2016-04-13do not require non-broken systems in 'upgrade'David Kalnischkies
There is a good chance that the attempt will fail, but if a user mentions certain packages explicitly on the commandline there is a chance that this will consist of a broken system which is resolved by upgrading more packages then just the mentioned. This limitation was not effecting external resolvers.
2016-04-07stop handling items in doomed transactionsDavid Kalnischkies
With the previous commit we track the state of transactions, so we can now use our knowledge to avoid processing data for a transaction which was already closed (via an abort in this case). This is needed as multiple independent processes are interacting in the process, so there isn't a simple immediate full-engine stop and it would also be bad to teach each and every item how to check if its manager has failed subordinate and what to do in that case. In the pdiff case, which deals (potentially) with many items during its lifetime e.g. a hashsum mismatch in another file can abort the transaction the file we try to patch via pdiff belongs to. This causes some of the items (which are already done) to be aborted with it, but items still in the process of acquisition continue in the processing and will later try to use all the items together failing in strange ways as cleanup already happened. The chosen solution is to dry up the communication channels instead by ignoring new requests for data acquisition, canceling requests which are not assigned to a queue and not calling Done/Failed on items anymore. This means that e.g. already started or pending (e.g. pipelined) downloads aren't stopped and continue as normal for now, but they remain in partial/ and aren't processed further so the next update command will pick them up and put them to good use while the current process fails updating (for this transaction group) in an orderly fashion. Closes: 817240 Thanks: Barr Detwix & Vincent Lefevre for log files
2016-04-07ensure transaction states are changed only onceDavid Kalnischkies
We want to keep track of the state of a transaction overall to base future decisions on it, but as a pre-requirement we have to make sure that a transaction isn't commited twice (which happened if the download of InRelease failed and Release takes over). It also happened to create empty commits after a transaction was already aborted in cases in which the Release files were rejected. This isn't effecting security at the moment, but to ensure this isn't happening again and can never be bad a bunch of fatal error messages are added to make regressions on this front visible.
2016-04-03don't leak on error in listparser creationDavid Kalnischkies
Git-Dch: Ignore Reported-By: gcc -fsanitize=address
2016-04-03use buffered writing for InRelease splittingDavid Kalnischkies
Hardly noticeable, but given that we have the option to easily enable it, lets enable it as every newline in the message is written individually by the code.
2016-04-03consistently add APT_OVERRIDE as method markerDavid Kalnischkies
Some methods had it missing, some used the keyword directly, which isn't a problem as it is a cc file, but for consistency lets stick to our macro for now. Git-Dch: Ignore
2016-03-28Allow lowering trust level of a hash via configJulian Andres Klode
Introduces APT::Hashes::<NAME> with entries Untrusted and Weak which can be set to true to cause the hash to be treated as untrusted and/or weak.
2016-03-27Do not mark packages for keep that we want to removeJulian Andres Klode
If the package is marked for removal, keep it marked for removal and do not mark it for keep. If we mark it for keep, we some how later get to a different stage where it is marked for unpack instead of removal. In the example in the bug report, we would get a: SmartUnPack maas-region-controller-min:amd64 (replace version 2.0.0~alpha3+bzr4810-0ubuntu1 with Segmentation fault maas-region-controller-min:amd64 was marked for removal, but we changed it to keep and somehow it thinks that this is to be replaced now instead of removed (probably because the InstallVer != CandidateVer [with InstallVer = 0]). This fixes a regression introduced in release 1.2.7, commit: 0390edd5452b081f8efcf412f96d535a1d959457 Reported-by: LaMont Jones on IRC LP: #1562402
2016-03-25drop confusing comma from no strong hash messageDavid Kalnischkies
2016-03-24Set hidden visibility for StringViewJulian Andres Klode
This avoids templates using StringView to be exported, such as std::vector<StringView*>::emplace_back(). Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-03-19refactor loading of previous release fileDavid Kalnischkies
There is really no need to have the same code three times. Git-Dch: Ignore
2016-03-19cachefile: Only set members that were initialized successfullyJulian Andres Klode
Otherwise, things will just start failing later down the stack, because (a) the lazy getters do not check if building was successful and (b) any further getter call would return the invalid object anyway. Also initialize VS in pkgCache to nullptr by default. Closes: #818628
2016-03-16do not strip epochs from state version stringsDavid Kalnischkies
The epoch stripping in this code is done since day one, but in other places we show a version epochs are not stripped. If epochs are present in packages they tend to be an important information which we can't just drop and especially can't drop "sometimes" as that confuses users and tools alike – so even if removing code in use for (close to) 18 years feels wrong, it is probably the right choice for consistency. Closes: 818162
2016-03-16Use descriptive URIs in 104 Warning messagesJulian Andres Klode
This makes the new GPG related warnings much nicer to read, for example, the second one here replaces the first one: W: gpgv:/var/lib/apt/lists/example.com_dists_stable_InRelease: Weak ... W: http://example.com/dists/stable/InRelease: Weak ...
2016-03-16Report non-transient errors as errors, not as warningsJulian Andres Klode
This makes it easier to understand what really is an error and what not.
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
2016-03-15Fix bug where the problemresolve can put a pkg into a heisenstateMichael Vogt
The problemresolver will set the candidate version for pkg P back to the current version if it encounters an impossible to satisfy critical dependency on P. However it did not set the State of the package back as well which lead to a situation where P is neither in Keep,Install,Upgrade,Delete state. Note that this can not be tested via the traditional sh based framework. I added a python-apt based test for this. LP: #1550741 [jak@debian.org: Make the test not fail if apt_pkg cannot be imported]
2016-03-15apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc: Introduce 104 Warning messageJulian Andres Klode
This can be used by workers to send warnings to the main program. The messages will be passed to _error->Warning() by APT with the URI prepended. We are not going to make that really public now, as the interface might change a bit.
2016-03-14enforce verify of filesize in 'apt-get source'David Kalnischkies
The structure we parse the data into has a dedicated size field, but it tends to be easier to handle it as a (very weak) checksum.
2016-03-14don't use Desc.URI to calculate .diff/Index filenamesDavid Kalnischkies
The URI descibing an item can change via mirrors/redirectors which causes the .diff/Index files to get the wrong names in storage. Git-Dch: Ignore
2016-03-14streamline dpkgpm cleanup-handlingDavid Kalnischkies
The (unlikely) waitpid failure case should fallthrough the code just like the other failures (and successes) instead of taking a shortcut avoiding all the cleanup (progress) and finishing touches (log, state). This also delays the cleanup of the progress until apt is really done with everything and "just" has the post-invokes left to do, so the period of 'apt looks finished as it stopped the progress' and 'apt really finished as I have the shell-prompt back' is shorter even if there is no progress reported anymore, so the bar lingers at 100%… Ideally even the post-invokes would be covered by progress, but they can have their own output and dealing with that could be hard. Git-Dch: Ignore
2016-03-14flush line-clearing on progress stop before post-invokeDavid Kalnischkies
All other interactions with std::cout are flushed directly, just in the stop case we hadn't done it – no problem expect if there is still output coming after apt is done like in the case of a post-invoke script producing output. Closes: 793672
2016-03-14require $(HASH)-Download field in .diff/Index filesDavid Kalnischkies
Now that we ignore SHA1-only files it makes sense to require also the provision of hashes for the compressed patches as this was introduced in the same patchset as support for non-SHA1 hashes in the file itself in dak and adding support in other archive creators (if they support pdiffs at all) will likely be in the same batch. The reason for the change itself is simple: If you are 'scared' enough about the security of SHA1, you shouldn't uncompress a file you haven't verified at all – after all, it could be exploiting a bug or a zip bomb.
2016-03-13Do not consider SHA1 usableJulian Andres Klode
SHA1 is not reasonably secure anymore, so we should not consider it usable anymore. The test suite is adjusted to account for this.
2016-03-07apt-pkg/algorithms.cc: Avoid stack buffer overflow in KillListJulian Andres Klode
Dynamically allocate KillList in order to avoid an overflow when more than 100 elements would be written to it. This happened while playing around with the status file from Bug#701069 on a modern system.

