the major+minor part of the libc version number in the locale directory name.

(beaglebone-black-installation-os): Use it.

(a20-olinuxino-micro-installation-os): Use it.

exported variable.

Suggested by Danny Milosavljevic <dannym@scratchpost.org>
in <https://bugs.gnu.org/29922>.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Add #:on-error parameter and
pass it to 'call-with-error-handling'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd): Add #:on-error and pass it.
(base-initrd): Likewise.
This avoids the hard-coded "/dev/sda1", which only made sense when the
image is run with "qemu-system-x86_64 -hda", not when it's passed to
Xen, etc.
Reported by Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr>.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image): Define 'root-uuid', use it as
the 'device' field for "/", and pass it to 'qemu-image'.
On ARM32 without LPAE support, hugetlb control group is not supported.
As it is not needed by elogind, remove it for all platforms.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%control-groups): Remove hugetlb from control
groups platforms.
This improves the performance of the shared store for operations involving
lots of files, e.g. searching through the store.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (mapping->file-system): Add cache=loose to options.
* gnu/bootloader/extlinux.scm (install-extlinux): Factorize bootloader
writing in a new procedure write-file-on-device defined in (gnu build
bootloader).
* gnu/build/bootloader.scm: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Add new file.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-img): Adapt to import and use (gnu build bootloader)
module during derivation building.
* gnu/scripts/system.scm (bootloader-installer-derivation): Ditto.
* gnu/build/vm.scm (load-in-linux-vm): New argument #:target-arm32.
Use it to adapt command for qemu-system-arm. This implies to choose a
machine ("virt"), use the correct console port "ttyAMA0", disable KVM use
that is buggy on some ARM boards (Odroid XU4 for example) and use user mode
network stack instead of NIC. Gather all those options in a new variable
"arch-specific-flags".
* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Pass
to load-in-linux-vm "#:target-arm32?" argument.
This reduces the closure of Guile from 131 MiB to 116 MiB and removes
extra readline/ncurses builds from the bootstrap path.
* gnu/packages/guile.scm (guile-2.0)[inputs]: Remove READLINE.
(make-guile-readline): New procedure.
(guile-readline): New variable.
* gnu/system/shadow.scm (default-skeletons): Adjust '.guile' so that it
gracefully deals with missing (ice-9 readline).

at <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2017-12/msg00058.html>.
* gnu/services/ssh.scm (<openssh-configuration>)[%auto-start?]: New
field.
(openssh-shepherd-service): Honor it.
* gnu/system/install.scm (%installation-services): Set '%auto-start?' to
#f for openssh-service-type.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (qemu-img): Do not add EFI partition if we are targetting
ARM.
UEFI support on u-boot is still experimental, so do not add EFI partition on
ARM for now.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-disk-image, system-qemu-image,
virtualized-operating-system): Replace base-initrd by
(operating-system-initrd os).
The system produced were always using base-initrd even if the user had
defined a custom initrd based on raw-initrd in the os declaration.
I dediced to keep adding /tmp as tmpfs since I was not able to trigger bug
while still using unionfs, so I could not verify whether this mount is still
needed with overlayfs. Mapping /tmp to tmpfs does not harm, so we are on the
save side.
* gnu/system/install.scm (make-cow-store): Mount /gnu/store without additional
read-only bind-mount, since in overlayfs the "lower" level is always
read-only. Add work-dir required by overlayfs. No need to sleep anymore
since now using the mount syscall. [unionfs]: Remove now unused function.
(%installation-services): Update comment.
(installation-os)[file-systems]: Update comment.
Overlayfs is part of the kernel, while unionfs needs FUSE. This also reduces
the size of the initrd by ca. 4.3% (487K).
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Remove optional parameter
"unionfs"; mount using overlayfs instead of unionfs; new directory layout
requied by overlayfs; update documentation.
[mark-as-not-killable]: Remove now unused function
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (file-system-packages): Remove now unused
packages "unionfs-fuse/static" and thus unused related 'if'.
(linux-modules): Replace "fuse" by "overlay".
* gnu/system/vm.scm (operating-system-uuid): Use 2^32 - 1 instead of
2^32 as hash size.
On some 32 bit system (ARM for example), 2^32 exceeds hash max
size (ULONG_MAX = 2^32 - 1).
