mtime of 0 has been the semantics of ostree deployments from basically
the beginning of the project. We (and others, see
flatpak/flatpak@b5204c9) rely on that fact when generating trees.
In particular, this affects caches that use the mtime of the
associated file or directory to determine if the cache is valid. By
arbitrarily changing the mtime of the files to something else, all
the caches we setup in the build are now invalidated. Preseeding
caches is really important to the user experience as it avoids
having the user wait while they're regenerated on first run.
Now, we could change our build infrastructure to preset all the
mtimes to 1 to match this change, but what does that do for our
existing users who are on an ostree that deploys with mtimes of 0?
We could just revert this change at Endless (and the associated one
in Flatpak), and that would be fine for our users. However, if we
point non-Endless users to our apps, they'll have the great
experience of waiting 10 seconds the first time they launch it while
the fontconfig cache is rebuilt unnecessarily.

While converting the mirrorlist code from using GSList to GPtrArray, I
completely missed the fact that there is now a much cleaner way to do
this.
Closes: #484
Approved by: cgwalters
This commit adds mirrorlist support to the fetcher. Users can now
prepend url or/and contenturl by mirrorlist= to interpret the link as a
mirrorlist.
If an object is not found, the fetcher will automatically try the next
mirror in the order given in the list (assuming the order returned by
the server is significant).
Closes: #469
Approved by: cgwalters
This made sense back when we used a main loop even when we needed to
fetch objects synchronously. Nowadays, we no longer actually update
progress before the FETCHING_OBJECTS phase, which is only for async
requests.
This allows us to get rid of fetch_uri_contents_membuf_sync() and to
generalize fetch_uri_contents_utf8_sync() so that it only requires a
fetcher. This will be needed later.
Closes: #469
Approved by: cgwalters
Allow users to pass a --contenturl during `remote add` and store it in
the remote config.
Fish out the contenturl setting from the remote config and use it when
downloading static deltas and objects (except for commit signatures).
The idea here is that items in the trust chain (summary & sigs) can be
fetched from a more secure e.g. TLS-pinned location, while objects
themselves are fetched from another location. Once mirrorlist support is
added, this use-case will become even more advantageous.

OSTree function ostree_repo_pull_with_options starts a
series of operations that makes heavy use of the PullData's
cancellable.
This isn't effective, however, since nowhere in the code
the OtPullData.cancellable field is set. This is visible,
for example, when trying to cancel a Flatpak pull and nothing
happens, because the cancellable is not properly passed
to the pull data.
Fix that by setting the cancellable field of the pull data. It
owns a reference for safety reasons, and unreferences it at the
end of the operation.

We hold a fd open on this, and it's basically now expected
to be immortal. Confer that status.
This was showing up in flatpak crashers, because we'd get
an unexpected errno.
(I didn't test this fixes the crasher, but it's clearly right)

I noticed seeing the output of `prune` twice in rpm-ostree, and had
always wondered why. When reading the rpm-ostree code to fix
something else, reasons, I noticed the reason - we were pruning once
here, and then once after rpm-ostree regenerates its "base" refs.
There's no reason to clean twice, so let's add a flag so rpm-ostree
can suppress doing it inside libostree.

It's close-on-exec, not close-on-fork. I was clearly confused when
writing this; it works just fine to reference the fd in the child and
`fchdir()` before exec. So drop the unnecessary duplication.
Just noticed this while reading the code for a random other reason.

With this patch, an admin (system builder) can now:
1) Edit /usr/lib/ostree-boot/uEnv.txt
2) Deploy the new tree. OSTree will append system's uEnv.txt
to the OSTree's managed uEnv.txt (loader/uEnv.txt).
It is common for u-boot systems to read in an extra env
from external /uEnv.txt. The same file OSTree uses to pass
in its env. With this patch /uEnv.txt now contains OSTree's
env + custom env added by system builders.

