This change is a preparative for reimplementing the BIOS boot
in order to deprecate the legacy script. All the codepaths to
boot systems located at a partition are now called from the
boot_os_at function enabling an easier structure for the incoming
code.
Checking the existence /sys/firmware/efi as it might appear
sometimes in BIOS installs if the BIOS configuration is not
proper. Checking for the EFI partition is the safest method
to veryfy the install type.
Replace IniciarSesion script in favor of native Python code when booting
a UEFI system. This applies when running the "session" command.
WIP: Only UEFI boots Windows systems. Raise NotImplementedError
exception trying to boot a Linux system using UEFI.
do not return the returncode, instead return an integer.
do not use
except CalledProcessError as e:
it causes a another exception while handling exception.
Remount the original image repository.
it should be possible to simplify this further by:
- stacking mounts, no need to umount initial repo and mount it again
when switching to the new repo, because remount back initial repo
might fail (!)
- use check=False and simply check for x.returncode
Remove mbuffer, this is never used.
mbuffer has been never been used since ogClient supports native image restore.
Originally this was used like this:
partclone [...] | mbuffer -q -M 40M | lzop [...]
supposely to speed up partclone in case the device where the read happens is
slowier than the device that is used for writes.
See mbuffer(1) manpage examples.
In any case, this needs benchmarking to really make sure this is helping.
Remove it until that ever happens.
cover more error cases where exceptions need to be raised.
check return code in the invoked subprocess.
restoreImageCustom has been intentionally left behind, it
is unclear what this custom script returns on success and
error.
Image backup is considered a legacy feature. Use the legacy mechanism of
naming image backups by adding ".ant" suffix.
Previously, by using the strftime suffix clients were reporting that the
disk were getting full rather quickly.
When a good method for image deletion is implemented then a proper
backup naming mechanism should be reconsidered.
Some users have mistakenly reported tiptorrent problems when the process
takes a long time. Specifically by rebooting or powering off the client
in the middle of the md5sum computation stage, just after the tiptorrent
transfer.
Same problem occurs when image creation command takes a long period of
time.
In order to help the user understand the different stages of commands
such as image creation or image restore using tiptorrent, the following
changes have been made to the current logging solution:
- Add log messages to warn users not to reboot or shut down the client
during a tiptorrent transfer, and also during the md5sum computation
stage.
- Add a log message telling the user that the image creation processes
have started.
- Use logging.exception inside "except:" blocks to print a traceback
with the log messsage.
(https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html#logging.exception)
Backup image file if image creation request included
"backup": true
This only applies when the target image is already present in the
repository folder before running the partclone subprocess.
This parameter is ignored if the target image is not present in the
repository.
Remove unnecessary InventarioSoftware invocation inside image_create
operation. Software inventory is executed after image creation
(see ogRest.py).
Remove legacy 'path' parameter. This parameter was used to specify the
path of a text file in which legacy bash scripts wrote the software
inventory of the client (something like "Csft-{ip}...").
Fixes: 04bb35bd86 ("live: rewrite software inventory")
Fixes: 2e3d47b7b8 ("Avoid writting /software output to a file")
Add optional 'operation' parameter to _poweroff_oglive function.
Reuse _poweroff_oglive code before the busybox subprocess when rebooting
an ogLive client.
Replace legacy bash script /opt/opengnsys/client/scripts/poweroff with a
Python native solution.
Use subprocess module for any required external program when shutting
down a client. ethtool is used to ensure WoL setting is correct before
shutting down.
ogLive does not properly use a init system so busybox is used when
shutting down the system. In other live environments poweroff operation
just calls /sbin/poweroff.
Replace legacy shell script InventarioHardware for helper functions
from hw_inventory.py
Use get_hardware_inventory to obtain a HardwareInventory object with
the hardware information. Map the HardwareInventory object to a legacy
response string with the legacy_list_hardware_inventory function.
Remove "Chrd-*" file reading logic, it's no longer needed. Legacy shell
script InventarioHardware uses that file.
Expect a change in the structure of hardware inventory response payload
in the future. This patch does not address the HTTP response containing
the hardware inventory as a '\n' separated string of hardware elements.
Rename software inventory file to sw_inventory to better distinguish
it from a future hardware inventory code.
In the future sw_inventory and hw_inventory might be merged together
once each file is tidied up.
Replace legacy bash script in favor of Python code. Improves error
traceability and further development.
The software inventory operation mounts the target partition and it
fetches the list of installed software (package set). Once the
operation is complete, it unmounts the target partition.
For Windows, introduce hivex library python bindings for accessing
Windows registry hive files (https://libguestfs.org/hivex.3.html).
This operation is still processed by legacy code in the server side
(ogAdmServer.c in ogServer). Legacy backend process expects the software
inventory like the following example:
"software": "Windows 10 Enterprise Evaluation 2004 \nIntel(R) Network Connections 24.0.0.11 24.0.0.11 ..."
The os name is inserted first in this list followed by a '\n' separated
string of the software packages.
