2026-02-11system: vm: Remove grub-efi workaround.Efraim Flashner
Bug https://bugs.gnu.org/28768 no longer needs working around. * gnu/system/vm.scm (virtualized-operating-system): Don't override the bootloader of the system configuration used. Change-Id: I495f59a6edd7929e2d47276db53fd86a89ac95e9 Signed-off-by: Efraim Flashner <efraim@flashner.co.il>
2025-10-01vm: Let ‘%immutable-store’ through.Ludovic Courtès
Fixes guix/guix#1926. ‘guix system vm’ would so far produce a system without the ‘file-system-/gnu/store’ Shepherd service, which is normally provided by ‘%immutable-store’. This would lead to an error for OS configs that explicitly require ‘file-system-/gnu/store’, such as those that use ‘qemu-binfmt-service-type’. * gnu/system/vm.scm (virtualized-operating-system)[user-file-systems]: Remove filtering of TARGET = (%store-prefix). Reported-by: Ashvith Shetty <ashvithshetty0010@zohomail.in> Change-Id: I656df6c3f067e47cd7acd03af437fe757db286d5

2025-03-05vm: ‘common-qemu-options’ splits command-line tokens.Ludovic Courtès
The result returned so far by ‘common-qemu-options’ assumed that it would be passed to a shell. This is the case when using ‘system-qemu-image/shared-store-script’ but possibly not in other cases. * gnu/system/vm.scm (common-qemu-options): Add #:image-format. [virtfs-option]: Return a list of strings instead of a single "-virtfs xyz" string. Update caller to use ‘append-map’. Separate "-drive" string. Change-Id: Ib07c27e2c4b2d222d7db2c612bb045d330bc7f68
2025-02-13build: marionette: Make it possible to reboot VM during tests.Maxim Cournoyer

2025-02-13system/vm: Fix virtual-machine bug.Maxim Cournoyer
The virtual-machine syntax would not accept a single operating-system field, which was puzzling. * gnu/system/vm.scm (virtual-machine): Add a pattern matching a single literal 'operating-system' field and value. Change-Id: If207fd71df3a3f763b2e63229eafa82f63e80773
2024-04-17vm: Always use a native emulator in ‘guix system vm’.Ludovic Courtès
Suggested by Zheng Junjie <zhengjunjie@iscas.ac.cn>. * gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script)[qemu-exec]: Wrap first element in ‘with-parameters’. Change-Id: Iab9905aaa7e80bad0372c1ee7c3ea88a89564f8f

This is Ludo's suggestion at <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/36069#26>, with an added guard against duplicates and a tweaked comment. * gnu/system/vm.scm (virtualized-operating-system): Add "cirrus" to the list of INITRD-MODULES. Co-authored-by: Ludovic Courtès <ludo@gnu.org> Change-Id: I1a86286586eee0b8c39706544778c7911a86da33
2023-10-01system: vm: Remove unused variable.Ludovic Courtès
This is a followup to 05a9d1f378e2e13e8f759be926ea368358afc27c, which removed its sole user. * gnu/system/vm.scm (%linux-vm-file-systems): Remove. (mapping->file-system): Add comment about “cache=loose”.
2022-12-06system: vm: Non-volatile 'run-vm.sh' creates a CoW image.Ludovic Courtès
Previously, copying the image would consume a lot of space and was I/O-intensive, to the point that the marionette connection timeout of 20s could be reached when running tests like "docker-system". * gnu/system/vm.scm (common-qemu-options): Pass 'format=' for each '-drive' option. (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script)[copy-image]: New variable. [builder]: Use it when VOLATILE? is false.
2022-01-14system: vm: Change the writable image name.Mathieu Othacehe

2021-12-23Remove VM generation dead-code.Mathieu Othacehe
This code duplicates the (gnu system image) and (gnu build image) code. Using VM for image generation is not needed, not portable and really slow. Remove all the VM image generation code to make sure that only the image API is used. * gnu/build/vm.scm: Remove it. Move the qemu-command procedure to ... * gnu/build/marionette.scm: ... here. * gnu/local.mk (GNU_SYSTEM_MODULES): Adapt it. * tests/modules.scm: Ditto. * gnu/tests/install.scm: Ditto. * gnu/system/vm.scm: Adapt it and remove expression->derivation-in-linux-vm, qemu-img, system-qemu-image/shared-store and system-docker-image procedures. * doc/guix.texi (G-Expressions): Adapt it.
2021-12-23system: vm: Use the image API to generate QEMU images.Mathieu Othacehe

When volatile? is false, use a persistent, read-write storage. * gnu/system/vm.scm (common-qemu-options): Add a rw-image? argument to use a persistent storage. (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Add a volatile? argument and honor it. Use the image API to build the QEMU image. (<virtual-machine>)[volatile?]: New field. (virtual-machine-compiler): Pass the volatile? argument to the system-qemu-image/shared-store-script procedure.

2021-12-03system: vm: Remove the vga argument.Mathieu Othacehe
* gnu/system/vm.scm (common-qemu-options): Remove the "-vga std" argument that is the default since QEMU 2.2. Suggested-by: Attila Lendvai <attila@lendvai.name>
2021-12-03guix system vm: Add --no-graphic CLI argument.Attila Lendvai
It configures QEMU to use the tty it was started in for IO (as opposed to opening a separate graphical window). This enables copy-pasting and scrollback. Exit QEMU with C-a x. * gnu/system/vm.scm (system-qemu-image/shared-store-script): Also add the '-nographic' QEMU argument when called with #:graphic? #false. * guix/scripts/system.scm (system-derivation-for-action): Propagate the #:graphic? keyword arg. (perform-action): Add and propagate the #:graphic? keyword arg. (show-help): Add --no-graphic CLI arg. (%options): Process the new --no-graphic CLI arg. (process-action): Feed in the CLI arg through the #:graphic? keyword arg. * doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix system): Add example to combine guix system and invoking the vm start script into one command. Split the description of the various options into separate paragraphs. Add a paragraph to describe --no-graphic. Signed-off-by: Mathieu Othacehe <othacehe@gnu.org>
2021-11-20vm: <virtual-machine> defaults to using 'qemu-minimal'.Ludovic Courtès
'qemu-minimal' is enough for system tests, which is the main (only?) use of <virtual-machine>. * gnu/system/vm.scm (<virtual-machine>)[qemu]: Default to QEMU-MINIMAL.
