The extreme special case of "zero mode" files like `/etc/shadow`
comes up again. What we want is for "user mode" checkouts to
override it to make the file readable; otherwise when operating
as non-root without `CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE` it becomes very difficult
to work with.
Previously, we were hardlinking these files, but then it intersects
with *another* special case around zero sized files, which is
*also* true for `/etc/shadow`.
Trying to avoid hardlinking there unveiled this bug - when
we go to do a copy checkout, we need to override the mode.
This was only used in one place, and (especially with the simplification
with GMainContextPopDefault) and the one caller doesn't really do
much more than call the helper. Additionally, what little it does (saving
the result in the cache) is inherently tied to how the helper work,
and will become even more so when we support summary indexes.
This is a preparatory cleanup for supporting summary indexes. It
doesn't change any behaviour and passes make check on its own.
This loads and makes a digest for a delta superblock. The previous
code was used when generating the deltas section in the summary
file. This changes nothing, but is in preparation for using similar
formats in a separate delta index file.
The change in cbf1aca1d5c08d2f40832d16670484ba878d95fb actually
only mmaps the signature file, not the summary. This change makes
use mmap both, as well as extract the cache loading into a helper
function that we will later use in more places.
ostree_repo_list_static_delta_names() tried to validate that
any second-level directory element was a directory, but there was
a cut-and-paste issue, and it used `dent->d_type` instead
of `sub_dent->d_type`.
This fixes the code, but all old ostree versions will break if
there are non-directories in a subdirectory of the deltas directory
in the repo, so be wary.
Looking at
https://github.com/coreos/coreos-assembler/issues/1703
a user is getting a bare:
`error: fsetxattr: Permission denied`
I don't think it's these code paths since a deploy
isn't happening but on inspection I noticed we didn't
have error prefixing here.
Don't mention deprecation in the description for
`ostree_sysroot_deploy_tree` since there are legitimate use cases for it
(e.g. to create the first deployment via `ostree admin deploy`).
Instead, make the comment clearly redirect to the staging API when
booted into the sysroot.
Tighten up how we handle kargs here so it's more clear. When we call
`sysroot_finalize_deployment`, any karg overrides have already been set
on the bootconfig object of the deployment. So re-setting it here is
redundant and confusing.
I was thinking a bit more recently about the "live" changes
stuff https://github.com/coreos/rpm-ostree/issues/639
(particularly since https://github.com/coreos/rpm-ostree/pull/2060 )
and I realized reading the last debates in that issue that
there's really a much simpler solution; do exactly the same
thing we do for `ostree admin unlock`, except mount it read-only
by default.
Then, anything that wants to modify it does the same thing
libostree does for `/sysroot` and `/boot` as of recently; create
a new mount namespace and do the modifications there.
The advantages of this are numerous. First, we already have
all of the code, it's basically just plumbing through a new
entry in the state enumeration and passing `MS_RDONLY` into
the `mount()` system call.
"live" changes here also naturally don't persist, unlike what
we are currently doing in rpm-ostree.
These allow the `summary` and `summary.sig` files to be cached at a
higher layer (for example, flatpak) between related pull operations (for
example, within a single flatpak transaction). This avoids
re-downloading `summary.sig` multiple times throughout a transaction,
which increases the transaction’s latency and introduces the possibility
for inconsistency between parts of the transaction if the server changes
its `summary` file part-way through.
In particular, this should speed up flatpak transactions on machines
with high latency network connections, where network round trips have a
high impact on the latency of an overall operation.

We use a similar trick to having a `sysroot -> .` symlink on the real root
here to support both /boot on root as well as on a separate filesystem. No
matter how it's mounted `/boot/xyz` will always refer to the file you'd
expect.
This is nicer than my previous attempts at this because there's no
configuration nor auto-detection required.
The "new style" code generally avoids `goto err` because it conflicts
with `__attribute__((cleanup))`. This fixes a compiler warning.

If `glnx_make_lock_file` falls back to `flock`, on NFS this uses POSIX
locks (`F_SETLK`). As such, we need to be able to handle `EACCES` as
well as `EAGAIN` (see `fnctl(2)`).
I think this is what coreos-ostree-importer has been hitting, which runs
on RHEL7 in the Fedora infra and does locking over an NFS share where
multiple apps could concurrently pull things into the repo.
This came in with 5af403be0c but
was never implemented.
I noticed this now because the Rust ostree bindings generate a
wrapper for it which the linker tries to use.
This is the dual of 1f3c8c5b3d
where we output more detail when signapi fails to validate.
Extend the API to return a string for success, which we output
to stdout.
This will help the test suite *and* end users validate that the expected
thing is happening.
In order to make this cleaner, split the "verified commit" set
in the pull code into GPG and signapi verified sets, and have
the signapi verified set contain the verification string.
We're not doing anything with the verification string in the
pull code *yet* but I plan to add something like
`ostree pull --verbose` which would finally print this.
