2016-04-25use the same redirection mirror for all index filesDavid Kalnischkies
Redirection services like httpredir.debian.org tend to use a set of mirrors from which they pick a mirror at "random" for each requested file, which is usually benefitial for the download of debs, but for the index files this can quickly cause problems (aka hashsum mismatches) if the two (or more) mirrors involved are only slightly out-of-sync. This commit "resolves" this issue by using the mirror we ended up using to get the (signed) Release file directly to get the index files belonging to this Release file instead of asking the redirection service which eliminates the risk of hitting out-of-sync mirrors. As an obvious downside the redirection service can't serve partial mirrors anymore for indexes and the download of indexes indexed in the same Release file can't be done in parallel (from different mirrors). This does not effect the download of non-index files like deb-files as out-of-sync mirrors aren't a huge problem there, so the parallel download outweights a potentially 404 error (also because this causes no errenous downloads while hashsum mismatches download the entire file before finding out that it was pointless). The rational for this is that indexes are relative to the Release file. If we would be talking about a HTML page including images, such a behaviour is obvious and intended – not doing it means in the best case a bunch of "useless" requests which will all be answered with a redirect.
2016-04-25show more details for "Writing more data" errors, tooDavid Kalnischkies
They are the small brothers of the hashsum mismatch, so they deserve a similar treatment even through we have for architectual reasons not a much to display as for hashsum mismatches for now.
2016-04-25show more details for "Hash Sum mismatch" errorsDavid Kalnischkies
Users tend to report these errors with just this error message… not very actionable and hard to figure out if this is a temporary or 'permanent' mirror-sync issue or even the occasional apt bug. Showing the involved hashsums and modification times should help in triaging these kind of bugs – and eventually we will have less of them via by-hash. The subheaders aren't marked for translation for now as they are technical glibberish and probably easier to deal with if not translated. After all, our iconic "Hash Sum mismatch" is translated at least. These additions were proposed in #817240 by Peter Palfrader.
2016-04-25drop empty line from fetch errorDavid Kalnischkies
This is a duplicate of sorts of 0efb29eb36184bbe6de7b1013d1898796d94b171 which is the a lot more frequent case of this error – and also a duplicate of this error message, just without the \n at the end. Git-Dch: Ignore
2016-04-25properly format multiline error messagesDavid Kalnischkies
2016-04-25don't ask server if we have entire file in partial/David Kalnischkies
We have this situation in cases were parts of the transaction are refused (e.g. in a hashsum mismatch) and rerun the update (e.g. in the hope that we get a mirror which is synced this time). Previously we would ask the server with an if-range and in the best case recieve a 416 in response (less featureful server might end up giving us the entire file again or we get the wrong file this time giving us a hashsum mismatch…), which is a waste of time if we know already by checking the hashsums that we got the complete and correct file.
2016-04-25make random acquire queues work less randomDavid Kalnischkies
Queues feeding workers like rred are created in a random pattern to get a few of them to run in parallel – but if we already have an idling queue we don't need to assign it to a (potentially new) random queue as that saves us the (agruably small) overhead of starting up a new queue, avoids adding jobs to an already busy queue while others idle and as a bonus reduces the size of debug logs a bit. We also keep starting new queues now until we reach our limit before we assign work at random to them, which should give us a more effective utilisation overall compared to potentially adding work to busy queues while we haven't reached our queue limit yet.
2016-04-14ensure outdated files are dropped without lists-cleanupDavid Kalnischkies
Tested via (newly) empty index files, but effects also files dropped from the repository or an otherwise changed repository config.
2016-04-14silently skip acquire of empty index filesDavid Kalnischkies
There is just no point in taking the time to acquire empty files – especially as it will be tiny non-empty compressed files usually.
2016-04-14allow uncompressed files to be empty in store againDavid Kalnischkies
With the previous fix for file applied we can again hit repositories which contain uncompressed empty files, which since the introduction of the central store: method wasn't accounted for anymore as we forbid empty compressed files.
2016-04-14fix Alt-Filename handling of file methodDavid Kalnischkies
A silly of-by-one error in the stripping of the extension to check for the uncompressed filename broken in an attempt to support all compressions in commit a09f6eb8fc67cd2d836019f448f18580396185e5. Fixing this highlights also mistakes in the handling of the Alt-Filename in libapt which would cause apt to remove the file from the repository (if root has the needed rights – aka the disk isn't readonly or similar)
2016-04-13webserver: 416 errors aren't closing connectionsDavid Kalnischkies
Breaking here lets our handler die which a client will fix by reconnecting… but that eats time needlessly and is simple the wrong handling, too. Git-Dch: Ignore
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
2016-03-28Allow 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.

