The [dev-overlay](332c6ab3b9/src/cmd-dev-overlay)
script shipped in coreos-assembler mostly exists to deal
with the nontrivial logic around SELinux policy. Let's make
the use case of "commit some binaries overlaying a base tree, using
the base's selinux policy" just require a magical
`--selinux-policy-from-base` argument to `ostree commit`.
A new C API was added to implement this in the case of `--tree=ref`;
when the base directory is already checked out, we can just reuse
the existing logic that `--selinux-policy` was using.
Requires: https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/2039
This function parses the object listing in the `ostree.sizes` metadata
and returns an array of `OstreeCommitSizesEntry` structures.
Unfortunately, for reasons I don't understand, the linker wants to
resolve `_ostree_read_varuint64` from `ostree-core.c` even though it's
not used by `test-checksum.c` at all.
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.
Closes: https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/issues/1265
This allows copying the state from one OstreeAsyncProgress object to
another, atomically, without invoking the callback. This is needed in
libflatpak, in order to chain OstreeAsyncProgress objects so that you
can still receive progress updates when iterating a different
GMainContext than the one that the OstreeAsyncProgress object was
created under.
See https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/pull/3211 for the application of
this API.
After the corruption has been fixed with "ostree fsck -a --delete", a
second run of the "ostree fsck" command will print X partial commits
not verified and exit with a zero.
The zero exit code makes it hard to detect if a repair operation needs
to be run. When ever fsck creates a partial commit it should add a
reason for the partial commit to the state file found in
state/<hash>.commitpartial. This will allow a future execution of the
fsck to still return an error indicating that the repository is still
in the damaged state, awaiting repair.
Additional reason codes could be added in the future for why a partial
commit exists.
Text from: https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1880
====
cgwalters commented:
To restate, the core issue is that it's valid to have partial commits
for reasons other than fsck pruned bad objects, and libostree doesn't
have a way to distinguish.
Another option perhaps is to write e.g. fsck-partial into the
statefile state/<hash>.commitpartial which would mean "partial, and
expected to exist but was pruned by fsck" and fsck would continue to
error out until the commit was re-pulled. Right now the partial stamp
file is empty, so it'd be fully compatible to write a rationale into
it.

Currently libostree essentially has two modes when it's pulling refs:
the "legacy" code paths pull only from the Internet, and the code paths
that are aware of collection IDs try to pull from the Internet, the
local network, and mounted filesystems (such as USB drives). The problem
is that while we eventually want to migrate everyone to using collection
IDs, we don't want to force checking LAN and USB sources if the user
just wants to pull from the Internet, since the LAN/USB code paths can
have privacy[1], security[2], and performance[3] implications.
So this commit implements a new repo config option called "repo-finders"
which can be configured to, for example, "config;lan;mount;" to check
all three sources or "config;mount;" to disable searching the LAN. The
set of values mirror those used for the --finders option of the
find-remotes command. This configuration affects pulls in three places:
1. the ostree_repo_find_remotes_async() API, regardless of whether or
not the user of the API provided a list of OstreeRepoFinders
2. the ostree_repo_finder_resolve_async() /
ostree_repo_finder_resolve_all_async() API
3. the find-remotes command
This feature is especially important right now since we soon want to
have Flathub publish a metadata key which will have Flatpak clients
update the remote config to add a collection ID.[4]
This effectively fixes https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/1863
but I'll patch Flatpak too, so it doesn't pass finders to libostree only
to then have them be removed.

complete, having the LAN finder enabled slows down that step of the
pull process by about 40%. See also

This commit defines a metadata key that tells clients to update their
remote config to add a collection ID. This functionality is currently
implemented in Flatpak for the key "xa.collection-id", but there are two
good reasons for moving the key to OSTree:
1) Servers such as Flathub shouldn't set xa.collection-id in their
metadata now or in the medium term future, because many users are still
using old versions of Flatpak and OSTree[1] which would hit various
bugs[2][3][4] on the P2P code paths that are enabled by collection IDs.
Defining a new key means that only clients running recent
(as-yet-unreleased) versions of Flatpak and OSTree will pay attention to
it and deploy the collection ID, leaving the users on old versions
unaffected.
2) OSTree is as "invested" in collection IDs as Flatpak, so there's no
reason the key should be defined in Flatpak rather than here. According
to Philip Withnall, the reason the key was put in Flatpak originally was
that at the time there was uncertainty about tying OSTree to collection
IDs.

