The cache shouldn't be affected by the user passing in some other
summary as it may not be the "official one".
I ran into this in flatpak where the passed summary was correct, but
the re-saving of the cache updated the mtime of the cached file which
led to later http If-Modified-Since calls failing to update.
As detailed in
gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/600#note_877282, volatile
isn't actually needed in these contexts because the atomic operations
already give us strong enough guarantees. In GCC 11, this triggers a
diagnostic due to the volatile qualifier getting dropped anyway.
There is a WIP to do the same in glib:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/1719
This obsoletes this downstream patch:
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ostree/c/b8c5a6fb
I got:
src/libostree/ostree-repo.c:5232: Warning: OSTree: ostree_repo_gpg_sign_data: unknown parameter 'out_signature' in documentation comment, should be 'out_signatures'
The timeout timer should always be one-shot, so let's just always
destroy it in the callback. The main context has its own ref on it, so
it won't be freed behind its back.
This *should* fix a leak that was brought up in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1891761.

...with the `sysroot.bootloader` configuration option. This can be useful
when converting a system to use `ostree` which doesn't currently have a
bootloader configuration that `ostree` can automatically detect, and is
also useful in combination with the `--sysroot` option when provisioning a
rootfs for systems other than the one you're running `ostree admin deploy`
on.
It's easier to extend and it centralises the config parsing. In other
places we will no longer need to use `g_str_equal` to match these values,
a `switch` statement will be sufficient.
If we have a commit id for all the refs we're pulling, and if we
don't need the summary to list all the refs when mirroring then the
only reason to download the summary is for the list of deltas.
With the new "indexed-deltas" property in the config file (and mirrored
to the summary file) we can detect when we don't need the summary for
deltas and completely avoid downloading it then.
Clients can use these during pull and avoid downloading the summary if
needed, or use the indexed-deltas instead of relying on the ones in
the summary which may be left out.
It is useful to be able to trigger this without having to regenerate
the summary. For example, if you are not using summaries, or ar generating
the summaries yourself.
When we update the summary file (and its list of deltas) we also update
all delta indexes. The index format is a single `a{sv}` variant identical
to the metadata-part of the summary with (currently) only the
`ostree.static-deltas` key.
Since we expect most delta indexes to change rarely, we avoid
unnecessary writes when reindexing. New indexes are compared to
existing ones and only the changed ones are written to disk. This
avoids unnecessary write load and mtime changes on the repo server.
This gets the subpath for a delta index file, which is of the form
"delta-indexes/$commit.index", that contains all the deltas going
to the particular commit.
This makes it testable, and increases its test coverage too 100% of
lines, as measured by `make coverage`.

This is basic support for the
Last-Modified/ETag/If-Modified-Since/If-None-Match headers. It’s not
high performance, and doesn’t support all of the related caching
features (like the If-Match header, etc.).

As `summary` and `summary.sig` aren’t immutable, HTTP requests to
download them can be optimised by sending the `If-None-Match` and
`If-Modified-Since` headers to avoid unnecessarily re-downloading them
if they haven’t changed since last being checked.
Hook them up to the new support for that in the fetcher.
The `ETag` and `Last-Modified` for each file in the cache are stored as
the `user.etag` xattr and the mtime, respectively. For flatpak, for
example, this affects the cached files in
`~/.local/share/flatpak/repo/tmp/cache/summaries`.
If xattrs aren’t supported, or if the server doesn’t support the caching
headers, the pull behaviour is unchanged from before.

Add support in the soup and curl fetchers to send the `If-None-Match`
and `If-Modified-Since` request headers, and pass on the `ETag` and
`Last-Modified` response headers.
This currently introduces no functional changes, but once call sites
provide the appropriate integration, this will allow HTTP caching to
happen with requests (typically with metadata requests, where the data
is not immutable due to being content-addressed). That should reduce
bandwidth requirements.

Alternative to https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/2197
Python's (usually) zero-sized `__init__.py` files can provoke
us hitting the hardlink limits on some filesystems (`EMLINK`).
At least one Fedora rpm-ostree user hit this.
The benefits of hardlinking here are quite marginal; lots
of hardlinks can behave suboptimally in particular filesystems
like BTRFS too.
This builds on prior code which made this an option, introduced
in 673cacd633
Now we just do it uncondtionally.
Also this provoked a different bug in a very obscure user mode checkout
case; when the "real" permissions were different from the "physical"
permissions, we would still hardlink. Fix the test case for this.
Re-using the `refs` variable for the main list of refs, plus the
iterated lists, meant that the main list was never freed (although all
the iterated ones were freed correctly).
Fix this by using two variables rather than reusing the one.

