Again, consistency is the main sellingpoint here, but this way it is now
also easier to explain that some files move through different stages and
lines are printed for them hence multiple times: That is a bit hard to
believe if the number is changing all the time, but now that it keeps
consistent.

All other methods call it, so they should follow along even if the work
they do afterwards is hardly breathtaking and usually results in a
URIDone pretty soon, but the acquire system tells the individual item
about this via a virtual method call, so even through none of our
existing items contains any critical code in these, maybe one day they
might. Consistency at least once…
Which is also why this has a good sideeffect: file: and cdrom: requests
appear now in the 'apt-get update' output. Finally - it never made sense
to hide them for me. Okay, I guess it made before the new hit behavior,
but now that you can actually see the difference in an update it makes
sense to see if a file: repository changed or not as well.

This is an unlikely event for indexes and co, but it can happen quiet
easily e.g. for changelogs where you want to get the changelogs for
multiple binary package(version)s which happen to all be built from a
single source.
The interesting part is that the Acquire system actually detected this
already and set the item requesting the URI again to StatDone - expect
that this is hardly sufficient: an Item must be Complete=true as well
to be considered truely done and that is only the tip of the ::Done
handling iceberg. So instead of this StatDone hack we allow QItems to be
owned by multiple items and notify all owners about everything now,
so that for the point of each item they got it downloaded just for them.

Provided is a specialized acquire item which given a version can figure
out the correct URI to try by itself and if not provides an error
message alongside with static methods to get just the URI it would try
to download if it should just be displayed or similar such.
The URI is constructed as follows:
Release files can provide an URI template in the "Changelogs" field,
otherwise we lookup a configuration item based on the "Label" or
"Origin" of the Release file to get a (hopefully known) default value
for now. This template should contain the string CHANGEPATH which is
replaced with the information about the version we want the changelog
for (e.g. main/a/apt/apt_1.1). This middleway was choosen as this path
part was consistent over the three known implementations (+1 defunct),
while the rest of the URI varies widely between them.
The benefit of this construct is that it is now easy to get changelogs
for Debian packages on Ubuntu and vice versa – even at the moment where
the Changelogs field is present nowhere. Strictly better than what
apt-get had before as it would even fail to get changelogs from
security… Now it will notice that security identifies as Origin: Debian
and pick this setting (assuming again that no Changelogs field exists).
If on the other hand security would ship its changelogs in a different
location we could set it via the Label option overruling Origin.

Selecting targets based on the Release they belong to isn't to
unrealistic. In fact, it is assumed to be the most used case so it is
made the default especially as this allows to bundle another thing we
have to be careful with: Filenames and only showing targets we have
acquired.

We used to read the Release file for each Packages file and store the
data in the PackageFile struct even through potentially many Packages
(and Translation-*) files could use the same data. The point of the
exercise isn't the duplicated data through. Having the Release files as
first-class citizens in the Cache allows us to properly track their
state as well as allows us to use the information also for files which
aren't in the cache, but where we know to which Release file they
belong (Sources are an example for this).
This modifies the pkgCache structs, especially the PackagesFile struct
which depending on how libapt users access the data in these structs can
mean huge breakage or no visible change. As a single data point:
aptitude seems to be fine with this. Even if there is breakage it is
trivial to fix in a backportable way while avoiding breakage for
everyone would be a huge pain for us.
Note that not all PackageFile structs have a corresponding ReleaseFile.
In particular the dpkg/status file as well as *.deb files have not. As
these have only a Archive property need, the Component property takes
over this duty and the ReleaseFile remains zero. This is also the reason
why it isn't needed nor particularily recommended to change from
PackagesFile to ReleaseFile blindly. Sticking with the earlier is
usually the better option.

Downloading additional files is only half the job. We still need a way
to allow external tools to know where the files are they requested for
download given that we don't want them to choose their own location.
'apt-get files' is our answer to this showing by default in a deb822
format information about each IndexTarget with the potential to filter
the records based on lines and an option to change the output format.
The command serves also as an example on how to get to this information
via libapt.

It is a rather strange sight that index items use SiteOnly which strips
the Path, while e.g. deb files are downloaded with NoUserPassword which
does not. Important to note here is that for the file transport Path is
pretty important as there is no Host which would be displayed by Site,
which always resulted in "interesting" unspecific errors for "file:".
Adding a 'middle' ground between the two which does show the Path but
potentially modifies it (it strips a pending / at the end if existing)
solves this "file:" issue, syncs the output and in the end helps to
identify which file is meant exactly in progress output and co as a
single site can have multiple repositories in different paths.

