Scott Little 51d572ceed Shorten "addons/wr-cgcs/layers/cgcs" to just "stx"
Part of the project to remove cgcs references.
Replace and shorten the path the needlessly long and
complex "addons/wr-cgcs/layers/cgcs" path with just "stx".

This update just fixes up paths found in scripts, comments
and config files.

README Shorten "addons/wr-cgcs/layers/cgcs" to just "stx" 2018-07-04 11:03:59 -04:00

There are three prebuilt files that we can update when we need to make changes
to the installer:
- vmlinuz - The kernel
- initrd.img - Initial initrd loaded when the installer boots. Has kernel
  modules, etc, and loads the squashfs.img
- squashfs.img - Provides the rootfs for the installer, which includes
  components like anaconda

The original stock CentOS files are found:
/import/mirrors/CentOS/7.4.1708/os/x86_64/isolinux/initrd.img
/import/mirrors/CentOS/7.4.1708/os/x86_64/LiveOS/squashfs.img

# NOTE: before updating these files, assure that you've had a successful build
for the necessary files used in "kernel-rpms" and "rootfs-rpms".
# here are build procedures:

# kernel, kernel modules will be generated by this step
build-pkgs

# anaconda-*.tis.*.rpm rpm-*.tis*.rpm will be generated by this step
build-srpms --installer && build-rpms --installer

# systemd-*.tis.*.rpm and bind-utils-9.9.4-61.el7.x86_64.rpm, ima-evm-utils-1.0-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
# will be available after this step done
build-iso

===========
vmlinuz:
We're using the runtime kernel for this, so when we update the installer, we
just grab the kernel from build server or your own build environment.

Note -- The kernel to be used should be signed.  The Jenkins builds will
produce signed kernels, but if you are concerned about the signature (for
example, if you are concerned that a developer kernel is being used or if
the signing server is behaving odd) then you can verify the integrity of
the kernel by going onto yow-cgts3-lx and using the command:

sbverify --cert [CERT] vmlinuz

The certificate specfied as the argument can be found in
$MY_REPO/stx/stx-integ/extended/shim-unsigned/files/tis-shim.crt

===========
initrd.img:
When we update the kernel and kernel modules for the installer, we need to
update the initrd.img. This is a manual procedure currently, and must be done
as **root**.

# First, extract the initrd.img:

ORIG_INITRD=$PWD/initrd.img
mkdir initrd.work
cd initrd.work
xzcat $ORIG_INITRD | cpio -i

# Make the necessary changes, and rebuild the initrd

# We want to include our kernel and required modules in the initrd. Copy their RPMs from
# the Jenkins build or local build folders (~/export/dist/isolinux/Packages/ and ~/std/rpmbuild/RPMS/)
# to ../kernel-rpms, to be extracted with rpm2cpio:
# kernel
# kmod-i40e
# kmod-ixgbe
# kmod-e1000e
# kmod-tpm
# mlnx-ofa_kernel-modules
#
# Also adding in dmidecode for debug purposes


# Delete the old kernel files:
rm -rf boot/ etc/modules-load.d/ etc/ld.so.conf.d/kernel-3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.tis.29.x86_64.conf lib/modules/3.10.0-693.2.2.el7.tis.29.x86_64/

# Extract the RPMs from the build system
# FYI, here are RPMs in "kernel-rpms":

exit

===========
squashfs.img:
If we want to make changes to the rootfs of the installer (ie. update anaconda),
we need to update the squashfs.img file. This file can be mounted, and contains
a rootfs image: LiveOS/rootfs.img

# Build the TIS-modified installer RPMs first (see anaconda jiggery-pokery at end of this file):
build-srpms --installer && build-rpms --installer

# We also need TIS-built systemd for NVME support, so copy the following from Jenkins build:
systemd-219-42.el7_4.1.tis.10.x86_64.rpm
systemd-libs-219-42.el7_4.1.tis.10.x86_64.rpm
systemd-sysv-219-42.el7_4.1.tis.10.x86_64.rpm

# We need to update the following RPMs in the rootfs
ima-evm-utils-1.0-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
rpm-4.14.0-1.tis.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm-build-4.14.0-1.tis.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm-build-libs-4.14.0-1.tis.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm-libs-4.14.0-1.tis.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm-plugin-systemd-inhibit-4.14.0-1.tis.1.x86_64.rpm
rpm-python-4.14.0-1.tis.1.x86_64.rpm

# We also now need bind-utils in the squashfs, due to the anaconda-preexec we've added.
bind-utils-9.9.4-51.el7.x86_64.rpm

