A local disk volume that sets both image and size ignored the size. This resulted in a disk at the size of the image rootfs while the requested size got ignored.. See the issue for the full write-up.

Proposed Changes

  • localdisk.Apply passes both options when image and size are set.
  • Exec.Create extends the file to the requested size with os.Truncate.
  • Guardrails and tests (cannot request undersized volumes or truncate the image)

Leaving Size unset preserves the current behaviour and the rootfs is matched.

Fixes #776

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for configuring local disk sizes when creating disks from boot images.
    • Disk images are expanded to the requested size when applicable.
    • Empty disks receive a default size when no size is specified.
    • Source image size is preserved when no larger size is requested.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented creation when the requested size is smaller than the source image.
    • Added validation for missing, zero, or negative disk sizes.
    • Failed disk creation no longer leaves behind incomplete disk files.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Local disk creation now applies requested sizes when a source image is present. Raw disk creation expands source-backed files, rejects invalid sizes, and removes failed destination files. Tests cover raw creation, negative local disk sizes, and a 10GB boot disk.

Changes

Source-backed disk sizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Raw disk sizing and validation
internal/raw/raw_exec.go, internal/raw/raw_exec_test.go, internal/raw/raw_suite_test.go
Exec.Create expands source-backed disks, rejects non-positive sizes and undersized requests, and removes failed destination files. Ginkgo and Gomega specs cover source-backed and empty disk creation.
Local disk size propagation
internal/plugins/volume/localdisk/..., internal/controllers/machine_controller_test.go
Apply passes source and size options together and rejects negative sizes. Tests verify failed creation leaves no disk and that a boot disk with a 10GB limit creates a 10GB file.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Do not remove a destination that this call did not create.

Exec.Create does not require filename to be nonexistent, and localdisk.Apply checks existence separately from Create. If filename already exists, Create(filename, raw.WithSize(0)) returns from validation with err set, then the deferred os.Remove(filename) can delete the existing destination. The caller-side check is not atomic.

Create the disk at an exclusive or temporary path, and remove only a path owned by this invocation.

Confirmed with a test, the suggested solution with the temp path is nonsense. On it.

@brsmnv, thanks for testing this. The temporary-path recommendation was too specific. Please use an approach that preserves an existing destination and removes only a file created by this Exec.Create invocation. I will review the revised implementation.

All comments and findings should be resolved now. @friegger

Please do check internal/server/machine_internal_test.go as I decided against Ginkgo here. Let me know if that's okay.

Going with plain testing means that the tests can run independently from the integration suite (which requires libvirt). The related change wasnt absolutely necessary, but I think it helps reject invalid requests early on. Helps with misleading status conditions downstream.