We have two places in the code which need to iterate over targets and do

for download and the second instance pepares certain targets for

First pass at making the acquire system capable of downloading files
based on configuration rather than hardcoded entries. It is now possible
to instruct 'deb' and 'deb-src' sources.list lines to download more than
just Packages/Translation-* and Sources files. Details on how to do that
can be found in the included documentation file.

If we have a file on disk and the hashes are the same in the new Release
file and the old one we have on disk we know that if we ask the server
for the file, we will at best get an IMS hit – at worse the server
doesn't support this and sends us the (unchanged) file and we have to
run all our checks on it again for nothing. So, we can save ourselves
(and the servers) some unneeded requests if we figure this out on our
own.

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.

Having every item having its own code to verify the file(s) it handles
is an errorprune process and easy to break, especially if items move
through various stages (download, uncompress, patching, …). With a giant
rework we centralize (most of) the verification to have a better
enforcement rate and (hopefully) less chance for bugs, but it breaks the
ABI bigtime in exchange – and as we break it anyway, it is broken even
harder.
It shouldn't effect most frontends as they don't deal with the acquire
system at all or implement their own items, but some do and will need to
be patched (might be an opportunity to use apt on-board material).
The theory is simple: Items implement methods to decide if hashes need to
be checked (in this stage) and to return the expected hashes for this
item (in this stage). The verification itself is done in worker message
passing which has the benefit that a hashsum error is now a proper error
for the acquire system rather than a Done() which is later revised to a
Failed().

If we e.g. fail on hash verification for Packages.xz its highly unlikely
that it will be any better with Packages.gz, so we just waste download
bandwidth and time. It also causes us always to fallback to the
uncompressed Packages file for which the error will finally be reported,
which in turn confuses users as the file usually doesn't exist on the
mirrors, so a bug in apt is suspected for even trying it…

The fix for #777760 causes packages of foreign (and the native)
architectures, to be created correctly, but invalidates (like the
previously existing, but policy-forbidden architecture-less packages
we had to support for some upgrade scenarios) the assumption that the
first (and only) package in the cache for a single architecture system
must be the package for the native architecture (as, where should the
other architectures come from, right? Wrong.).
Depending on the order of parsing sources more or less packages can be
effected by this. The effects are strange (for apt it mostly effects
simulation/debug output, but also apt-mark on these specific packages),
which complicates debugging, but relatively harmless if understood as
most actions do not need direct named access to packages.
The problem is fixed by removing the single-arch special casing in the
paths who had them (Cache.FindPkg), so they use the same code as
multi-arch systems, which use them as a wrapper for Grp.FindPkg.
Note that single-arch system code was using Grp.FindPkg before as well
if a Grp structure was handily available, so we don't introduce new
untested code here: We remove more brittle special cases which are less
tested instead (this was planed to be done for Stretch anyhow).
Note further that the method with the assumption itself isn't fixed. As
it is a private method I opted for declaring it deprecated instead and
remove all its call positions. As it is private no-one can call this
method legally (thanks to how c++ works by default its still an exported
symbol through) and fixing it basically means reimplementing code we
already have in Grp.FindPkg.
Removing rather than fixing seems hence like a good solution.

The apt http code parses Content-Length and Content-Range. For
both requests the variable "Size" is used and the semantic for
this Size is the total file size. However Content-Length is not
the entire file size for partital file requests. For servers that
send the Content-Range header first and then the Content-Length
header this can lead to globbing of Size so that its less than
the real file size. This may lead to a subsequent passing of a
negative number into the CircleBuf which leads to a endless
loop that writes data.
Thanks to Anton Blanchard for the analysis and initial patch.

Valid-Until protects us from long-living downgrade attacks, but not all
repositories have it and an attacker could still use older but still
valid files to downgrade us. While this makes it sounds like a security
improvement now, its a bit theoretical at best as an attacker with
capabilities to pull this off could just as well always keep us days
(but in the valid period) behind and always knows which state we have,
as we tell him with the If-Modified-Since header. This is also why this
is 'silently' ignored and treated as an IMSHit rather than screamed at
the user as this can at best be an annoyance for attackers.
An error here would 'regularily' be encountered by users by out-of-sync
mirrors serving a single run (e.g. load balancer) or in two consecutive
runs on the other hand, so it would just help teaching people ignore it.
That said, most of the code churn is caused by enforcing this additional
requirement. Crisscross from InRelease to Release.gpg is e.g. very
unlikely in practice, but if we would ignore it an attacker could
sidestep it this way.

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.

