With that, the Dockerfile modifications[0] currently done externally
are done now here. That means that the created rootfs tarball can be
directly used within a Dockerfile to create a container from scratch:
FROM scratch
ADD livecd.ubuntu-oci.rootfs.tar.gz /
CMD ["/bin/bash"]
[0]

(cherry picked from commit a81972a58b)
This is a copy of the ubuntu-base project.
Currently ubuntu-base is used as a base for the docker/OCI container
images. The rootfs tarball that is created with ubuntu-base is
published under [0]. That tarball is used in the FROM statement of the
Dockerfile as base and then a couple of modifications are done inside
of the Dockerfile[1].
The ubuntu-oci project will include the changes that are currently
done in the Dockerfile. With that:
1) a Dockerfile using that tarball will be just a 2 line thing:
FROM scratch
ADD ubuntu-hirsute-core-cloudimg-amd64-root.tar.gz /
CMD ["/bin/bash"]
2) Ubuntu has the full control about the build process of the
docker/OCI container. No external sources (like [1]) need to be
modified anymore.
3) Ubuntu can publish containers without depending on the official
dockerhub containers[2]. Currently the containers for the AWS ECR
registry[3] use as a base[4] the official dockerhub containers. That's
no longer needed because a container just needs a Dockerfile described
in 1)
When the ubuntu-oci project has the modifications from [1] included,
we'll also update [1] to use the ubuntu-oci rootfs tarball as a base
and drop the modifications done at [1].
Note: Creating a new ubuntu-oci project instead of using ubuntu-base
will make sure that we don't break users who are currently using
ubuntu-base rootfs tarballs for doing their own thing.

(cherry picked from commit ac4a95b931)
Builds in LP with the Xenial kernel were happy with the recursive mount of
/sys inside the chroot while performing snap-preseeding but autopkgtests
with the groovy kernel failed. With the groovy kernel the build was
unable to unmount sys/kernel/slab/*/cgroup/* (Operation not permitted).
This patch mounts /sys and /sys/kernel/security in the chroot in the
same way we've added for binary hooks. This provides the paths under
/sys needed for snap-preseed while avoiding issues unmounting other
paths.
(cherry picked from commit 84397b5098)
The snap-preseed command can do a number of things during the build
that are currently performed at first boot (apparmor profiles, systemd
unit generation, etc). This patch adds a call to reset the seeding and
apply these optimizations when adding a seeded snap. As a prerequisite
to calling snap-preseed we need to make /dev/mem available as well as
mounts from the host to perform this work, so those are also added here.
(cherry picked from commit 1ca11c9795)
When we encounter a failure in 'lb binary' the launchpad builders can
only surface the build output from stdout. If the binary hook failure
implicates the archive we can not determine fault without the apt
proxy log. This patch will dump the proxy log to stdout to aid in
debugging these failures.
When getting the list of snaps to include on an image via germinate, we
process the snaps in alphabetical order. Currently we seed several
packages `gnome-foo` and also `gtk-common-themes`, the default provider
of `gtk-3-themes`. Since `gtk-common-themes` is alphabetically after
`gnome-foo`, the `seed.yaml` we generate is invalid when we are part way
through generating.
What we really care about, though, is not that the `seed.yaml` is always
valid at every step, but it is that it is valid at the *end* of seeding.
So for the germinate case, let's defer validation to happen once at the
end. Other callsites of `snap_preseed`, where callers are careful to
seed snaps in the right order, are unaffected by this.
The livecd.ubuntu-cpc.ext4 that is present in each build (plus kernel
and initrd) are not renamed from /build/binary/boot/filsystem.ext4
and friends until after the binary hooks are run, so this patch moves
from trying to perform this cleanup in a binary hook. Now the cleanup
will be run at the end of live-build/binary for the ubuntu-cpc project.
This is another thing that goes unused when there is no human console user
(and we already don't have the locales themselves present on a minimal
image).

This avoids us having apt cache files in the final image.
For auto/build, we move the call to clean_debian_chroot to the end,
this also takes care of the caches generated by apt-get update
in case of a preinstalled-pool.
For layered, it's just a simple swap of the lines.
LP: #1826377
grub-probe must not be called during image build so grub is diverted. In
multilayer image the chroot is always the tip of the filesystem, so we
divert grub at the beginning of each pass and undivdert it as the end.
For flat images, it's diverted just before building the chroot and
undiverted after.
UbuntuStudio image builds have recently begun failing as a result of adding a
grub theme customization to their flavor, which they then try to apply by
running update-grub from their maintainer scripts. This fails with:
Setting up plymouth-theme-ubuntustudio (0.57) ...
update-alternatives: using /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ubuntustudio-logo/ubuntustudio-logo.plymouth to provide /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth (default.plymouth) in auto mode
update-alternatives: using /usr/share/plymouth/themes/ubuntustudio-text/ubuntustudio-text.plymouth to provide /usr/share/plymouth/themes/text.plymouth (text.plymouth) in auto mode
update-initramfs: diverted by livecd-rootfs (will be called later)
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?).
dpkg: error processing package plymouth-theme-ubuntustudio (--configure):
installed plymouth-theme-ubuntustudio package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Packages providing grub themes should be able to call update-grub from their
maintainer scripts, and they should be able to be installed under
livecd-rootfs. It's surprising to me that this hasn't been a problem before
now for any flavors.
We know that grub-probe should not be called as part of an image build, so
just use our standard helper function to divert it before running the chroot
stage and undivert it after.
When the REPO_SNAPSHOT_STAMP variable is set, the auto/build script will attempt
to launch a transparent HTTP proxy on port 8080, and insert an iptables rule to
redirect all outgoing HTTP requests to this proxy.
The proxy, contained in the `magic-proxy` Python script, examines each request
and silently overrides those pointing to InRelease files or files that are
listed in InRelease files. It will instead provide the contents of the requested
file as it was at REPO_SNAPSHOT_STAMP, by downloading the corresponding asset
"by hash".
Fixed prefix for passes to not conflict with global prefix
Set layer to none for layer without language packs
Copy size and manifest to the target directory
Make sure the diff always diffes existing manifests
Default Ubuntu desktop to the layered format
Remove the requirement on setting IMAGEFORMAT to layered to build a
layered image and relies on PASSED instead.
