An update that has two fixes can now be installed.

Description:

This update for python-kiwi fixes the following issues:

  • Azure generated images are not bootable. (bsc#1180781)

  • Fixed validation of bool value in dracut module.

  • The oem-multipath-scan setup results in a bool variable inside of the initrd code.
    The variable kiwi_oemmultipath_scan is therefore either set to true or false. This update fixes the validation to make use of the bool() method provided for these type of variables.

  • Azure LI/VLI Production image boot process drops to dracut rescue shell during boot randomly (bsc#1179562)

  • Omit multipath module by default

  • The plain installation of the multipath toolkit activates the dracut multipath code. The setup if the target image runs in a multipath environment or not should however be decided explicitly in the image description via <oem-multipath-scan> and not implicitly by the presence of tools

  • Fixed multipath disk device assignment in kiwi lib

  • The former lookup of the multipath mapped disk device contained a race condition. If the lookup of the device mapper files happened before multipathd has finished the initialization, kiwi continues with the unix node name and fails when the device mapper keeps a busy state on it. Now, in case of an explicit request to use multipath the lookup of the mapped device becomes a mandatory process that runs until the DEVICE_TIMEOUT is reached. Default timeout is set to 60 sec.