While it is mostly busywork to rewrite all instances it actually fixes
bugs as the data storage used by the new method is std::string rather
than a char*, the later mostly created by c_str() from a std::string
which the caller has to ensure keeps in scope – something apt-ftparchive
actually didn't ensure and relied on copy-on-write behavior instead
which c++11 forbids and hence the new default gcc abi doesn't use it.

TFRewrite is okay, but it has obscure limitations (256 Tags), even more
obscure bugs (order for renames is defined by the old name) and the
interface is very c-style encouraging bad usage like we do it in
apt-ftparchive passing massive amounts of c_str() from std::string in.
The old-style is marked as deprecated accordingly. The next commit will
fix all places in the apt code to not use the old-style anymore.

If the pin for a generic pin is 0, it get a value by strange looking
rules, if the pin is specific the rules are at least not strange, but
the value 989 is a magic number without any direct meaning… but both
never happens in practice as the parsing skips such entries with a
warning, so there always is a priority != 0 and the code therefore never
used.

The documentation says this, but the code only agreed while evaluating
specific packages, but not generics. These needed a pin above 1000 to
have the same effect.
The code causing this makes references to a 'second pesduo status file',
but nowhere is explained what this might stand for and/or what it was,
so we do the only reasonable thing: Remove all references and do as
documented.

Especially pdiff-enhanced downloads have the tendency to fail for
various reasons from which we can recover and even a successful download
used to leave the old unpatched index in partial/.
By adding a new method responsible for making the transaction of an
individual file happen we can at specialisations especially for abort
cases to deal with the cleanup.
This also helps in keeping the compressed indexes around if another
index failed instead of keeping the decompressed files, which we
wouldn't pick up in the next call.

On single-arch the parsing was creating groupnames like 'apt:amd64' even
through it should be 'apt' and a package in it belonging to architecture
amd64. The result for foreign architectures was as expected: The
dependency isn't satisfiable, but for native architecture it means the
wrong package (ala apt:amd64:amd64) is linked so this is also not
satisfiable, which is very much not expected.
No longer excluding single-arch from this codepath allows the generation
of the correct links, which still link to non-exisiting packages for
foreign dependencies, but natives link to the expected native package
just as if no architecture was given.
For negative arch-specific dependencies ala Conflicts this matter was
worse as apt will believe there isn't a Conflict to resolve, tricking it
into calculating a solution dpkg will refuse.
Architecture specific positive dependencies are rare in jessie – the
only one in amd64 main is foreign –, negative dependencies do not even
exist. Neither class has a native specimen, so no package in jessie is
effected by this bug, but it might be interesting for stretch upgrades.
This also means the regression potential is very low.

gnupg is case-insensitive about keyids, so back then apt-key called it
directly any keyid was accepted, but now that we work more with the
keyid ourself we regressed to require uppercase keyids by accident.
This is also inconsistent with other apt-key commands which still use
gnupg directly. A single case-insensitive grep and we are fine again.

If we get a IMSHit for the Transaction-Manager (= the InRelease file or
as its still supported fallback Release + Release.gpg combo) we can
assume that every file we would queue based on this manager, but already
have locally is current and hence would get an IMSHit, too. We therefore
save us and the server the trouble and skip the queuing in this case.
Beside speeding up repetative executions of 'apt-get update' this way we
also avoid hitting hashsum errors if the indexes are in fact already
updated, but the Release file isn't yet as it is the case on well
behaving mirrors as Release files is updated last.
The implementation is a bit harder than the theory makes it sound as we
still have to keep reverifying the Release files (e.g. to detect now expired
once to avoid an attacker being able to silently stale us) and have to
handle cases in which the Release file hits, but some indexes aren't
present (e.g. user added a new foreign architecture).

Its a bit unpredictable which permissons and owners we will encounter on

mess.

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.

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.

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.

calling them if nocheck is given… but this fails anyhow as we declared a
hard-dependency on it. Demoting the error to a warning in configuration
and adding a test in the 'make test' path with a friendly message allows
nocheck to be useful again.
(Running unit tests is fully encouraged of course, but bootstrappers and
co do not need to be burdened with this stuff)

In #780028 we were discussing how the or-group order should be more
important than keep-back decisions of 'upgrade'. We have this behaviour,
but to ensure it stays this way lets add a test for it.

This isn't testing much of the 'complex' parts,
but its better than nothing for now.

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.

As part of the “reproducible builds” effort [1], we have noticed that
apt could not be built reproducibly.
One issue is that it uses the __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros of the C
preprocessor to display the time of build in the online help. We believe
this information not to be really useful to users as they can always
look at the package data and metadata to figure it out.
The attached patch simply removes this information. All
non-documentation packages can then be built reproducibly with our
current experimental framework.
[David: changed the string slightly to be untranslateable as well]
