now and our Pro service relies on
it. This option is enabled by default via our launcher (Windows-side) on
first run for quite a while.
Remve this file creation from it, don’t ship it in a package as the
file may be altered by the user to add additional options and ship it as
part of the rootfs.

On WSL, we have multiple applications with the same rootfs, but
different upgrade policy:
Ubuntu: should always track latest LTS and offer upgrade.
Ubuntu-<Version>: should never offer upgrade and will stick to Version
Ubuntu-Preview: current in development version.

If the previous if statement checking if PASSES_TO_LAYERS is true,
then the last return code be non-zero and a return statement with no
argument will return the error code of the if statement thus exiting
the script. This is not our intent. So we need to return 0 here when
layer name as already been registered
The unminimize script will try to install the lxd snap using the shim script
`/usr/sbin/lxd` from the lxd-installer package.
Previously `unminimize` was using `snap`
to install `lxd` directly which was being diverted by diverting the `snap` command.
This is no longer the case so we can remove `/usr/sbin/lxd` from the lxd-installer package
if it exists and then redirect any calls to `/usr/sbin/lxd` to `/bin/true`
This is a cherry pick forward port from Jammy livecd-rootfs version 2.765.37.

mount_disk_image function expects root partition to be at number 1. But
some images require the root partition to be at other some other number.
For example, EKS Anywhere images for bare metal are used with Tinkerbell
deployment with a default configuration that expects the root device to
be found at /dev/sda2. The knowledge of the root device path is needed
to modify certain files in the root filesystem (e.g. cloud-init configs)
for the machine to join Kubernetes cluster control plane.
The partition number can be changed in the hook by "sgidsk --transpose".
Allow the hook to use mount_disk_image with custom root partition number
by making it an optional third parameter that defaults to 1.
