Tools such as efibootmgr rely on the deprecated /sys/firmware/efi/vars API as
well as on the new /sys/firmware/efi/efivars API. The latter needs to be
mounted.
Reported by Keyhenge here:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-guix/2020-04/msg00274.html
Here is the efivarfs documentation:

* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%efivars-file-system): New exported variable,
(%base-file-systems): add it.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%efivars-file-system): Add it.
Signed-off-by: Mathieu Othacehe <othacehe@gnu.org>
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (<file-system>): Add a mount-may-fail? field.
(file-system->spec): adapt accordingly,
(spec->file-system): ditto.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (mount-file-system): If 'system-error is raised
and mount-may-fail? is true, ignore it. Otherwise, re-raise the exception.

This allows users to specify network interface settings with 'guix system vm'
without having to create a new NIC. Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42252>.
Reported by Christopher Lemmer Webber <cwebber@dustycloud.org>.
This reverts commit 5379392731.
This fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/42151>.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): Use #:wal-mode #f
in call to ...
* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): ... this, add #:wal-mode?
parameter, pass it to ...
(register-closure): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter, pass it to ...
* guix/store/database.scm (with-database): ... this, add #:wal-mode?
parameter, pass it to ...
(call-with-database): ... this, add #:wal-mode? parameter; when
set to #f, do not set journal_model=WAL.
This is a follow-up to commit b904b59ce5.
* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): Move to ...
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-initialize-root-partition): ... here.
(hurd-disk-image): Use it.
This is a follow-up to commit b904b59ce5.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm (hurd-disk-image): Add file-system-options to
create an ext2 file-system that is compatible with the Hurd.
These issues were reported by -Wformat, though they were harmless in
practice because importing (ice-9 format) changes the global 'format'
binding currently.
* gnu/services/nix.scm: Import (ice-9 format).
* gnu/services/web.scm: Likewise.
* gnu/system/mapped-devices.scm: Likewise.
ISO9660 image compression was temporarily disabled to speed-up tests of the
new image API. Enable it again.
* gnu/system/image.scm (iso9660-image)[compression]: Enable it.
This moves hurd-disk-image to a dedicated file. It also defines a default
operating-system so that the image can be built standalone.
* gnu/system/images/hurd.scm: New file,
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): add it,
* gnu/system/image.scm (root-offset, root-label): Export it,
(hurd-disk-image): remove it as this is now defined in the new, Hurd dedicated
file above,
(find-image): adapt to avoid loop dependency.
Since c29bb909d2, fakeroot "sed" and "coreutils"
dependencies are now explicit.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Remove "sed" and "coreutils" from
inputs.
The "image-root" derivation output is used as a temporary directory that is
passed to mke2fs and mkdosfs later on. By merging the creation of this
directory and the production of partition images, we can get rid of the
derivation.
As mke2fs and mkdosfs are not able to override file permissions, call those
commands with fakeroot. This way, all the image files will be owned by root,
even if image generation is done in an unprivilegded context.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Merge "image-root" and
"iso9660-image" derivations so that we spare an extra derivation. Also add
"fakeroot" and its runtime dependencies to the inputs.
* gnu/build/image.scm (make-ext-image, make-vfat-image): Make sure that mke2fs
and mkdosfs are respectively called by fakeroot.
The "image-root" derivation output is used as a temporary directory that is
passed to GNU Xorriso later on. By merging the creation of this directory and
the production of an ISO image, we can get rid of the derivation.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-iso9660-image): Merge "image-root" and
"iso9660-image" derivations so that we spare an extra derivation.
* gnu/image.scm (<image>)[target]: New field,
(image-target): new public method.
* gnu/system/image.scm (hurd-disk-image): Set "i586-pc-gnu" as image 'target'
field,
(maybe-with-target): new procedure,
(system-image): honor image 'target' field using the above procedure.
The initial
guix build -f gnu/system/hurd.scm
hack has been superseded by regular guix system (cross) build.
* gnu/system/hurd.scm (compile-manifest, cross-hurd-image): Remove.
* gnu/system/hurd.scm (%hurd-def%hurd-default-operating-system-kernel,
%hurd-default-operating-system): New exported variables.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-hurd.tmpl: New file.
* Makefile.am (EXAMPLES): Add it.
* tests/guix-system.sh: Add --target=i586-pc-gnu when testing it.
Use "openssh-sans-x" to prevent the inclusion of X libraries to the bare-bones
system closure.
* gnu/system/examples/bare-bones.tmpl (operating-system)[services]: Use
openssh-sans-x instead of openssh.
During the installation, it may be needed to build locales that are not
covered by glibc-utf8-locales. Make sure that the libraries required to build
locales are available.
This is a follow-up of 0eed771275.
* gnu/system/install.scm (installation-os)[services]: Add
%default-locale-libcs to gc-root-service-type.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-image)[preserve-target, inputs*]: New variables.
In gexp, use INPUTS* instead of INPUTS. Wrap OS and BOOTCFG-DRV in
'preserve-target'. Pass INPUTS* instead of INPUTS as the #:references-graphs.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Remove #:target.
[builder]: Use #+. Don't pass #:target-arm32? and #:target-aarch64? to
'load-in-linux-vm'.
Pass #:target #f to 'gexp->derivation'.
(qemu-image): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/build/vm.scm (load-in-linux-vm): Remove #:target-aarch64?
and #:target-arm32?. Define them as local variables.
Now that installing Grub on raw disk-images is supported, we do not need to
rely on (gnu system vm) module.
* gnu/system/image.scm (make-system-image): Rename to ...
(system-image): ... this, and remove the compatibility wrapper.
(find-image): Turn to a monadic procedure. This will become useful when
introducing Hurd support, to be able to detect the target system.
* gnu/ci.scm (qemu-jobs): Use lower-object now that system-image returns a
file-like object.
* gnu/tests/install.scm (run-install): Ditto.
* guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Add a 'base-image'
argument,
(perform-action): adapt accordingly.
The generic 'efi-disk-image' needs to be bootable on systems without EFI. To
do that, GRUB is installed in the post-MBR gap. Make sure that the first
partition starts with an offset, to make this gap large enough for GRUB.
* gnu/system/image.scm (root-offset, root-label): New variables,
(esp-partition): use 'root-offset' as the partition offset,
(root-partition): use 'root-label' as the partition label.
* gnu/build/image.scm (initialize-root-partition): Add bootloader-package and
bootloader-installer arguments. Run the bootloader-installer if defined.
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Adapt the partition initializer
call accordingly.