When doing a prune, we should not try to delete objects in parent
repos, since it'll fail. There is a bigger discussion about the
semantics of `parent=` to be had, but this will fix trying to use
`ostree prune --repo=/ostree/repo/extensions/rpmostree/pkgcache`.

In CentOS, these happened to appear in a repo that is served
via rsync, and having them not be world-readable caused mirroring
tools to fail.
They aren't secret, so don't make them so.

We used to only look at the "gpg-verify" and "gpg-verify-summary"
options when we're passed a local URL. Make these options also have an
effect in the configured remote case.

The documentation says this is ignored, implying that you should pass
NULL to it. However, the function immediately returns in this case even
though the argument isn't used anywhere.

Why not to use libexecdir?
Because this directory does not exist on some distros or paths
between distros varies. There are several reasons why a well
known path is prefered, for example when generating a kernel
command line:
init=${ostree}/usr/lib/ostree-boot/ostree-prepare-root
In addition this saves us some typing in a console when wanting
to access the "ostree" cmd line.

For local pulls there's no benefit pulling the static delta over the
individual object files since there's no HTTP overhead. Furthermore,
processing deltas always generates the objects whereas a standard pull
ensures that the exact object files are copied. Using deltas also
prevents hardlinking the objects if the repos exist on the same
filesystem.

You need to supply an argument to F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC or fcntl will return
EINVAL. Use 3 as the minimum fd number as is standard.

Since we already had a "recursive copy" implementation here, let's
reuse it rather than the libgsystem `gs_shutil_cp_a()`. Part of the
libglnx porting.

It handles ownership of the `DIR*` for us more cleanly, and
is just a better API.
This is in preparation for further changes to this code to do SELinux
labeling while copying.

I forgot to actually remove `config_file` in the previous
commit, the txn lock hasn't been used in a long time, and
for the uncompressed cache, everything uses the fd already.

I think we'd end up closing stdin...yuck. Need to investigate
having this be fatal, but CentOS 7 `gcc-4.8.5` doesn't understand
`-Werror=int-conversion`.

We have a better API now, drop use of the internal helper, which also
depended on libgsystem.
This required bumping libglnx to pull in a fix.
Closes: #429
Approved by: giuseppe
Since this is a new API, and adding booleans is the most likely thing
we'll do, let's stick some explicit padding for them in here now.
We could use the `unused_ints[]` but it'd be out of order, and this
will more clearly remind people about the padding. The efficiency hit
versus bitfields is annoying, but oh well, not a real world problem.
Closes: #427
Approved by: giuseppe
Since we're adding a new API, we have the opportunity to fix
the defaults. We expect clients to do a `syncfs()` or equivalent
on their own now, since it's way more efficient.
Flip the checkout fsync default to off.
Closes: #425
Approved by: giuseppe
This was the last use of libgsystem tmpfile APIs. The change here is
a bit uglier than it needs to be because we support creating the delta
in place as well as in the repo, so we needed to abstract over
locations.
Closes: #424
Approved by: giuseppe
Inlining this is uglier, but this code kind of sucks anyways =( We're
going to need to do some fd-relative porting in here at some point.
Closes: #424
Approved by: giuseppe
In one case, we already had relative fds and hence this was
nicer. Unfortunately the other areas got uglier. More fd-relative
porting to do later.
Closes: #424

In general we want to support "idempotentcy" or "state
synchronization" across interruption. If a repo is only partially
created due to a crash or whatever, it's hard for a user to know that.
Let's just make `ostree_repo_create()` idempotent. Since all we're
doing is a set of `mkdirat()` invocations, it's quite simple.
This also involved porting to fd-relative, which IMO makes the
code a lot clearer.

If a static delta is generated between 2 commits with the same content,
then the delta will contain 1 part with no checksums. While useless,
this is a valid delta that shouldn't raise an assertion. If the delta
part has no checksums, then there are no objects to recreate and the
processing can be skipped.

In general this is even cleaner now, though it was better after I
