"switchroot: Ensure /run/ostree-booted is created even without initramfs"
This fixes ostree when booting without an initramfs. Thanks to @akiernan for the
bug report and helping review the fix! I'm working on enhancing
the test suite, which will help in adding some coverage here.
Also for this release I'm going to avoid adding a "stub" symbol section
to the `-released.sym` file; I don't believe it's necessary.

If ostree-prepare-root is run as pid 1 (i.e we're not using an initramfs), then
anything we write outside the target sysroot (such as `/run/ostree-booted`) will
be lost.
Since `ostree-remount.service` runs fairly early in boot, and is triggered via
`ConditionKernelCommandLine=ostree`, we can just touch the file there in
addition.

I was looking at this code in prep for "staging" deployments,
and there are several cleanups to be made here. The first
thing I noticed is that we look for the `ostree=` kernel argument,
but the presence of that should be exactly equivalent to having
`/run/ostree-booted` exist. We just added a member variable for
that, so let's make use of it.
Related to this, we were erroring out if we had the karg but
didn't find a deployment. But this can happen if e.g. one is
using `ostree admin --sysroot` from an ostree-booted system! It's
actually a bit surprising no one has reported this so far; I guess
in the end people are either using non-ostree systems or running
from containers.
Let's add a member variable `root_is_sysroot` that we can use
to determine if we're looking at `/`. Then, our more precise
"should find a booted deployment" state is when both `ostree_booted`
and `root_is_sysroot` are TRUE.
Next, rather than walking all of the deployments after parsing,
we can inline the `fstatat()` while parsing. The mild ugly
thing about this is assigning to the sysroot member variable while
parsing, but I will likely clean that up later, just wanted to avoid
rewriting everything in one go.

In ostree_repo_abort_transaction, if we pass a cancellable and it gets
canceled, then the function may fail to fully clean up the transaction
state. This was happening e.g. when the ostree_repo_pull_with_options
call got cancelled.
To fix this, as suggested by Colin Walters, we set the passed
cancellable as NULL, in order for it to be ignored.

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.

OstreeRepoFinderMount checks mounts for a few well-known directories
such as "ostree/repo" and ".ostree/repo" to try to find remotes. One of
the hard-coded directories is "var/lib/flatpak" but that's the flatpak
directory, not the ostree repo used by flatpak, which is at
"var/lib/flatpak/repo". So this commit changes the path so the repo can
be found.

repository, so this commit won't make a difference there. But it may

[jigdo](https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/issues/1081) where we're

For P2P pulls ostree adds temporary remotes and removes them in
find_remotes_cb(). However, if an OstreeRepoFinderResult gets freed
during the course of that function, the OstreeRemote in the result is
freed but a pointer to it remains in the remotes_to_remove array. This
means that when _ostree_repo_remove_remote() gets called on it at the
end of the function it will fail. In my case the resulting error was
"OSTree-CRITICAL **: _ostree_repo_remove_remote: assertion 'remote->name
!= NULL' failed" but I think it could also seg fault.
This commit adds a reference to the remote so it can be properly removed
when we're finished with it.

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).

Currently users of the find_remotes_async()/pull_from_remotes_async()
functions have no way to specify a commit hash to use instead of the
latest one available. This commit implements an "override-commit-ids"
option analogous to the one used by ostree_repo_pull_with_options().
It's accomplished by returning OstreeRepoFinderResult objects pointing
to the given commit checksum(s) regardless of which ones were available
from the remotes, but in the future this implementation could be
improved to take into account the commits advertised by the remotes.
One effect of this is that flatpak will have the ability to downgrade

Much like the (optional) initramfs at
`/usr/lib/ostree-boot/initramfs-<SHA256>` or
`/usr/lib/modules/$kver/initramfs` you can now optionally include a
flattened devicetree (.dtb) file alongside the kernel at
`/usr/lib/ostree-boot/devicetree-<SHA256>` or
`/usr/lib/modules/$kver/devicetree`.
This is useful for embedded ARM systems which need the devicetree file
loaded by the bootloader for the kernel to discover and initialise
hardware. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_tree for more
information.
This patch was mostly produced by copy-pasting code for initramfs handling
and renaming `s/initramfs/devicetree/g`. It's not beautiful, but it is
fairly straightforward.
It may be useful to extend device-tree support in a number ways in the
future. Device trees dependant on many details of the hardware they
support. This makes them unlike kernels, which may support many different
hardware variants as long as the instruction-set matches. This means that
a ostree tree created with a device-tree in this manner will only boot on
a single model of hardware. This is sufficient for my purposes, but may
not be for others'.
I've tested this on my NVidia Tegra TK1 device which has u-boot running
in syslinux-compatible mode.
Closes: #1411
Approved by: cgwalters
The bootloader spec says:
> `devicetree` refers to the binary device tree to use when executing the
> kernel. This also shall be a path relative to the `$BOOT` directory. This
> key is optional. Example:
> `6a9857a393724b7a981ebb5b8495b9ea/3.8.0-2.fc19.armv7hl/tegra20-paz00.dtb`
This is necessary for booting my NVidia Tegra TK1 device. It uses u-boot
with syslinux compatibility. In the syslinux files that come with the
device this is called `FDT`, but u-boot treats `FDT and `DEVICETREE` as
synonyms.

