commit c3074fa13af7383748bd35ccef37a7ee0e074a0f
Author: anelliot <amber.n.elliot at intel.com>
AuthorDate: Thu Jan 18 07:42:38 2018 -0800

    wic: argparse now used for help functionality.
    
    The wic help output formally consisted of manually created strings mixed with argparse,
    which wasunformatted and unusable. This fix cleans up the help messages, rewrites help
    functionality to use argparse, and adds functionality to show information for
    plugins (similar to canned images).
    
    Fixes [YOCTO #12205]

-DESCRIPTION
-    This command creates an OpenEmbedded image based on the 'OE
-    kickstart commands' found in the <wks file>.
-
-    In order to do this, wic needs to know the locations of the
-    various build artifacts required to build the image.
-
-    Users can explicitly specify the build artifact locations using
-    the -r, -b, -k, and -n options.  See below for details on where
-    the corresponding artifacts are typically found in a normal
-    OpenEmbedded build.
-
-    Alternatively, users can use the -e option to have 'wic' determine
-    those locations for a given image.  If the -e option is used, the
-    user needs to have set the appropriate MACHINE variable in
-    local.conf, and have sourced the build environment.
-
-    The -e option is used to specify the name of the image to use the
-    artifacts from e.g. core-image-sato.
-
-    The -r option is used to specify the path to the /rootfs dir to
-    use as the .wks rootfs source.
-
-    The -b option is used to specify the path to the dir containing
-    the boot artifacts (e.g. /EFI or /syslinux dirs) to use as the
-    .wks bootimg source.
-
-    The -k option is used to specify the path to the dir containing
-    the kernel to use in the .wks bootimg.
-
-    The -n option is used to specify the path to the native sysroot
-    containing the tools to use to build the image.
-
-    The -f option is used to build rootfs by running "bitbake <image>"
-
-    The -s option is used to skip the build check.  The build check is
-    a simple sanity check used to determine whether the user has
-    sourced the build environment so that the -e option can operate
-    correctly.  If the user has specified the build artifact locations
-    explicitly, 'wic' assumes the user knows what he or she is doing
-    and skips the build check.
-
-    The -D option is used to display debug information detailing
-    exactly what happens behind the scenes when a create request is
-    fulfilled (or not, as the case may be).  It enumerates and
-    displays the command sequence used, and should be included in any
-    bug report describing unexpected results.
-
-    When 'wic -e' is used, the locations for the build artifacts
-    values are determined by 'wic -e' from the output of the 'bitbake
-    -e' command given an image name e.g. 'core-image-minimal' and a
-    given machine set in local.conf.  In that case, the image is
-    created as if the following 'bitbake -e' variables were used:
-
-    -r:        IMAGE_ROOTFS
-    -k:        STAGING_KERNEL_DIR
-    -n:        STAGING_DIR_NATIVE
-    -b:        empty (plugin-specific handlers must determine this)
-

-NAME
-    wic ls - List contents of partitioned image or partition
+In order to do this, wic needs to know the locations of the
+various build artifacts required to build the image.
 
-SYNOPSIS
-    wic ls <image>
-    wic ls <image>:<vfat or ext* partition>
-    wic ls <image>:<vfat or ext* partition><path>
-    wic ls <image>:<vfat or ext* partition><path> --native-sysroot <path>
+Users can explicitly specify the build artifact locations using
+the -r, -b, -k, and -n options.  See below for details on where
+the corresponding artifacts are typically found in a normal
+OpenEmbedded build.
 
-DESCRIPTION
-    This command lists either partitions of the image or directory contents
-    of vfat or ext* partitions.
+Alternatively, users can use the -e option to have 'wic' determine
+those locations for a given image.  If the -e option is used, the
+user needs to have set the appropriate MACHINE variable in
+local.conf, and have sourced the build environment.
 
