* _EbuildFetcherProcess: Handle SIGTERMZac Medico2024-08-031-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix _EbuildFetcherProcess to handle SIGTERM, so that FETCHCOMMAND processes will not be left running in the background: * Convert the fetch function to an async_fetch coroutine function so that it can use asyncio.CancelledError handlers to terminate running processes. * Use multiprocessing.active_children() to detect and terminate any processes that asyncio.CancelledError handlers did not have an opportunity to terminate because the exception arrived too soon after fork/spawn. * Add unit test to verify that a child process is correctly killed when EbuildFetcher is cancelled, with short timeout in case it takes some time for the process to disappear.

* JobStatusDisplay: show length of merge-wait queueFlorian Schmaus2024-08-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Since FEATURES=merge-wait is now the default, the length of the merge-wait queue becomes more relevant. Hence show it as part of portage's job status display.

* make.globals: add bcachefs_effective.* and bcachefs.* to PORTAGE_XATTR_EXCLUDEFlorian Schmaus2024-07-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Just like btrfs the bcachefs filesystem makes heaviy use of xattrs. In my case emerge --config gentoo-kernel failed with install-xattr: setxattr() failed: Operation not supported A strace revealed setxattr("/boot/efi/8410476acd4b1e12c678fc815c18f551/6.9.5-gentoo-dist/linux", "bcachefs_effective.background_co"..., "zstd", 4, 0) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not supported) and indeed, the source file to the install operation was under /usr/src which had background compression enabled. As a result, install-xattr tried to copy the attribute over to the destination file and failed.

* config: Allow a repository to be configured using one of its aliasesJames Le Cuirot2024-07-101-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the `[name]` in repos.conf can only match the primary name. This is inconvenient if a repository wants to change its name without breaking existing configurations. This raises the question of whether to then use the primary name or the alias in the UI and in the vardb. I went with the primary name because this is presumably the name that the repository actually wants you to use. If the configured name matches neither the primary name nor an alias, then emaint sync will simply claim that it is not found, but that behaviour is unchanged from before.

* vartree, movefile: Warn when rewriting a symlinkUlrich Müller2024-06-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | See PMS section 13.4.1 (Rewriting): Any absolute symlink whose link starts with D must be rewritten with the leading D removed. The package manager should issue a notice when doing this. Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/934514 Signed-off-by: Ulrich Müller <ulm@gentoo.org>
* bin/ebuild.sh: disable globskipdots too in Bash 5.2Sam James2024-06-131-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | See 69cac73ba0a7bcf2e2cff88c60d389895a550623. globskipdots is a new option in bash-5.2 that is also default-on in that release. The default value is not gated by BASH_COMPAT (see bug #907061), hence we need to disable it for older Bashes to avoid behaviour changes in ebuilds and eclasses.

* emerge: Make --root-deps install build deps to ROOT plus / for all EAPIsJames Le Cuirot2024-06-111-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | Rather than instead of / for EAPI 6 and below. This changes the behaviour, but it is arguably not a breaking change, as no installations are being dropped. The previous behaviour was highly likely to break anyway. Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/435066 Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/portage/pull/1319 Signed-off-by: James Le Cuirot <chewi@gentoo.org>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Drop -Wstringop-overflow, -Wstringop-overread, -Wstringop-truncation, -Waddress, and -Wreturn-local-addr for now because they cause too many FPs. We want only reliable warnings for this Portage QA check as we encourage people to report these upstream.

* emerge: Skip installed packages with emptytree in depgraph selectionGábor Oszkár Dénes2024-02-231-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Running emerge with emptytree tries to find the best match for every atom it needs to install. Sometimes the best matches would be already installed packages (with `operation=nomerge`), but these packages would be silently skipped with full emptytree installation. This change makes sure that emerge attempts to install every package. If the package has unmet requirements, emerge will complain.

* bintree: don't call trust helper unless bindb is writableSam James2024-01-021-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Followup to 6ae45739e208b7a9d59e0b6056be72a5791aae04. My qualm there wrt writable was whether or not doing something which mutated state (and therefore possibly the package list) would be confusing but that doesn't make much sense for a few reasons. Anyway, change the test to be not just for no-pretend, but also whether the bindb is writable too, as pretend is already a proxy for whether we may not have privileges (I can imagine someone possibly having bindb privileges but not /etc/portage/gnupg, so better to just head this off entirely).
