All apt versions support numeric as well as 3-character timezones just
fine and its actually hard to write code which doesn't "accidently"
accepts it. So why change? Documenting the Date/Valid-Until fields in
the Release file is easy to do in terms of referencing the
datetime format used e.g. in the Debian changelogs (policy §4.4). This
format specifies only the numeric timezones through, not the nowadays
obsolete 3-character ones, so in the interest of least surprise we should
use the same format even through it carries a small risk of regression
in other clients (which encounter repositories created with
apt-ftparchive).
In case it is really regressing in practice, the hidden option
-o APT::FTPArchive::Release::NumericTimezone=0
can be used to go back to good old UTC as timezone.
The EDSP and EIPP protocols use this 'new' format, the text interface
used to communicate with the acquire methods does not for compatibility
reasons even if none of our methods would be effected and I doubt any
other would (in these instances the timezone is 'GMT' as that is what
HTTP/1.1 requires). Note that this is only true for apt talking to
methods, (libapt-based) methods talking to apt will respond with the
'new' format. It is therefore strongly adviced to support both also in
method input.

We use a wild mixture of C and C++ ways of generating output, so having
a consistent world-view in both styles sounds like a good idea and
should help in preventing regressions.

when using the https transport mechanism, $no_proxy is ignored if apt is
getting it's proxy information from $https_proxy (as opposed to
Acquire::https::Proxy somewhere in apt config). if the source of proxy
information is Acquire::https::Proxy set in apt.conf (or apt.conf.d),
then $no_proxy is honored.
|
|
This converts all callers that read machine-generated data,
callers that might work with user input are not converted.

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.

Detecting network errors has some benefits in the acquire system as if
we can't connect to a host trying it for a million files is pointless.
http and co which use connect.cc deal with this, but https which uses
curl had connection failures as "normal" errors which could potentially
be worked around (like trying Release instead of the failed InRelease).

The variable "Size" was misleading and caused bug #1445239. To
avoid similar issues in the future, rename it to make the meaning
more obvious.

Not all servers we are talking to support If-Modified-Since and some are
not even sending Last-Modified for us, so in an effort to detect such
hits we run a hashsum check on the 'old' compared to the 'new' file, we
got the hashes for the 'new' already for "free" from the methods anyway
and hence just need to calculated the old ones.
This allows us to detect hits even with unsupported servers, which in
turn means we benefit from all the new hit behavior also here.
|
|
If we have the expected hashes we can check with them if the file we
have in partial we got a 416 for is the expected file. We detected this
with same-size before, but not every server sends a good Content-Range
header with a 416 response.
|
|
We do this in HTTP already to give the CPU some exercise while the disk
is heavily spinning (or flashing?) to store the data avoiding the need
to reread the entire file again later on to calculate the hashes – which
happens outside of the eyes of progress reporting, so you might ended up
with a bunch of https workers 'stuck' at 100% while they were busy
calculating hashes.
This is a bummer for everyone using apt as a connection speedtest as the
https method works slower now (not really, it just isn't reporting done
too early anymore).
|
|
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.

The worker expects that the methods tell him when they start or finish
downloading a file. Various information pieces are passed along in this
report including the (expected) filesize. https was using a "global"
struct for reporting which made it 'reuse' incorrect values in some
cases like a non-existent InRelease fallbacking to Release{,.gpg}
resulting in a size-mismatch warning. Reducing the scope and redesigning
the setting of the values we can fix this and related issues.

It might be quite interesting which file (content) made curl freak out
and other methods keep the file around as well.

size-mismatch warning scaring and desensitizing users as well as being subject
to a race between the write_data and progress callbacks generating incorrect
progress reporting and potentially the same error message.
Other branches as well as the bugreports contain 'better' fixes making the
struct local and other sensible changes, but are larger as a result, so in
this version we opted for short diff with minimal effect above else instead.

Bug #778375 uncovered that https wasn't properly integrated in the class
family tree of http as it was supposed to be leading to a NULL pointer
dereference. Fixing this 'properly' was deemed to much diff for
practically no gain that late in the release, so commit
0c2dc43d4fe1d026650b5e2920a021557f9534a6 just fixed the synptom, while
this commit here is fixing the cause plus adding a test.

Add a explicit ReceivedData to HttpsMethod that indicates when
we got data from the connection so that we can send URISTart()
to the parent.
This is needed because URIStart got moved in f9b4f12d from
the progress_callback to write_data() and it only checks for
Res.Size. In the old code if progress_callback is called by
libcurl (and sets Res.Size) before write_data is called then
URIStart() is never send. Making this a explicit ReceivedData
variable fixes this issue.

Real webservers (like apache) actually send an error page with a 416
response, but our client didn't expect it leaving the page on the socket
to be parsed as response for the next request (http) or as file content
(https), which isn't what we want at all… Symptom is a "Bad header line"
as html usually doesn't parse that well to an http-header.
This manifests itself e.g. if we have a complete file (or larger) in
partial/ which isn't discarded by If-Range as the server doesn't support
it (or it is just newer, think: mirror rotation).
It is a sort-of regression of 78c72d0ce22e00b194251445aae306df357d5c1a,
which removed the filesize - 1 trick, but this had its own problems…
To properly test this our webserver gains the ability to reply with
transfer-encoding: chunked as most real webservers will use it to send
the dynamically generated error pages.
(The tests and their binary helpers had to be slightly modified to
apply, but the patch to fix the issue itself is unchanged.)

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.

Add a new "Debian-apt" user that owns the /var/lib/apt/lists
and /var/cache/apt/archive directories. The methods
http, https, ftp, gpgv, gzip switch to this user when they
start.
Thanks to Julian and "ioerror" and tors "switch_id()" code.

When doing Acquire::http{,s}::Proxy-Auto-Detect, run the auto-detect
command for each host instead of only once. This should make using
"proxy" from libproxy-tools feasible which can then be used for PAC
style or other proxy configurations.

This change prevents changing the protocol from https to http.
|
|
Reporting it via progress means that e.g. a redirect will trigger it,
too, so you get a Get & Hit while http only reports a Hit as it should
be.

cppcheck complains about the obsolete utime as it was removed in
POSIX1.2008 and recommends usage of utimensat/futimens instead
as those are in POSIX and so commit 9ce3cfc9 switched to them.
It is just that they aren't as portable as the standard suggests:
At least our kFreeBSD and Hurd ports stumble over it at runtime.
So to make both, the ports and cppcheck happy, we use utimes instead.
Closes: 738567

The most "visible" change is from utime to utimensat/futimens

Servers might respond with a complete file either because they don't
support Ranges at all or the If-Range condition isn't statisfied, so we
have to parse the headers curl gets ourself to seek or truncate the file
we have so far.
This also finially adds the testcase testing a bunch of partial
situations for both, http and https - which is now all green.

As lengthy discussed in lp:1157943 partial https support was utterly
broken as a 206 response was handled as an (unhandled) error. This is
the first part of fixing it by supporting a 206 response and starting to
deal with 416.
