2017-07-05makechrootpkg, arch-nspawn: Force-enable local '/repo/' repository.Luke Shumaker
The change in arch-nspawn is subtle: This was the source of "infamous" "it fails every other time" bug that took me over a year to solve. <https://labs.parabola.nu/issues/435> By having a repository of local packages (rather than simply running `pacman -U`), we are inviting pacman to cache them in `/var/cache/pacman/pkg`. Besides being needless disk writes, this actually causes a real issue. If the package gets rebuilt, pacman will balk, as the file no longer matches the cached signature. So, how do we prevent pacman from caching these local packages? Simple: include the directory they are already in in the pacman.conf:CacheDir list. This will prevent pacman from copying the files to one of the other cache directories.
2017-07-05arch-nspawn: add a table of CARCH/setarch overridesLuke Shumaker
The table is just armv7h->armv7l for now.
2017-07-05arch-nspawn: Message style: two spaces after a periodLuke Shumaker
This affects both the usage() text, and the error message if the `/.arch-chroot` version doesn't match. The latter is the one that I really care about, and motivates this change. On Parabola, the `arch-nspawn` program isn't in PATH, it's somewhere under `/usr/lib/`, and gets called as a helper to user-facing programs; and the error message is displayed directly to the user. These programs consistently put two spaces after a period when printing a message to the terminal.
2017-07-05Add `# shellcheck` directives to quiet shellcheck, add PKGBUILD.protoLuke Shumaker
The added PKGBUILD.proto file is so that shellcheck can know know what to expect that a PKGBUILD sets.
2017-07-05Quote strings that shellcheck warns about.Luke Shumaker
These changes are all strictly "slap some double-quotes in there". Anything more than that is not included in this commit.
2017-07-05Make purely stylistic changes to make shellcheck happier.Luke Shumaker
These are purely stylistic changes that make shellcheck complain less. This does NOT include things like quoting currently unquoted variables.
2017-04-05mkarchroot, arch-nspawn: Add an `-s` flag to inhibit `setarch`.Luke Shumaker
This allows us to run an ARM chroot on an x86 box; as the binfmt runner will set the architecture for us, and the x86 `/usr/bin/setarch` program won't know about the ARM architecture string.
2017-04-05mkarchroot, arch-nspawn: Add an `-f` flag to add files to copy.Luke Shumaker
This allows us to copy in files like `qemu-arm-static`, which is necessary for running an ARM chroot on an x86 box.
2017-04-05Avoid using string interpolation; use printf format strings instead.Luke Shumaker
This involves extending the signature of lib/common.sh's `stat_busy()`, `lock()`, and `slock()`. The `mesg=$1; shift` in stat_busy even suggests that this is what was originally intended from it.
2017-04-05Add a "License:" tag to all code files.Luke Shumaker
In cases where there is no license specified, the file is tagged as "License: Unspecified". Obviously, that is not ideal, but it highlights the fact, and I hope that it encourages whoever has the authority to specify the license to do so. On that note, to anyone who may have the authority to specify the license of files in devtools: the current licence of many files is GPLv2 with no option for later versions; I impore you to re-license them to have the "or any later version" option.
2017-03-07lib/archroot.sh: Simplify check_rootJan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
Move the function and save the orig_argv right along it.
2017-03-07lib/archroot.sh: Move CHROOT_VERSION to a common fileJan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
2017-02-17mkarchroot: Set LANG=en_US.UTF-8Jan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
In order to have an UTF-8 locale in the build root. This is something normally set on real machines but is not set from our chroots. Meson, for example, loudly complains when the locale charset is not UTF-8. I'd like to have C.UTF-8, as most other distributions do. Unfortunately, it's not part of vanilla glibc; en_US.UTF-8 will have to do. mkarchroot already creates roots with both en_US.UTF-8 and de_DE.UTF-8, the latter because builds of gcc (perhaps used to) require it. Bump the CHROOT_VERSION due to the setting change.
2016-05-28arch-nspawn: Work around pacman master returning file-URLs from the cacheJan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
2015-11-29arch-nspawn: preserve systemd-nspawn's stderrEvangelos Foutras
It is passed down to the container when stdin/stdout is not a tty; this is the case when archbuild's output is redirected to a pipe or file.
2014-10-19save and reuse original argv when auto-elevatingDave Reisner
Fixes FS#42277.
2014-09-22arch-nspawn: Fix a grammar mistake (a/an) in an error message.Luke Shumaker
2014-09-22nspawn: skip machine registrationDave Reisner
No need to do this since we don't run an init system in the build root.
2014-05-10Switch to root when started as regular userSébastien Luttringer
In collaborative builder machine, these scripts are often allowed to become root via sudo. This patch avoid to prefix them by sudo each time or call su. Signed-off-by: Pierre Schmitz <pierre@archlinux.de>
2013-08-18arch-nspawn: allow oddly named directoriesDave Reisner
This fixes various errors one might encounter when trying to use a build root or cachedir with whitespace in it. Note that the cachedir fix is not a complete one, as pacman's output is unreliable (and not meant for parsing here).

2013-08-18arch-nspawn: avoid escaping mount_argsDave Reisner
eval is no longer involved in the execution of systemd-nspawn, so we no longer need a layer of escaping on the arguments. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Pierre Schmitz <pierre@archlinux.de>
2013-08-08avoid injecting code into the format stringDave Reisner
Now that die() properly forwards arguments to error(), we can expect that the first arg is a format string and not the entirety of the output. Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Pierre Schmitz <pierre@archlinux.de>
2013-08-08arch-nspawn: remove leading - from the machine name/hostnameFlorian Pritz

2013-05-11arch-nspawn: Quiet systemd-nspawn againJan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
systemd-nspawn always outputs some debug messages over stderr. Both stdout and stderr from inside the chroot are sent through a pty to stdout.
2013-05-06arch-nspawn: setarch to CARCHJan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
Allows calling makechrootpkg without worrying about the architecture
2013-05-03arch-nspawn: Set machine nameJan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
Recent changes to systemd-nspawn have it take the machine name from the chroot dir name, which isn't unique enough for our setup.
2013-05-02mkarchroot: Refactor chroot running into a new scriptJan Alexander Steffens (heftig)
Separates the two features of mkarchroot. Provides users of the new arch-nspawn with the full feature set of systemd-nspawn. For example, this can be used to bind custom directories into the chroot.
