This makes it easier to see which headers includes what.
The changes were done by running
git grep -l '#\s*include' \
| grep -E '.(cc|h)$' \
| xargs sed -i -E 's/(^\s*)#(\s*)include/\1#\2 include/'
To modify all include lines by adding a space, and then running
./git-clang-format.sh.

rred can fail for a plentory of reasons, but its failure is usually
recoverable (Ign lines) so it shouldn't leak unrequested debug messages
to an observing user.

memcpy is marked as nonnull for its input, but ignores the input anyhow
if the declared length is zero. Our SHA2 implementations do this as
well, it was "just" MD5 and SHA1 missing, so we add the length check
here as well as along the callstack as it is really pointless to do all
these method calls for "nothing".

The https method implemented for a long while now a hardcoded fallback
to the same options in http, which, while it works, is rather inflexible
if we want to allow the methods to use another name to change their
behavior slightly, like apt-transport-tor does to https – most of the
diff being s#https#tor#g which then fails to do the full circle
fallthrough tor -> https -> http for https sources. With this config
infrastructure this could be implemented now.

If another file in the transaction fails and hence dooms the transaction
we can end in a situation in which a -patched file (= rred writes the
result of the patching to it) remains in the partial/ directory.
The next apt call will perform the rred patching again and write its
result again to the -patched file, but instead of starting with an empty
file as intended it will override the content previously in the file
which has the same result if the new content happens to be longer than
the old content, but if it isn't parts of the old content remain in the
file which will pass verification as the new content written to it
matches the hashes and if the entire transaction passes the file will be
moved the lists/ directory where it might or might not trigger errors
depending on if the old content which remained forms a valid file
together with the new content.
This has no real security implications as no untrusted data is involved:
The old content consists of a base file which passed verification and a
bunch of patches which all passed multiple verifications as well, so the
old content isn't controllable by an attacker and the new one isn't
either (as the new content alone passes verification). So the best an
attacker can do is letting the user run into the same issue as in the
report.

We read the entire input file we want to patch anyhow, so we can also
calculate the hash for that file and compare it with what he had
expected it to be.
Note that this isn't really a security improvement as a) the file we
patch is trusted & b) if the input is incorrect, the result will hardly be
matching, so this is just for failing slightly earlier with a more
relevant error message (althrough, in terms of rred its ignored and
complete download attempt instead).

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.

We basically ignored errors from writing and flushing, let's
not do that.

There is no reason to enforce that the file we start the bootstrap with
is compressed with a compressor which is available online. This allows
us to change the on-disk format as well as deals with repositories
adding/removing support for a specific compressor.

Remove the SingleInstance flag so we can use the new randomized

Buffered writes improve performance a lot, given that we spent

This converts all callers that read machine-generated data,
callers that might work with user input are not converted.

This introduces a -t mode in which the first argument is input,
the second is output and the remaining are diffs.
This allows us to test patching compressed files, which are
detected using their file extension.

Allows users who know what they are getting themselves into with this
trick to e.g. disable privilege dropping for e.g. file:// until they can
fix up the permissions on those repositories. It helps also the test
framework and people with a similar setup (= me) to run in less modified
environments.

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.

Some additional files like 'Contents' are very big and should therefore
kept compressed on the disk, which apt-file did in the past. It also
implemented pdiff patching of these files by un- and recompressing these
files on-the-fly, with this commit we can do the same – but we can do
this in both pdiff patching styles (client and server merging) and
secured by hashes.
Hashes are in so far slightly complicated as we can't compare the hashes
of the compressed files as we might compress them differently than the
server would (different compressor versions, options, …), so we must
compare the hashes of the uncompressed content.
While this commit has changes in public headers, the classes it changes
are marked as hidden, so nobody can use them directly, which means the
ABI break is internal only.

C++11 adds the 'override' specifier to mark that a method is overriding
a base class method and error out if not. We hide it in the APT_OVERRIDE
macro to ensure that we keep compiling in pre-c++11 standards.

For some reason travis seems to be unhappy about it claiming it

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…
|

The rred parser is very accepting regarding 'invalid' files. Given that
we can't trust the input it might be a bit too relaxed. In any case,
checking for more errors can't hurt given that we support only a very
specific subset of ed commands.

rred is responsible for unpacking and reading the patch files in one go,
but we currently only have hashes for the uncompressed patch files, so
the handler read the entire patch file before dispatching it to the
worker which would read it again – both with an implicit uncompress.
Worse, while the workers operate in parallel the handler is the central
orchestration unit, so having it busy with work means the workers do
(potentially) nothing.
This means rred is working with 'untrusted' data, which is bad. Yet,
having the unpack in the handler meant that the untrusted uncompress was
done as root which isn't better either. Now, we have it at least
contained in a binary which we can harden a bit better. In the long run,
we want hashes for the compressed patch files through to be safe.
|
|
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.

It does not have any desired sideeffect, so we just mark it as const to

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.

Use retry_fwrite to better handle partial fwrite successes, and to keep
the Hashes in sync with what's actually written.

Providing the benefits of both without the downsides :)
(ABI breaks or external dependencies)
For this Anthonys rred is equipped with:
- magic-filename-pickup of patches rather than explicit messages
- use of FileFd instead of FILE* to get on-the-fly uncompress
of the gzip compressed pdiff patches
The acquire code in turn stops checking for apt-file's helper
as our own rred is now clever enough for our needs.

Based on the idea presented in:
https://lists.debian.org/deity/2009/08/msg00169.html and
https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2014/01/msg00081.html
It reads all patches one by one and merges them in-memory before
applying the merged changes to the index.
Beware: This commit by David Kalnischkies rips out the rred binary
rewrite unchanged (expect minor format issue corrections) from the
proposed changes, so this commit alone BREAKS pdiff completely.
The integration into the acquire system as it was prepared in the
previous POC will be done in the next commit to have proper 'blame'.

The idea of pdiffs is to avoid downloading the hole file by patching the
existing index. This works very well, but becomes slow if a lot of
patches needs to be applied to reconstruct an up-to-date index and in
recent years more and more dinstall (or similar) runs are executed
creating more and more pdiffs in the same amount of time, so pdiffs
became less useful.
The solution is simple: Reduce the amount of patches (which are very
small) which need to be applied on top of the index we have available
(which is usually pretty big).
This can be done in two ways: Either merge the patches on the
server-side so that the client has to download only one patch or the
patches are all downloaded and merged on the client-side.
The first needs a client who is doing one step at a time who can also
skip patches if it needs (APT supports this for a long time now).
The later is implemented by this commit, but depends on the server NOT
merging the patches and the patches being in a strict order in which no
patch is skipped.
This is traditionally the case for dak, but other repository creators
support merging – e.g. reprepro (which helpfully adds a flag indicating
that the patches are merged). To support both or even mixes a client
needs more information which isn't available for now.
This POC uses the external diffindex-rred included in apt-file to
do the heavy lifting of merging & applying all patches in one pass,
hence to test this feature apt-file needs to be installed.