-    The first form it lists partitions of the image.
-    For example:
-        $ wic ls tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/core-image-minimal-qemux86-64.wic
-        Num     Start        End          Size      Fstype
-        1        1048576     24438783     23390208  fat16
-        2       25165824     50315263     25149440  ext4
+The -s option is used to skip the build check.  The build check is
+a simple sanity check used to determine whether the user has
+sourced the build environment so that the -e option can operate
+correctly.  If the user has specified the build artifact locations
+explicitly, 'wic' assumes the user knows what he or she is doing
+and skips the build check.
 
-    Second and third form list directory content of the partition:
-        $ wic ls tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64/core-image-minimal-qemux86-64.wic:1
-        Volume in drive : is boot
-         Volume Serial Number is 2DF2-5F02
-        Directory for ::/
+When 'wic -e' is used, the locations for the build artifacts
+values are determined by 'wic -e' from the output of the 'bitbake
+-e' command given an image name e.g. 'core-image-minimal' and a
+given machine set in local.conf.  In that case, the image is
+created as if the following 'bitbake -e' variables were used:

-NAME
-    wic plugins - Overview and API
-
-DESCRIPTION
-    plugins allow wic functionality to be extended and specialized by
-    users.  This section documents the plugin interface, which is
-    currently restricted to 'source' plugins.
-
-    'Source' plugins provide a mechanism to customize various aspects
-    of the image generation process in wic, mainly the contents of
-    partitions.
-
-    Source plugins provide a mechanism for mapping values specified in
-    .wks files using the --source keyword to a particular plugin
-    implementation that populates a corresponding partition.
-
-    A source plugin is created as a subclass of SourcePlugin (see
-    scripts/lib/wic/pluginbase.py) and the plugin file containing it
-    is added to scripts/lib/wic/plugins/source/ to make the plugin
-    implementation available to the wic implementation.
-
-    Source plugins can also be implemented and added by external
-    layers - any plugins found in a scripts/lib/wic/plugins/source/
-    directory in an external layer will also be made available.
+wic_write_description = """
+This command writes an image to a target device (USB stick, SD card etc)
 
-    When the wic implementation needs to invoke a partition-specific
-    implementation, it looks for the plugin that has the same name as
-    the --source param given to that partition.  For example, if the
-    partition is set up like this:
-
-      part /boot --source bootimg-pcbios   ...
-
-    then the methods defined as class members of the plugin having the
-    matching bootimg-pcbios .name class member would be used.
-
-    To be more concrete, here's the plugin definition that would match
-    a '--source bootimg-pcbios' usage, along with an example method
-    that would be called by the wic implementation when it needed to
-    invoke an implementation-specific partition-preparation function:
-
-    class BootimgPcbiosPlugin(SourcePlugin):
-        name = 'bootimg-pcbios'
-
-    @classmethod
-        def do_prepare_partition(self, part, ...)
-
-    If the subclass itself doesn't implement a function, a 'default'
-    version in a superclass will be located and used, which is why all
-    plugins must be derived from SourcePlugin.
-
-    The SourcePlugin class defines the following methods, which is the
-    current set of methods that can be implemented/overridden by
-    --source plugins.  Any methods not implemented by a SourcePlugin
-    subclass inherit the implementations present in the SourcePlugin
-    class (see the SourcePlugin source for details):
-
-      do_prepare_partition()
-          Called to do the actual content population for a
-          partition. In other words, it 'prepares' the final partition
-          image which will be incorporated into the disk image.
-
-      do_configure_partition()
-          Called before do_prepare_partition(), typically used to
-          create custom configuration files for a partition, for
-          example syslinux or grub config files.
-
-      do_install_disk()
-          Called after all partitions have been prepared and assembled
-          into a disk image.  This provides a hook to allow
-          finalization of a disk image, for example to write an MBR to
-          it.
-
-      do_stage_partition()
-          Special content-staging hook called before
-          do_prepare_partition(), normally empty.
-
-          Typically, a partition will just use the passed-in
-          parameters, for example the unmodified value of bootimg_dir.
-          In some cases however, things may need to be more tailored.
-          As an example, certain files may additionally need to be
-          take from bootimg_dir + /boot.  This hook allows those files
-          to be staged in a customized fashion.  Note that
-          get_bitbake_var() allows you to access non-standard
-          variables that you might want to use for these types of
-          situations.

