USHIFT-4304: Rework image mode documentation for source builds - #7271
USHIFT-4304: Rework image mode documentation for source builds#7271copejon wants to merge 4 commits into
Conversation
The in-repo image mode docs duplicated ~5 sections of the openshift-docs "Installing with RHEL image mode" book and, like that book, built MicroShift from the released rhocp repositories. They therefore neither supplemented nor differed from the source of truth, and targeted the wrong audience: readers of docs/ deploy MicroShift built from source, not from released RPMs. Rework the docs so openshift-docs remains the source of truth for the released flow and the in-repo docs cover only source builds: - Add docs/config/Containerfile.bootc-source-rhel9, which installs MicroShift from a local repo of `make rpm` output and pulls cri-o/cri-tools/ openshift-clients/openvswitch from the OpenShift dependencies beta mirror (not available in released rhocp for a pre-release source build). Validated by building the image and running it as a podman container until all MicroShift pods reached Running. - docs/user/image_mode.md: retitle to "(from source)"; document make rpm -> createrepo_c -> source Containerfile; link to openshift-docs for publish/ kickstart/VM instead of duplicating them; keep BIB and embedding/offline flows (absent from openshift-docs), retargeted to the source image. - docs/contributor/image_mode.md: point the podman-run dev loop and multi-arch build at the source image; fix broken #build-image/#publish-image links. - docs/contributor/layered_product_ci.md: repoint build/publish links to openshift-docs; fix schemeless mirror.openshift.com links. - Fix defects from the version bump: fd01::/48w -> fd01::/48, el9_4 -> el9_8 kernel example, and reword the nonsensical "9.8 to 9.8" dnf upgrade note.

…FT-4304) - Correct the openshift-docs version note to reflect the /latest/ links (it still said the links were pinned to 4.19 after they were changed) - Fix the BIB ISO path in prose to match the command (./output/bootiso/install.iso) - Reference the in-repo Containerfile.bootc-embedded-rhel9 instead of curling it from GitHub main, and correct the mismatched link text - Normalize SUDO -> sudo Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

bootc container image runtime root user systemd HEALTHCHECK Dockerfile requirements
💡 Result:
When using bootc to build bootable operating system images, it is critical to distinguish between the container's behavior during a build (or when run as a standard container) and its behavior after deployment to a physical or virtual machine [1][2]. Once a bootc image is deployed to a host, it ceases to function as a container. There is no outer container runtime, namespace isolation, or cgroup management; the system boots directly into an init system [1][2]. Key Requirements and Considerations: 1. Systemd and Root User: - Systemd is the expected init system (PID 1) [3][1][2]. Because the deployed image acts as a full operating system, you should configure individual services to run as unprivileged users using systemd features (such as DynamicUser=yes, systemd-sysusers, or systemd-tmpfiles) rather than relying on the Dockerfile USER instruction [4][5][2]. - The USER instruction in a Dockerfile is ignored by bootc at deploy time [1][5]. 2. Dockerfile/Containerfile Metadata: - Most standard OCI/Docker metadata is ignored when a bootc image is installed as an operating system, because the boot process is managed by the bootloader, kernel, and systemd, not by a container runtime [1][5]. - Ignored instructions include ENTRYPOINT, CMD, ENV, EXPOSE, USER, and HEALTHCHECK [1][5]. - While you can define these for testing the image as a container (e.g., using podman or docker), they have no effect on the final deployed system [5][2]. 3. HEALTHCHECK: - HEALTHCHECK is a Docker-specific metadata field that is ignored by bootc [2]. Since there is no container runtime to perform health checks on a deployed bootc system, the system must either perform self-monitoring via systemd units or rely on external infrastructure to monitor the host's health [2]. 4. Filesystem Requirements: - The image must include a /sysroot directory (typically mode 0755) where the physical root will be mounted [6]. - The Linux kernel and initramfs must be embedded in the image, typically at /usr/lib/modules/$kver/vmlinuz and /usr/lib/modules/$kver/initramfs.img [6]. - Avoid including content in /boot, as bootc manages the population of the boot partition [6]. 5. Development Recommendations: - Because systemd is not active during the container build process, standard commands like systemctl start will not work [4]. You should configure services to start at boot using systemctl enable or by placing configuration files in the appropriate directories (/usr/lib/systemd/system or drop-in directories) [3][4]. - Use multi-stage builds to compile software, as the bootc environment (which lacks certain runtime daemon capabilities) is not optimal for build tasks [4].