# Add ntpd to the rootfs
ntp-4.2.6p5-25.el7.centos.2.tis.3.x86_64.rpm

# Mount the squashfs.img and copy the rootfs out:
ORIG_SQUASHFS=$PWD/squashfs.img
mkdir squashfs.mnt
mount -o loop -t squashfs $ORIG_SQUASHFS squashfs.mnt
mkdir LiveOS
cp squashfs.mnt/LiveOS/rootfs.img LiveOS/
umount squashfs.mnt

# Now mount the rootfs.img file:
mkdir squashfs.work
mount -o loop LiveOS/rootfs.img squashfs.work
cd squashfs.work

# You can now make changes as needed, and they're reflected in the rootfs.img

# For anaconda, ignore these RPMs that are built:
# anaconda-debuginfo
# anaconda-dracut
# anaconda-widgets-devel
# anaconda-gui
#

# FYI, here are RPMs from "rootfs-rpms":

# IMPORTANT Note: when copying “systemd-219-42.el7_4.1.tis.10.x86_64.rpm” from build target folders to “rootfs-rpms”,

# folders (for example, ../std/rpmbuild/RPMS/systemd-219-42.el7_4.1.tis.10.x86_64.rpm), they are actually having
# different sizes and delta in contents.

# Extract the rest into the squashfs
rm -rf usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/
rm -rf usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/rpm/

# IMPORTANT Note, please do NOT forget the following step:
# MUST HAVE!!! Update the kernel and related kernel modules, same as what was done for "initrd.img" updating
for f in ../kernel-rpms/*.rpm ; do rpm2cpio $f | cpio -idu; done

# Remove the bisodevname package from initrd and squashfs
rm -f ./usr/lib/udev/rules.d/71-biosdevname.rules ./usr/sbin/biosdevname

cd ..
umount squashfs.work

# Build/rebuild a new squashfs.img (output file is test.squashfs.img in this
# example)
# Note: You may need to install "squashfs-tools" in advance
#remove the old version named test.squashfs.img
rm -f test.squashfs.img
#make the new squashfs image named "test.squashfs.img" or another name

===========
To test with design build, update the following files with paths to your test
files and filenames:
recipes-installer/pxe-network-installer/centos/build_srpm.data 
recipes-installer/pxe-network-installer/centos/pxe-network-installer.spec


===========
Delivering changes:
Copy the updated vmlinuz (from kernel rpm), initrd.img, and squashfs.img files,
with appropriate version suffixes, to  mirror folder where you placethese files.

Update the pxe-network-installer files to point to the new versions.


===========
NOTE: The following jiggery-pokery is no longer required after recent mirror updates.
I'm keeping the text here, though, for future reference. Just in case.

Jiggery-pokery required to build anaconda after rebase to 7.3:

The anaconda build reports a dependency error:

12:45:41 Error: Package: libgudev1-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64 (TisCentos7Distro)
12:45:41            Requires: systemd-libs = 219-19.el7_2.13
12:45:41            Installed: systemd-libs-219-30.el7_3.6.x86_64 (@TisCentos7Distro)
12:45:41                systemd-libs = 219-30.el7_3.6
12:45:41            Available: systemd-libs-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64 (TisCentos7Distro)
12:45:41                systemd-libs = 219-19.el7_2.13
12:45:41  You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
12:45:41  You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Our build system is setup to install the highest versions of packages, but there's a dependency
that has a version-specific dependency to an older version of the RPM, so it requires a little
massaging to get the anaconda RPM to build.

Step 1: Add a symlink into the cgcs-centos-repo dir:
ln -s /import/mirrors/CentOS/tis-r4-CentOS/mitaka/Binary/x86_64/systemd-libs-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64.rpm \
    $MY_REPO/cgcs-centos-repo/Binary/x86_64/

Step 2: Try to build, so the repodata is updated (this will still fail)
build-srpms --installer && build-rpms --installer

Step 3: Short-circuit the update_cgcs_repo function in build-rpms to avoid repodata update and mock env clearout

Step 4: Manually install RPM in mock env
mock -r installer/${MY_BUILD_ENVIRONMENT}-installer.cfg --copyin systemd-libs-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64.rpm systemd-libs-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64.rpm
mock -r installer/${MY_BUILD_ENVIRONMENT}-installer.cfg --shell
rpm -i --force systemd-libs-219-19.el7_2.13.x86_64.rpm

Step 5: Build with success!
build-srpms --installer && build-rpms --installer