-
-DESCRIPTION
-    The 'wic' command generates partitioned images from existing
-    OpenEmbedded build artifacts.  Image generation is driven by
-    partitioning commands contained in an 'Openembedded kickstart'
-    (.wks) file (see 'wic help kickstart') specified either directly
-    on the command-line or as one of a selection of canned .wks files
-    (see 'wic list images').  When applied to a given set of build
-    artifacts, the result is an image or set of images that can be
-    directly written onto media and used on a particular system.
-
-    The 'wic' command and the infrastructure it's based on is by
-    definition incomplete - its purpose is to allow the generation of
-    customized images, and as such was designed to be completely
-    extensible via a plugin interface (see 'wic help plugins').
-
-  Background and Motivation
-
-    wic is meant to be a completely independent standalone utility
-    that initially provides easier-to-use and more flexible
-    replacements for a couple bits of existing functionality in
-    oe-core: directdisk.bbclass and mkefidisk.sh.  The difference
-    between wic and those examples is that with wic the functionality
-    of those scripts is implemented by a general-purpose partitioning
-    'language' based on Redhat kickstart syntax).
-
-    The initial motivation and design considerations that lead to the
-    current tool are described exhaustively in Yocto Bug #3847
-    (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3847).
-
-  Implementation and Examples
-
-    wic can be used in two different modes, depending on how much
-    control the user needs in specifying the Openembedded build
-    artifacts that will be used in creating the image: 'raw' and
-    'cooked'.
-
-    If used in 'raw' mode, artifacts are explicitly specified via
-    command-line arguments (see example below).
-
-    The more easily usable 'cooked' mode uses the current MACHINE
-    setting and a specified image name to automatically locate the
-    artifacts used to create the image.
-
-    OE kickstart files (.wks) can of course be specified directly on
-    the command-line, but the user can also choose from a set of
-    'canned' .wks files available via the 'wic list images' command
-    (example below).
-
-    In any case, the prerequisite for generating any image is to have
-    the build artifacts already available.  The below examples assume
-    the user has already build a 'core-image-minimal' for a specific
-    machine (future versions won't require this redundant step, but
-    for now that's typically how build artifacts get generated).
-
-    The other prerequisite is to source the build environment:
-
-      $ source oe-init-build-env
-
-    To start out with, we'll generate an image from one of the canned
-    .wks files.  The following generates a list of availailable
-    images:
-
-      $ wic list images
-        mkefidisk             Create an EFI disk image
-        directdisk            Create a 'pcbios' direct disk image
-
-    You can get more information about any of the available images by
-    typing 'wic list xxx help', where 'xxx' is one of the image names:
-
-      $ wic list mkefidisk help
-
-    Creates a partitioned EFI disk image that the user can directly dd
-    to boot media.
-
-    At any time, you can get help on the 'wic' command or any
-    subcommand (currently 'list' and 'create').  For instance, to get
-    the description of 'wic create' command and its parameters:
-
-      $ wic create
-
-       Usage:
-
-       Create a new OpenEmbedded image
-
-       usage: wic create <wks file or image name> [-o <DIRNAME> | ...]
-            [-i <JSON PROPERTY FILE> | --infile <JSON PROPERTY_FILE>]
-            [-e | --image-name] [-s, --skip-build-check] [-D, --debug]
-            [-r, --rootfs-dir] [-b, --bootimg-dir] [-k, --kernel-dir]
-            [-n, --native-sysroot] [-f, --build-rootfs]
-
-       This command creates an OpenEmbedded image based on the 'OE
-       kickstart commands' found in the <wks file>.
-
-       The -o option can be used to place the image in a directory
-       with a different name and location.
-
-       See 'wic help create' for more detailed instructions.
-       ...
-
