Date: Sun, 15 Sep 2024 11:11:59 +0200
Hi,
I dislike that so few patches change from revision to revision,
according to the diffstat. I like the ratio of discussion to patch
submission messages in #68524 more, and I think splitting the patches
over multiple series will result in fewer patch submissions overall and
discussion that is relevant to every patch in a series.
I would like to submit a rewritten patch series. Basically, it would
consist of patches #4, #6, #12, #13, and #14. I want to submit #1, #2,
#3, #5 and #15 to issue #73202, and #7, #8, #9, #10 (excl. efibootmgr)
and #11 to #68524.
Parts of patch #4 which fit better with #73202 or function standalone
would be submitted to #73202. Finally, #4 will be split into seven to
ten patches, hopefully making referring to changes easier and review
less demanding.
Please let me know what you think about the proposed patch series.
By the way, assuming 'herman' is the remote for [1], you can see the
current changes of my rewrite by running: git diff herman/bootloader-v5
herman/uki-efi-bootloader.
Aside from that, %test-installed-os is broken for (at least) the v5
patch series. It results in [2], after having fixed
guix/scripts/system.scm like so:
(mlet* %store-monad
((alt -> (generation->boot-alternative profile 1))
(inst (apply install-bootloader local-eval bootloaders
- (list alt) #:dry-run (not install-bootloader?)
+ (list alt) #:dry-run? (not install-bootloader?)
#:root-offset target bootmeta)))
(maybe-copy (derivation->output-path inst)))
The steps I took to get [2] are: create channels.scm for my bootloader
branch, git checkout the branch, append %test-installed-os to
gnu/tests/install.scm, and run guix time-machine -C channels.scm --
build -f gnu/tests/install.scm.
On master (or issue #69343) it seems grub.cfg is built together with the
system and provenance derivations, before 'initializing operating system
under /mnt'. If anything, let me know if you fail to reproduce [2] with
the fixed v5 series or on my branch. I will try fix [2] next weekend,
so feel free to look into it this week.
Cheers,
Herman
