2015-06-09support hashes for compressed pdiff filesDavid Kalnischkies
At the moment we only have hashes for the uncompressed pdiff files, but via the new '$HASH-Download' field in the .diff/Index hashes can be provided for the .gz compressed pdiff file, which apt will pick up now and use to verify the download. Now, we "just" need a buy in from the creators of repositories…
2015-06-09rework hashsum verification in the acquire systemDavid Kalnischkies
Having every item having its own code to verify the file(s) it handles is an errorprune process and easy to break, especially if items move through various stages (download, uncompress, patching, …). With a giant rework we centralize (most of) the verification to have a better enforcement rate and (hopefully) less chance for bugs, but it breaks the ABI bigtime in exchange – and as we break it anyway, it is broken even harder. It shouldn't effect most frontends as they don't deal with the acquire system at all or implement their own items, but some do and will need to be patched (might be an opportunity to use apt on-board material). The theory is simple: Items implement methods to decide if hashes need to be checked (in this stage) and to return the expected hashes for this item (in this stage). The verification itself is done in worker message passing which has the benefit that a hashsum error is now a proper error for the acquire system rather than a Done() which is later revised to a Failed().
2015-04-19calculate only expected hashes in methodsDavid Kalnischkies
Methods get told which hashes are expected by the acquire system, which means we can use this list to restrict what we calculate in the methods as any extra we are calculating is wasted effort as we can't compare it with anything anyway. Adding support for a new hash algorithm is therefore 'free' now and if a algorithm is no longer provided in a repository for a file, we automatically stop calculating it. In practice this results in a speed-up in Debian as we don't have SHA512 here (so far), so we practically stop calculating it.

2014-11-08replace ignore-deprecated #pragma dance with _PragmaDavid Kalnischkies
For compatibility we use/provide and fill quiet some deprecated methods and fields, which subsequently earns us a warning for using them. These warnings therefore have to be disabled for these codeparts and that is what this change does now in a slightly more elegant way. Git-Dch: Ignore
2014-10-24promote filesize to a hashstringDavid Kalnischkies
It is a very simple hashstring, which is why it isn't contributing to the usability of a list of them, but it is also trivial to check and calculate, so it doesn't hurt checking it either as it can combined even with the simplest other hashes greatly complicate attacks on them as you suddenly need a same-size hash collision, which is usually a lot harder to achieve.
2014-05-09use HashStringList in the acquire systemDavid Kalnischkies
It is not very extensible to have the supported Hashes hardcoded everywhere and especially if it is part of virtual method names. It is also possible that a method does not support the 'best' hash (yet), so we might end up not being able to verify a file even though we have a common subset of supported hashes. And those are just two of the cases in which it is handy to have a more dynamic selection. The downside is that this is a MAJOR API break, but the HashStringList has a string constructor for compatibility, so with a bit of luck the few frontends playing with the acquire system directly are okay.
2014-05-09add a simple container for HashStringsDavid Kalnischkies
APT supports more than just one HashString and even allows to enforce the usage of a specific hash. This class is intended to help with storage and passing around of the HashStrings. Git-Dch: Ignore

2011-12-13revert 2184.1.2: do not pollute namespace in headersDavid Kalnischkies
The breakage is just to big for now, so guard the change with #ifndef APT_8_CLEANER_HEADERS and be nice to library users

- fix anohter missing cstring include
2007-07-30* apt-pkg/acquire-item.{cc,h}:Michael Vogt
- rename "hash" into ExpectedHash in pkgAcqFile, pkgAcqIndex - add missing HashSum() call to class pkgAcqIndex - use the data provided by acquire-method (and send via the {SHA256,SHA1,MD5Sum}-Hash tag when comparing the hash, this avoids calculating the hash twice (just like old libapt) * apt-pkg/acquire-method.cc: - send MD5Sum-Hash tag to libapt to be consistant with HashString::SupportedHashes() * apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc: - check with "Owner->HashSum().HashType()" what hash the frontend is expecting and pass it to pkgAcquireItem::Done() in the new HashString format - add some debugging output * apt-pkg/contrib/hashes.cc: - fix off-by-one error when constructing a HashString from a single input string * apt-pkg/contrib/hashes.h: - add "HashType()" method * apt-pkg/init.h, apt-pkg/makefile, methods/makefile: - break ABI