-    As mentioned in the command, you can get even more detailed
-    information by adding 'help' to the above:
-
-      $ wic help create
-
-    So, the easiest way to create an image is to use the -e option
-    with a canned .wks file.  To use the -e option, you need to
-    specify the image used to generate the artifacts and you actually
-    need to have the MACHINE used to build them specified in your
-    local.conf (these requirements aren't necessary if you aren't
-    using the -e options.)  Below, we generate a directdisk image,
-    pointing the process at the core-image-minimal artifacts for the
-    current MACHINE:
-
-      $ wic create directdisk -e core-image-minimal
-
-      Checking basic build environment...
-      Done.
-
-      Creating image(s)...
-
-      Info: The new image(s) can be found here:
-      /var/tmp/wic/build/directdisk-201309252350-sda.direct
-
-      The following build artifacts were used to create the image(s):
-
-      ROOTFS_DIR:      ...
-      BOOTIMG_DIR:     ...
-      KERNEL_DIR:      ...
-      NATIVE_SYSROOT:  ...
-
-      The image(s) were created using OE kickstart file:
-        .../scripts/lib/wic/canned-wks/directdisk.wks
-
-    The output shows the name and location of the image created, and
-    so that you know exactly what was used to generate the image, each
-    of the artifacts and the kickstart file used.
-
-    Similarly, you can create a 'mkefidisk' image in the same way
-    (notice that this example uses a different machine - because it's
-    using the -e option, you need to change the MACHINE in your
-    local.conf):
-
-      $ wic create mkefidisk -e core-image-minimal
-      Checking basic build environment...
-      Done.
-
-      Creating image(s)...
-
-      Info: The new image(s) can be found here:
-         /var/tmp/wic/build/mkefidisk-201309260027-sda.direct
-
-      ...
-
-    Here's an example that doesn't take the easy way out and manually
-    specifies each build artifact, along with a non-canned .wks file,
-    and also uses the -o option to have wic create the output
-    somewhere other than the default /var/tmp/wic:
-
-      $ wic create ./test.wks -o ./out --rootfs-dir
-      tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/core-image-minimal/1.0-r0/rootfs
-      --bootimg-dir tmp/sysroots/qemux86-64/usr/share
-      --kernel-dir tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64
-      --native-sysroot tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux
-
-     Creating image(s)...
-
-     Info: The new image(s) can be found here:
-           out/build/test-201507211313-sda.direct
-
-     The following build artifacts were used to create the image(s):
-       ROOTFS_DIR:                   tmp/work/qemux86_64-poky-linux/core-image-minimal/1.0-r0/rootfs
-       BOOTIMG_DIR:                  tmp/sysroots/qemux86-64/usr/share
-       KERNEL_DIR:                   tmp/deploy/images/qemux86-64
-       NATIVE_SYSROOT:               tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux
-
-     The image(s) were created using OE kickstart file:
-     ./test.wks
-
-     Here is a content of test.wks:
-
-     part /boot --source bootimg-pcbios --ondisk sda --label boot --active --align 1024
-     part / --source rootfs --ondisk sda --fstype=ext3 --label platform --align 1024
-
-     bootloader  --timeout=0  --append="rootwait rootfstype=ext3 video=vesafb vga=0x318 console=tty0"
-
-
-    Finally, here's an example of the actual partition language
-    commands used to generate the mkefidisk image i.e. these are the
-    contents of the mkefidisk.wks OE kickstart file:
-
-      # short-description: Create an EFI disk image
-      # long-description: Creates a partitioned EFI disk image that the user
-      # can directly dd to boot media.
-
-      part /boot --source bootimg-efi --ondisk sda --fstype=efi --active
-
-      part / --source rootfs --ondisk sda --fstype=ext3 --label platform
-
-      part swap --ondisk sda --size 44 --label swap1 --fstype=swap
-
-      bootloader  --timeout=10  --append="rootwait console=ttyPCH0,115200"
-
-    You can get a complete listing and description of all the
-    kickstart commands available for use in .wks files from 'wic help
-    kickstart'.