The legacy server code can be found in function actualizaSoftware at
ogServer/src/ogAdmServer.c
It is expected for software inventory payload to change in the future to
a simpler solution using just a json array of strings.
Add missing samba credentials parameter in ogChangeRepo invocation.
Credentials are loaded from ogClient config file.
Any production deployment should use its own samba user and password.
ogChangeRepo fails when using default samba credentials in a production
environment.
Fixes: a1edbe904b ("legacy: rewrite ogChangeRepo")
Fixes: 3703fd6063 ("live: support native unicast cache image restore")
Removes undefined 'repo' variable from error logging message.
This caused the traceback to be polluted with an unhelpful message
about this variable being undefined.
Fixes: 3703fd606 ("live: support native unicast cache image restore")
Drop ogChangeRepo Bash script in favor of a native Python
approach. Use only necessary subprocess calls instead of bringing
all the logic of this function into a Bash script black box.
ogChangeRepo unmounts the current OpenGnsys image samba folder
(/opt/opengnsys/images) and mounts (connects to) a new directory using
the new provided ip address. Keeping access mode from previous mount.
If anything goes wrong when mounting the new directory, it will fallback
to mounting the previous directory.
If no previous OpenGnsys image samba directory is detected, this
functions tries to mount the new directory anyway. In this case,
it will raise CalledProcessError if something goes wrong.
Rewrites the setup operation using python-libfdisk module instead of an
external bash script. Consolidating the operation into Python's code,
limiting external subprocesses to well known programs and small
concrete tasks that are difficult to fully integrate into Python.
Use parttypes.py to fetch partition types from python-libfdisk module.
Use fs.py to create any specified supported filesystem.
OpenGnsys cache partitions are created labelling the partition as
"CACHE". Stops setting non-standard MBR hexcode (0xca) to the cache
partition in addition to the filesystem label.
Any partition specified as type EMPTY will be ignored.
Clears content of blue text areas in the real time log view before
executing a restore image operation.
Adds private function _ogbrowser_clear_logs, this function writes to a
couple of text files present in the ogLive environment.
The contents of this file are printed out to the blue text areas
in the "real time log" view.
Fix error paths in live operations which do not
reset the "browser" to the main page (one with the menu).
Add error logging messages when:
* _restartBrowser fails.
* ogChangeRepo fails.
Improve checksum fetch error handling. For example, when an invalid
repository IP is specified.
UNICAST-CACHE consist of:
1. Checking if the target image is already present at the opengnsys
cache partition. If so, check for integrity (local and remote
checksum). If the image is not present in the cache partition,
download the target image into it.
2. Restore the image from cache partition.
This commit add support for this operation natively from ogClient
Python's code.
Specifies the image path in the lzop subprocess string.
It might be interesting to study efficient mechanisms to read large
binary files in python before using open() with default parameters for
buffered binary reading.
Integrates image restore command into native ogClient code. Further
reduces the need for external Bash scripts.
After a succesful image restore, OS configuration is still using
external Bash script "osConfigure/osConfigureCustom".
ogCopyEfiBootloader is an invalid legacy bash function name.
Rename to the correct function name 'ogCopyEfiBootLoader' and
rename utility python wrapper too.
Fixes: 0bd037c1a409c65fbcb01355ee0dd6dca770330e
Do not return the subprocess result for ogReduceFs/ogExtendFs.
ogReduceFs works with or without the target filesystem mounted.
ogExtendFs requires the target filesystem to be mounted.
'ogMount' legacy script invocation should be replaced by a better
mount/umount wrapper.
Use legacy script that saves the Windows-specific content from the ESP
to the image target filesystem.
Current image restore solution from OpenGnsys scripts expect the EFI
partition to be stored in the target system partition. (Only for Windows
10)
For example, storing the ESP in the NTFS partition of a Windows image.
Expect use of bash script ogCopyEfiBootloader until further
integration is merged.
Integrates some parts of this operation into native code, eg: the md5
checksum computation.
Wraps non native processes and commands using the subprocess module.
For example, legacy.py stores bash commands pending integration.
Supports python >=3.6, expected until more modern ogLives are put into
production environments.
Enables details in libfidsk context constructor call. Ensures size are
displayed as bytes (and not as a human readable string).
Avoids further arithmetical errors (e.g: converting from bytes to KB)
parseGetConf was necessary for parsing output from OpenGnsys
script "getConfiguration", which has been replaced since commit
1ab981a539 ("live: replace getConfiguration with refresh")
Adds new logging handler redirecting messages to the log file
located in the Samba shared directory (applies to live mode
clients, i.e: ogLive)
Parses log level configuration from ogclient.json. See:
{
"opengnsys": {
...
"log": "INFO",
...
}
...
}
Adds --debug option to set root logger level to DEBUG when starting
ogClient. Overrides log level from config file.
In addition:
- Replaces any occurence of print with a corresponding logging function.
- Unsets log level for handlers, use root logger level instead.
- Default level for root logger is INFO.
- Replaces level from response log messages to debug (ogRest)
Old refresh was a wrapper around getConfiguration bash script.
New refresh operation does what getConfiguration used to do
externally. See commit 097769b971.
