The --root option can now be omitted, and inferred from the root file system
declaration instead.
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (canonicalize-device-spec): Extend to support NFS
directly, and...
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): ...remove NFS special casing from
here. Remove nested definitions for root-fs-type, root-fs-flags and
root-fs-options, and bind those inside the let* instead. Make "--root" take
precedence over the device field string representation of the root file
system.
* doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Document that "--root" can be left
unspecified.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system) Treat a root option with ":/" as an nfs source
and avoid to call 'canonicalize-device-spec' for it.

* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Add the 'flags' keyword
argument and use it when mounting the root file system.

The 'title' field was easily overlooked and was an endless source of
confusion. Now, the value of the 'device' field is self-contained.

Fixes a regression introduced in
c828969036 whereby /etc would no longer be
created as a result of calling 'mark-as-not-killable'.
This would affect ISO images because 'make-iso9660-image' does not
create /etc by default. In particular, the ISO installation image as
created by the "iso-image-installer" test would fail to boot while
creating the /root/etc/mtab symlink:
<https://hydra.gnu.org/build/2352514/nixlog/9/raw>.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Make sure /root/etc
exists.
Overlayfs is part of the kernel, while unionfs needs FUSE. This also reduces
the size of the initrd by ca. 4.3% (487K).
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Remove optional parameter
"unionfs"; mount using overlayfs instead of unionfs; new directory layout
requied by overlayfs; update documentation.
[mark-as-not-killable]: Remove now unused function
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (file-system-packages): Remove now unused
packages "unionfs-fuse/static" and thus unused related 'if'.
(linux-modules): Replace "fuse" by "overlay".
* gnu/build/file-systems.scm (mount-file-system): Rename 'spec' to 'fs'
and assume it's a <file-system>.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Assume MOUNTS is a list of
<file-system> and adjust accordingly.
* gnu/build/linux-container.scm (mount-file-systems): Remove
'file-system->spec' call.
* gnu/services/base.scm (file-system-shepherd-service): Add
'spec->file-system' call. Add (gnu system file-systems) to 'modules'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (raw-initrd): Use (gnu system
file-systems). Add 'spec->file-system' call for #:mounts.

Partly fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/19190> by populating /dev/mapper
early enough.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-essential-file-systems): Mount /dev as
a devtmpfs.
(move-essential-file-systems): Add /dev.
(mount-root-file-system): Mount /rw-root/dev as a devtmpfs instead of
calling 'make-essential-device-nodes'.
(boot-system): Remove call to 'make-essential-device-nodes'.
* gnu/system/file-systems.scm (%devtmpfs-file-system): Remove.
* doc/guix.texi (File Systems): Adjust accordingly.

Patch suggested by Mark H Weaver.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Use
'false-if-exception' instead of 'when (file-exists? ...)' to account
for dangling symlinks.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (mount-root-file-system): Remove 'catch #t'
around body. This was unneeded and even inconvenient because this
procedure is called from within 'call-with-error-handling' already.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Add #:pre-mount parameter and
honor it.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (base-initrd): Add #:mapped-devices
parameter. Add 'device-mapping-commands' variable, and use it to
build the #:pre-mount argument of 'boot-system'.
* gnu/system.scm (mapped-device-user,
operating-system-user-mapped-devices,
operating-system-boot-mapped-devices): New procedures.
(device-mapping-services): Use 'operating-system-user-mapped-devices'
instead of 'operating-system-mapped-devices'.
(operating-system-initrd-file): Call the initrd with #:mapped-devices.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Remove #:linux and
#:linux-modules parameters. Remove call to
'float-linux-module-directory'.
(base-initrd): Add call to 'float-linux-module-directory'. Use it in
#:linux-modules argument in the gexp. Remove #:linux and
#:linux-modules arguments to 'expression->initrd'.
* gnu/build/linux-initrd.scm (build-initrd): Remove
#:linux-module-directory parameter. Don't create 'modules'
sub-directory.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (boot-system): Mentin that LINUX-MODULES is a
list of absolute file names. Don't prepend "/modules/" to
LINUX-MODULES.
* doc/guix.texi (Initial RAM Disk): Adjust accordingly.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (expression->initrd): Remove calls to
'imported-modules' and 'compiled-modules'. Use 'gexp->script' with
EXP. Add the result to TO-COPY. Make /init a symlink to that script,
and copy its closure into the "contents" directory. Add fake
/proc/self/exe symlink.
* gnu/build/linux-boot.scm (load-linux-module*): Add comment about mmap.
* gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Add "-m
256". This turns out to be needed for initrds containing things like
e2fsck and several modules; with the default of 128 MiB, loading
libahci.ko may fail with -1.
