875915f6c9 prepare-root: Link to glib
Since we've split off the "prepare root as init" code
into a separate file, we can now use glib to parse
the config file again, which is a lot less hacky.

This is particularly motivated by composefs, where
we want to do more in the initramfs.  Future patches
may also link to parts of libostree.

d6799ecc24 Separate prepare-root static path
We should have done this a long time ago.  We don't have any test
coverage for the no-initramfs path, and I think it's not long
term supportable as we want to add more features like composefs.

Particularly now that there's good support for embedding an
initramfs in a kernel image, I see little value in a path for
having custom static linking for this prepare root flow.

That said, we will continue to make a best-effort "it compiles"
attempt to support it.

Fork the "pid 1" prepare root code into a new
`ostree-prepare-root-static.c` file, and drop the runtime conditionals.

We can drop the composefs logic from `-static.c` which ends up
keeping that file much smaller.

A further next step here will be to actually fold the
`prepare-root.c` logic into the main `ostree` binary which we
can then just include in the initramfs.

e3be4ee52a Update submodule: composefs
Instead of using pkg-config, etc we just include composefs.
In the end the library is just 5 c source files, and it is set up
to be easy to use as a submodule.

For now, composefs support is disabled by default.

11d7587e40 prepare-root: Support using composefs as root filesystem
This changes ostree-prepare-root to use the .ostree.cfs image as a
composefs filesystem, instead of the checkout.

By default, composefs is used if support is built in and the .ostree.cfs
file exists in the deploy dir, otherwise we fall back to the old
method. However, if the ot-composefs kernel option is specified this
can be tweaked as per:
 * off: Never use composefsz
 * maybe: Use if possible
 * on: Fail if not possible
 * signed: Fail if the cfs image is not fs-verity signed with
   a key in the keyring.
 * digest=....: Fail if the cfs image does not match the specified
   digest.

The final layout when composefs is active is:

 /        ro overlayfs mount for composefs
 /sysroot "real" root
 /etc     rw bind mount to $deploydir/etc
 /var     rw bind mount to $vardir

We also specify the $deploydir/.ostree-mnt directory as the (internal)
mountpoint for the erofs mount for composefs. This can be used to map
the root fs back to the deploy id/dir in use,

A further note: I didn't test the .usr-ovl-work overlayfs case, but a
comment mentions that you can't mount overlayfs on top of a readonly
mount. That seems incompatible with composefs. If this is needed we
have to merge that with the overlayfs that composefs itself sets up,
which is possible with the libcomposefs APIs.

5af403be0c Support mounting /sysroot (and /boot) read-only
We want to support extending the read-only state to cover `/sysroot`
and `/boot`, since conceptually all of the data there should only
be written via libostree.  Or at least for `/boot` should *mostly*
just be written by ostree.

This change needs to be opt-in though to avoid breaking anyone.

Add a `sysroot/readonly` key to the repository config which instructs
`ostree-remount.service` to ensure `/sysroot` is read-only.  This
requires a bit of a dance because `/sysroot` is actually the same
filesystem as `/`; so we make `/etc` a writable bind mount in this case.

We also need to handle `/var` in the "OSTree default" case of a bind
mount; the systemd generator now looks at the writability state of
`/sysroot` and uses that to determine whether it should have the
`var.mount` unit happen before or after `ostree-remount.service.`

Also add an API to instruct the libostree shared library
that the caller has created a new mount namespace.  This way
we can freely remount read-write.

This approach extends upon in a much better way previous work
we did to support remounting `/boot` read-write.

6bf4b3e1d8 Add SPDX-License-Identifier to source files
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

When running distcheck, the systemd system-generator and bash-completion
scripts are installed in absolute paths (/usr and /lib) as looked up

30705889cb Switch to using a systemd generator for /var
If one wants to set up a mount for `/var` in `/etc/fstab`, it
won't be mounted since `ostree-prepare-root` set up a bind mount for
`/var` to `/sysroot/ostree/$stateroot/var`, and systemd will take
the already extant mount over what's in `/etc/fstab`.

