In standard linux parlance, "hidden" usually means that the file name starts
with ".", and nothing else. Rename the function to convey what the function does
better to casual readers.
Stop exposing hidden_file_allow_backup which is rather ugly and rewrite
hidden_file to extract the suffix first. Note that hidden_file_allow_backup
excluded files with "~" at the end, which is quite confusing. Let's get
rid of it before it gets used in the wrong place.
get_current_dir_name() can return a variety of errors, not just ENOMEM,
hence don't blindly turn its errors to ENOMEM, but return correct errors
in path_make_absolute_cwd().
This trickles down into a couple of other functions, some of which
receive unrelated minor fixes too with this commit.
Modernize the code a bit:
- Get rid of FOREACH_WORD_SEPARATOR() loop in favour of a
extract_first_word() loop.
- Remove find_binary()'s "local" flag. It's not reasonably possible to
look for binaries on remote systems, we hence should not pretend we
could.
- When we cannot find a suitable binary, return the last error returned
from access() rather than ENOENT unconditionally.
- Rework fsck_exists() and mkfs_exists() to return 1 on success, 0 if
the implementation is missing and negative on real errors. This is
more like we do it in other functions.
- Make sure we also detect direct fsck symlinks to "true", rather than
just absolute ones to /bin/true.
With this change we understand more than just leaf quota groups for
btrfs file systems. Specifically:
- When we create a subvolume we can now optionally add the new subvolume
to all qgroups its parent subvolume was member of too. Alternatively
it is also possible to insert an intermediary quota group between the
parent's qgroups and the subvolume's leaf qgroup, which is useful for
a concept of "subtree" qgroups, that contain a subvolume and all its
children.
- The remove logic for subvolumes has been updated to optionally remove
any leaf qgroups or "subtree" qgroups, following the logic above.
- The snapshot logic for subvolumes has been updated to replicate the
original qgroup setup of the source, if it follows the "subtree"
design described above. It will not cover qgroup setups that introduce
arbitrary qgroups, especially those orthogonal to the subvolume
hierarchy.
This also tries to be more graceful when setting up /var/lib/machines as
btrfs. For example, if mkfs.btrfs is missing we don't even try to set it
up as loopback device.
