One can call divert_grub; replace_kernel; undivert_grub. And
replace_kernel will call into force_boot_without_initramfs, which
under certain conditions can call divert_grub &
undivert_grub. Resulting in undivert_grub called twice in a row.
When undivert_grub is called twice in a row it wipes
systemd-detect-virt binary from disk, as the rm call is unguarded to
check that there is something to divert if systemd package is
installed. And if the systemd package is not installed, it does not
check that systemd-detect-virt file is in-fact what divert_grub has
created.
Add a guard to check that systemd-detect-virt is the placeholder one,
before removing it.

Do not use removable uefi bootloader path in the cloud-images by

Multipass on Mac OS X requires standalone kernel and initrd artifacts
to boot.
Also call update-initramfs on all installed kernels. We only have one
kernel installed, so we don't need to specify an explicit version.
Backport vmtools version in vmdk (LP: #1893898)
Backport
LP: #1893898 describes missing vmtools version from the vmdk headers.
The version should be added as ddb.toolsVersion = "2147483647" however
the sed was no longer replacing a ddb.comment field with the tools
version. Rather than subbing ddb.comment with toolsVersion, this commit
deletes ddb.comment (which the comment mentions could cause errors),
and adds the correct value. There was no visibility into the descriptor
during hook creation, so debug statements were added. This allows us to
quickly verify in the logs that bad statements are removed (the possibly
offending comments), as well as ensuring that the toolsVersion is added

Older version of vmdk-stream-converter has an incorrect header. The
original sed command replaced the incorrect "Description File" comment
with the correct "Disk DescriptorFile".
shim-signed depends on grub-efi-amd64-signed, which in turn has
alternative depends on either `grub-efi-amd64 | grub-pc`. However to
support booting with either via shim&signed-grub and BIOS, the choice
must be made to install grub-pc, not grub-efi-amd64.
This makes images consistent with Ubuntu Deskop, Live Server, buildd
bootable images; all of which already do install grub-pc and
shim-signed.
Additionally, this will ensure that autoremove is run after installing
anything in the CPC build hooks. This is done to avoid shipping images
that include packages that are autoremovable. This will clean-up as
packages are installed and detect any breakage at build time.

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.

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.

Original fix proposed by Stanislav German-Evtushenko (giner)
CPC Ubuntu cloud images default to enabling a serial console connection
via the kernel commandline option `console=ttyS0`. Many clouds support
the serial connection, and utilize it for debugging purposes. Virtualbox
supports the serial connection as well. In Bionic and earlier images,
Vagrant boxes created a serial log file in the directory of the
Vagrantfile by default. However this is not standard behaviour for
Vagrant images, and so it was removed in Eoan onwards.
Starting in Eoan, there were reports of image booting slowdown (1874453
is a single example). After testing, it was determined that the serial
connection starting, without a device attached, was the cause of the
slow down. However, we did not want to revert to the old functionality
of creating a file. Much thanks to <giner> for providing the Ruby syntax
for sending to File::NULL.
This option will not create a local file, however, the default
Vagrantfile configuration is overwritable via a users Vagrantfile. The
original syntax for creating a file local to the users Vagrantfile has
been included as an example.

The seed now specifies the lxd snap in focal as
'lxd=4.0/stable/ubuntu-20.04' which doesn't match the expectations of
the code with looks for lxd as the only snap in the seed for minimized
images. This patch updates the pattern to accept 'lxd' or 'lxd=*'.
snap_name[/classic]=track/risk/branch is now the supported snap name
specification, which allows to specify the full default track and
optional classic confinemnt.
Supporting such specification in the seedtext allows one to specify a
better default channel. For example, this will allow lxd to switch
from latest/stable/ubuntu-20.04 to 4.0/stable/ubuntu-20.04 as 4.0 is
the LTS track matching 20.04 support timeframe.

ubuntustudio-default-settings in focal release has a Recommends to this
kernel, which makes it impossible to update the kernel later on, since
we would install the -updates and release kernel, which isn't allowed
and causes FTBFS. Hack out the focal-release kernel and let the rest of
the build process pull in the right one.

It was reported and confirmed in LP bug #1875400
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-images/+bug/1875400) that on the public
KVM cloud image there exists a large list of packages marked for auto-removal.
This should never be the case on a released cloud image.
These packages are marked for auto-removal because in the KVM image binary hook
we removed both initramfs-tools and busybox-initramfs packages. Due to package
dependencies this also removed:
busybox-initramfs* cloud-initramfs-copymods* cloud-initramfs-dyn-netconf*
cryptsetup-initramfs* initramfs-tools* initramfs-tools-core* multipath-tools*
overlayroot* sg3-utils-udev* ubuntu-server*
But it did not remove all the packages that the above list depended on.
This resulted in all those packages being marked for auto-removal because they
were not manually installed nor did they have any manually installed packages
that depended on them.
The removal of initramfs-tools and busybox-initramfs was to avoid the
generation of initramfs in images that should boot initramfsless.
This requirement is obsolete now because the initramfsless boot handling
is now handled via setting GRUB_FORCE_PARTUUID in /etc/default/grub.d/40-force-partuuid.cfg.
In test images I have verified that GRUB_FORCE_PARTUUID is set and that
boot speeds have not regressed.
