2018-04-10don't hang if multiple sources use unavailable methodDavid Kalnischkies
APT clients always noticed if a method isn't supported and nowadays generate a message of the form: E: The method driver …/foobar could not be found. N: Is the package apt-transport-foobar installed? This only worked if a single source was using such an unavailable method through as we were registering the failed config the first round and the second would try to send requests to the not started method, which wouldn't work and hang instead (+ hiding the error messages as they would be shown only at the end of the execution). Closes: 870675 (cherry picked from commit e250a8d8d8ef2f8f8c5e2041f7645c49fba7aa36) (cherry picked from commit 281dbc8e481fbaeaf7310e0800468d4d212711b8) LP: #1762766
2017-02-22Only merge acquire items with the same meta keyJulian Andres Klode
Since the introduction of by-hash, two differently named files might have the same real URL. In our case, the files icons-64x64.tar.gz and icons-128x128.tar.gz of empty tarballs. APT would try to merge them and end with weird errors because it completed the first download and enters the second stage for decompressing and verifying. After that it would queue a new item to copy the original file to the location, but that copy item would be in the wrong stage, causing it to use the hashes for the decompressed item. Closes: #838441 (cherry picked from commit 7b78e8bef1fc9de22d826db1db9df25f97d3710c) (cherry picked from commit d2749c845954fc1ea38133b050ee49d6f6544235)
2017-02-22remove 'old' FAILED files in the next acquire callDavid Kalnischkies
If apt renames a file to .FAILED it leaves its namespace and is never touched again – expect since 1.1~exp4 in which "apt clean" will remove those files. The usefulness of these files rapidly degrades if you don't keep the update log itself (together with debug output in the best case) through and on 99% of all system they will be kept around forever just to collect dust over time and eat up space. With this commit an update call will remove all FAILED files of previous runs, so that the FAILED files you have on disk are always only the ones related to the last apt run stopping apt from hoarding files. Closes: 846476 (cherry picked from commit 7ca83492e802967f183babf06ab541b1b51f1703) (cherry picked from commit c8540403ed35fa36e1610fd90aeae8f66c126fdb)
2016-11-14Use C locale instead of C.UTF-8 for protocol stringsJulian Andres Klode
The C.UTF-8 locale is not portable, so we need to use C, otherwise we crash on other systems. We can use std::locale::classic() for that, which might also be a bit cheaper than using locale("C"). (cherry picked from commit 0fb16c3e678044d6d06ba8a6199b1e96487ee0d8)
2016-11-14prevent C++ locale number formatting in text APIs (try 3)David Kalnischkies
This time it is the formatting of floating numbers in progress reporting with a radix charater potentially not being dot. Followup of 7303e11ff28f920a6277c159aa46f80c007350bb. Regression of b58e2c7c56b1416a343e81f9f80cb1f02c128e25 in so far as it exchanging very effected with slightly less effected code. LP: 1611010 (cherry picked from commit 0919f1df552ddf022ce4508cbf40e04eae5ef896)
2016-06-01prevent C++ locale number formatting in text APIsDavid Kalnischkies
Setting the C++ locale via std::locale::global(std::locale("")); which would otherwise default to the default C locale (aka: unaffected by setlocale) effects the formatting of numeric types in IO streams, which for output for humans is perfectly sensible, but breaks our many text interfaces used and parsed by us and others without expecting the numbers to be formatted. Closes: #825396 (cherry picked from commit b58e2c7c56b1416a343e81f9f80cb1f02c128e25)
2016-03-16Get accurate progress reporting in apt update againMichael Vogt
For the non-pdiff case, we have can have accurate progress reporting because after fetching the {,In}Release files we know how many IndexFiles will be fetched and what size they have. Therefore init the filesize early (in pkgAcqIndex::Init) and ensure that in Acquire::Pulse() looks at already downloaded bits when calculating the progress in Acquire::Pulse. Also improve debug output of Debug::acquire::progress
2016-02-11always download changelogs into /tmp firstDavid Kalnischkies
pkgAcqChangelog has the default behaviour of downloading a changelog to a temporary directory (inside /tmp, not /tmp directly), which is cleaned up on shutdown, but this can be overridden to store the changelog more permanently – but that caries a permission problem. For changelog we can 'easily' solve this by always downloading to a temporary directory and only move it out of there on done.
