[pacman-dev] [PATCH] Use file locks (flock) to stop multiple pacman instances from running concurrently. This improves the current model by automatically removing locks held by programs has failed to remove the lock, for example at a crash, forced kill or power outage.
by Mattias Andrée 19 Aug '13

19 Aug '13

This allows for further improvement of pacman where shared locks could also be used, in cases there pacman only reads the database and does not edit it. File locks also makes it easy to let pacman wait until the block instance has finished, by just not using the LOCK_NB flag. --- lib/libalpm/be_sync.c | 5 +---- lib/libalpm/handle.c | 26 ++++++++++++++------------ lib/libalpm/handle.h | 2 +- lib/libalpm/trans.c | 7 +------ scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in | 9 +++++---- scripts/pacman-optimize.sh.in | 9 +++++---- 6 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 31 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/libalpm/be_sync.c b/lib/libalpm/be_sync.c index 0b99684..e7c8c4b 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/be_sync.c +++ b/lib/libalpm/be_sync.c @@ -284,10 +284,7 @@ int SYMEXPORT alpm_db_update(int force, alpm_db_t *db) cleanup: - if(_alpm_handle_unlock(handle)) { - _alpm_log(handle, ALPM_LOG_WARNING, _("could not remove lock file %s\n"), - handle->lockfile); - } + _alpm_handle_unlock(handle); free(syncpath); umask(oldmask); return ret; diff --git a/lib/libalpm/handle.c b/lib/libalpm/handle.c index 53c86c5..5d1cfb7 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/handle.c +++ b/lib/libalpm/handle.c @@ -27,6 +27,7 @@ #include <sys/types.h> #include <syslog.h> #include <sys/stat.h> +#include <sys/file.h> #include <fcntl.h> /* libalpm */ @@ -44,6 +45,7 @@ alpm_handle_t *_alpm_handle_new(void) CALLOC(handle, 1, sizeof(alpm_handle_t), return NULL); handle->deltaratio = 0.0; + handle->lckstream = -1; return handle; } @@ -95,7 +97,7 @@ int _alpm_handle_lock(alpm_handle_t *handle) char *dir, *ptr; ASSERT(handle->lockfile != NULL, return -1); - ASSERT(handle->lckstream == NULL, return 0); + ASSERT(handle->lckstream < 0, return 0); /* create the dir of the lockfile first */ dir = strdup(handle->lockfile); @@ -110,14 +112,14 @@ int _alpm_handle_lock(alpm_handle_t *handle) FREE(dir); do { - fd = open(handle->lockfile, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT | O_EXCL, 0000); + fd = open(handle->lockfile, O_WRONLY | O_CREAT); } while(fd == -1 && errno == EINTR); if(fd >= 0) { - FILE *f = fdopen(fd, "w"); - fprintf(f, "%ld\n", (long)getpid()); - fflush(f); fsync(fd); - handle->lckstream = f; + if(flock(fd, LOCK_EX | LOCK_NB) < 0) { + return -1; + } + handle->lckstream = fd; return 0; } return -1; @@ -127,14 +129,14 @@ int _alpm_handle_lock(alpm_handle_t *handle) int _alpm_handle_unlock(alpm_handle_t *handle) { ASSERT(handle->lockfile != NULL, return -1); - ASSERT(handle->lckstream != NULL, return 0); - - fclose(handle->lckstream); - handle->lckstream = NULL; + ASSERT(handle->lckstream >= 0, return 0); - if(unlink(handle->lockfile) && errno != ENOENT) { - return -1; + flock(handle->lckstream, LOCK_UN); + if(flock(handle->lckstream, LOCK_EX | LOCK_NB) == 0) { + unlink(handle->lockfile); + flock(handle->lckstream, LOCK_UN); } + handle->lckstream = NULL; return 0; } diff --git a/lib/libalpm/handle.h b/lib/libalpm/handle.h index 5e84d58..7ca90ff 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/handle.h +++ b/lib/libalpm/handle.h @@ -55,7 +55,7 @@ struct __alpm_handle_t { alpm_db_t *db_local; /* local db pointer */ alpm_list_t *dbs_sync; /* List of (alpm_db_t *) */ FILE *logstream; /* log file stream pointer */ - FILE *lckstream; /* lock file stream pointer if one exists */ + int lckstream; /* lock file file descriptor if one exists */ alpm_trans_t *trans; #ifdef HAVE_LIBCURL diff --git a/lib/libalpm/trans.c b/lib/libalpm/trans.c index 8d4e0e7..122f35b 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/trans.c +++ b/lib/libalpm/trans.c @@ -215,12 +215,7 @@ int SYMEXPORT alpm_trans_release(alpm_handle_t *handle) /* unlock db */ if(!nolock_flag) { - if(_alpm_handle_unlock(handle)) { - _alpm_log(handle, ALPM_LOG_WARNING, _("could not remove lock file %s\n"), - handle->lockfile); - alpm_logaction(handle, ALPM_CALLER_PREFIX, - "warning: could not remove lock file %s\n", handle->lockfile); - } + _alpm_handle_unlock(handle); } return 0; diff --git a/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in b/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in index a1630c5..20cf035 100644 --- a/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in +++ b/scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in @@ -102,12 +102,12 @@ dbroot="${dbroot%/}" # form the path to our lockfile location lockfile="${dbroot}/db.lck" -# make sure pacman isn't running -if [[ -f $lockfile ]]; then +# make sure pacman isn't running and stop other instances for starting +exec 100<>"$lockfile" +if ! flock -x --nonblock 100; then + flock --close 100 die "$(gettext "Pacman lock file was found.

