Let's allow users to configure the (logical) sector size of their
image. This is required when building images for a 4k sector size
disk on a 512b sector size host or vice-versa.
--include-partitions and --exclude-partitions now fully exclude
partitions from repart. Whenever a partition type is excluded, we
don't take any partitions of that type into account at all when
running systemd-repart.
--skip-partitions= is introduced to do what --exclude-partitions did
previously. Any skipped partitions are taken into acount when doing
size calculations, but are not yet populated.
Why do we need both concepts? Exclusion is needed so that we can
use shared repart definitions to generate bootable and non-bootable
images. When generating a non-bootable image, we use --exclude-partitions
to exclude the ESP partition. Skipping is needed so that we can
populate the root partition while skipping the ESP partition, get
the roothash of the root partition, use that to generate a UKI, and
finally populate the ESP partition with the UKI included.
Let's allow filtering the partitions to operate on by partition
type UUID. This is necessary when building bootable images with a
verity protected root/usr partition as we can only build the UKI
image when we have the verity roothash which means we cannot populate
the EFI partition yet when we run repart initially to determine the
verity roothash.
Note --private-key and --certificate options for configuring
verity signature partitions in the listing of options.
Adjust one error message referring to the --certificate option.
For use with sysupdate or other systemd tooling, it's useful to be
able to generate split artifacts from disk images, where each
partition is written to a separate file. Let's support this with
a --split switch for repart and a SplitName= configuration option.
--split enables split artifacts generation, and SplitName= configures
for which partition to generate split artifacts, and which suffix to
add to the split artifact name.
For SplitName=, we add support for some extra specifiers, more specifically
the partition Type UUID and the partition UUID.
In many places we spelled out the phrase behind "initrd" in full, but this
isn't terribly useful. In fact, no "RAM disk" is used, so emphasizing this
is just confusing to the reader. Let's just say "initrd" everywhere, people
understand what this refers to, and that it's in fact an initramfs image.
Also, s/i.e./e.g./ where appropriate.
Also, don't say "in RAM", when in fact it's virtual memory, whose pages
may or may not be loaded in page frames in RAM, and we have no control over
this.
Also, add <filename></filename> and other minor cleanups.
This is similar to the --image= switch in the other tools, like
systemd-sysusers or systemd-tmpfiles, i.e. it apply the configuration
from the image to the image.
This is particularly useful for downloading minimized GPT image, and
then extending it to the desired size via:
# systemd-repart --image=foo.image --size=5G
