[pacman-dev] [PATCH 1/3] alpm: add ALPM_TRANS_FLAG_NOKEEP
by morganamilo 25 Jun '22

25 Jun '22

this flag prevents backup files from being kept on package installation. This is useful for resetting a package's config files back to their original state. Implements FS#59908 although with it's own flag name instead of reusing nosave. This allows nokeep to optionally create a pacnew that you can then choose to disable by also setting nosave. --- I actually very dislike NOKEEP but it was the best I could come up with I would have prefered overwrite or nosave but they are taken. Better names are welcome. --- lib/libalpm/alpm.h | 3 ++- lib/libalpm/remove.c | 4 +++- 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/libalpm/alpm.h b/lib/libalpm/alpm.h index 8d8fe243..c6048b63 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/alpm.h +++ b/lib/libalpm/alpm.h @@ -2704,7 +2704,8 @@ int alpm_pkg_mtree_close(const alpm_pkg_t *pkg, struct archive *archive); typedef enum _alpm_transflag_t { /** Ignore dependency checks. */ ALPM_TRANS_FLAG_NODEPS = 1, - /* (1 << 1) flag can go here */ + /** Don't keep backup files when installing packages. */ + ALPM_TRANS_FLAG_NOKEEP = (1 << 1), /** Delete files even if they are tagged as backup. */ ALPM_TRANS_FLAG_NOSAVE = (1 << 2), /** Ignore version numbers when checking dependencies. */ diff --git a/lib/libalpm/remove.c b/lib/libalpm/remove.c index de39724a..233fff0c 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/remove.c +++ b/lib/libalpm/remove.c @@ -575,7 +575,9 @@ static int should_skip_file(alpm_handle_t *handle, { return _alpm_fnmatch_patterns(handle->noupgrade, path) == 0 || alpm_list_find_str(handle->trans->skip_remove, path) - || (newpkg && _alpm_needbackup(path, newpkg) + || (!(handle->trans->flags & ALPM_TRANS_FLAG_NOKEEP) + && newpkg + && _alpm_needbackup(path, newpkg) && alpm_filelist_contains(alpm_pkg_get_files(newpkg), path)); } -- 2.33.0

PKGBUILD-vcs.proto - prepare before pkgver?
by Darren Ng 12 Oct '21

Hi. prepare()[1] runs before pkgver()[2]. In PKGBUILD-vcs.proto[3], why put prepare() after pkgver()? Got nothing from my poor google-fu[4]. --- [1] https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/blob/a33cdac10bf1a68279ea1b9ba… [2] https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/blob/a33cdac10bf1a68279ea1b9ba… [3] https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/blob/edce7555a6b7410d1a4da6d27… [4] https://www.google.com/search?q=site:lists.archlinux.org+pkgver+before+prep… https://www.google.com/search?q=site:lists.archlinux.org+prepare+before+pkg…

[pacman-dev] [PATCH] Add optional sandboxing when downloading files
by Remi Gacogne 11 Oct '21

11 Oct '21

[re-sending because my initial e-mail was rejected by spam filters, sorry!] Hi all, I would like to get some feedback on a optional sandboxing feature I would like to implement in pacman. The gist of it is to use a separate process for some sensitive operations, like downloading files, and to restrict the privileges of that process to reduce the risk of an exploitable bug turning into a code execution with full root privileges. I'm not too worried about the pacman code itself, but downloading files over the internet involves parsing HTTP payloads, as well as parsing X.509 certificates and doing cryptographic operations when HTTPS is used, which is more error-prone. For what it's worth, Debian's APT has similar options hidden behind the APT::Sandbox::Seccomp and APT::Sandbox::User parameters. The attached patch is clearly not in a finished state, but provides more details about the kind of changes needed to support this new feature. In a nutshell, what it currently does is that if the UseSandbox option is not set nothing changes. Otherwise internal and external downloads trigger the spawning of a new process, via fork(), whose result is communicated to the main process via a pipe, as is already done today for external downloads. Then: - If available, PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS is called to ensure that the downloader will not be able to gain new privileges in the future, for example by executing a set-uid program. - If pacman has been built with libseccomp support and the kernel supports it, a list of system calls that are clearly of no use to a regular process downloading files is denied via a seccomp filter. That list is currently hard-coded but it would make more sense to make it configurable. - If the SandboxUser option is set to a valid user, the downloader process switches to that user via setgid, setgroups and setuid, dropping root privileges. This part requires making the download folder owned by that user. - If pacman has been built with libcap support and the downloader process still has privileged capabilities at this point, these are dropped. - If pacman has been built with landlock support (requires an updated linux-api-headers, >= 5.13) and the kernel supports it, the whole filesystem is set read-only with the exception of /tmp and DBPath. The list of writable paths is currently hard-coded but it would make sense to make it configurable as well. Any feedback will be welcome. Please be aware that I tried to keep the new code in line with the coding style and contributing guidelines but I'm not familiar with pacman's source code so I'm sure I did not do everything the right way, and that this code can be improved. What I would like to know first is whether there is any interest in that feature, then to get feedback about the "big picture" part of the design. If there is indeed interest and my approach is somewhat sane, then I can work on making the code less ugly, write the much needed documentation for the new feature and related options, and improve the logging of errors. Thanks!

Why? If your reasoning is just that -1 is a better error value, we use 1 in lots of other places like I said and I don't want to change that one at a time. $ grep 'return 1;' lib/libalpm/*.c src/*/*.c | wc -l [0][1016] 132

[pacman-dev] Display orphaned dependecy loop in -Qdt
by Shironeko 06 Oct '21

06 Oct '21

Hi, When I want to try something out, I often install packages with -- asdeps, and so I can easily uninstall all my changes after I'm done. Which let me to the finding that lots of packages on my systems are actually orphans eventhough they don't show up in -Qdt. This seems to be happening because of dependency loops, example includes bemenu and bemenu-wayland, xdg-desktop-portal and xdg-desktop- portal-wlr and so on. I understand that by the letter -Qdt is doing what it's supposed to, but everywhere I look it is suggested as the way to find orphans, which is incorrect. Perhaps there should be another flag, or the existing flag can be changed so this issue is resolved? An hacky solution I found in the BBS is below, which might be useful for tests. pacman -Qq | sort -u | comm -23 - <(pacman -Qeq | xargs -I PKG -P $(nproc) pactree -lu PKG | sort -u) Regards, Shironeko

[PATCH] "pacman -Q --changelog": fix writing uninit'd mem
by Carlo Teubner 05 Oct '21

05 Oct '21

Previously, when printing a package changelog to stdout, we would write chunks of data that were not necessarily nul-terminated to stdout using a function (fputs) which requires the input string to be nul-terminated. On my system, this would result in occasional garbage characters showing up in the "pacman -Qc" output. Fix this by never nul-terminating the chunk, and using the fwrite() function which takes an explicit input size and does not require a nul-terminated string.