[pacman-dev] [PATCH 0/7] integrate test suite with automake
by Andrew Gregory 18 Aug '13

18 Aug '13

This patchset converts the output of all of our tests to tap [1] and fully integrates them with automake so that tests can be run in parallel with `make check`. The test suite may also be run with other test harnesses such as perl's prove which can do such interesting things as remember which tests failed and run only those on subsequent invocations. The documentation for integrating tests is here [2].

[pacman-dev] Conflict when replacing a folder with subfolders by a file in a package update
by Timothée Ravier 09 Aug '13

09 Aug '13

Hi, Pacman exits with a conflict error if the package updated is replacing a folder with subfolders inside by a single file with the same name. This may be a bug as I don't know any cases where this cloud make sense. But I may be wrong of course. I'll let you decide. Testing was done on fully updated Arch Linux system with the following repositories enabled: kf5, kde-unstable, testing, core, extra, community-testing, community, multilib-testing, multilib. Example PKGBUILDs to reproduce the issue: $ cat PKGBUILD.1 pkgname=testpkg pkgver=1 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Test package" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') license=('GPL') package() { cd "${pkgdir}" mkdir -p usr/test/test } $ cat PKGBUILD.2 pkgname=testpkg pkgver=1 pkgrel=2 pkgdesc="Test package" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') license=('GPL') package() { cd "${pkgdir}" mkdir usr touch usr/test } Pacman output: $ sudo pacman -U testpkg-1-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz loading packages... resolving dependencies... looking for inter-conflicts...

[pacman-dev] [PATCH 0/5] Version the local database
by Allan McRae 09 Aug '13

09 Aug '13

With removing directory symlink support, we need to make an adjustment to the users local database to adjust any path that relied in that "feature". As this is not a readily detectable change, as was the case in our last local database adjustment, we need to add something to track the local database version. The file ".alpm_db_version" is added to the local database root. This file is automatically created whenever the local database directory is absent or empty. This store the current database version as an integer. I have chosen to use the (next) libalpm soname version so it is easy for us to track what versions are needed. Allan McRae (5): Create local database directory if it is missing Add version file when creating local database directory Add version file to empty local database Check the version of the local database during validation Extend database upgrade script to handle alpm db version 9 lib/libalpm/be_local.c | 118 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------- scripts/pacman-db-upgrade.sh.in | 46 ++++++++++++---- test/pacman/pmdb.py | 2 + test/pacman/pmtest.py | 3 + 4 files changed, 121 insertions(+), 48 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.3

[pacman-dev] [PATCH 0/9] extract ini parser from parseconfig
by Andrew Gregory 07 Aug '13

07 Aug '13

This creates a generic ini parser than can be reused for hooks or other configuration files. I took a very different approach from the previous patchset by utilizing a callback that processes the options as the file is parsed. This should have a much lower memory footprint and is closer to how we were already parsing config files. Parsing differences: * Include directives can be outside a section. They can include their own sections so it made little sense to require that they be in one already. * Errors in included files are now fatal. Andrew Gregory (9): conf.c: add parse_options to section_t conf.c: move repo parsing out of _parseconfig conf.c: move directive parsing out of _parseconfig conf.c: move section handling out of _parseconfig conf.c: pass _parse_directive as a callback conf.c: extract ini parsing code to separate files ini.c: move recursion limit to a macro ini.c: reuse line buffer ini.c: make errors in includes fatal src/pacman/Makefile.am | 1 + src/pacman/conf.c | 257 ++++++++++++++----------------------------------- src/pacman/ini.c | 217 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/pacman/ini.h | 30 ++++++ 4 files changed, 319 insertions(+), 186 deletions(-) create mode 100644 src/pacman/ini.c create mode 100644 src/pacman/ini.h -- 1.8.3.3