There is no API method to remove a file or subdirectory from a MutableTree
besides directly manipulating the GHashTable returned by _get_files or
_get_subdirs. This isn't possible from an introspection binding that transforms
the returned GHashTable, and may also leave the tree checksum in an invalid
state. Introduce a new method so that removing files or subdirectories is
safe, and possible from bindings.
Closes: #1724

Running `ostree commit --tree=ref=a --tree=dir=b` involves reading the
whole of a into an `OstreeMutableTree` before composing `b` on top. This
is inefficient if a is a complete rootfs and b is just touching one file.
We process O(size of a + size of b) directories rather than
O(number of touched dirs).
This commit makes `ostree commit` more efficient at composing multiple
directories together. With `ostree_mutable_tree_fill_empty_from_dirtree`
we create a lazy `OstreeMutableTree` which only reads the underlying
information from disk when needed. We don't need to read all the
subdirectories just to get the checksum of a tree already checked into the
repo.
This provides great speedups when composing a rootfs out of multiple other
rootfs as we do in our build system. We compose multiple containers
together with:
ostree commit --tree=ref=base-rootfs --tree=ref=container1 --tree=ref=container2
and it is much faster now.
As a test I ran
time ostree --repo=... commit --orphan --tree=ref=big-rootfs --tree=dir=modified_etc
Where modified_etc contained a modified sudoers file under /etc. I used
`strace` to count syscalls and I seperatly took timing measurements. To
test with a cold cache I ran
sync && echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
Results:
| | Before | After |
| -------------------- | ------ | ----- |
| Time (cold cache) | 8.1s | 0.12s |
| Time (warm cache) | 3.7s | 0.08s |
| `openat` calls | 53589 | 246 |
| `fgetxattr` calls | 78916 | 0 |
I'm not sure if this will have some negative interaction with the
`_ostree_repo_commit_modifier_apply` which is short-circuited here. I
think it was disabled for `--tree=ref=` anyway, but I'm not certain. All
the tests pass anyway.
I originally implemented this in terms of the `OstreeRepoFile` APIs, but
it was *way* less efficient, opening and reading many files unnecessarily.

Currently the API that allows P2P operations (e.g. pulling an ostree ref
from a LAN or USB source) is hidden behind the configure flag
--enable-experimental-api. This commit makes the API public and makes
that flag essentially a no-op (leaving it in place in case we want to
use it again in the future). The P2P API has been tested over the last
several months and proven to work.
This means that since we're no longer using the "experimental" feature
flag, P2P builds of Flatpak will fail when using versions of OSTree from
this commit onwards, until Flatpak is patched in the near future. If you
want to build Flatpak < 0.11.8 with P2P enabled and link against OSTree
2018.6, you'll have to patch Flatpak. However, since Flatpak won't yet
have a hard dependency on OSTree 2018.6, it needs a new way to determine
if the P2P API in OSTree is available, so this commit adds a "p2p"
feature flag. This way the feature set is more semantically correct than
if we had continued to use the "experimental" feature flag.
In addition to making the P2P API public, this commit makes the P2P unit
tests run by default, removes the f27-experimental CI instance that's no
longer needed, changes a few man pages to reflect the changes, and
updates the bash completion script to accept the new commands and
options.

The initial motivation for this is that the "staging" code currently
didn't rewrite the deployment refs, meaning that the staged commit
could be pruned.
Hence first, this new API ensures that deployments also
hold a strong ref to their commit, without relying on the magical
"deployment refs" that we inject. That has always been a weird
artifact of the strict layering separation between OstreeSysroot
and OstreeRepo.
I also plan to change rpm-ostree to start using this API to
hold references to base layers for client-side layering; it also
today generates various refs.
That said, if we still want to support multiple processes
writing to a single repo (as happens on EndlessOS today) we
still need to write refs; perhaps later we could add a concept
of "generators" or something that create refs based on whatever
logic?
Another minor thing this fixes is that we had a printf inside
the library; this propagates the pruned data to the higher level
which can log however it likes.