-NAME
-    wic kickstart - wic kickstart reference
-
-DESCRIPTION
-    This section provides the definitive reference to the wic
-    kickstart language.  It also provides documentation on the list of
-    --source plugins available for use from the 'part' command (see
-    the 'Platform-specific Plugins' section below).
-
-    The current wic implementation supports only the basic kickstart
-    partitioning commands: partition (or part for short) and
-    bootloader.
-
-    The following is a listing of the commands, their syntax, and
-    meanings. The commands are based on the Fedora kickstart
-    documentation but with modifications to reflect wic capabilities.
-
-      http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#part_or_partition
-      http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Kickstart#bootloader
-
-  Commands
-
-    * 'part' or 'partition'
-
-       This command creates a partition on the system and uses the
-       following syntax:
-
-         part [<mountpoint>]
-
-       The <mountpoint> is where the partition will be mounted and
-       must take of one of the following forms:
-
-         /<path>: For example: /, /usr, or /home
-
-         swap: The partition will be used as swap space.
-
-       If a <mountpoint> is not specified the partition will be created
-       but will not be mounted.
-
-       Partitions with a <mountpoint> specified will be automatically mounted.
-       This is achieved by wic adding entries to the fstab during image
-       generation. In order for a valid fstab to be generated one of the
-       --ondrive, --ondisk or --use-uuid partition options must be used for
-       each partition that specifies a mountpoint.  Note that with --use-uuid
-       and non-root <mountpoint>, including swap, the mount program must
-       understand the PARTUUID syntax.  This currently excludes the busybox
-       versions of these applications.
-
-
-       The following are supported 'part' options:
-
-         --size: The minimum partition size. Specify an integer value
-                 such as 500. Multipliers k, M ang G can be used. If
-                 not specified, the size is in MB.
-                 You do not need this option if you use --source.
-
-         --fixed-size: Exact partition size. Value format is the same
-                       as for --size option. This option cannot be
-                       specified along with --size. If partition data
-                       is larger than --fixed-size and error will be
-                       raised when assembling disk image.
-
-         --source: This option is a wic-specific option that names the
-                   source of the data that will populate the
-                   partition.  The most common value for this option
-                   is 'rootfs', but can be any value which maps to a
-                   valid 'source plugin' (see 'wic help plugins').
-
-                   If '--source rootfs' is used, it tells the wic
-                   command to create a partition as large as needed
-                   and to fill it with the contents of the root
-                   filesystem pointed to by the '-r' wic command-line
-                   option (or the equivalent rootfs derived from the
-                   '-e' command-line option).  The filesystem type
-                   that will be used to create the partition is driven
-                   by the value of the --fstype option specified for
-                   the partition (see --fstype below).
-
-                   If --source <plugin-name>' is used, it tells the
-                   wic command to create a partition as large as
-                   needed and to fill with the contents of the
-                   partition that will be generated by the specified
-                   plugin name using the data pointed to by the '-r'
-                   wic command-line option (or the equivalent rootfs
-                   derived from the '-e' command-line option).
-                   Exactly what those contents and filesystem type end
-                   up being are dependent on the given plugin
-                   implementation.
-
-                   If --source option is not used, the wic command
-                   will create empty partition. --size parameter has
-                   to be used to specify size of empty partition.
-
-         --ondisk or --ondrive: Forces the partition to be created on
-                                a particular disk.
-
-         --fstype: Sets the file system type for the partition.  These
-           apply to partitions created using '--source rootfs' (see
-           --source above).  Valid values are:
-
-             vfat
-             msdos
-             ext2
-             ext3
-             ext4
-             btrfs
-             squashfs
-             swap
-
-         --fsoptions: Specifies a free-form string of options to be
-                      used when mounting the filesystem. This string
-                      will be copied into the /etc/fstab file of the
-                      installed system and should be enclosed in
-                      quotes.  If not specified, the default string is
-                      "defaults".
-
-         --label label: Specifies the label to give to the filesystem
-                        to be made on the partition. If the given
-                        label is already in use by another filesystem,
-                        a new label is created for the partition.
-
-         --active: Marks the partition as active.