2016-03-06get group again after potential remap in Source: parseDavid Kalnischkies
Mysteriously segfaults only on i386 for me, but at least one reporter had the same behavior and it makes sense that this is the problem as the parsing of Source: was fixed in 1.2.2 – before the not remapped group was not used. We don't use our usual Dynamic<> trick here as we don't have it in the parser. Its a bit of a layer violation to do this parsing here, but its how it is always was… Until next time with this lovely kind of problem. Closes: 812251 Thanks: Francesco Poli and Marc Haber for testdata.
2016-03-06Prevent double remapping of iterators and string viewsJulian Andres Klode
If an iterator or a stringview has multiple dynamic objects registered with it, it may be remapped twice. Prevent that by noting which iterators/views we have seen and not remapping one if we have already seen it. We most likely do not have any instance of multiple dynamics on a single object, but let's play safe - the overhead is not high.
2016-03-06do not move not-failed pdiff-patches into CWD on failureDavid Kalnischkies
If a single pdiff fails, we have to fail the entire patching endeavour and fall back to getting the complete file instead. That is easy in serverside merged pdiffs as we get them one by one. For clientside we get them all at once through, which means that a failure in one has to stop the entire pipeline, which works as expected (as proven by the bugreporters as they don't even notice it happening). The problem is just that the first failing pdiff will do the cleanup, so another pdiff which happens to be successfully acquired after we processed the failure doesn't find the file it is supposed to use as a basename anymore, so the patch is renamed to what should be the unique extension and moved into the current working directory. Processing is then stopped as the patch realizes that it isn't the last one which completed downloading. On the plus side this means this is neither us using a bad temporary location nor a security problem. It "just" overrides unconditionally files in your current working directory (if you happen to have them named like a pdiff patch – a bit unlikely perhaps) and so drops files there which are never used again. I guess this was introduced in 4e3c5633b1e74b4f58b95f339cfbbf4cbf21ab3e for real as I made the need for the existence of the base file rather explicit, but the potential lingers in the code for far longer. Closes: #816837
2016-03-06Fix lzma write support to handle "try again" caseColin Watson
The liblzma-based write code needs the same tweaks that the read code already has to cope with the situation where lzma_code returns zero the first time through because avail_out is zero, but will do more work if called again. This ports the read tweaks to the write code as closely as possible (including matching comments etc.). Closes: #751688
2016-03-06deal with partially downloaded changelogsDavid Kalnischkies
Changelogs are relatively small and we have no hashes for them, but we had partial support for them before, so lets stick to it. This also deletes the (partial) file before moving the downloaded file into its place – rename(2) should be doing this by itself, but testing on semaphoreci suggests that this isn't always the case (error is "Stale file handle") and we don't need an atomic replace here, so be explicit.