2016-01-15revert file-hash based action-merging in acquireDavid Kalnischkies
Introduced in 9d2a8a7388cf3b0bbbe92f6b0b30a533e1167f40 apt tries to merge actions like downloading the same (as judged by hashes) file into doing it once. The implementation was very simple in that it isn't planing at all. Turns out that it works 90% of the time just fine, but has issues in more complicated situations in which items can be in different stages downloading different files emitting potentially the "wrong" hash – like while pdiffs are worked on we might end up copying the patch instead of the result file giving us very strange errors in return. Reverting the change until we can implement a better planing solution seems to be the best course of action even if its sad. Closes: 810046
2016-01-07acquire: Allow parallelizing methods without hostsJulian Andres Klode
The maximum parallelization soft limit is the number of CPU cores * 2 on systems defining _SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN. The hard limit in all cases is Acquire::QueueHost::Limit.

2015-12-07Avoid overflow when summing up file sizesJulian Andres Klode
We need to pass 0llu instead of 0 as the init value, otherwise std::accumulate will calculate with ints. Reported-by: Raphaël Hertzog
2015-11-27Check if the Apt::Sandbox::User exists in CheckDropPrivsMustBeDisabled()Michael Vogt
If it does not exist disabled priv dropping as there is nothing we can drop to. This will unblock people with special chroots or systems that deleted the "_apt" user. Closes: #806406
2015-11-27Deal with killed acquire methods properly instead of hangingMichael Vogt
This fixes a regression caussed by commit 95278287f4e1eeaf5d96749d6fc9bfc53fb400d0 that moved the error detection of RunFds() later into the loop. However this broke detecting issues like dead acquire methods. Instead of relying on the global error state (which is bad) we now pass a boolean value back from RunFds() and break on false. Closes: #806406
2015-11-19ignore lost+found in private directory cleanupDavid Kalnischkies
In ce1f3a2c we started warning about failing unlinking, which we consistently do for directories. That isn't a problem as directories usually aren't in the places we do want to clean up – with the potential exeception of "lost+found", so lets ignore it like we ignore our own partial/ subdirectory. Closes: 805424
2015-11-19do not use _apt for file/copy sources if it isn't world-accessibleDavid Kalnischkies
In 0940230d we started dropping privileges for file (and a bit later for copy, too) with the intend of uniforming this for all methods. The commit message says that the source will likely fail based on the compressors already – and there isn't much secret in the repository content. After all, after apt has run the update everyone can access the content via apt anyway… There are sources through which worked before which are mostly single-deb (and those with the uncompressed files available). The first one being especially surprising for users maybe, so instead of failing, we make it so that apt detects that it can't access a source as _apt and if so doesn't drop (for all sources!) privileges – but we limit this to file/copy, so the uncompress which might be needed will still fail – but that failed before this regression. We display a notice about this, mostly so that if it still fails (e.g. compressed) the user has some idea what is wrong. Closes: 805069
2015-11-04wrap every unlink call to check for != /dev/nullDavid Kalnischkies
Unlinking /dev/null is bad, we shouldn't do that. Also, we should print at least a warning if we tried to unlink a file but didn't manage to pull it of (ignoring the case were the file is /dev/null or doesn't exist in the first place). This got triggered by a relatively unlikely to cause problem in pkgAcquire::Worker::PrepareFiles which would while temporary uncompressed files (which are set to keep compressed) figure out that to files are the same and prepare for sharing by deleting them. Bad move. That also shows why not printing a warning is a bad idea as this hide the error for in non-root test runs. Git-Dch: Ignore

2015-09-14avoid using global PendingError to avoid failing too often too soonDavid Kalnischkies
Our error reporting is historically grown into some kind of mess. A while ago I implemented stacking for the global error which is used in this commit now to wrap calls to functions which do not report (all) errors via return, so that only failures in those calls cause a failure to propergate down the chain rather than failing if anything (potentially totally unrelated) has failed at some point in the past. This way we can avoid stopping the entire acquire process just because a single source produced an error for example. It also means that after the acquire process the cache is generated – even if the acquire process had failures – as we still have the old good data around we can and should generate a cache for (again). There are probably more instances of this hiding, but all these looked like the easiest to work with and fix with reasonable (aka net-positive) effects.
2015-09-01improve CheckDropPrivsMustBeDisabled furtherDavid Kalnischkies
Various smaller improvements so that the check deals better with already downloaded files, relative paths and other things. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-08-31if file is inaccessible for _apt, disable privilege drop in acquireDavid Kalnischkies
We had a very similar method previously for our own private usage, but with some generalisation we can move this check into the acquire system proper so that all frontends profit from this compatibility change. As we are disabling a security feature here a warning is issued and frontends are advised to consider reworking their download logic if possible. Note that this is implemented as an all or nothing situation: We can't just (not) drop privileges for a subset of the files in a fetcher, so in case you have to download some files with and some without you need to use two fetchers.

