We want a case where we can disable the min-free-space check. Initially,
it felt like to add a OSTREE_REPO_PULL_FLAGS_DISABLE_FREE_SPACE_CHECK but
the problem is prepare_transaction() does not have a OstreeRepoPullFlags
parameter which we can parse right here. On top of it, prepare_transaction()
enforces min-free-space check and won't let the transaction proceed if
the check failed.
This is pretty bad in conjunction with "inherit-transaction" as what
Flatpak uses. There is no way to disable this check unless we remove
it altogether from prepare_transaction.
This issue came out to light when flatpak wasn't able to write metadata
after fetching from remote:
[uajain@localhost ~]$ flatpak remote-info flathub org.kde.Platform//5.9
error: min-free-space-size 500MB would be exceeded
Metadata objects helps in housekeeping and restricting them means
restricting crucial UX (like search, new updates) functionalities
in clients like gnome-software. The error banners originated from
these issues are also abrupt and not much helpful to the user. This
is the specific instance of the issue this patches tries to address.
See https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/2139 for discussion.

Rather than manually starting the `ostree-finalize-staged.service` unit,
we can leverage systemd's path units for this. It fits quite nicely too,
given that we already have a path we drop iif we have a staged
deployment.
To give some time for the preset to make it to systems, we don't yet
drop the explicit call to `systemctl start`. Though we do make it
conditional based on a DEBUG env var so that we can actually test it in
CI for now. Once we're sure this has propagated, we can drop the
`systemctl start` path and the env var together.

Copying the xattrs on metadata objects is wrong in general, we
don't "own" them. Notably this would fail in the situation of
doing a pull from e.g. a `bare-user` source to a destination
that was on a different mount point (so we couldn't hardlink),
and the source had e.g. a `security.selinux` attribute.

For `rpm-ostree ex livefs` we have a use case of pushing a rollback
deployment. There's no reason this should require deleting the staged
deployment (and doing so actually breaks livefs which tries to access
it as a data source).
I was initially very conservative here, but I think it ends up
being fairly easy to retain the staged deployment. We need to handle
two cases:
First, when the staged is *intentionally* deleted; here, we just need
to unlink the `/run` file, and then everything will be sync'd up after
reloading.
Second, (as in the livefs case) where we're retaining it,
e.g. adding a deployment to the end. What I realized here is that
we can have the code keep `new_deployments` as view without staged,
and then when we do the final reload we'll end up re-reading it from
disk anyways.

Similar to min-free-space-percent but it supports specific sizes
(in MB, GB or TB). Also, making min-free-space-percent and -size
mutually exclusive.
min-free-space-percent does not give a fine tuning of the free disk
space that a user might decide to keep. It can translate to very large
size (e.g. 1% = ~10GB on 1TB HDD) or very small (e.g. 1% = ~330MB on 32GB
system like Endless devices). Hence, it makes sense to introduce a config
option to honor specific size as per the user.

I feel like I'm drowning in a pile of experimental-but-almost-stable
features...
Anyways, since we made the feature opt-in in rpm-ostree in
https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/pull/1352
let's mirror that a bit here with an environment variable so people
can play with it more easily.
The tests needed some tweaks; specifically we need to reload the
status fact after making changes. I'm still a bit uncertain
about the Ansible-as-tests.
But we add an upgrade test that uses the new environment variable.

OK so I noticed that something was failing and we were missing
`set -xeuo pipefail` in our shells. That of course revealed
the ansible tests didn't actually work - my only defense
here is spending so much time fighting to get it through CI
and trying something new.
Anyways, to make the staged-deploy tests work we need a task
that actually uses `rpm-ostree override` rather than `usroverlay`.
Let's make this a bit saner and have a clean split between
tests that are "shell-script+usroverlay" and "ansible+override".
Closes: #1577

These are further fixes based on running more of the rpm-ostree
test suite.
When dropping the staged deployment, we do need to do the
"post operations" such as bumping the sysroot mtime, so that
clients know something changed. We also need to regenerate
the deployment refs. And of course do a sysroot reload.
Also, add a "base cleanup" after creating a staged deployment
which also regenerates the refs.

The fact that `ostree admin deploy` always itself loaded the
merge kargs masked a bug in the core. Let's change our tests
to not pass any kernel arguments to ensure we cover this.
The new logic in the CLI is a bit subtle, but if you read
carefully is a lot clearer I believe. Basically we have one
of a few "starting points" in the first section, which can
then be further augmented.

This took a whole lot of experimentation. I hit upon the idea

Followup to: https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1503
After starting some more work on on this in rpm-ostree, it is
actually simpler if the staged deployment just shows up in the list.
It's effectively opt-in today; down the line we may make it the default,
but I worry about breaking things that e.g. assume they can mutate
the deployment before rebooting and have `/etc` already merged.
There's not that many things in libostree that iterate over the deployment
list. The biggest change here is around the
`ostree_sysroot_write_deployments_with_options` API. I initially
tried hard to support a use case like "push a rollback" while retaining
the staged deployment, but everything gets very messy because that
function truly is operating on the bootloader list.
For now what I settled on is to just discard the staged deployment;
down the line we can enhance things.
Where we then have some new gymnastics is around implementing
the finalization; we need to go to some effort to pull the staged
deployment out of the list and mark it as unstaged, and then pass
it down to `write_deployments()`.

