2015-05-12detect 416 complete file in partial by expected hashDavid Kalnischkies
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.
2015-04-19calculate hashes while downloading in httpsDavid Kalnischkies
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).
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.
2015-04-19handle servers closing encoded connections correctlyDavid Kalnischkies
Servers who advertise that they close the connection get the 'Closes' encoding flag, but this conflicts with servers who response with a transfer-encoding (e.g. encoding) as it is saved in the same flag. We have a better flag for the keep-alive (or not) of the connection anyway, so we check this instead of the encoding. This is in practice not much of a problem as real servers we talk to are HTTP1.1 servers (with keep-alive) and there isn't much point in doing chunked encoding if you are going to close anyway, but our simple testserver stumbles over this if pressed and its a bit cleaner, too.

2015-04-19send Alt-* info for uncompressed based on any compressionsDavid Kalnischkies
file sends information about the uncompressed file if it can find it as well as for the compressed file. This was done only for gzip so far, but we support more compression types. That this information isn't used a lot is a different story. Git-Dch: Ignore

2015-04-19improve https method queue progress reportingDavid Kalnischkies
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. Closes: 777565, 781509 Thanks: Robert Edmonds and Anders Kaseorg for initial patchs
2015-04-19do not unlink https file on general errorDavid Kalnischkies
It might be quite interesting which file (content) made curl freak out and other methods keep the file around as well. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-04-10reimplement the last uses of sprintfDavid Kalnischkies
Working with strings c-style is complicated and error-prune, so by converting to c++ style we gain some simplicity and avoid buffer overflows by later extensions. Git-Dch: Ignore
2015-03-16derive more of https from http methodDavid Kalnischkies
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.

Do not crash in ServerState::HeaderLine if there is no Owner. Closes: #778375
2015-01-05Fix missing URIStart() for https downloadsMichael Vogt
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.
2014-12-22dispose http(s) 416 error page as non-contentDavid Kalnischkies
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.) Closes: 768797

2014-11-09use getline() instead of rolling our ownDavid Kalnischkies
We use it in other places already as well even though it is farly new addition to the POSIX family with 2008, but rolling our own here is really something which should be avoided in such a important method. Git-Dch: Ignore

'pos_is_okay' It does not have any desired sideeffect, so we just mark it as const to properly advertise this fact to developer, compiler and linter alike. Reported-By: cppcheck Git-Dch: Ignore

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.

2014-10-08Fix ServerMethod::FindMaximumObjectSizeInQueue()Michael Vogt
Git-Dch: ignore
2014-10-08Fix http pipeline messup detectionMichael Vogt
The Maximum-Size protection breaks the http pipeline reorder code because it relies on that the object got fetched entirely so that it can compare the hash of the downloaded data. So instead of stopping when the Maximum-Size of the expected item is reached we only stop when the maximum size of the biggest item in the queue is reached. This way the pipeline reoder code keeps working.

When we do a ReverifyAfterIMS() we use the copy: method to verify the hashes again. If the user uses -o Dir=./something/relative this fails because we use the URI class in copy.cc that strips away the leading relative part. By not using URI this is fixed. Closes: #762160

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. Closes: #759264
