The refactor of StepRegisterAmi to add the from_scratch parameter
incorrectly replaced iteration over image.BlockDeviceMappings with
iteration over the new mapping array when not using from_scratch. This
fixes the regression and renames the parameters to newMappings and
mappings for better clarity.
This adds an additional PostMountCommands step to the amazon-chroot
builder which executes after the volume is mounted, but before the
extra chroot mounts and copy step.
This provides an alternate mode for the amazon-chroot builder which uses
a blank volume to build the image. It adds StepPreMountCommands to
permit partitioning and format commands to be executed before mounting
the new volume.
This adds retry logic to the amazon/chroot builder. The builder
intermittently fails when ec2conn shows the volume in the attached
state but calling Volumes[0].Attachments return an empty array. The
fix adds a retry logic for when Volumes[0].Attachments has len 0 sleep
for 2 seconds and retry up to 30 times.
When the Volumes[0].Attachments is empty I find within 5 seconds the
Volumes[0].Attachments contains the correct value.

This commit moves the Amazon builders of Packer away from the Hashicorp
fork of the goamz library to the official AWS SDK for Go, in order that
third party plugins may depend on the more complete official library
more easily.
mount /dev/xvdf /mnt/point
while for an HVM image that is attached to /dev/sdf, its mount command is
mount /dev/xvdf1 /mnt/point
so this code enabled that
This reduces the number of simultaneous packer runs possible significantly, but unless you are Netflix, who have Aminator anyway, this is probably never going to be an issue
According to be5adb92b5, the UploadDir
method supports two ways of copying depending on whether a trailing
slash is used:
src = "dir" -> dest/dir
src = "dir/" -> dest
On BSD-based systems (such as OSX, FreeBSD, etc.) the `cp -R` command
handles these two cases automatically. However, Linux treats "src/" and
"src" the same.
To support the trailing slash syntax portably, we can use:
src = "dir" -> dest/dir
src = "dir/." -> dest
This works on BSD and Linux. It is better than using wildcards as it
grabs hidden files as well.
This fixes#1196 that prevents the chef-solo provisioner from working
with the chroot builder.