Previously we were doing e.g. `ot_util_filename_validate()` specifically inline
in dirtree objects, but only *after* writing them into the staging directory (by
default). In (non-default) cases such as not using a transaction, such an object
could be written directly into the repo.
A notable gap here is that `pull-local --untrusted` was *not* doing
this verification, just checksums. We harden that (and also the
static delta writing path, really *everything* that calls
`ostree_repo_write_metadata()` to also do "structure" validation
which includes path traversal checks. Basically, let's try hard
to avoid having badly structured objects even in the repo.
One thing that sucks in this patch is that we need to allocate a "bounce buffer"
for metadata in the static delta path, because GVariant imposes alignment
requirements, which I screwed up and didn't fulfill when designing deltas. It
actually didn't matter before because we weren't parsing them, but now we are.
In theory we could check alignment but ...eh, not worth it, at least not until
we change the delta compiler to emit aligned metadata which actually may be
quite tricky. (Big picture I doubt this really matters much right now
but I'm not going to pull out a profiler yet for this)
The pull test was extended to check we didn't even write a dirtree
with path traversal into the staging directory.
There's a bit of code motion in extracting
`_ostree_validate_structureof_metadata()` from `fsck_metadata_object()`.
Then `_ostree_verify_metadata_object()` builds on that to do checksum
verification too.

Previously when initramfs-* was not found in a deployment's
boot directory, it was assumed that rootfs is prepared for
ostree booting by a kernel patch.
With this patch, the behaviour changes to be - if initramfs-*
is not found, assume that system is using a static
ostree-prepare-root as init process. Booting without initramfs
is a common use case on embedded systems. This approach is
also more convenient, than having to patch the kernel.

If the current deployment has "rootwait root=/dev/sda2",
but the new deployment does not need "rootwait" anymore,
there is no way to clear this arg at the moment (as opposed
to "karg=root=", which overrides any earlier argument with

the previous args and set new "root=":

Closes: #1401
Approved by: cgwalters
With the current approach, when ostree-prepare-root is used
on the kernel command line as init=, it always assumes that
the next value in the argument list is a path to the sysroot.
The code for falling back to a default path (if none is provided),
would only work if init= is the last arg in the argument list.
We can not rely on that and have to explicitly provide the
path to the sysroot. Which defeats the purpose of a default
path selection code.
To keep command line neater assume that sysroot is on / when
using ostree-prepare-root as init. This probably is what most
people want anyways. Also _ostree_kernel_args* API assumes
that args are space separated list. Which is problematic for:
"init=${ostree}/usr/lib/ostree/ostree-prepare-root /" as it
gets split in two.

Clients of libostree such as rpm-ostree make extensive use of the
`ostree commit -b foo --tree=ref=foo` pattern in their tests, e.g. to
simulate an update.
What I'm trying to solve here is that it's often the case that we want
to keep metadata from the previous commit without having to be too
verbose (i.e. reading from the parent, then passing it as an argument).
The new `--keep-metadata` switch makes this really easy. I intend to use
this in the rpm-ostree testsuite to make sure we always carry over the
`source-title` metadata as well as during set up for tests that require
`rpmostree.rpmdb.pkglist` metadata.

This is useful when generating a new repository from scratch, but not
useful when adding new commits to an existing repository (since the old

pointed at them). That’s why it has to be enabled explicitly using

It will be used by the fsck utility in future. We could expose it
publicly in future too, if needed.

Mostly adding this for use in test cases; it allows us to add e.g.
integers, and we need to deal with byteswapping those.
Someone mind also find it useful to add fully structured metadata, although most
of those users should be using a real language and not shell script.

In the non-`CONSUME` path for regfiles (which happens currently for
`bare-user`), we go to a lot of contortions to make an "object stream",
only to immediately parse it again.
Fixing this will also enable the `G_IS_FILE_DESCRIPTOR_BASED()` fast path in
commit, since the input stream will actually reference the file descriptor and
not be an `_OstreeChainInputStream`.
There's a slight concern here in that we're no longer checksumming *literally*
the object stream passed in for the stream case, but I mention in the comment,
the data should be the same, and if it's not somehow we're not adding risk,
since the checksum is still covering the data we actually care about.
Prep for further changes to break up the `write_content_object()` path into
separate paths for archive, as well as regfile vs symlink in non-archive.
