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.

Otherwise $(installed_testdir) is empty so we try to put content in
`/`, which I noticed when trying to build an RPM (it works works fine
`sudo make install`).
%Z only uses seconds, so it's possible that we did the commit
in the same second, which made this test racy.
- Switch to full nanosecond precision using '%.Y' so it always differs
- Fix the inverted `cmp` usage
- Add a missing `ok`
This will allow daemons like rpm-ostree to detect if there are any new
deployments efficiently, in combination with using inotify. If there
are any changes, rpm-ostree wants publish them on DBus.
While we're here, add some changes to start doing unit C testing of
the sysroot API.
I want to be able to easily test the C API on actual data in an OSTree
repo. The shell `libtest.sh` has code to generate it. Bridge the two
worlds by introducing a little `libostreetest` library which has a C
API which spawns a shell that runs things in `libtest.sh`.
Yes, this is about as beautiful as it sounds, which is to say, it's
not. But it works!
Note while we were here, I realized we were actually now creating
*two* tmpdirs per test in `make check` because the tap driver was
already doing that. Unify it so we know the C code can rely on it.
And change the command line to use it. rpm-ostree had a copy
of this code, and thus there's a clear reason to have an API.
While we're moving this into API, ensure the mtime on deploy is bumped
after an osname is created, so that daemons like rpm-ostree can notice
changes. (In reality, creating the directory should do this, but
let's be double sure)
This allows other processes (e.g. rpm-ostreed) to monitor for external
changes (e.g. if someone does `ostree admin undeploy`) in a relatively
sane fashion.
Specifically, I'm trying to fix:
https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/issues/220
OSTree's code for testing predates the `glib-tap.mk` making its
way into GLib. Let's switch to it, as it provides a number
of advantages.
By far the biggest advantage is that `make check` can start to run
most of the tests *in addition* to having them work installed.
This commit keeps the installed tests working, but `make check` turns
out to be really broken because...our TAP usage has bitrotted to say
the least. Fix that all up.
Do some hacks so that the tests work uninstalled as well - in
particular, `glib-tap.mk` and the bits encoded into
`g_test_build_filename()` assume *recursive* Automake (blah). Work
around that by creating a symlink when installed to loop back.
It accepts a `flags` argument to control its behavior. Differently
from `ostree_repo_list_refs`, the `refspec_prefix` is not removed from
the results.

I plan to use this in rpm-ostree at least for two reasons:
- To find the mtime on the repo
- To use the tmp/ directory to stage content (but we should eventually
add a better API)
As rpm-ostree evolves, it keeps driving API additions to libostree.
This creates a relatively tight coupling.
However, if delivering via e.g. RPM, unless one manually remembers to
increment the `Requires:` in the spec file, it's possible for the two
to become desynchronized.
RPM handles versioned symbols and will ensure a dependency if the
application starts using a newer version.
To implement this, switch to `-fvisibility=hidden`, along with an
annotation in the header, and finally add a `.sym` file.
This matches what other projects like systemd and libvirt do.
Although rather than attempting to retroactively version symbols, glom
them all onto the current one.
I see when analyzing a delta here that due to byteswapping a negative
compression ratio of 540%, 66%, and 28%. Let's arbitrarily pick 20%
as a threshold for detecting byetswapping.
If the average object size is greater than 4GiB, let's assume we're
dealing with opposite endianness. I'm fairly confident no one is
going to be shipping peta- or exa- byte size ostree deltas, period.
Past the gigabyte scale you really want bittorrent or something.
xdg-app passed this a filename directly, and in this case it should be
used as is. This regressed to always look for "superblock" in the same
directory as the passed in filename.

Some Docker layers are just metadata in the `layer.json`. If one is
mapping Docker layers to OSTree commits, one needs to create a dummy
root directory, because OSTree doesn't support metadata-only commits.
Let's just push that logic down here because it's easier than special
casing it in higher levels.
One of the design goals with deltas was not just wire efficiency,
but also having all the data up front about how much data would
be transferred before starting.
Let's expose that better by adding a `dry-run` option to the pull API.
This requires static deltas to be useful. Basically we simply call
the progress callback once with the data from the superblock.
For a production release repository, most OS vendors would want
to just always use static deltas. Add the ability for the pulls to
require it.
(I think I'll also add a summary key for this actually in addition,
so the repo manager can force it too)
If ostree is run in a test setup where it operates as root in a tmp
directory, it might cause issues to flag the deployments as immutable.
The test harness might simply be doing an `rm -rf` (effectively the case
for gnome-desktop-testing-runner), which will then fail.
We add a new debug option to the ostree_sysroot object using GLib's
GDebugKey functionality to allow our tests to communicate to ostree that
we don't want immutable deployments.
This is a more flexible version of the previous
ostree_repo_write_archive_to_mtree() which took a file reference.
This has an extensible options structure, and in particular
now supports `ignore_unsupported_content`.
I plan to use this for importing Docker images which contain device
nodes. (There's no reason for container images to have those, so
we'll just ignore them).
Also here, just like the export variant, the caller is responsible for
setting up libarchive.
I was going to add new API for importing, and it was really confusing
that what I think of now as import and export both had "write" in the
name. It's just clearer to talk about the direction.
At the same time, include `Export` in the options structure.
This isn't an ABI break as the API isn't in a release.
I was getting a compilation error with the GCC hardening flags which
look for a missing mode with `O_CREAT`. The right fix here is to drop
`O_CREAT`, as truncate() should throw `ENOENT` if the file doesn't
exist.
For rofiles-fuse. Eventually what we should really do is split out
the shared library from the binaries? A minimal system shouldn't need
rofiles-fuse, it's mainly for doing layered packages and that sort of
thing.