Add API to write a deployment state to `/run/ostree/staged-deployment`,
along with a systemd service which runs at shutdown time.
This is a big change to the ostree model for hosts,
but it closes a longstanding set of bugs; many, many people have
hit the "losing changes in /etc" problem. It also avoids
the other problem of racing with programs that modify `/etc`
such as LVM backups:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1365297
We need this in particular to go to a full-on model for
automatically updated host systems where (like a dual-partition model)
everything is fully prepared and the reboot can be taken

It's better than what we were doing before for installed tests,
and moreover using Ansible more broadly for testing is going
to align us better with Fedora's CI.
As part of this I split off a "libpaprci" which I intend to maintain
as a "copylib" for a little bit between ostree/rpm-ostree, and then
we'll figure out how to expand from there (maybe some of the patterns
get "baked in" to PAPR for example).
Note the `FAH27-insttests` context moves to the top since it's now
of primary importance, and I expect that we start expanding it.

When a new object is added to the repository, create a
$PAYLOAD-SHA256.payload-link symlink file as well. The target of the
symlink is the checksum of the object that was added the repository.
Whenever we add a new object file, in addition to lookup if the file is
already present with the same checksum we also check if an object with
the same payload is in the repository.
If a file with the same payload is already present in the repository, we
copy it with `glnx_regfile_copy_bytes` that internally attempts to
create a reflink (ioctl (..., FICLONE, ..)) to the target file if the
file system supports it. This enables to have objects that share the
payload but have a different inode and xattrs.
By default the payload-link-threshold value is G_MAXUINT64 that disables
the feature.

This is analogous to the filtering support for the commit API: we allow
library users to skip over checking out specific files. This is useful
in some tricky situations where we *know* that the files to be checked
out will conflict with existing files in subtle ways.
One such example is in rpm-ostree support for multilib. There, we want
to allow checking out a package onto an existing tree, but skipping over
files that are not coloured to our preferred value (e.g. not overwriting
an i686 version of `ldconfig` if we already have the `x86_64` version).

SPDX License List is a list of (common) open source
licenses that can be referred to by a “short identifier”.
It has several advantages compared to the common "license header texts"
usually found in source files.
Some of the advantages:
* It is precise; there is no ambiguity due to variations in license header
text
* It is language neutral
* It is easy to machine process
* It is concise
* It is simple and can be used without much cost in interpreted
environments like java Script, etc.
* An SPDX license identifier is immutable.
* It provides simple guidance for developers who want to make sure the
license for their code is respected

This is more subtle fallout from:
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1170
AKA commit: 8fe4536257
Before, if we found a devino cache hit, we'd use it unconditionally.
Recall that `bare-user` repositories are very special in that they're the only
mode where the on disk state ("physical state") is not the "real" state. The
latter is stored in the `user.ostreemeta` xattr. (`bare-user` repos are also
highly special in that symlinks are regular files physically, but that's not
immediately relevant here).
Since we now have `bare-user-only` for the "pure unprivileged container" case,
`bare-user` should just be used for "OS builds" which have nonzero uids (and
possibly SELinux labels etc.)
In an experimental tool I'm writing "skopeo2ostree" which imports OCI images
into refs, then squashes them together into a single final commit, we lost the
the `81` group ID for `/usr/libexec/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper`.
This happened because the commit code was loading the "physical" disk state,
where the uid/gid are zero because that's the uid I happened to be using. We
didn't just directly do the link speedup because I was using `--selinux-policy`
which caused the xattrs to change, which caused us to re-commit objects from the
physical state.
The unit test I added actually doesn't quite trigger this, but I left
it because "why not". Really testing this requires the installed test
which uses SELinux policy from `/`.
The behavior without this fix looks like:
```
-00755 0 0 12 { [(b'user.ostreemeta', [byte 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x51, 0x00, 0x00, 0x81, 0xed]), (b'security.selinux', b'system_u:object_r:lib_t:s0')] } /usr/lib/dbus-daemon-helper
```
which was obviously totally broken - we shouldn't be picking up the
`user.ostreemeta` xattr and actually committing it of course.
Closes: #1297
Approved by: jlebon
Our CI uses default Docker, which has SELinux labeling but is rather
evil in returning `EOPNOTSUPP` to any attempts to set `security.selinux`,
even if to the same value.
The previous fire 🔥 for this was: https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/759
The `bare` repo mode really only makes sense as uid 0, so our installed
test framework is a good match for this. However, the unit tests *do*
work in a privileged container even as non-root, and *also* should
work on SELinux-disabled systems. So let's teach the test framework
how to skip in those situations.
I tested this both in a priv container (my default builder) and an unpriv
container (like our CI).
At the same time, start executing the `test-basic.sh` from an installed test,
so we get better coverage than before.
This is just the start - all of the sysroot tests really need the
same treatment.

This fixes up the last of the embarassing bits I saw from
the stack trace in:
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/issues/1184
We had a hardlink fast path, but that doesn't apply across
devices, which occurs in two notable cases:
- Installer ISO with local repo
- Tools like pungi that copy the repo to a local snapshot
Obviously there are a lot of subtleties here around things like the
bare-user-only conversions as well as exactly what data we copy. I think to get
better test coverage we may want to add `pull-local --no-hardlink` or so.
