Fresh deployments with SW-RAID (Software-RAID) might fail if the present
disks were already part of an SW-RAID setup:
| Error: disk nvme1n1 seems to be part of an existing SW-RAID setup.
We could also reproduce this inside PVE VMs:
| mdadm: /dev/md/127 has been started with 2 drives.
| Error: disk sda seems to be part of an existing SW-RAID setup.
This is caused by the following behavior:
| + SWRAID_DEVICE="/dev/md0"
| [...]
| + mdadm --assemble --scan
| + true
| + [[ -b /dev/md0 ]]
| + for disk in "${SWRAID_DISK1}" "${SWRAID_DISK2}"
| + grep -q nvme1n1 /proc/mdstat
| + die 'Error: disk nvme1n1 seems to be part of an existing SW-RAID setup.'
| + echo 'Error: disk nvme1n1 seems to be part of an existing SW-RAID setup.'
| Error: disk nvme1n1 seems to be part of an existing SW-RAID setup.
By default we expect and set the SWRAID_DEVICE to be /dev/md0. But only
"local" arrays get assembled as /dev/md0 and upwards, whereas "foreign"
arrays start at md127 downwards. This is exactly what we get when
booting our deployment live system on top of an existing installation,
and assemble existing SW-RAIDs (to not overwrite unexpected disks by
mistake):

Let's identify existing RAID devices and check their configuration by
going through the disks and comparing them with our SWRAID_DISK1 and
SWRAID_DISK2. If they don't match with each other, we stop execution to
prevent any possible data damage.
Furthermore, we need to assemble the mdadm array without relying on a
possibly existing local `/etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf` configuration file.
Otherwise assembling might fail:

By running mdadm assemble with `--config /dev/null`, we prevent
consideration and usage of a possibly existing /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
configuration file.

This is caused because /dev/md0 still contains partition data, and
its nvme1n1p3 also still has disk signature about linux_raid_member.
So it's *not* enough to stop the mdadm array, remove PV/LVM information
from the partitions and finally wipe SW-RAID disks /dev/nvme1n1 +
/dev/nvme0n1 (example output from such a failing run):

Instead we also need to wipe signatures from the SW-RAID device (like
/dev/md0), only then stop it, ensure we wipe disk signatures also from
all the partitions (like /dev/nvme1n1p3) and only then finally remove
the disk signatures from the main block device (like /dev/nvme1n1).

It looks like lack of libxmu6 doesn't cause any actual problems for our
use case (we don't use X.org at all), though given that libxmu6 is a
small library package, let's try to get it working as expected and avoid
the alarming errors on the logs.
Thanks Guillem Jover for spotting and reporting

During initial deployment of a system, we get warnings about
lack of zstd:
| Setting up linux-image-6.1.0-13-amd64 (6.1.55-1) ...
| I: /vmlinuz.old is now a symlink to boot/vmlinuz-6.1.0-13-amd64

| update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-6.1.0-13-amd64
| W: No zstd in /usr/bin:/sbin:/bin, using gzip
| [...]
The initramfs generation and update overall runs *four* times within the
initial bootstrapping of a system (we'll try to do something about this,
but this is outside the scope of this).
As of initramfs-tools v0.141, initramfs-tools uses zstd as default
compression for initramfs. Version 0.142 is shipped with
Debian/bookworm, and therefore it makes sense to have it available
upfront. Note that also the initrd generation is faster with zstd
(~10sec for zstd vs. ~13sec for gzip) and also the resulting initrd is
smaller (~33MB for zstd vs ~39MB for gzip).
By making sure that zstd is available straight from the very beginning
and before ngcp-installer pulls it in later, we can avoid the warning
message but also save >10 seconds of install time.
Given that zstd is available even in Debian oldoldstable, let's install
it unconditionally in all our systems.

Even though the ntpsec.service contains an Alias for ntp.service,
that does not work for us when the service has not yet been installed,
so the first run will fail. Use the actual name to avoid this issue.

