Now we stop running rpm-ostreed as non-root, which is going to be
a maintenance pain going forward. If we do introduce non-VM based
tests I think we should look to doing in-container testing.
Closes: #1339
Approved by: cgwalters
The unit tests run an rpm-ostree daemon as non-root, which worked
surprisingly well for quite a while. But it started failing when
working on a patch which adds caching that writes to `/var`.
Since we have the vmcheck system now, let's switch over to that.
This PR moves the random "basic" tests we'd accumulated like
one to verify `StateRoot` is only in `status --verbose`, but not
the tests for the `rebase` command etc.

When juggling multiple test VMs for different purposes, it's useful to
be able to easily e.g. `make vmcheck` a specific one by overriding the
ssh-config file to use, rather than editing the latter each time.

Because otherwise, there's no way to see the output of the script.
Also, turn off `gather_facts` since in the majority of cases, we don't
need it, so let's avoid the overhead. We can make this an opt-in flag
later on if needed.

This adds a shell primitive to make it easy to execute a playbook
task list.
The big picture idea is to sync with https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1462
and rewrite some of the libvm shell stuff as playbooks, allowing easier
code sharing with a-h-t and just in general being a better library for
talking ssh and executing commnads.

We would error out when trying to start the transient httpd service if
it already exists, e.g. from a previous test.
Depending on how we exit, the `vm_stop_httpd` trap for the previous test
might not have been able to kick in. I think this happens when we exit
using `fatal`, which just does an `exit 1`. It's not strictly an error,
so doesn't trip the `ERR` handler.
Let's just go the extra mile and explicitly delete transient services if
they already exist.

Pick up security advisories when checking for pending updates and
include them in the `cached-update` property. On the client-side,
display them in the output of `status`.
This was part of the original vision for how useful a smart `check` mode
could be. It directly impacts how one manages their individual system
(e.g. when to reboot), and paves the way for integration into
higher-level apps that act at the cluster level.
Closes: #1249
Approved by: cgwalters
This patch introduces a new `AutomaticUpdatePolicy` configuration. This
was a long time coming for rpm-ostree, given that its update model makes
it extremely apt for such a feature.
The config supports a `check` mode, which should be very useful to
Atomic Workstation users, as well as a `reboot` mode, which could be
used in its present form in simple single node Atomic Host situations.
There is still a lot of work to be done, including integrating
advisories, and supporting a `deploy` mode. This feature hopefully will
be leveraged as well by higher-level projects like GNOME Software and
Cockpit.

This reverts commit 1ef259ed76.
Basically, for historical POSIX compatibility, `errexit` doesn't work at
all inside functions called from an if-statement/boolean context. This
is something I had already learned (and forgotten) when hacking on PAPR.
There are ways around this, but it's just not worth the added complex
shell goop for what it gives us.

The output from `rpmbuild` makes test results harder to comb through
when debugging. Let's just dump all that to file and only output it if
something goes wrong.
Closes: #1212

This is the first step towards unifying how we introspect packages from
a specific commit. We currently do this in three ways: libdnf, librpm,
and now `rpmostree.rpmdb.pkglist`. I'd like to get to a point where we
only have `rpmostree.rpmdb.pkglist` and libdnf, the latter only when
more complex queries are required.
This patch teaches the `db diff` command to make use of the new db diff
API so that it can work even on metadata-only commits. This is relevant
for use cases mentioned in #558.
I didn't get rid of the `rpmhdrs_diff` functions right now because of
the `--changelogs` option: libdnf currently does not expose this, so we
fall back to the previous API in that case. OTOH, I wonder how much it's
actually used in the wild; maybe we could just nix it?
Closes: #1162

We originally needed the pkgcache to be a separate repo due to ostree's
overzealous pruning policies. The idea was to maintain multiple commits
in each pkg branch for different SELinux policies. In practice, there's
not much use in maintaining old copies and it's just easier to always
relabel on the fly. So then, the need for a separate repo completely
melts away.
This helps simplify the mental model a bit and allows us to avoid subtle
issues like #1047. Note however that the core is still capable of
handling split repos for the `--ex-unified-core` compose use case. Once
that and the jigdo work are a bit more settled, we can have a clearer
picture of how to simplify the core further.
The tricky bit is migrating the cache. When deploying, we check if a
pkgcache repo exists and migrate its refs if so. We then leave behind a
symlink to the system repo to remain compatible with older rpm-ostrees.
Closes: #1055
Approved by: cgwalters
I've been lazy about actually using using rsync instead of scp when
copying new RPMs over to the VM. We do this here. Also make
`vm_send_test_repo` take a mode argument that allows callers to
completely skip the sending of the repo file itself. This will be needed
for the `makecache` test, in which we *don't* want the repo to be local.
It looks cleaner anyway for the gpgcheck use case as well.
Closes: #1035

