As noted in the change, 7fd52ba84180b4e749ccf4c9db8c49eafff46ea8 increased the size of the EFI partition considerably. This has meant that our padding upwards of the disk size is insufficient and EFI builds (arm64 in particular) is failing due to out-of-disk errors during final image operations like installing kernels. Similar to the discussion we had in I65fa13a088eecdfe61636678578577ea2cfb3c0c, this feels a bit ugly because we're mixing logic here with sizes specified in block-device config files. But it boils down to the same problem; we are calculating the disk size here and passing it to the block-layer, so unless we want to make large changes to the status quo about where these sizes are calculated, small adjustments here are the most KISS solution. Thus we check if we have selected the EFI bootloader element, and thus assume there will be a large system EFI partition and expand the disk size accordingly.

Image building tools for OpenStack
diskimage-builder
is a flexible suite of components for
building a wide-range of disk images, filesystem images and ramdisk
images for use with OpenStack.
This repository has the core functionality for building such images, both virtual and bare metal. Images are composed using elements; while fundamental elements are provided here, individual projects have the flexibility to customise the image build with their own elements.
For example:
$ DIB_RELEASE=trusty disk-image-create -o ubuntu-trusty.qcow2 vm ubuntu
will create a bootable Ubuntu Trusty based qcow2
image.
diskimage-builder
is useful to anyone looking to produce
customised images for deployment into clouds. These tools are the
components of TripleO that are
responsible for building disk images. They are also used extensively to
build images for testing OpenStack itself, particularly with nodepool.
Platforms supported include Ubuntu, CentOS, RHEL and Fedora.
