openEuler 24.03 seems closest to el8, so start with that baseline.
Modify el8 handling to recognize a totally missing CA bundle and assume
the original el8 location.
Have osimage recognize openEuler media by presence of openEuler release file.
Reduce obvious output about skipped devices.
Rule out any read-only device.
Amend minimum size to 2GB.
Among same priority devices, select the smallest target.
RedHat makes grub redundantly handle serial output that firmware
already handles. If we detect EFI firmware and SPCR ACPI table and
connected serial port, that suggests that firmware will handle.
Ubuntu hates serial console by default, amend it so it can actually
work for serial users.
A variant of the M.2 RAID enablement kit does not manifest with nvme
driver. Address this by allowing 'nvm' subsystype. to allow blank driver.
Also, to be on the safe side, have self.driver always be a string,
so it can be 'falsey' but still work as a string.
Provide mechanism for administrator to place a custom
key for potential interactive recovery into
/var/lib/confluent/private/os/<profile>/pending/luks.key
If not provided, generate a unique one for each install.
Either way, persist the key in /etc/confluent/luks.key, to
facilitate later resealing if the user wants (clevis nor systemd
prior to 256 supports unlock via TPM2, so keyfile is required
for now).
Migrating to otherwise escrowed passphrases and/or sealing to
specific TPMs will be left to operators and/or third parties.
Sometimes stateful install can fail if vgchange -a n is run after dd.
Use wipefs instead and fix order of both commands.
Furthermore, use the $INSALLDISK variable.
One issue is that there are multiple networkmanager connections,
clean this up, though this seems not to be a functional issue.
However, sometimes the lldpad usage screws up network configuration,
disable the facility by forcibly disabling fcoe sincec that is what triggers lldpad.
wq
If syncfiles fails, keep it retrying.
Also, slow down sync checking to avoid hammering the system.
Further, randomized delay to spread highly synchronized requestors.
Block attempts to do multiple concurrent syncfile runs.
Some versions start manifesting nvme devnames with 'c', which
are to be used to interact with multipath to have raw devices
backing a traditional nvme device.
When udev is populating the disk hierarchy, it can be a long time
before the 'by-label' is specifically ready.
Wait for that specific entry to come along before continuing to
check if there's an identity image.
confignet is special, it is designed
to work when networking
isn't right. So have it run during firstboot
in case post fouled up
the network for firstboot.
