Add a tool to verify runtimes against a mtree manifest

Simon McVittie requested to merge wip/smcv/top-level-mtree into main

This is something I've been thinking about adding for a while.


  • tests/valgrind.sh: Don't show reachable objects by default

    There are too many false positives if we do.

  • populate-depot: Only put permissions in mode=, not all of st_mode

    This matches the output of bsdtar (libarchive), for example:

      bsdtar -cf- --format=mtree -C ~/tmp .

    and NetBSD mtree(8) (the mtree-netbsd package in Debian), for example:

      mtree -c -p ~/tmp | mtree -C
  • populate-depot: Write a top-level mtree

    This provides a convenient way to check whether the depot has the contents we believe it should.

  • populate-depot: Avoid excess precision for modification times

  • pv-mtree: Factor out parsing and applying the mtree manifest

    This will allow a similar code path that verifies instead of applying.

  • pv-verify: New utility to verify SteamLinuxRuntime_foo against a mtree

    This will make it easy to verify that SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper and SteamLinuxRuntime_soldier are intact:

      .../SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/pressure-vessel/bin/pv-verify

    and only slightly more difficult to do the same for SLR 1.0:

      .../SteamLinuxRuntime_soldier/pressure-vessel/bin/pv-verify \
      .../SteamLinuxRuntime

    A more explicit version of the first command is:

      .../SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/pressure-vessel/bin/pv-verify \
          --mtree=.../SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/mtree.txt.gz \
          -- \
          .../SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/pressure-vessel

    but the defaults are sensible.

  • tests: Test pv-verify
