Let's do this like we usually do and size arrays with size_t.
We already do this for the "allocated" counter correctly, and externally
we expose the queue sizes as uint64_t anyway, hence there's really no
point in usigned "unsigned" internally.
Previously, when we'd copy an individual file we'd synthesize a
user.crtime_usec xattr with the source's creation time if we can
determine it. As the creation/birth time was until recently not
queriable form userspace this effectively just propagated the same xattr
on the source to the same xattr on the destination. However, current
kernels now allow to query the birthtime using statx() and we do make
use of that now. Which means that suddenly we started synthesizing these
xattrs much more regularly.
Doing this actually does make sense, but only in very few cases:
not for the typical regular files we copy, but certainly when dealing
with disk images. Hence, let's keep this kind of propagation, but let's
make it a flag and default to off. Then turn it on whenever we deal with
disk images, and leave it off otherwise.
This is particularly relevant as overlayfs combining a real fs, and a
tmpfs on top will result in EOPNOTSUPP when it is attempted to open a
file with xattrs for writing, as tmpfs does not support xattrs, and
hence the copy-up cannot work. Hence, let's avoid synthesizing this
needlessly, to increase compat with overlayfs.
Previously, we'd refuse the combination, and claimed we'd imply it, but
actually didn't. Let's allow the combination and imply read-only from
--volatile=, because that's what's documented, what we claim we do, and
what makes sense.
We document and all our code assumes that LoaderDevicePartUUID is
initialized to the ESP's UUID. Let's hence not override the variable if
it is already set, in order to not confuse userspace if the kernel's EFI
image is run from a different partition than the ESP.
This matches behaviour for all other variables set by the EFI stub, in
particular the closely related LoaderImageIdentifier variable.
Our own variables are in the the "loader" GUID namespace, but our code
so far checked the "global" GUID namespace (i.e. EFI's own), before
setting the variables. Correct that, so that we always check the right
namespace for existing variables before we write them.
The specification always said so, let's actually implement this.
Unfortunately UEFI's own APIs don't allow us to search for partition
type GUID, hence we have to implement a minimal GPT parser ourselves.
In a follow-up commit we'd like to invoke config_entry_add_from_file()
on partitions that are not the ESP, let's prepare fpr that and allow
loaded_image_path to be passed as NULL.
This makes the code a bit simpler (after all the call is not interested
in the loaded image, just where it is found), and more like
config_load_entries() which takes the same arguments.
This also makes things easier for us later on, when we add support for
discovering images in $XBOOTLDR partitions.
Let's add a new function that checks whether some directory is the
top-level directory inside an fs, splitting out the code for this from
verify_esp().
While we are at it, let's slightly improve the code, so that we can
correctly work if we have no priviliges but the ESP is mounted
unaccessible: if we can't stat() the path "$ESP/.." then manually remove
the last component of $ESP and check that instead. Which is very similar
in behaviour, and hopefully good enough in the unprivileged case.
udev metadata access works unprivileged, which the blkid stuff doesn't
(as that needs raw device node access). Hence let's use udev if we lack
privs, and raw device access only if root.
