2008-10-12libalpm: handle syscall interruption correctlyDan McGee
It is possible to throw EINTR from a system call such as open(), close(), or waitpid() if custom signal handlers are set up and they are not initialized with the SA_RESTART flag. This was noticed by Andreas Radke when ^C (SIGINT) was given during the call to waitpid(), causing it to throw the EINTR error and we could not accommodate it. Simply wrap these calls in a simple loop that allows us to retry the call if interrupted. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2008-07-15_alpm_db_add_pkgincache reworkNagy Gabor
Commit 8240da6cb3ff95ad480efe3e1876104024398fae broke some alpm hierarchy and introduced a new memleak (trans->packages was never freed in case of add transaction, even if the transaction wasn't committed), so it is reverted now. We follow a different approach to reduce memory usage: _alpm_db_add_pkgincache doesn't duplicate the whole package before adding it to the cache, only the package name and version (INFRQ_BASE). This method needs very small extra memory (compared to the reverted method), and after transaction commit we use less memory than before (since the big 'files' fields are not copied to cache), this is useful in GUIs. Note: The old add_pkgincache was a bit broken, since pkg->origin wasn't filled in correctly.

2008-06-15Use access() instead of stat() when possibleDan McGee
We were using the stat() system call in quite a few places when we didn't actually need anything the stat struct returned- we were simply checking for file existence. access() will be more efficient in those cases.

2008-03-10Remove trans->targetsNagy Gabor
Its implementation was quite broken: * add_loadtarget() might have silently filtered out some targets when replacing an older version. * This was used in sync.c to determine whether a target is implicit or not, which is incorrect behavior. Before this patch we silently removed user confirmed replacements; now we always warn on a replacement. * remove001.py behavior was quite odd in adding same target 5 times to the target list, we can change this behavior to be a failure.

2007-12-10popen does NOT require /bin/sh in a subchrootAaron Griffin
I appears that when chrooted, the /bin/sh used by popen is that of the parent process. This is true until the process forks once chrooted, which we do not want to do. As such, this actually makes things nicer. We don't need a /bin/sh in a chroot to run install scriptlets, and don't need to check for it in the root directory Signed-off-by: Aaron Griffin <aaronmgriffin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2007-11-21Remove duplicated get_upgrades function, use sysupgrade instead.Chantry Xavier
The alpm_get_upgrades was exactly the same as find_replacements + _alpm_sync_sysupgrade, except that it automatically made the eventual replacements, without asking the user : Replace %s with %s/%s? [Y/n] The replace question, asked in find_replacements. can now be skipped by using a NULL trans argument, so that we get the same behavior as with alpm_get_upgrades. So alpm_db_get_upgrades() can now be replaced by alpm_sync_sysupgrade(db_local, syncdbs). Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

2007-11-14Remove REQUIREDBY usage from libalpmDan McGee
Instead of using the often-busted REQUIREDBY entries in the pacman database, compute them each time they are required. This should help many things: 1. Simplify the codebase 2. Prevent future database corruption 3. Ensure when we do use requiredby, it is always correct 4. Shrink the pmpkg_t memory overhead Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>

I broke scriptlet logging with ad691001e20272b794d2ed574b556f520e3555c0. Readd more or less what was there before, although it still needs a lot of work including hopefully rewriting it to a new event subsystem and having it log to a seperate file. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-10-29libalpm: introduce MALLOC and CALLOC macrosDan McGee
These macros take the place of the common 4 or 5 line blocks of code we had in most places that called malloc or calloc. This should reduce some code duplication and make memory allocation more standard in libalpm. Highlights: * Note that the MALLOC macro actually uses calloc, this is just for safety so that memory is initialized to 0. This can be easily changed in one place. * One malloc call was completely eliminated- it made more sense to do it on the stack. * The use of RET_ERR in public functions (mainly the alpm_*_new functions) was standardized, this makes sense so pm_errno is set.

2007-10-14libalpm/trans.c : fix a recently introduced breakage in scriptlets handling.Chantry Xavier
Commit 4853a4aad97fe36f9237ffb7356201adab507a1c used the tmpdir variable for checking the existence of /bin/sh, without resetting it. This caused /bin/sh to be deleted during the cleanup part, as soon as a scriptlet other than pre_upgrade or pre_install was executed. For example, on the first post_upgrade during a -Su. I introduced two variables : clean_tmpdir and restore_cwd, for deciding what should be done in the cleanup part. Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com>
2007-10-14libalpm/trans.c : remove the DBPath <-> RootDir dependence in runscriptlet.Chantry Xavier
This code assumed that DBPath was under RootDir, while this is not necessarily the case : pacman doesn't enforce anymore than DBPath is under RootDir. So now, all scriptlets will be put somewhere in RootDir/tmp/, so that when it chroots in RootDir, the scriptlets are still available inside the chroot. This also removes the need of normalizing both dbpath and rootdir, in order to do computation on the paths. Signed-off-by: Chantry Xavier <shiningxc@gmail.com>

2007-09-16trans.c : reworking of transaction interruptionsChantry Xavier
My two previous hacks related to this part (8038190c7c4786e1c49494eea1b40cdddcbd5136 and b15a5194d1a8485a2769560e49e6ff03e1862533) were caused by the lack of understanding of a feature introduced a while ago: Better control over CTRL-C interruptions -- do not leave the DB in an inconsistent state (54008798efcc9646f622f6b052ecd83281d57cda). Now I have been looking at this commit, and the added feature is indeed interesting. The main problem I had with it is that it does a rather unusual use of alpm_trans_release, which caused a few problems that I tried to fix in a weird way. I think these problems were caused by the fact that there weren't any difference between "interrupt transaction" and "release a transaction which failed" actions from the alpm_trans_release POV. So I decided to add a new function instead, alpm_trans_interrupt, which is called on Ctrl+C, and which only sets trans->state to STATE_INTERRUPTED so that remove_commit and add_commit can exit cleanly at a safe moment. This allowed me to revert my two previous hacks as well. Also ensure we handle SIGINT correctly in all cases- if a transaction is not ongoing, then we can free the transaction and exit quickly.

2007-08-23libalpm: add newlines to all strings passed to log callbackDan McGee

2007-08-21Post trial install changes, round oneDan McGee
A bunch of changes related to my first "real" install of pacman-git into /usr/local and trying to use it. * Shift some uses of free -> FREE in libalpm. * Move stat and sanity checks of config paths into libalpm from the config and argument parsing in pacman.c. * Fix issue where dbpath still was not defined early enough due to its requirement for being used in alpm_db_register. This should be rewritten so it doesn't have this dependency, but this will work for now. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
2007-08-20libalpm/add.c,trans.c : cleanup of requiredby handling.Nagy Gabor
This patch cleans up and fix the _alpm_trans_update_depends function and ensure that all requiredby fields are filled in case of multiple satisfiers (previously, the handling of mutliple satisfiers in that function was inconsistent). This makes a special case handling of requiredby in commit_single_pkg() obsolete, and so allows cleaning that code as well. Also fixed upgrade056 pactest because : 1) the requiredby fields were wrong, and this wouldn't happen with the fixed _alpm_trans_update_depends(). 2) this is a very unusual case anyway (and handling all corner cases combined to a broken database seems nearly impossible to achieve).
