Quoting Dan Nicholson in
<https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/330#issuecomment-245499099>
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.

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.

In general this is even cleaner now, though it was better after I
extracted a helper function for the "write tempfile with contents"
bits that were shared between metadata and regular file codepaths.
Closes: #369
Approved by: jlebon
When reworking the ostree core [to use O_TMPFILE](https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/369),
I hit an issue in the way the untrusted delta codepath ends up trying
to re-open the file to checksum it. That's not possible with
`O_TMPFILE` since the fd (which we opened `O_WRONLY`) is the only
accessible reference to the content.
Fix this by changing the delta processing code to update a checksum as
we're doing writes, which is also faster, and ends up simplifying the
code as well.
What would be an even larger simplification here is if we e.g. used a
separate thread calling `write_object()` or something like that; the
main issue I see there is somehow bridging the fact that function
wants a `GInputStream*` but the delta code is generating stream of
writes.

This centralizes the ifdef's in one file, which will make it
easier to write new pull backends.

1 is a better choice than 0 because some programs use 0
as a special value; for example, GNU Tar warns of an
"implausibly old timestamp" with 0.

- Make hardlink handling more generic. The previous strategy worked for
tar archives, but not for cpio. It now works for both.
- Add support for SEL labeling (through the OstreeRepoCommitModifier)
- Add support for xattr_callback (through the OstreeRepoCommitModifier)
- Add support for filter (through the OstreeRepoCommitModifier)
- Add a use_ostree_convention option

We were arbitrarily only deleting content after exactly one day. Some
use cases may want something else; make it configurable.
Closes: #170
Approved by: jlebon
We had a policy of cleaning up all files in `$repo/tmp` older
than one day, but we should really clean up previous bootid staging
directories too, as they can potentially take up a lot of disk space.

Setting this causes commit to error out. There are other ways we
could do this in a more sophisticated fashion, such as via SystemTap
etc. But this has low-tech applicablity, works as non-root.
The reason I'm adding this is so that we can add test cases for
cleanup of the `tmp/staging-` directory.
Closes: #170

There was some leftover intermediate cruft here I noticed
while reviewing another patch:
- We had an output `GFile*` for that was never used
- We required the caller to allocate the loose pathbuf, but
none of them ever reused it
- We had an extra intermediate function
Also while looking at this, I'm now uncertain whether some of the
callers of `_ostree_repo_has_loose_object` should really be invoking
`ostree_repo_has_object()`, but let's leave that aside for now.

This allows you to replace the default
$sysroot/$sysconfdir/ostree/repos.d string value, and to use a similar
feature for repos that are not the system repo.
In particular, this allows us to support /etc/xdg-app/remotes.d for
xdg-app.
Closes: #247
Approved by: cgwalters
These are useful for ostree users (like xdg-app) that have custom
options for remotes. In particular they are useful when we later make them
all respect self->parent_repo.

It allows an optimization to skip the download of the summary file
if its .sig file is unchanged.
Downloading the .sig file is much cheaper than downloading the summary
file from repositories with many branches.

I'd like to incrementally convert all of `ostree-repo*.c` to
fd-relative usage, so that we can sanely introduce
`ostree_repo_new_at()` which doesn't involve GFile.
This one is medium risk, but passes the test suite.
A fast way to generate new OSTree content using an existing
tree is to checkout (as hard links), add/replace files, then
call `ostree_repo_scan_hardlinks()`, then commit.
But `ostree_repo_scan_hardlinks()` scans the entire repo, which
can be slow if you have a lot of content.
All we really need is a mapping of (device,inode) -> checksum
just for the objects we checked out, then use that mapping
for commits.
This patch adds API so that callers can create a mapping via
`ostree_repo_devino_cache_new()`, then pass it to
`ostree_repo_checkout_tree_at()` which will populate it, and then
`ostree_repo_write_directory_to_mtree()` can consume it.
I plan to use this in rpm-ostree for package layering work.
Notes:
- The old `ostree_repo_scan_hardlinks()` API still works.
- I tweaked the cache to be a set with the checksum colocated with
the key, to avoid a separate malloc block per entry.