Copy only the repository content required by DNF.
COPY . copies the entire build context into the image layer. Copy the architecture-specific RPM directory, noarch, and repodata explicitly, or stage a minimal repository context. This prevents unrelated files or accidental secrets from entering the build layer.
As per path instructions, copy specific files instead of the entire build context.

DNF documentation gpgcheck repository option repofrompath setopt
💡 Result:
The DNF (Dandified YUM) command-line interface provides powerful options to configure and use repositories dynamically without modifying persistent system configuration files [1][2]. --repofrompath This option allows you to add a repository at runtime [3][1]. It accepts two arguments separated by a comma: a repository label (ID) and the path or URL to the repository (baseurl) [3][2]. Syntax: --repofrompath ,<path/url> The <path/url> supports standard repository variables (like $releasever or $basearch) [3][2]. This option can be used multiple times in a single command [1][2]. --setopt The --setopt option is used to override configuration settings from the dnf configuration files [1][2]. When used in conjunction with --repofrompath, it allows you to configure specific options for the temporary repository [4]. To target a repository added via --repofrompath, use the syntax: --setopt=.= Common Example: Managing GPG Checks A frequent use case for --setopt with --repofrompath is managing security settings, such as enabling or disabling GPG signature verification for the temporary repository [5]. To disable GPG checks for a temporary repository named mycustomrepo: dnf --repofrompath mycustomrepo, --setopt=mycustomrepo.gpgcheck=0 install <package_name> To ensure GPG checks are enabled: dnf --repofrompath mycustomrepo, --setopt=mycustomrepo.gpgcheck=1 install <package_name> Important Notes: 1. Default Behavior: By default, DNF performs GPG checks on repositories [6][7]. If a repository does not support GPG signing, you may need to explicitly set gpgcheck=0 for that repository to avoid errors [5]. 2. Persistence: Configurations applied via --repofrompath and --setopt only exist for the duration of that specific DNF command and do not persist in /etc/yum.repos.d/ or other system configuration files [4]. 3. Alternative: If you have a.repo file and prefer not to use --repofrompath, you can point DNF to the directory containing that file using the --reposdir option [4].

--setopt=openshift-deps.gpgcheck=0 disables GPG checks for packages from DEPS_REPO_URL. A compromised mirror can inject packages into the image. Import the matching signing key and enable gpgcheck, or document a narrowly scoped trusted-development exception.

Replace the password build argument with a build secret.
The Containerfile policy prohibits secrets in ARG. USER_PASSWD is declared as an ARG and passed with --build-arg in both documented commands. Use a supported secret mount and update all three sites together.

USHIFT-4304: Rework image mode documentation for source builds
Reworks the in-repo image mode docs so they cover deploying MicroShift from the latest source code via bootc image mode, and delegate the shared publish / kickstart / VM steps to the authoritative openshift-docs instead of duplicating them.
JIRA: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/USHIFT-4304
What changed
docs/config/Containerfile.bootc-source-rhel9— builds a bootc image from locally-built source RPMs (make rpm→createrepo_c→ a localfile://repo). Non-RHEL runtime dependencies (cri-o, cri-tools, openshift-clients, openvswitch) come from the OpenShift dependencies mirror that matches the source tree (RHOCP_MINOR_Y_BETAintest/bin/common_versions.sh). It does not enablerhocp/fast-datapath, since those carry released RPMs, not source.docs/user/image_mode.md— retitled "Image Mode for MicroShift (from source)". Adds the build-from-source recipe, delegates publish/kickstart/VM to openshift-docs, and keeps the topics unique to source/offline users: bootc-image-builder (BIB) self-contained ISO, embedding container images for offline installs, and the isolated libvirt network.docs/contributor/image_mode.md— contributor dev loop against the source image: configure CNI/CSI, run as a privileged podman container, verify pods; plus the multi-arch manifest and rpm-ostree → image-mode upgrade appendices.docs/config/Containerfile.bootc-rhel9(released-RPM variant) bumped to RHEL 9.8 / MicroShift 4.22.installing_with_image_mode_for_rhelusing the version-proof/latest/path (no hardcoded version).hadolint ignore=SC1091directive in the source Containerfile so it covers the correctRUN, and aligned mismatched openshift-docs link text between the user and contributor docs.Verification