2016-02-16pass versioned provides to external solvers in EDSPDavid Kalnischkies
The EDSP output generated by apt didn't include the versioned provides information so that every provides looked like an unversioned one in the eyes of an external resolver.
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.
2016-02-11use local changelog from /usr/share/doc if possibleDavid Kalnischkies
If pkgAcqChangelog is told to acquire the changelog for a version it will check first if this version is installed on the disk and if so will use the local changelog in /usr/share/doc (possibily/likely gz compressed) instead of downloading the file from the web. An option is provided to disable this, which is enabled by default for the Ubuntu vendor as they truncate the local changelogs – and for apts --print-uris action.
2016-02-10get dpkg lock in build-dep if cache was invalid againDavid Kalnischkies
Regression introduced in a249b3e6fd798935a02b769149c9791a6fa6ef16, which in the case of an invalid cache would build the first part unlocked and later pick up the (still unlocked) cache for further processing, so the system got never locked and apt would end up complaining about being unable to release the lock at shutdown. The far more common case of having a valid cache worked as expected and hence covered up the problem – especially as tests who would have noticed it are simulations only, which do not lock. Closes: 814139 Reported-By: Balint Reczey <balint@balintreczey.hu> Reported-By: Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de> on IRC
2016-02-10Set seekpos to 0 after reopening files in Seek()Julian Andres Klode
If we just reopened the file, we also need to reset the current seek position when we reset the buffer, otherwise the code will not try to seek to the position given to Skip (from 0), but will try to seek to old offset + the position given to skip. Closes: #812994, #813000
2016-02-04Use some semantically more correct buffer operationsJulian Andres Klode
When writing into the buffer write to free() bytes starting at getend(), instead of buffersize_max bytes at get() -> get() is a read pointer. This makes no difference in practice though, as we reset the buffer before the call, so start = end = 0. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-02-04Correctly report write errors when flushing buffered writerJulian Andres Klode
We cannot just return false without setting an error, as InternalWrite does not set one itself.

Microoptimization, but still gives a measurable 2-3% improvement when using commands with lots of output like `apt list`.
2016-02-01Do not buffer writes larger than the buffer if possibleJulian Andres Klode
It makes no sense to split a large block into multiple small blocks, so when we have the chance to write them unbuffered, do so.

We do not need the loop, FileFd::Private() handles this for us. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-02-01simple_buffer::write: Use free() instead of maxsize - size()Julian Andres Klode
We want to check whether the amount of free space is smaller than the requested write size. Checking maxsize - size() is incorrect for bufferstart >= 0, as size() = end - start. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-01-31support <libc>-<kernel>-<cpu> in architecture specsDavid Kalnischkies
APT has a different understanding than dpkg (#748936) what matches and what doesn't match an architecture specification as it isn't converting back (and forward) to Debian triplets. That has to eventually be solved some way or the other, but until that happens we change the matching in apt so that porters can continue their work on non-gnu libc-ports even if policy doesn't specify that yet (and dpkg just supporting it "by accident" via triplets). The initial patch was reformatted, fixed in terms of patterns containing "any-any", dealing with expanding an arch without libc to gnu while a pattern expands libc to any, the parsedepends test was fixed (the new if's were inserted one step too early) and another test just for the specifications added. Closes: #812212 Thanks: Bálint Réczey for initial patch

2016-01-27only warn about missing/invalid Date field for nowDavid Kalnischkies
The Date field in the Release file is useful to avoid allowing an attacker to 'downgrade' a user to earlier Release files (and hence to older states of the archieve with open security bugs). It is also needed to allow a user to define min/max values for the validation of a Release file (with or without the Release file providing a Valid-Until field). APT wasn't formally requiring this field before through and (agrueable not binding and still incomplete) online documentation declares it optional (until now), so we downgrade the error to a warning for now to give repository creators a bit more time to adapt – the bigger ones should have a Date field for years already, so the effected group should be small in any case. It should be noted that earlier apt versions had this as an error already, but only showed it if a Valid-Until field was present (or the user tried to used the configuration items for min/max valid-until). Closes: 809329