2016-03-27test-apt-download-progress: Use a larger file for testingJulian Andres Klode
This should make the test less flaky, as with a small file, we might have already received all the data before trying to apply rate limits which is a constant source of failure on the i386 Ubuntu autopkgtest.
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
2016-03-22handle gpgv's weak-digests ERRSIGDavid Kalnischkies
Our own gpgv method can declare a digest algorithm as untrusted and handles these as worthless signatures. If gpgv comes with inbuilt untrusted (which is called weak in official terminology) which it e.g. does for MD5 in recent versions we should handle it in the same way. To check this we use the most uncommon still fully trusted hash as a configureable one via a hidden config option to toggle through all of the three states a hash can be in.
2016-03-21properly check for "all good sigs are weak"David Kalnischkies
Using erase(pos) is invalid in our case here as pos must be a valid and derefenceable iterator, which isn't the case for an end-iterator (like if we had no good signature). The problem runs deeper still through as VALIDSIG is a keyid while GOODSIG is just a longid so comparing them will always fail. Closes: 818910
2016-03-19tests: reenable basic auth test and add @ in usernameDavid Kalnischkies
On launchpad #1558484 a user reports that @ in the authentication tokens parsing of sources.list isn't working in an older (precise) version. It isn't the recommended way of specifying passwords and co (auth.conf is), but we can at least test for regressions (and in this case test at all… who was that "clever" boy disabling a test with exit……… oh, nevermind.

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
2016-03-17test framework: Pass -n to lsof to speed up finding the https portJulian Andres Klode
There is no point in resolving all addresses to their names, this just seriously slows the setup phase down. So just pass -n to not resolve names anymore. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-03-17test-acquire-same-file-multiple-times: Run failing test up to 10 timesJulian Andres Klode
This should make the test less flaky and hopefully fix the failure on Ubuntu's armhf CI nodes. Gbp-Dch: ignore
2016-03-17Make test-apt-download-progress less flakyJulian Andres Klode
The test is a bit flaky. In order to get it less flaky, reduce the speed in each run. To compensate for issues, start with a higher speed level. Also increase the number of runs to 10. Furthermore, http get the same multiple-run loop, and the log files are changed to indicate the protocol being tested, as it's not obvious which one fails if it fails in quiet mode. Gbp-Dch: ignore
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
2016-03-16Report 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]
2016-03-14test: Move --weak-digest initialization to the right placeJulian Andres Klode

This makes the test suite safe if we ever need to reject SHA1 signatures in an update.
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
2016-03-14flush 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
2016-03-14aptwebserver: fix html validation issuesDavid Kalnischkies
Iceweasel^WFirefox complains about the missing encoding in its console which can be a bit annoying in interactive sessions, so fixing these issues has no effect on apt itself, but on the testers. Git-Dch: Ignore
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.
2016-03-14test: remove SHA1 support testing as unsupportedDavid Kalnischkies
Given that we refuse to use SHA1-only .diff/Indexes no point in shipping and running code which pretends to check support for it which given that all these tests are run 3 times eats a noticeable amount of time. Git-Dch: Ignore

Ensure that .diff/Index files that only contain SHA1 values and no SHA2 values are not used.
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.
2016-03-10Use native architecture instead of amd64 for build-dep-purge testJulian Andres Klode
Using amd64 broke the test case on non-amd64 architectures. Query the native architecture from dpkg and use that instead. The definition of NATIVE is copied from the test test-architecture-specification-parsing.

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
2016-03-06add test for apt-key 0xKEY and use parameter expansionDavid Kalnischkies
Fixed in f7bd44bae0d7cb7f9838490b5eece075da83899e already, but the commit misses the Closes tag and while we are at it we can add a simple regression test and micro-optimize it a bit. Thanks: James McCoy for the suggestion. Closes: 816691
2016-03-06support APT::Get::Build-Dep-Automatic again in build-depDavid Kalnischkies
In a249b3e6fd798935a02b769149c9791a6fa6ef16 I dropped with the manual first resolver step also the support for installing build-deps as automatic in such a way that it behaved like this option was enabled by default. Restoring support for it means that we go back to mark build- dependencies as manually installed again by default and provide this option to keep them as automatically installed.

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.