It's better to have this package in grml-sipwise image so any system

Let's restore system state of /run/systemd/system for
VBoxLinuxAdditions, to avoid any unexpected side effects.
Followup for git rev 8601193

Recent Grml ISOs, including our Grml-Sipwise ISO (v2023-06-01), include
grml-autoconfig v0.20.3 which execute the grml-autoconfig service under
`StandardInput=null`. This is necessary to not conflict with tty usage,
like used with serial console. See
1e268ffe4f
Now that we run with /dev/null for stdin, we can't interact with the
user, so let's try to detect when running from within grml-autoconfig's
systemd unit, and if so assume that we're executing on /dev/tty1 and
use/reopen that for stdin.

As of git rev 6c960afee4 we're using the
virtualbox-guest-additions-iso from bookworm.
Previous versions of VBoxGuestAdditions had a simple test to check for
present of systemd, quoting from
/opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-6.1.22/routines.sh:
| use_systemd()
| {
| test ! -f /sbin/init || test -L /sbin/init
| }
Now in more recent versions of VBoxGuestAdditions[1], the systemd check
was modified, quoting from /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-7.0.6/routines.sh:
| use_systemd()
| {
| # First condition is what halfway recent systemd uses itself, and the
| # other two checks should cover everything back to v1.
| test -e /run/systemd/system || test -e /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd || test -e /cgroup/systemd
| }
So if we're running inside a chroot as with our deployment.sh, it looks
like a non-systemd system for VBoxGuestAdditions's installer, and we end
up with installation and presence of /etc/init.d/vboxadd, leading to:
| root@spce:~# ls -lah /run/systemd/generator.late/

We don't expect any init scripts to be present, as all our services must
have systemd unit files. Therefore we check for absence of systemd's
/run/systemd/generator.late in our system-tests, which started to fail
with the upgrade to VBoxGuestAdditions-v7.0.6 due to the systemd
presence detection mentioned above.
Let's fake presence of systemd before invoking VBoxGuestAdditions's
installer, to avoid ending up with unexpected vbox* init scripts.

To be able to upgrade our internal systems to Debian/bookworm
we need to have puppet packages available.
Upstream still doesn't provide any Debian packages
(see https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PA-4995),
though their AIO (All In One) packages for Debian/bullseye
seem to be working on Debian/bookworm as well (at least for
puppet-agent). So until we either migrated to puppet-agent
as present in Debian/bookworm or upstream provides according
AIO packages, let's use the puppet-agent packages we already
use for our Debian/bullseye systems.

Since version 1.20.0, dpkg no longer creates /var/lib/dpkg/available
(see #647911). Now that we upgraded our Grml-Sipwise deployment system
to bookworm, we have dpkg v1.21.22 on our live system, and mmdebstrap
relies on dpkg of the host system for execution.
But on Debian releases until and including buster, dpkg fails to operate
with e.g. `dpkg --set-selections`, if /var/lib/dpkg/available doesn't
exist:
| The following NEW packages will be installed:
| nullmailer
| [...]
| debconf: delaying package configuration, since apt-utils is not installed
| dpkg: error: failed to open package info file '/var/lib/dpkg/available' for reading: No such file or directory
We *could* also switch from mmdebstrap to debootstrap for deploying
Debian releases <=buster, but this would be slower and we use mmdebstrap
since quite some time for everything. So instead let's create
/var/lib/dpkg/available after bootstrapping the system.
Reported towards mmdebstrap as #1037946.

We set up the /etc/network/interfaces file by invoking Grml's
netcardconfig script in automated mode, like:
NET_DEV=eth0 METHOD=static IPADDR=192.168.90.51 NETMASK=255.255.255.248 GATEWAY=192.168.90.49 /usr/sbin/netcardconfig
The resulting /etc/network/interfaces gets used as base for usage inside
the NGCP chroot/target system. netcardconfig shuts down the network
interface (eth0 in the example above) via ifdown, then sleeps for 3
seconds and re-enables the interface (via ifup) with the new
configuration.
This used to work fine so far, but with the Intel e810 network card and
kernel version 6.1.0-9-amd64 from Debian/bookworm we see a link failure
and it takes ~10 seconds until the network device is up and running
again. The following vagrant_configuration() execution from
deployment.sh then fails:
| +11:41:01 (netscript.grml:1022): vagrant_configuration(): wget -O /var/tmp/id_rsa_sipwise.pub http://builder.mgm.sipwise.com/vagrant-ngcp/id_rsa_sipwise.pub