2015-08-10make all d-pointer * const pointersDavid Kalnischkies
Doing this disables the implicit copy assignment operator (among others) which would cause hovac if used on the classes as it would just copy the pointer, not the data the d-pointer points to. For most of the classes we don't need a copy assignment operator anyway and in many classes it was broken before as many contain a pointer of some sort. Only for our Cacheset Container interfaces we define an explicit copy assignment operator which could later be implemented to copy the data from one d-pointer to the other if we need it. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-08-10apply various style suggestions by cppcheckDavid Kalnischkies
Some of them modify the ABI, but given that we prepare a big one already, these few hardly count for much. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-06-16add d-pointer, virtual destructors and de-inline de/constructorsDavid Kalnischkies
To have a chance to keep the ABI for a while we need all three to team up. One of them missing and we might loose, so ensuring that they are available is a very tedious but needed task once in a while. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-06-15allow ratelimiting progress reporting for testcasesDavid Kalnischkies
Progress reports once in a while which is a bit to unpredictable for testcases, so we enforce a steady progress for them in the hope that this makes the tests (mostly test-apt-progress-fd) a bit more stable. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-06-15condense parallel requests with the same hashes to oneDavid Kalnischkies
It shouldn't be too common, but sometimes people have multiple mirrors in the sources or otherwise repositories with the same content. Now that we gracefully can handle multiple requests to the same URI, we can also fold multiple requests with the same expected hashes into one. Note that this isn't trying to find oppertunities for merging, but just merges if it happens to encounter the oppertunity for it. This is most obvious in the new testcase actually as it needs to delay the action to give the acquire system enough time to figure out that they can be merged.
2015-06-15deal better with acquiring the same URI multiple timesDavid Kalnischkies
This is an unlikely event for indexes and co, but it can happen quiet easily e.g. for changelogs where you want to get the changelogs for multiple binary package(version)s which happen to all be built from a single source. The interesting part is that the Acquire system actually detected this already and set the item requesting the URI again to StatDone - expect that this is hardly sufficient: an Item must be Complete=true as well to be considered truely done and that is only the tip of the ::Done handling iceberg. So instead of this StatDone hack we allow QItems to be owned by multiple items and notify all owners about everything now, so that for the point of each item they got it downloaded just for them.
2014-11-18create our cache and lib directory always with mode 755David Kalnischkies
We autocreate for a while now the last two directories in /var/lib/apt/lists (similar for /var/cache/apt/archives) which is very nice for systems having any of those on tmpfs or other non-persistent storage. This also means though that this creation is effected by the default umask, so for people with aggressive umasks like 027 the directories will be created with 750, which means all non-root users are left out, which is usually exactly what we want then this umask is set, but the cache and lib directories contain public knowledge. There isn't any need to protect them from viewers and they render apt completely useless if not readable.
2014-11-09use pkgAcquire::GetLock instead of own codeDavid Kalnischkies
Do the same with less code in apt-get. This especially ensures that the lock file (and the parent directories) exist before we are trying to lock. It also means that clean now creates the directories if they are missing so we returned to a proper clean state now. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-10-23chown finished partial files earlierDavid Kalnischkies
partial files are chowned by the Item baseclass to let the methods work with them. Now, this baseclass is also responsible for chowning the files back to root instead of having various deeper levels do this. The consequence is that all overloaded Failed() methods now call the Item::Failed base as their first step. The same is done for Done(). The effect is that even in partial files usually don't belong to _apt anymore, helping sneakernets and reducing possibilities of a bad method modifying files not belonging to them. The change is supported by the framework not only supporting being run as root, but with proper permission management, too, so that privilege dropping can be tested with them.

2014-10-13Fix backward compatiblity of the new pkgAcquireMethod::DropPrivsOrDie()Michael Vogt
Do not drop privileges in the methods when using a older version of libapt that does not support the chown magic in partial/ yet. To do this DropPrivileges() now will ignore a empty Apt::Sandbox::User. Cleanup all hardcoded _apt along the way.
2014-10-13do not inline virtual destructors with d-pointersDavid Kalnischkies
Reimplementing an inline method is opening a can of worms we don't want to open if we ever want to us a d-pointer in those classes, so we do the only thing which can save us from hell: move the destructors into the cc sources and we are good. Technically not an ABI break as the methods inline or not do the same (nothing), so a program compiled against the old version still works with the new version (beside that this version is still in experimental, so nothing really has been build against this library anyway). Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-10-07ensure partial dirs are 0700 and owned by _apt:rootDavid Kalnischkies
Reworks the API involved in creating and setting up the fetcher to be a bit more pleasent to look at and work with as e.g. an empty string for no lock isn't very nice. With the lock we can also stop creating all our partial directories "just in case". This way we can also be a bit more aggressive with the partial directory itself as with a lock, we know we will gone need it.