Concurrent pulls break since we're sharing the staging directory for
all transactions in the repo. This makes us use a per-transaction directory.
However, in order for resumes to work we first look for existing
staging directories and try to aquire an exclusive lock for them. If
we can't find any staging directory or they are all already locked,
then we create a new one.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=757611
This creates a subdirectory of the tmp dir with a selected prefix,
and takes a lockfile to ensure that nobody else is using the same directory.
However, if a directory with the same prefix already exists and is
not locked that is used instead.
The later is useful if you want to support some kind of resumed operation
on the tmpdir.

Also renames OstreeRepoTrustedContentBareCommit to
OstreeRepoContentBareCommit so that it can be used by both.
This will be needed when we introduce checksum verification of objects
in static deltas.
Had a rare situation where I had no libsoup development files, so I
took the opportunity to fix the build errors. Ugly, but works now.
Would be nice if libsoup could be a hard dependency since we rarely
ever test a configuration without it.
External daemons like rpm-ostree want push notification any time a
change is made by an external entity. inotify provides notification,
but a problem is there's no easy way to monitor all of the refs.
In the past, there has been discussion of opt-in recursive timestamps:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/5/307
But in today's world, let's just bump the mtime on the repo itself, as
a central inotify point.
Closes: https://github.com/GNOME/ostree/pull/111
Similar to c2b01ad. For some reason I was thinking the commit data
still needed to be written to disk prior to verifying, but it's just
another artifact of spawning gpgv2 (predates using GPGME).
Makes for a nice cleanup in fetch_metadata_to_verify_delta_superblock()
as well.
I was hitting a bug in libguestfs/guestmount/FUSE where it blew up
with EINVAL on directories containing lots of files (more than
32000?). We really want to use prefixed subdirs just like the real
objects/ directory does.
This allows us to share more code between the paths, is more
efficient, etc.
This follows up from the previous commit; now that pull knows how to
do the efficient link() or copy for local files, we can just have
pull-local call into ostree_repo_pull().
As part of this:
- pull() can also accept a file:/// URI instead
of a remote name (since pull local supports anonymous pulls)
- pull() knows an "override-remote-name" option, since pull-local
supported writing a ref out even if there wasn't a remote with
that name
When doing a pull --mirror from an archive-z2 repository into another
archive-z2 repository, currently we gunzip/checksum/gzip each content
object. The re-gzip process in particular is fairly expensive.
This does assume that the upstream content is trusted and correct.
It'd be nice in the future to do at least a CRC check, if not the full
checksum. (Could we append CRC data to the end of filez objects?)
We could also choose to only do this optimization if fetching over
TLS.
before: 1626 metadata, 20320 content objects fetched; 299634 KiB transferred in 62 seconds
after : 1626 metadata, 20320 content objects fetched; 299634 KiB transferred in 11 seconds
For future delta work where we do more interesting things than just
"tar of new objects", this lays the groundwork for doing streaming
writes into content objects.
It's also more efficient, as we avoid many intermediate allocations
and virtual calls. Just a single `g_output_stream_write_all` for the
splice case.

We could just make everything relative to this, but the objects/ and
tmp/ are accessed very often, so I think it's worth holding individual
fds.
This fd can cover everything else: refs, deltas, etc.
Do not write directly to objects/ but maintain pulled files under tmp/
with a "tmpobject-$CHECKSUM.$OBJTYPE" name until they are syncfs'ed to
disk.
Move them under objects/ at ostree_repo_commit_transaction cleanup
time.

ostree_repo_pull_with_options() needs this, and I'd rather keep the
OstreeRemote struct definition tucked away in ostree-repo.c with its
own internal API.