Prep for implementing `rpm-ostree cancel`, but this works with the way we handle
`Ctrl-C` interactively on a client as well. Being able to cancel a script
execution is quite nice; some of them are expensive, and having one loop forever
has been known to happen.
Closes: #1025

There's a lot of paths in the core related to SELinux policy changes and
relabeling packages. We currently have no test coverage for them. We add
support in the test libraries here to build such packages.
We also add a test that checks both that we correctly relabel RPMs when
the policy changes and that we handle layered packages that install
SELinux packages properly.

Rather than just letting the scriptlets inherit the daemon's
stdout/stderr, redirect their outputs so that we can set a customized
identifier to make it easier to distinguish from the daemon output.
Also print out the `journalctl` command needed so that users can
investigate the output themselves.

It turns out there's a much smaller limit than PATH_MAX for Unix
sockets. On Linux, it's 108 characters. It took me some time to figure
out why `vmcheck` would sometimes fail depending on where the src
directory is and how ${topsrcdir} is defined. Let's just make things
safer by just using /var/tmp.

Now that we require clients to have an active session to RegisterClient,
we can't use runuser to check for non-root functionality. Add a new
vm_cmd_as() function to allow connecting as a different user. While
we're there, do some minor cleanups to consistently use `local` when
possible.

Add experimental support for replacing packages from the base layer with
local RPMs. This is useful for example, to cherry pick a fixed package,
or to roll back to a previous package version. Like with pkg removals,
only files in /usr are actually replaced.
This patch also contains a few usability improvements as well, e.g.
showing the full NEVRA of removed packages rather than just their names,
and support for resetting overrides using either the pkgname or NEVRA.
Closes: #852

Having to prepare RPMs in advance separately from the tests that use
them severely limits our ability to test various cases and to iterate
quickly when creating tests.
Add a new `build_rpm` function which can basically build the RPM on the
fly and update the yum repo afterwards. It makes it trivial to test
things like package updates:
build_rpm foo 1.0 1
<stuff>
build_rpm foo 1.0 2
<stuff>
The RPMs are all created inside the temporary test directory and thus
cleaned up on exit.
I'm doing this in a separate commit because it's the most important diff
of the transition and might be easy to lose in the larger diff where we
move all the tests to make use of this.
Closes: #854

There are a few different use cases here. First, for layering new packages,
there's no good reason for us to force a reboot. Second, we want some support
for cherry-picking security updates and allowing admins to restart services. Finally,
at some point we should offer support for entirely replacing the running tree
if that's what the user wants.
Until now we've been very conservative, but there's a spectrum here. In
particular, this patch changes things so we push a rollback before we start
doing anything live. I think in practice, many use cases would be totally fine
with doing most changes live, and falling back to the rollback if something went
wrong.
This initial code drop *only* supports live layering of new packages. However,
a lot of the base infrastructure is laid for future work.
For now, this will be classified as an experimental feature, hence `ex livefs`.

1. Don't require an ssh-config
In the case of redhat-ci, the VMs are already fully configured for the
system (injected in the hosts file, host key accepted, etc...). So
there's no need to have an ssh-config there. In general, it should be
acceptable to run the vmcheck suite against a resolvable host without
having to create an ssh-config for it.
2. Make the host name configurable
Rather than hardcoding "vmcheck" as the hostname, allow overridding it
by specifying a VM env var directly. We also prepare the various scripts
to make use of the $VM variable whenever host-specific dirs/files are
created so that parallel runs won't step on each other.

While reading a recent conversation about GPG checking at treecompose
time, I had a sudden thought - were we actually doing verification
client side? Turned out, we aren't. That happens as part of
`dnf_transaction_commit()` which we don't use.
That function verifies every package at one go, but for us I think it's better
to do it before "importing". We shouldn't have untrusted bits that we've
unpacked (they might have suid binaries, for one thing).
This is an embarassing problem, but it's worth emphasizing that everyone should
be retrieving repodata at a minimum over TLS, which sets a baseline. On RHEL, we
already do pinned TLS, and there are discussions about extending that elsewhere.