Currently, they are set in the `config` file and cause that to be
downloaded on every pull. Given that the client is already pulling the
`summary` file, it makes sense to avoid an additional network round trip
and cache those options in the `summary` file.

In FCOS and RHCOS, the need to configure software in the initramfs has
come up multiple times. Sometimes, using kernel arguments suffices.
Other times, it really must be a configuration file. Rebuilding the
initramfs on the client-side however is a costly operation. Not only
does it add complexity to the update workflow, it also erodes a lot of
the value obtained from using the baked "blessed" initramfs from the
tree itself.
One elegant way to address this is to allow specifying multiple
initramfses. This is supported by most bootloaders (notably GRUB) and
results in each initrd being overlayed on top of each other.
This patch allows libostree clients to leverage this so that they can
avoid regenerating the initramfs entirely. libostree itself is agnostic
as to what kind and how much data overlay initrds contain. It's up to
the clients to enforce such boundaries.
To implement this, we add a new ostree_sysroot_stage_overlay_initrd
which takes a file descriptor and returns a checksum. Then users can
pass these checksums when calling the deploy APIs via the new array
option `overlay_initrds`. We copy these files into `/boot` and add them
to the BLS as another `initrd` entry.
And make the `override_kernel_argv` one of those options. This is mostly
a mechanical move here, no functional change otherwise.
Prep for adding a new option.
When support for devicetree was added, it created a problem
because old and new ostree versions would compute different
checksums for the "boot data". The scenario here is:
- Have system with ostree < 2020.4
- Reboot into system with ostree 2020.5
- Try to perform an operation that would retain
that previous booted deployment (common)
Currently ostree iterates over all the deployments
that will be retained and calls `install_deployment_kernel()`,
even for the booted one (which is a bit silly), but
just to verify that all boot data for the targeted
deployments are installed.
This then re-computes the checksum and we'd trip this
assertion.
In practice though, we don't strictly require them to match;
the only thing that will happen if they don't is that we'll
end up with another copy of the kernel/initramfs - and
that only temporarily until the previous deployment
gets GC'd.
Longer term, I think what we really want to do anyways
is probably closer to like a little ostree repo for `/boot`
so that we can e.g. still hardlink kernels there even if
the initramfs changes, or hardlink both kernel/initramfs
if just the devicetree changes, etc.

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.
Add a new function `ostree_repo_static_delta_execute_offline_with_signature`
which takes a signature engine to verify the delta before applying it.
The `ostree_repo_static_delta_execute_offline` is just a wrapper to this
new function, passing a NULL signature engine.
When this function is called without signature engine, but with a sign
delta, it will only fails if `sign-verify-deltas` is set to true in repo
core options.
This commits move signature existence check and delta signature
verification to share common parts between existing APIs and the new
function.

While the commits contained in the single static-delta file are signed so
we can check them and operate on trusted data, the superblock isn't signed
in any way, so it end up operating on untrusted data to:
1. actually find where the trusted data is, and
2. check whether the update is fit for the current device by looking at
the collection id stored in the metadata
This commit generates signatures of all static data, and concatenate them
to the existing static delta format, i.e. as a GVariant layout `a{sv}ay`
where
- a{sv}: signatures
- ay: existing delta variant

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.
When we remount `/sysroot` as read-only, we also make `/etc` read-only.
This is usually OK because we then remount `/var` read-write, which also
flips `/etc` back to read-write... unless `/var` is a separate
filesystem and not a bind-mount to the stateroot `/var`.
Fix this by just remounting `/etc` read-write in the read-only sysroot
case.
Eventually, I think we should rework this to set everything up the way
we want from the initramfs (#2115). This would also eliminate the window
during which `/etc` is read-only while `ostree-remount` runs.
We were bind-mounting the initramfs' `/etc` (to itself) instead of the
target deployment `/etc` (to itself). Since we're already `chdir`'ed
into it, we can just drop the leading slash.
