Bug 1829037: Use virtio disk instead of config drive for injecting ignition for s390x/ppc64le #191
Conversation
…90x/ppc64le Similar to dmacvicar/terraform-provider-libvirt#718 The method of mimicking what Openstack does for injecting ignition config works for images which have the provider as Openstack because ignition recognizes the platform and knows it has to get the ignition config from the config drive. For QEMU images, ignition supports getting the config from the firmware config device which is not supported by ppc64 and s390x. The workaround we have used thus far is to use the Openstack image on the QEMU platform but have this provider create the iso containing the ignition config. There was a discussion in ignition (coreos/ignition#928) to have a more QEMU based method of injecting ignition config and it was decided to use a virtio-blk device with a serial of ignition which ignition can recognize. This was mainly because with external devices, it is hard to tell if there is an issue with the device or if the kernel has not detected it yet if it has a long discovery phase. This PR reverts the ISO method used by Openstack and just creates a virtio-blk device through the QEMU command line options. Reference PR which supports ignition fetching through virtio-blk for QEMU: coreos/ignition#936

Isn't this code doing the same as calling setCoreOSIgnition(ignitionVolumeName)
?

oh yes - that would be a good optimization to make although this is a commit cherry-picked from master to 4.4. I can make that optimization to the master branch.