There are a few options to fix this, but what I settled on is parsing
`/etc/fstab` in a generator (exactly like `systemd-fstab-generator` does),
except here we look for an explicit mount for `/var`, and if one *isn't* found,
synthesize the default ostree mount to the stateroot. Another nice property is
that if an admin creates a `var.mount` unit in `/etc` for example, that will
also override our mount.

Note that today ostree doesn't hard depend on systemd, so this behavior only
kicks in if we're built with systemd *and* libmount support (for parsing
`/etc/fstab`).  I didn't really test that case though.

Initially I started writing this as a "pure libc" program, but at one point
decided to use `libostree.so` to find the booted deployment. That didn't work
out because `/boot` wasn't necessarily mounted and hence we couldn't find the
bootloader config. A leftover artifact from this is that the generator code
calls into libostree via the "cmd private" infrastructure. But it's an easy way
to share code, and doesn't hurt.

42dab85728 ostree-prepare-root: Allow building statically with musl
If the `--with-static-compiler=musl-gcc` configure flag is given.

ostree-prepare-root can be used as init in a system without a populated
/lib.  To support this use case we need to link statically as we will be
unable to locate libc.so at run time if it's not installed in /lib.

We support building ostree-prepare-root with a different compiler to the
rest of ostree so we can use musl rather than glibc.  This reduces the size
of the executable significantly: from ~700K -> ~30K.  We have to use
`_SCRIPTS` here to get autotools to install this as an executable but
without generating rules to make it itself which we have specified
manually.

See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-utils/2007-01/msg00007.html
for advice on using autotools in this manner.

fd1a044d6e Move ostree-* executables to /usr/lib/ostree
Why not to use libexecdir?

Because this directory does not exist on some distros or paths
between distros varies. There are several reasons why a well
known path is prefered, for example when generating a kernel
command line:

init=${ostree}/usr/lib/ostree-boot/ostree-prepare-root

In addition this saves us some typing in a console when wanting
to access the "ostree" cmd line.

26cef497a6 Remove built in "triggers"
Originally, the idea was that clients would replicate "OS/tree"s from
a build server, but we'd run things like "ldconfig" on the client.
This was to allow adding e.g. the nVidia binary driver.

However, the triggers were the only thing in the system at the moment
that really had expected knowledge of the *contents* of the OS, like
the location of binaries.

For now, it's architecturally cleaner if we move the burden of
triggers to the tree builder (e.g. gnome-ostree or RPM).  Eventually
we may want OSTree to assist with this type of thing (perhaps
something like RPM %ghost), but this is the right thing to do now.

bb6eedfb25 [INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE] Implement new deployment model
See https://wiki.gnome.org/OSTree/DeploymentModel2

This is a major rework of the on-disk filesystem layout, and the boot
process.  OSTree now explicitly supports upgrading kernels, and these
upgrades are also atomic.

The core concept of the new model is the "deployment list", which is
an ordered list of bootable operating system trees.  The deployment
list is reflected in the bootloader configuration; which has a kernel
argument that tells the initramfs (dracut) which operating system root
to use.

Invidiual notable changes that come along with this:

1) Operating systems should now come with their etc in usr/etc; OSTree
   will perform a 3-way merge at deployment time, and place etc in
   the actual root.  This avoids the need for a bind mount, and is
   just a lot cleaner.
2) OSTree no longer bind mounts /root, /home, and /tmp.  It is expected
   that the the OS/ has these as symbolic links into /var.

At the moment, OSTree only supports managing syslinux; other
bootloader backends will follow.

7e882cc2cf dracut: Add ostree-remount
Linux creates a copy of the soure mount flags when creating a bind
mount; if the source is read-only, then the bind mount is.

The problem is that systemd will remount the rootfs read/write, but
each mount (/home, /var etc.) will still be read-only.  We need to
remount every bind mount except for /usr to read-write too.

This only "worked" with the old ostree-switch-root because it
effectively force mounted the rootfs read-write always, ignoring the
"ro" flag.