However, when we retry it again just a bit later, the network works fine
again. During investigation we identified that the network card flips
the port, quoting the related log from the connected Cisco nexus 5020
switch (with fast stp learning mode):
| nexus5k %ETHPORT-5-IF_DOWN_LINK_FAILURE: Interface Ethernet1/33 is down (Link failure)
It seems to be related to some autonegotiation problem, as when we

As a workaround, at least until we have a better fix/solution, we try to
reach the default gateway (or fall back to the repository host if

continue as usual. But even if that should fail we continue execution,
to minimize behavior change but have a workaround for this specific

FTR: we re-read the partition table (via `blockdev --rereadpt`) to ensure
that /etc/fstab of the live system is up2date and matches the current
system state. While this isn't stricly needed, we preserve existing
behavior and also try to avoid a hard "cut" of a possibly ongoing
SW-RAID sync.

As of grml-autoconfig v0.20.3 and newer, the grml-autoconfig systemd service
that invokes the deployment netscript uses `StandardInput=null` instead of
`StandardInput=tty` (see https://github.com/grml/grml/issues/176).
Thanks to this, a logic error in our deployment script showed up. We
exit the script in interactive mode, though only *afterwards* prompting
for reboot/halt with `read -r a` - which of course fails if stdin is
missing. As a result, we end up in our signal handler `trap 'wait_exit;'
1 2 3 6 15 ERR EXIT` and then fail the deployment.
So instead prompt for "Do you want to [r]eboot or [h]alt ..." *only* in
interactive mode, and while at it drop the "if "$INTERACTIVE" ; then
exit 0 ; fi" so the prompt is actually presented to the user.

Manual execution of python's http.server has multiple drawbacks, like no
proper logging and no service tracking/restart options, but most notably
the deployment status server no longer runs when our deployment script
fails.
While /srv/deployment/status then still might contain "error", no one is
serving that information on port 4242 any longer[1], and our
daily-build-install-vm Jenkins job might then report:
| VM '192.168.209.162' current state is '' - retrying up to another 1646 times, sleeping for a second
| VM '192.168.209.162' current state is '' - retrying up to another 1645 times, sleeping for a second
| [...]
It then runss for ~1/2 hour without doing anything useful, until the
Jenkins job itself gives up.
By running our deployment status server under systemd, we keep the
service alive also when the deployment script terminates. In case of
errors we get immediate feedback:
| VM '192.168.209.162' current state is 'puppet' - retrying up to another 1648 times, sleeping for a second
| VM '192.168.209.162' current state is 'puppet' - retrying up to another 1647 times, sleeping for a second
| VM '192.168.209.162' current state is 'error' - retrying up to another 1646 times, sleeping for a second
| + '[' error '!=' finished ']'
| + echo 'Failed to install Proxom VM '\''162'\'' (IP '\''192.168.209.162'\'')'
[1] For our NGCP based installations we use the ngcpstatus boot option,
where its status_wait trap kicks in and avoids premature exit of
deployment status server. But e.g. our non-NGCP systems don't use that
boot option and with this change we could get rid of the status_wait
overall.

Use system-tools' ngcp-initialize-udev-rules-net script to

to maintain code at multiple places.

When building our Debian boxes for buster, bullseye + bookworm (via
daily-build-matrix-debian-boxes Jenkins job), we get broken networking,
so e.g. `vagrant up debian-bookworm doesn't work.
This is caused by /etc/network/interfaces (using e.g. "neth0", being our
naming schema which we use in NGCP, as adjusted by the deployment
script) not matching the actual system network devices (like enp0s3).
TL;DR: no behavior change for NGCP systems, only when building non-NGCP
systems then enable net.ifnames=0 (via set_custom_grub_boot_options),
but do *not* generate /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules (via
invoke generate_udev_network_rules) nor rename eth*->neth* in
/etc/network/interfaces.
More verbose version:
* rename the "eth*" networking interfaces into "neth*" in
/etc/network/interfaces only when running in ngcp-installer mode
(this is the behavior we rely on in NGCP, but it doesn't matter
for plain Debian systems)
* generate /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules only when running
in ngcp-installer mode. While our jenkins-configs.git's
jobs/daily-build/scripts/vm_clean-fs.sh removes the file anyways (for
the VM use case), between the initial deployment run and the next reboot
the configuration inside the PVE VM still applies, so we end up with
an existing /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, referring to
neth0, while our /etc/network/interfaces configures eth0 instead.
* when *not* running in ngcp-installer mode, enable net.ifnames=0 usage
in GRUB to disable persistent network interface naming. FTR, this
change is *not* needed for NGCP, as on NGCP systems we use
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules, generated by
ngcp-system-tools' ngcp-initialize-udev-rules-net script also in VM
use case
This is a fixup for a change in git commit a50903a30c (see also commit
message of git commit ab62171), that should have been adjusted for
ngcp-installer-only mode instead.