On the first call to vmsync/vmoverlay, we do an immediate vm_ssh_wait()
to check if we have a live VM. However, we don't necessarily have a
working rpm-ostree in there if we're hacking on stuff. It gets annoying
to wait for the timeout there.
Let's just work around that by instead only calling status if we got
there through vm_reboot_cmd(), which is most likely when we're most
interested in the status output anyway.

Currently we push for a model where the initramfs is
generated (in non-hostonly mode), and merely replicated.
However, to support a few unfortunate corner cases like dm-multipath which wants
to inject a config file into the initramfs, we need to support regenerating it
client side too.
Down the line, we'll need this to support overriding the kernel too.
This changes things in the core to add the concept of an "empty"
`RpmOstreeContext`. I initially tried skipping it, but that was too much
duplication. We still want all of the core ostree-related logic that lives in
that code too.
The treespec bits barfed if the spec didn't have a `tree/packages` key. It was
simplest to change that to allow it - and because that was the only case where
we errored out in parsing, I dropped the error handling.
There was another place in the upgrader that now needed to be fixed to handle
transitioning from just regenerating initramfs to not.

Many projects do this, and it really helps debugging to know the
exact hash.
(Of course this is broken in traditional rpm builds from a tarball,
and rpmdistro-gitoverlay injects it into the Version field,
but it will help me for vmcheck debugging)
Closes: #584

Working on initramfs, I hit a subtle issue with the fact that
I was trying to "redeploy", but with the origin file changed
during the process.
Previously, it was a bit unclear which parts of the upgrader logic are operating
on the *new* origin versus the "original origin".
The package layering code in the upgrader explicitly carries a delta on top in
the "add/remove" hash sets, which means it isn't visible to
`rpmostree_origin_is_locally_assembled()`.
Whereas for initramfs, I set a new origin. This broke things since we were
expecting to find a parent commit, but the original origin wasn't locally
assembled.
When looking more at this, I realized there's a far simpler model -
rather than keeping track of commit + origin, and using the origin
to try to determine whether or not the commit is layered, we can
keep track of `base_revision` and `final_revision`, and the latter
is only set if we're doing layering.
The diff speaks for itself here - a lot of fragile logic looking at the origin
drops away.
The next step here is probably to drop away the package layering hash sets, but
I'm trying to not change everything at once.

First try to log in, and if we fail, retry with SSH debugging,

Unsurprisingly, rebooting machines that are running in OpenStack is
not as reliable or as fast as a local VM, which is what vmcheck was
originally written for and tested against.
Replace the:
sleep 2 # give time for port to go down
which is rife with raciness, with a stronger boot_id-based check to
ensure we're in a new boot. Run "sync" before rebooting which sometimes
helps (though I didn't fully investigate why or whether it always helps,
there's probably something more subtle going on underneath). Increase
the timeout to 120s.

This is just the final bit required to make sure the vagrant and

My development environment is now using "pet" docker containers.
I use VMs for testing things that require that (like rpm-ostree).
This patch builds on work from @jlebon in
https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/pull/509
to rework `vmcheck` such that it can work on any `ssh-config`. By
default we expect this to be Vagrant.
However, I go a lot farther and delete the `vmbuild` code that was
trying to do builds in a container on the target VM. I think this is
still worth pursuing at some point, but for now I think it's
reasonable to assume that the rpm-ostree developer audience uses Linux
as their host workstation and hence has containers.
(There's another important point here in that for developing lower
level things like rpm-ostree, there's a strong push to make the VM
disposable and not a pet)

We further split libvm from vagrant. It no longer does 'vagrant
ssh-config'. Instead, it always assumes that an ssh-config is provided.
We now have complete separation of libvm from vagrant.
We change the ansible provisioner as follows:
- Allow passing in a VAGRANT_BOX env var to override the default
CentOS box.
- No longer assume that the root user account is unlocked and has a
valid 'vagrant' password. This worked for the centos box but isn't
sure to work on every box. Instead, we now just run ansible as the
default vagrant user, and during provisioning set up the root
account and generate an ssh-config so that libvm can connect
directly as root.
- No longer build the buildimg during provisioning. This actually
stopped working a while ago since the default rsync is disabled. We
can just let the buildimg get created on the first compilation. In
practice, the bigger issue isn't creating the buildimg, but being
able to easily update the host and buildimg pkgs.
