gnu: wdiff: Upgrade to 1.2.2.

* gnu/packages/wdiff.scm (wdiff): Upgrade to 1.2.2.

gnu: gawk: Revert previous commit, which should go into core-updates.

* gnu/packages/gawk.scm (gawk): Downgrade to 4.1.0 to avoid recompiling
    almost everything in master.

gnu: gawk: Upgrade to 4.1.1.

* gnu/packages/gawk.scm (gawk): Upgrade to 4.1.1.

linux-initrd: Mount / as a unionfs when asking for a volatile root.

* guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (make-essential-device-nodes): Make
  /dev/fuse.
  (boot-system): Add #:unionfs parameter.  Invoke UNIONFS instead of
  copying files over when VOLATILE-ROOT? is true.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Add #:inputs
  parameter.
  [files-to-copy]: New procedure.
  [builder]: Add 'to-copy' parameter; honor it.
  (qemu-initrd)[linux-modules]: Add 'fuse.ko' when VOLATILE-ROOT?.
  Pass UNIONFS-FUSE/STATIC as #:inputs; change builder to pass #:unionfs
  to 'boot-system'.

gnu: unionfs-fuse-static: Remove dependency on util-linux.

* gnu/packages/linux.scm (fuse-static): New variable.
  (unionfs-fuse/static): Use it.

gnu: man-pages: Fix URL.

* gnu/packages/man.scm (man-pages): Use the 'kernel.org' mirror set.

offload: '{send,receive}-files' wait for completion of the transfer.

Fixes situations where the remote 'guix build' is invoked before the
.drv has been completely copied, as reported at
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2014-04/msg00174.html>.

In some cases 'send-files' would return before the other end is done
importing the files, and so the subsequent 'guix build' invocation would
just miss the .drv file it refers to.

* guix/utils.scm (call-with-decompressed-port): Don't close PORT.
  (call-with-compressed-output-port): Likewise.
* tests/utils.scm ("compressed-output-port + decompressed-port"): Adjust
  accordingly.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (send-files): Add explicit (close-pipe pipe)
  call.
  (retrieve-files): Likewise.

offload: Better synchronize with remote invocation of 'guix archive --missing'.

* guix/scripts/offload.scm (send-files)[missing-files]: Call 'waitpid'
  after reading all of MISSING.

derivations: Fix 'fixed-output-derivation?'.

Reported by Nikita Karetnikov <nikita@karetnikov.org>.

* guix/derivations.scm (fixed-output-derivation?): Fix pattern.
* tests/derivations.scm ("fixed-output-derivation?"): Add test.

gnu: Add Linux man-pages.

* gnu/packages/man.scm (man-pages): New variable.

nar: Really protect the temporary store directory from GC.

Prevents garbage collection of the temporary store directory while
restoring a file set, as it could previously happen:
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2014-04/msg00167.html>.

* guix/nar.scm (temporary-store-directory): Rename to...
  (temporary-store-file): ... this.  Use 'add-permanent-root' instead of
  'add-indirect-root'.
  (with-temporary-store-file): New macro.
  (restore-one-item): New procedure, with code formerly in
  'restore-file-set'.  Use 'with-temporary-store-file'.
  (restore-file-set): Use it.

store: Add 'add-permanent-root' and 'remove-permanent-root'.

* guix/store.scm (add-indirect-root): Improve docstring.
  (%gc-roots-directory): New variable.
  (add-permanent-root, remove-permanent-root): New procedures.
* tests/store.scm ("permanent root"): New test.

openssh: Add another mirror.

* gnu/packages/ssh.scm (openssh): Add the mirror.

Signed-off-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org>

packages: Correctly handle patching for inputs with no extension.

Reported by Manolis Ragkousis <manolis837@gmail.com>.

  FILE-NAME with no extension.

hydra: Specify the image size of the QEMU image.

* build-aux/hydra/gnu-system.scm (qemu-jobs): Specify
  #:disk-image-size.

vm: Move image creation to (guix build vm); split into several procedures.

* guix/build/vm.scm (read-reference-graph, initialize-partition-table,
  install-grub, populate-store, evaluate-populate-directive,
  reset-timestamps, initialize-hard-disk): New procedures.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-image): Change 'builder' to a call to
  'initialize-hard-disk'.

vm: 'expression->derivation-in-linux-vm' can import modules in the VM.

* gnu/system/vm.scm (%imported-modules): New procedure.
  (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Add #:imported-modules
  parameter; remove #:modules.  Add LOADER, and change BUILDER to load
  it.