The public name servers resolve deb.sipwise.com to our public OVH IP
address 164.132.119.186, while internally we want to use its cname
haproxy.mgm.sipwise.com. This only works with using our internal
nameservers (like 192.168.212.30 and 192.168.88.20).
Default to 192.168.212.30, so deployments work as expected, otherwise
we're failing during deployment with:
| Err:5 https://deb.sipwise.com/autobuild release-trunk-bookworm InRelease
| 403 Forbidden [IP: 164.132.119.186 443]
While at it also update the ip=... kernel option, to use
168.192.91.XX/24 by default, and also use a FQDN for the hostname (since
that's our current policy for puppet hostname/certificates).

Relevant changes:
* GRMLBASE/39-modprobe: avoid usage of /lib/modprobe.d/50-nfs.conf
* GRMLBASE/39-modprobe: do not expect all files in /etc/modprobe.d to be used
This gives us working netboot images and avoids sysctl errors during bootup,
if nfs-kernel-server should be present on the ISO.

If the date of the running system isn't appropriate enough, then apt
runs might fail with somehint like:
| E: Release file for https://deb/sipwise/com/spce/mr10.5.2/dists/bullseye/InRelease is not valid yet (invalid for another 6h 19min 2s)
So let's try to sync date/time of the system via NTP. Given that chrony
is a small (only 650 kB disk space) and secure replacement for ntp,
let's ship chrony with the Grml deployment ISO (and fall back to ntp
usage in deployment script if chrony shouldn't be available).
Also, if the system is configured to read the RTC time in the local time
zone, this is known as another source of problems, so let's make sure to
use the RTC in UTC.

For deploying Debian/bookworm (see MT#55524), we'd like to have an
updated Grml ISO. With such a Debian/bookworm based live system, we can
still deploy older target systems (like Debian/bullseye).
Relevant changes:
1) Ad jo as new build-dependency, to generate build information in
conf/buildinfo.json (new dependency of grml-live)
2) Always include ca-certificates, as this is required with more recent
mmdebstrap versions (>=0.8.0), when using apt repositories with
https, otherwise bootstrapping Debian fails.
3) Update to latest stable grml-live version v0.42.0, which:
a) added support for "bookworm" as suite name
cff66073a7
b) provides corresponding templates for memtest support:
c01a86b3fc
c) and a workaround for a kmod/initramfs-tools issue with PXE/NFS boot:
ea1e5ea330
4) Update memtest86+ to v6.00-1 as present in Debian/bookworm and
add corresponding UEFI support (based on grml-live's upstream change,
though as we don't support i386, dropped the 32bit related bits)

We build the pre-loaded library targeting a specific Debian release,
which might be different (and newer) to the release Grml was built for.
This can cause missing versioned symbols (and a loading failure) if the
libc in the outer system is older than the inner system.

Git commit 6661b04af0 broke all our bullseye based builds
(debian, sipwise + docker), see

For plain Debian installations we don't have SP_VERSION available,
so default to what was used before supporting trunk-weekly next

The logic to detect disks via /proc/partitions didn't cover NVMe disks,
as the regex '[a-z]$' fails for the "nvme0n1" pattern:
| % cat /proc/partitions
| major minor #blocks name
|
| 259 0 500107608 nvme0n1
| 259 1 524288 nvme0n1p1
| 259 2 499582279 nvme0n1p2
| [...]
| 8 0 384638976 sda
| 8 1 384606208 sda1
Instead, let's use lsblk to detect present disks, which works
fine for all kinds of disks, incl. NVMe devices.