-
-         --align (in KBytes): This option is specific to wic and says
-                              to start a partition on an x KBytes
-                              boundary.
-
-         --no-table: This option is specific to wic. Space will be
-                     reserved for the partition and it will be
-                     populated but it will not be added to the
-                     partition table. It may be useful for
-                     bootloaders.
-
-         --exclude-path: This option is specific to wic. It excludes the given
-                         relative path from the resulting image. If the path
-                         ends with a slash, only the content of the directory
-                         is omitted, not the directory itself. This option only
-                         has an effect with the rootfs source plugin.
-
-         --extra-space: This option is specific to wic. It adds extra
-                        space after the space filled by the content
-                        of the partition. The final size can go
-                        beyond the size specified by --size.
-                        By default, 10MB. This option cannot be used
-                        with --fixed-size option.
-
-         --overhead-factor: This option is specific to wic. The
-                            size of the partition is multiplied by
-                            this factor. It has to be greater than or
-                            equal to 1. The default value is 1.3.
-                            This option cannot be used with --fixed-size
-                            option.
-
-         --part-name: This option is specific to wic. It specifies name for GPT partitions.
-
-         --part-type: This option is specific to wic. It specifies partition
-                      type GUID for GPT partitions.
-                      List of partition type GUIDS can be found here:
-                      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table#Partition_type_GUIDs
-
-         --use-uuid: This option is specific to wic. It makes wic to generate
-                     random globally unique identifier (GUID) for the partition
-                     and use it in bootloader configuration to specify root partition.
-
-         --uuid: This option is specific to wic. It specifies partition UUID.
-                 It's useful if preconfigured partition UUID is added to kernel command line
-                 in bootloader configuration before running wic. In this case .wks file can
-                 be generated or modified to set preconfigured parition UUID using this option.
-
-         --fsuuid: This option is specific to wic. It specifies filesystem UUID.
-                   It's useful if preconfigured filesystem UUID is added to kernel command line
-                   in bootloader configuration before running wic. In this case .wks file can
-                   be generated or modified to set preconfigured filesystem UUID using this option.
-
-         --system-id: This option is specific to wic. It specifies partition system id. It's useful
-                      for the harware that requires non-default partition system ids. The parameter
-                      in one byte long hex number either with 0x prefix or without it.
-
-         --mkfs-extraopts: This option specifies extra options to pass to mkfs utility.
-                           NOTE, that wic uses default options for some filesystems, for example
-                           '-S 512' for mkfs.fat or '-F -i 8192' for mkfs.ext. Those options will
-                           not take effect when --mkfs-extraopts is used. This should be taken into
-                           account when using --mkfs-extraopts.
-
-    * bootloader
-
-      This command allows the user to specify various bootloader
-      options.  The following are supported 'bootloader' options:
-
-        --timeout: Specifies the number of seconds before the
-                   bootloader times out and boots the default option.
-
-        --append: Specifies kernel parameters. These will be added to
-                  bootloader command-line - for example, the syslinux
-                  APPEND or grub kernel command line.
-
-        --configfile: Specifies a user defined configuration file for
-                      the bootloader. This file must be located in the
-                      canned-wks folder or could be the full path to the
-                      file. Using this option will override any other
-                      bootloader option.
-
-      Note that bootloader functionality and boot partitions are
-      implemented by the various --source plugins that implement
-      bootloader functionality; the bootloader command essentially
-      provides a means of modifying bootloader configuration.
-
-    * include
-
-      This command allows the user to include the content of .wks file
-      into original .wks file.
-
-      Command uses the following syntax:
-
-         include <file>
-
-      The <file> is either path to the file or its name. If name is
-      specified wic will try to find file in the directories with canned
-      .wks files.

+It's also possible to specify expansion rules in a format
+<partition>:<size>[-<partition>:<size>...] for one or more partitions.
+Specifying size 0 will keep partition unmodified.
+Note: Resizing boot partition can result in non-bootable image for non-EFI images. It is
+recommended to use size 0 for boot partition to keep image bootable.
