system: Add support for boot-time mapped devices. * gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Add #:pre-mount parameter and honor it. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (base-initrd): Add #:mapped-devices parameter. Add 'device-mapping-commands' variable, and use it to build the #:pre-mount argument of 'boot-system'. * gnu/system.scm (mapped-device-user, operating-system-user-mapped-devices, operating-system-boot-mapped-devices): New procedures. (device-mapping-services): Use 'operating-system-user-mapped-devices' instead of 'operating-system-mapped-devices'. (operating-system-initrd-file): Call the initrd with #:mapped-devices.
linux-initrd: Remove now obsolete #:guile-modules-in-chroot? parameter. * gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Remove #:guile-modules-in-chroot? and related code. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (base-initrd): Likewise. * gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Remove #:guile-modules-in-chroot? argument in 'base-initrd' call.

linux-initrd: Store Linux modules in a normal store directory. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Remove #:linux and #:linux-modules parameters. Remove call to 'float-linux-module-directory'. (base-initrd): Add call to 'float-linux-module-directory'. Use it in #:linux-modules argument in the gexp. Remove #:linux and #:linux-modules arguments to 'expression->initrd'. * gnu/build/linux-initrd.scm (build-initrd): Remove #:linux-module-directory parameter. Don't create 'modules' sub-directory. * gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Mentin that LINUX-MODULES is a list of absolute file names. Don't prepend "/modules/" to LINUX-MODULES. * doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Adjust accordingly.
linux-initrd: Copy all the script's closure to the initrd. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Remove calls to 'imported-modules' and 'compiled-modules'. Use 'gexp->script' with EXP. Add the result to TO-COPY. Make /init a symlink to that script, and copy its closure into the "contents" directory. Add fake /proc/self/exe symlink. * gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (load-linux-module*): Add comment about mmap. * gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Add "-m 256". This turns out to be needed for initrds containing things like e2fsck and several modules; with the default of 128 MiB, loading libahci.ko may fail with -1.

linux-initrd: Wait a bit longer for partitions to appear. Reported by Sveltana on #guix. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (canonicalize-device-spec): Increase MAX-TRIALS. Add "waiting for partition" 'format' call.

system: Recognize more file system flags. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (MS_NOSUID, MS_NODEV, MS_NOEXEC): New variables. (mount-flags->bit-mask): New procedure. (mount-file-system)[flags->bit-mask]: Remove. Use 'mount-flags->bit-mask' instead. In /etc/mtab, use the empty string when OPTIONS is false. * gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-service): Add #:flags parameter and honor it. * gnu/system.scm (other-file-system-services): Pass FLAGS to 'file-system-service'.
system: Add 'file-system' decl. for /dev/pts, and use the right options. Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/18081>. * gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%devtmpfs-file-system): Add 'needed-for-boot?' field. (%tty-gid, %pseudo-terminal-file-system): New variables. (%base-file-systems): Add %PSEUDO-TERMINAL-FILE-SYSTEM. * gnu/services/base.scm (udev-service): Remove dependency on 'file-system-/dev'. * gnu/system/shadow.scm (%base-groups): Add 'id' field for group 'tty'. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (boot-system): Remove 'mount' call for /dev/pts. * doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Add %pseudo-terminal-file-system.
linux-initrd: Use 'call-with-error-handling' when booting. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (canonicalize-device-spec): When label resolution fails, call 'error' instead of 'format' + 'start-repl'. (boot-system): Wrap most of body in 'call-with-error-handling'. Remove 'catch' around 'primitive-load' call.
linux-initrd: Remove unused local procedure. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (boot-system)[resolve]: Remove.
linux-initrd: Gracefully handle lack of or invalid ext2 superblocks. Reported by David Thompson <dthompson2@worcester.edu>. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (read-ext2-superblock): Add 'superblock-size' variable. Read with 'get-bytevector-n!' instead of 'getbytevector-n', and make sure we read exactly SUPERBLOCK-SIZE bytes.
linux-initrd: Allow unionfs to have a large number of open files. Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/17827>. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (mount-root-file-system) [volatile-root?]: Pass unionfs '-o max_file=65536'.

system: File system sources can be marked as labels or devices. * gnu/system/file-systems.scm (<file-system>)[title]: New field. * gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-service): Add #:title parameter. In 'start' gexp, use 'canonicalize-device-spec' and honor TITLE. * gnu/system.scm (other-file-system-services, operating-system-root-file-system, operating-system-initrd-file): Adjust accordingly. * gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (file-system->spec): Likewise. * gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image): Add 'title' field for the root file system. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (mount-file-system): Expect the second element of SPEC to be the title. (boot-system)[root-mount-point?, root-fs-type]: Likewise. * gnu/services/dmd.scm (dmd-configuration-file): Select 'canonicalize-device-spec'.
linux-initrd: Wait for devices to appear when resolving a label. * guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (canonicalize-device-spec): Add #:title parameter. When resolving a label, wait a little and try several times before bailing out.
