Instead, use OstreeRepoFile as a handle for the parent commit.
We need to add an accessor for the metadata checksum, as that
hasn't been exposed before.

We can't quite do it for bare repositories yet because we need to have
a way to go from struct stat -> GFileInfo, and that's buried in gio's
private GLocalFile class.
Just use openat() for locating variants, rather than doing the lstat()
+ open(). This also drops several malloc+object allocations from the
lookup path.
Add new internal API to both fstatat() and write a pathname for the
given object. Use it in commit, and also wrapped in the old
GFile-based API.
This is more efficient.
Rather than having separate write_ref calls, make clients start a
transaction, add some refs, and then commit it. While this doesn't
make it 100% atomic, it makes it easier for us to use an atomic
model, and it means we don't do as much I/O updating the summary
file and such.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707644
An earlier version of this API acted like git in that some objects
would be staged in a temporary directory which would be then committed
in one go by moving files around. The API doesn't match most users
expectations though, as while the stage is nice as a high-level API
it isn't really suited for low-level APIs.
While the stage was removed, the APIs were never renamed. Rename
them now so that they match expectations.

This avoids repeatedly traversing the target pathname, and is just
more efficient.
Part of a prelude to using fd-relative API for the source object path
too.
Update libgsystem submodule for a bugfix.
This is both more efficient from a kernel perspective, and avoids us
calling gs_file_get_path_cached() on tmp_dir constantly, which
triggered another bug due to lack of locking.
It's now isolated almost entirely to ostree-core.c, except
ostree-repo.c needs to know how to create archive-z2 file headers. So
give it a private API for that.
See the new comment in the source; basically if we're fetching content
over http, then someone with the capability to MITM the network could
create a transient setuid binary on disk with arbitrary content. If
they also had a process running on the system (such as an application)
it could be escalated to root.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707139
There's not a good reason to write small things such as repo/config to
the filesystem, only to read them back in again. Change the
non-partial API to just return a stream, then read it into a memory
buffer.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707157
I think originally we had the .part/.done separation because we were
trying to support partial downloads of files like repo/config and
repo/refs.
But now that the http server configuration won't give us partial
results, we don't need to support caching those files between runs.
And thus, there's no reason to have the .part/.done and do the dance
with renaming them.
When fetching objects/ and other things that use _with_async, we
continue to use _append_to(), and if the returned range tells us we
have all the bytes, then we hand the full file over to the caller.
Don't attempt to shortcut in the case where the last run told us we
already have the object; the object fetcher code will not make a
request.
While we're here, also clean up use of GError and consistently use the
cancellable from the pending.

Extracting the code for parse_ostree_cmdline() and running it on some
test input (on RHEL6.4 glibc), I can reproduce the odd behavior from
getline() where it apparently returns the size of the default malloc
buffer in the size output, and some non-zero value.
This behavior would be OK except that it breaks the logic for
stripping off the trailing newline, which in turn breaks booting
because we return "ostree=foo\n".
This has worked so far in gnome-ostree because syslinux apparently
injects initrd=/path/to/initrd as a final kernel argment.
Anyways, we don't handle NUL characters here in /proc/cmdline, so
let's just call strlen () to be safe.

Behave similar to git when 'ostree commit' is run without
a --subject or --body. Bring up an editor. The first line becomes
the subject and following lines become the --body after an optional
blank line.
Use similar logic to git in determining EDITOR

Fold in fetch_uri to fetch_uri_utf8(), and rename the latter to
include _sync as a suffix, since it's synchronous.
Improve the status line to show when we're fetching a synchronous URI;
previously we just showed "Scanning metadata".
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707023
Use a consistent temporary filename to download uri's.
Check for downloaded files before fetching from uri.
Download to hash.part file, then copy/move to hash.done when complete.
Add argument support to setup_fake_remote_repo1 function.
Add test for pull resume.
To implement this, pass --force-range-requests into the trivial-httpd,
which will only serve half of the objects to clients at a time.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706344
Pull the cleanup code to a helper function, and ensure we delete
leftover temporary files also when aborting a transaction. Mainly
this will happen if a local 'ostree commit' fails.
While we're here, also change it to use gs_shutil_rm_rf() which also
handles directories, should we start using those.

It turns out every builtin (with one special exception) that takes a
repo argument did the same thing; let's just centralize it. The
special exception was "ostree init --repo=foo" where foo is expected
to *not* actually be a repo. In that case, simply skip the
ostree_repo_check() invocation.

We removed support for writing "related objects" from ostree commits

Currently, when deploying an OSTree that does not contain a
bootloader configuration it fails with the following message:
"No known bootloader configuration detected"
A bootloader configuration is not strictly necessary if the
bootloader used is able to parse /boot/loader/entries on boot.
So, failing to deploy seems to be a little harsh. It is better
to just not write the bootloader configuration if a previous
one was not found but still swap the bootversion.

Before, we were writing the "bootversion", which is either 0 or 1, for
all entries. This is completely wrong; the idea of the "version"
field is to compare between entries.
Fix this by writing out the inverted index - internally, index 0 is
the *first* boot entry, so we give it the highest version number, and
index N is the last, so give it version 0.
Then fix the deployment sorting code to correctly reverse the version
number comparison, so we read back the right order.
In practice before this bug didn't matter because "normally" you only
have at most two deployments.

