Reference objects, not their IDs - this way when object is modified, it
is visible everywhere where it is used. Main changes:
- volume.pool - Pool object
- volume.source - Volume object
Since volume have Pool object reference now, move volume related
functions into Volume class (from Pool class). This avoids horrible
`storage.get_pool(volume).something(volume)` construct.
One issue here is since volume.source reference a Volume object from a
different VM - VM's template, now VM load order is important. Since we
don't have control over it, initialize vm.storage when needed - possibly
while initializing storage of different VM. Since we don't have cycles
in AppVM-TemplateVM dependencies, it is safe.
Also, since this commit, volume.source (if defined) always points at
volume of the same name from VM's template. Using volumes with something
else as a source is no longer supported.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2256
vm.kernel property have type 'str'. Putting None there makes a lot of
troubles: it gets encoded as 'None' in qubes.xml and then loaded back as
'None' string, not None value. Also it isn't possible to assign None
value to str property throgh Admin API.
kernel='' is equally good to specify "no kernel from dom0".
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2622
Do not initialize it only at qubes.xml load time, but re-read vm.kernel
property each time the path is constructed. While at it, add support for
vm.kernel set to 'None' - simply don't include modules.img (xvdd) then.
This is squashed woju/qubes-core-admin#8 by @kalkin
- LinuxKernel.volumes() lists all available kernels
- LinuxKernel use kernel version as vid
- LinuxKernel add docstrings
- Linux.kernel use os.listdir instead of os.walk
- LinuxKernel dynamically list available kernels
