system: Add gexp compiler for <operating-system>.
* gnu/system.scm (operating-system-compiler): New procedure.
system: Fix typo in 'read-boot-parameters'.
Fixes a regression introduced in
commit 075681d3501082c6e22df8abf29dfe89d85effc1.
* gnu/system.scm (read-boot-parameters): For 'root-device', use
'device-sexp->device', not 'device->sexp'.
system: Serialize the UUID type in the "parameters" file.
* gnu/system.scm (read-boot-parameters)[device->sexp]: New procedure.
Use it for 'root-device' and 'store-device'.
(device->sexp): Serialize the UUID type in addition to its bytevector.
system: Introduce a disjoint UUID type.
Conceptually a UUID is just a bytevector. However, there's software out
there such as GRUB that relies on the string representation of different
UUID types (e.g., the string representation of DCE UUIDs differs from
that of ISO-9660 UUIDs, even if they are actually bytevectors of the
same length). This new <uuid> record type allows us to preserve
information about the type of UUID so we can eventually convert it to a
string using the right representation.
* gnu/system/uuid.scm (<uuid>): New record type.
(bytevector->uuid): New procedure.
(uuid): Return calls to 'make-uuid'.
(uuid->string): Rewrite using 'match-lambda*' to accept a single 'uuid?'
argument.
* gnu/bootloader/grub.scm (grub-root-search): Check for 'uuid?' instead
of 'bytevector?'.
* gnu/system.scm (bootable-kernel-arguments): Check whether ROOT-DEVICE
is 'uuid?'.
(read-boot-parameters): Use 'bytevector->uuid' when the
store device is a bytevector.
(read-boot-parameters-file): Check for 'uuid?' instead of 'bytevector?'.
(device->sexp): New procedure.
(operating-system-boot-parameters-file): Use it for 'root-device' and
'store'.
(operating-system-bootcfg): Remove conditional in definition of
'root-device'.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (file-system->spec): Check for 'uuid?' on
DEVICE and take its bytevector.
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm (open-luks-device): Likewise.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (iso9660-image): Call 'uuid-bytevector' for the
#:volume-uuid argument.