The way we recurse into subdirectories in parallel makes it far too
easy to hit up against the arbitrary Linux fd limit of 1024.
Since the fix here is about dropping parallelism, let's just go all
the way for now and make a plain old synchronous API =(
This does simplify both internal callers which wanted a sync API
anyways.

This patch adds support to generate files that
can be used by Universal Bootloader (U-Boot).
U-Boot allows to modify boards default boot commands by
reading and executing a bootscript file or importing a
plain text file that contains environment variables that
could parameterize the boot command or a bootscript.
OSTree generates a uEnv.txt file that contains booting
information that is taken from Boot Loader Specification
snippets files as defined in the new OSTree deployment model:
https://wiki.gnome.org/OSTree/DeploymentModel2
On deploy or upgrade an uEnv.txt env var file is created
in the path /boot/loader.${bootversion}/uEnv.txt. Also, a
/boot/uEnv.txt symbolic link to loader/uEnv.txt is created
so U-Boot can always import the file from a fixed path.
Since U-Boot does not support a menu to list a set of
Operative Systems, the most recent bootloader configuration
from the list is used.
To boot an OSTree using the generated uEnv.txt file, a
board has to parameterize its default boot command using the
following variables defined by OSTree:
${kernel_image}: path to the Linux kernel image
${ramdisk_image}: path to the initial ramdisk image
${bootargs}: parameters passed to the kernel command line
Alternatively, for boards that don't support this scheme,
a bootscript that overrides the default boot command can be used.
An example of such a bootscript could be:
setenv scriptaddr 40008000
setenv kernel_addr 0x40007000
setenv ramdisk_addr 0x42000000
ext2load mmc 0:1 ${scriptaddr} uEnv.txt
env import -t ${scriptaddr} ${filesize}
ext2load mmc 0:1 ${kernel_addr} ${kernel_image}
ext2load mmc 0:1 ${ramdisk_addr} ${ramdisk_image}
bootm ${kernel_addr} ${ramdisk_addr}

We'll always have "bare" mode for keeping files-as-hardlinks as root.
But "archive" was my second attempt at a format for non-root file
storage, used by the gnome-ostree buildsystem which runs as non-root.
It was really handy to have a "tar" like mode where I can create
tarballs as a user, that contain files owned by root for example.
The "archive" mode stored content files as two pieces in the
filesystem; ".file" contained metadata, and ".filecontent" was the
actual content, uncompressed. The nice thing about this was that to
check out a tree as non-root, you could just hardlink into the repo.
However, archive was fairly bad for serving via HTTP; it required
*two* HTTP requests per content object, greatly magnifing the already
inefficient fetch process. So "archive-z2" was introduced.
To allow gnome-ostree to still check out trees as a user, the
"uncompressed-object-cache" was introduced, and that's how things have
been working for a while.
So we should just be able to kill this code. Specifically note just
how much better the stage_object() function became.

Debian uses /lib/systemd/system for system unit files, while i'm
putting ostree under the /usr prefix which means the hardcoded path
fails. Leave it to configure to work out the right location for systemd
units (method copied from pollkit).
Furthermore instead of installing the unit in local-fs.target.wants by
hand add a [Install] section so systemctl enable does the right thing

We have APIs to load metadata as variants, and files as parsed
content/info/xattrs, but for some cases such as static deltas, all we
want is to operate on all objects in their canonical representation.

We used to have a version of this, but since I'm trying to use
GBytes more, this became a more common operation, and it's annoying

This will be used to test resuming interrupted downloads for
ostree-pull.
With this option, if a whole file is asked for, only half of the file

we'll give them the other half.

If we pass XATTR_REPLACE then the attribute must already exist, which

# ostree --repo /path/to/repo commit ...

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705903
While the actual commit object format is presently the same, for a
number of reasons we'd like to change it fairly radically. Among
other things, we need to drop our a{sv} types in objects, to protect
against GVariant changing format.
Since now gnome-ostree now longer uses related objects, and nothing
ever used metadata, just drop them both.
If the admin encounters corruption and does:
$ ostree admin fsck --delete
We want them to be able to recover the objects easily from the
network; with this patch, they do:
$ ln -s dummyvalue /ostree/repo/transaction
$ ostree refs --delete remotename:branchname
$ ostree pull remotename
This patch avoids the need for the refs --delete; we might as well
force scan the commit, and with this patch we still print that it
changed.
We may revive this later, but commits in their current form aren't
very useful for humans to read, so it doesn't make sense to have a
tool to show a history of useless stuff.
More interesting things are diffs between commits, object statistics,
etc.
Otherwise it's really easy to keep accumulating deployments. Also, we
may want to run this after rebooting, so we're back down to one
operating system.
And disable devino scan by default. For the gnome-ostree build case,
our commits are from "make install DESTDIR=", so they won't be
hardlinks into the repo. In that case, particularly as the repository
size grows, the cost of building up the devino -> checksum mapping
becomes a problem.
The compose step will use this option though.
While the first was useful way back in the day when we were importing
Debian bits and /sbin/init was expecting to find /dev/.initctl as a
named pipe, that's no longer an issue with systemd since it uses
dynamic Unix sockets.
Likewise, character and block devices in /dev are now dynamically
created by the devtmpfs from the kernel.
Less complexity and code here if we just support directories, regular
files, and symbolic links.
Calling it "cleanup" is better since it does more than repo pruning.
We were also doing a prune twice; ot_admin_cleanup() already does one,
so drop the bits to do it in cleanup.c.
