Let's simplify things and drop the logic that /var/lib/machines is setup
as auto-growing btrfs loopback file /var/lib/machines.raw.
THis was done in order to make quota available for machine management,
but quite frankly never really worked properly, as we couldn't grow the
file system in sync with its use properly. Moreover philosophically it's
problematic overriding the admin's choice of file system like this.
Let's hence drop this, and simplify things. Deleting code is a good
feeling.
Now that regular file systems provide project quota we could probably
add per-machine quota support based on that, hence the btrfs quota
argument is not that interesting anymore (though btrfs quota is a bit
more powerful as it allows recursive quota, i.e. that the machine pool
gets an overall quota in addition to per-machine quota).
Let's handle tarball imports nicer that have a single top-level
directory containing the OS tree: let's move everything down during
import, so that the OS tree is ready to use automatically.
Fixes: #2116
Fixes: #2728
This is also supposed to be preparation for doing #10234 eventually,
where a very similar operation is requested: instead of importing a tree
to /var/lib/machines it would need to be imported into
/var/lib/portables/.
Ideally, coccinelle would strip unnecessary braces too. But I do not see any
option in coccinelle for this, so instead, I edited the patch text using
search&replace to remove the braces. Unfortunately this is not fully automatic,
in particular it didn't deal well with if-else-if-else blocks and ifdefs, so
there is an increased likelikehood be some bugs in such spots.
I also removed part of the patch that coccinelle generated for udev, where we
returns -1 for failure. This should be fixed independently.
This way, we can extend the macro a bit with stuff pulled in from other
headers without this affecting everything which pulls in macro.h, which
is one of our most basic headers.
This is just refactoring, no change in behaviour, in prepartion for
later changes.
After curl 7.20.0, this function never returns negative error codes.
Make this consistent with the other call to this function and only
compare against CURLM_OK.
All over the place we define local variables for the various sockopts
that take a bool-like "int" value. Sometimes they are const, sometimes
static, sometimes both, sometimes neither.
Let's clean this up, introduce a common const variable "const_int_one"
(as well as one matching "const_int_zero") and use it everywhere, all
acorss the codebase.
Yes, there are still a lot of users of bzip2, but it's fallen out of
favour after LZMA/xz, which can compress a lot more and often
decompresses faster than bzip2 too.
According to RFC2616[1], HTTP header names are case-insensitive. So
it's totally valid to have a header starting with either `Date:` or
`date:`.
However, when systemd-importd pulls an image from an HTTP server, it
parses HTTP headers by comparing header names as-is, without any
conversion. That causes failures when some HTTP servers return headers
with different combinations of upper-/lower-cases.
An example:
https://alpha.release.flatcar-linux.net/amd64-usr/current/flatcar_developer_container.bin.bz2 returns `Etag: "pe89so9oir60"`,
while https://alpha.release.core-os.net/amd64-usr/current/coreos_developer_container.bin.bz2
returns `ETag: "f03372edea9a1e7232e282c346099857"`.
Since systemd-importd expects to see `ETag`, the etag for the Container Linux image
is correctly interpreted as a part of the hidden file name.
However, it cannot parse etag for Flatcar Linux, so the etag the Flatcar Linux image
is not appended to the hidden file name.
```
$ sudo ls -al /var/lib/machines/
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 3303014400 Aug 21 20:07 '.raw-https:\x2f\x2falpha\x2erelease\x2ecore-os\x2enet\x2famd64-usr\x2fcurrent\x2fcoreos_developer_container\x2ebin\x2ebz2.\x22f03372edea9a1e7232e282c346099857\x22.raw'
-r--r--r-- 1 root root 3303014400 Aug 17 06:15 '.raw-https:\x2f\x2falpha\x2erelease\x2eflatcar-linux\x2enet\x2famd64-usr\x2fcurrent\x2fflatcar_developer_container\x2ebin\x2ebz2.raw'
```
As a result, when the Flatcar image is removed and downloaded again,
systemd-importd is not able to determine if the file has been already
downloaded, so it always download it again. Then it fails to rename it
to an expected name, because there's already a hidden file.
To fix this issue, let's introduce a new helper function
`memory_startswith_no_case()`, which compares memory regions in a
case-insensitive way. Use this function in `curl_header_strdup()`.

These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
This way we don't need to repeat the argument twice.
I didn't replace all instances. I think it's better to leave out:
- asserts
- comparisons like x & y == x, which are mathematically equivalent, but
here we aren't checking if flags are set, but if the argument fits in the
flags.
Let's rework error handling a bit in image_find() and friends: when we
can't find an image, return -ENOENT rather than 0. That's better as
before we violated the usual rule in our codebase that return parameters
are initialized when the return value is >= 0 and otherwise not touched.
This also makes enumeration and validation a bit more strict: we'll only
accept ".raw" as suffix for regular files, and filter out this suffix
handling on directories/subvolumes, where it makes no sense.
This distuingishes two different classes of images, one for the purpose
of npsawn-like containers, i.e. "machines", and one for portable
services.
This distinction is mostly about search paths. We look for machine
images in /var/lib/machines and for portable images in
/var/lib/portables.
When I see "test", I have to think three times what the return value
means. With "below" this is immediately clear. ratelimit_below(&limit)
sounds almost like English and is imho immediately obvious.
(I also considered ratelimit_ok, but this strongly implies that being under the
limit is somehow better. Most of the times this is true, but then we use the
ratelimit to detect triple-c-a-d, and "ok" doesn't fit so well there.)
C.f. a1bcaa07.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
This is similar to TAKE_PTR() but operates on file descriptors, and thus
assigns -1 to the fd parameter after returning it.
Removes 60 lines from our codebase. Pretty good too I think.
This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.
This takes inspiration from Rust:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take
and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).
It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)
Let's add a common implementation for regular file checks, that are
careful to return the right error code (EISDIR/EISLNK/EBADFD) when we
are encountering a wrong file node.
Those files don't contain any @variables@, so the configuration step was just
copying them to build/. Let's avoid that, and fix their suffixes while at it.
log.h really should only include the bare minimum of other headers, as
it is really pulled into pretty much everything else and already in
itself one of the most basic pieces of code we have.
Let's hence drop inclusion of:
1. sd-id128.h because it's entirely unneeded in current log.h
2. errno.h, dito.
3. sys/signalfd.h which we can replace by a simple struct forward
declaration
4. process-util.h which was needed for getpid_cached() which we now hide
in a funciton log_emergency_level() instead, which nicely abstracts
the details away.
5. sys/socket.h which was needed for struct iovec, but a simple struct
forward declaration suffices for that too.
Ultimately this actually makes our source tree larger (since users of
the functionality above must now include it themselves, log.h won't do
that for them), but I think it helps to untangle our web of includes a
tiny bit.
(Background: I'd like to isolate the generic bits of src/basic/ enough
so that we can do a git submodule import into casync for it)