The code has been sitting around for a while but since I disabled
it by default, I doubt anyone is really using it or relying on it.
This patch and turns on locking by default, and also drops the
API which was only public in the experimental API builds.
Conceptually these are two distinct things, and we
may actually want to split up the patches.
I don't think this will break anyone, but it's hard to say for sure.
It's also going to be hard to find out until we actually release
I suspect...
But anyone who is broken should be able to add `locking=false` into
their repo config. On the flip side Endless has been shipping with
this enabled and it is reported to help.
The reason to drop the APIs: I'm a bit concerned about the interactions over time
between libostree's use of the API and any apps that start using it.
For example, if an app specifies a SHARED lock in their code, then
later internally we decide to temporarily grab an `EXCLUSIVE`, but the
app had a second thread/process that was `EXCLUSIVE` already, and
that process was waiting on the first bit of code, then we could
deadlock. I can't think of a real world situation where this would happen
yet though.
We are likely to in the future have say `fsck` take an external lock,
`checkout` grab a shared one, etc.

[jigdo](https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/issues/1081) where we're
importing RPMs on both the client and server, and will be using the
content checksum, since the client/server cases inject different metadata

* 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

A while ago I did `truncate -s 0 /path/to/repo/00/123.commit`, and expected a
checksum error, but I actually got a validation error due to us loading the
commit into a variant and trying to parse out the parent checksum, etc.
I first started by changing the `load_and_fsck_one_object()` function to
checksum before loading, but the problem is that we do a traverse of all objects
first. Fixing this is going to require an `OSTREE_REPO_COMMIT_TRAVER_FLAG_FSCK`
or something.
In the meantime at least though, let's add a public API to fsck a single object
which *does* checksum cleanly before parsing the object, and change the `fsck`
command to use it.
We then change the fsck binary to do this while iterating over the refs
and finding the commit object. This way we'll at least get a checksum
first for commit objects, even if not dirtree/dirmeta.

Currently ostree has no method of guarding against concurrent pruning.
When there are multiple repo writers, it's possible to have a pull or
commit race against a prune and end up with missing objects.
This adds a file based repo locking mechanism. The intention is to take
a shared lock when writing objects and an exclusive lock when deleting
them. In order to make use of the locking throughout the library in a
fine grained fashion, the lock acts recursively with a stack of lock
states. If the lock becomes exclusive, it will stay in that state until
the stack is unwound past the initial exclusive push. The file locking
is similar to GLnxLockFile in that it uses open file descriptor locks
but falls back to flock when needed.
The lock also attempts to be thread safe by storing the lock state in
thread local storage with GPrivate. This means that each thread will
have an independent lock for each repository it opens. There are some
drawbacks to that, but it seemed impossible to manage the lock state
coherently in the face of multithreaded access.
The API is a push/pop interface in accordance with the recursive nature
of the locking. The push interface uses an enum that's translated to
LOCK_SH or LOCK_EX as needed. Both interfaces use an internal timeout
field to decide whether to manage the lock in a blocking or non-blocking
fashion. The intention is to allow ostree applications as well as
administrators to control this timeout. For now, the default is a 30
second timeout.
Note that the timeout is handled synchronously in thread since the lock
is maintained in thread local storage. I.e., the thread that acquires
the lock needs to be the same thread that runs the operation. There may
be a way to offer an asynchronous version, but it's not clear exactly
how that would work since it would likely involve a separate thread that
invokes a callback when the locking operation completes.

When using dynamic remotes (LAN and USB), we cannot use their name with
the common remote related ops (ostree_repo_remote_...) because ostree
doesn't keep this type of remotes in its internal hash table.
Unfortunately this means that we cannot access the URL of those remotes
either (in order to e.g. set the right URL for those remotes in
Flatpak).
Since the URL is actually stored in a key file that belongs to the
OstreeRemote, then we can simply allow users access to it through a
getter.
So this patch adds a method that allows to return the URL directly from
the OstreeRemote without having to go through the OstreeRepo.
The test-repo-finder-config is also updated by this patch to check if
the URL is correct.

As discussed in https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/946, the
summary file is becoming an unsigned cache of ref information; any
additional metadata for the repository needs to move elsewhere in order
to remain signed. Introduce OSTREE_REPO_METADATA_REF as the well-known
name of a ref where such metadata can live, as the metadata on
contentless commits.
Don’t yet update the documentation for summary-related methods to
mention this, since it’s still hidden behind the
--enable-experimental-api configure option.
