Introduce a Deviceinfo class and use it rather than the dictionary. This
gives us sweet sweet autocomplete, and lays the foundation for having a
proper deviceinfo validator in the future.
Additionally, continue refactoring out args...

Cease merging pmbootstrap.cfg into args, implement a Context type to let
us pull globals out of thin air (as an intermediate workaround) and rip
args out of a lot of the codebase.
This is just a first pass, after this we can split all the state that
leaked over into Context into types with narrower scopes (like a
BuildContext(), etc).

We use a custom verbose log level in pmbootstrap, unfortunately it isn't
possible to correctly type this due to some limitations in the logging
library [1], [2].
Given that our usecase is fairly simple, we can just wrap the module
with our own so we only have to tell mypy to ignore the error once
instead of at every callsite.

Introduce a new module: pmb.core to contain explicitly typed pmbootstrap
API. The first component being Suffix and SuffixType. This explicitly
defines what suffixes are possible, future changes should aim to further
constrain this API (e.g. by validating against available device
codenames or architectures for buildroot suffixes).
Additionally, migrate the entire codebase over to using pathlib.Path.
This is a relatively new part of the Python standard library that uses a
more object oriented model for path handling. It also uses strong type
hinting and has other features that make it much cleaner and easier to
work with than pure f-strings. The Chroot class overloads the "/"
operator the same way the Path object does, allowing one to write paths
relative to a given chroot as:
builddir = chroot / "home/pmos/build"
The Chroot class also has a string representation ("native", or
"rootfs_valve-jupiter"), and a .path property for directly accessing the
absolute path (as a Path object).
The general idea here is to encapsulate common patterns into type hinted
code, and gradually reduce the amount of assumptions made around the
codebase so that future changes are easier to implement.
As the chroot suffixes are now part of the Chroot class, we also
implement validation for them, this encodes the rules on suffix naming
and will cause a runtime exception if a suffix doesn't follow the rules.
Why
Btrfs has some goodness (snapshots, switching between different rw snapshot)
which plays particularly well with certain "subvolume layouts".
What
This MR seeks to implement such a layout, namely a flat btrfs layout,
where the top level subvolume (i.e. the btrfs filesystem/partition itself)
remains unmounted in all situations,
except when making changes to direct child subvolumes of the filesystem.
- rename all subvols to follow the common @* btrfs subvol naming scheme.
- add subvol @root, because roots home directory shouldn't be rolled back.
- make subvol @var not Copy-on-Write (nodatacow) to avoid write
- multiplication on logs, VMs, databases, containers and flatpaks.
- add subvol @snapshots because that lets us change the root subvol to a
read-write snapshot of @ without affecting snapshots.
- add subvol @srv because it contains data for Web and FTP servers,
which shouldn't roll back together with root subvol.
- add subvol @tmp because we don't want to snapshot temporary files.
This subvol remains unmounted on the device,
unless conditions as laid out in pmaports!4737 are met.
- add check and error for btrfs when using rsync installation.
Stock bootloader on these devices boots kernel (it is intended to boot
kernel, but i place secondary bootloader there) from special ChromeOS
kernel partition on special GPT which is created with cgpt utility.
This MR adds initial support for it introducing new deviceinfo options:
- cgpt_kpart - path to file to be flashed to ChromeOS partition;
- cgpt_kpart_start - offset from the start in sectors;
- cgpt_kpart_size - partition size in sectors.
For example:
deviceinfo_cgpt_kpart="/usr/share/u-boot/google-peach-pit/u-boot-dtb.img.kpart"
deviceinfo_cgpt_kpart_start="8192"
deviceinfo_cgpt_kpart_size="32768"
cgpt requires start and size values of partition, so these values
are calculated for each partition.
Reserved size and on-device installer are not yet supported.

"Keeping track of which partition number is what is hard to understand now.
I think this should be refactored, so we have it defined only in one
place, and easy to read. Since this merge request increases the complexity
of the partitions again, let's do it here before merging." - Oliver

Do not attempt to install with a filesystem that is not supported by the
initramfs code in the checked out pmaports branch.
Previously we would have increased the pmaports.cfg version and require
that new version by pmbootstrap, however this will break compatibility
with release branches where we won't roll out this feature (v20.05).
Therefore don't change the version, but add a new
"supported_root_filesystems" key to pmaports.cfg, which defaults to
"ext4".

Install specific filesystem tools right before they are needed, instead
of installing all filesystem tools that we might need beforehand. This
is in preparation to support f2fs.

Add comments to two functions, that if they are changed, the logic also
needs to be updated in ondev-preapre-internal-storage.sh of
postmarketos-ondev.git.
Change 'cryptsetup luksFormat' arguments to use --use-random instead of
--use-urandom. urandom is not recommended for the generation of long-term
cryptographic keys, as it may generate weak keys in low entropy
situations.
format_and_mount_root() => format_luks_root():
* Rename to reflect what it's actually doing
* Move the FDE check from format_luks_root to the only caller
* Make arguments to "cryptsetup luksFormat" more readable
format_and_mount_pm_crypt() => format_and_mount_root():
* Rename to reflect what it's actually doing
* Don't overwrite device if doing FDE; instead provide the proper device
in the caller
The old function names were for historic reasons, early on it was only
possible to create encrypted installations with pmbootstrap.
While at it, also remove unnecessary "#!/usr/bin/env python3" in files
that only get imported, and adjust other empty/comment lines in the
beginnings of the files for consistency.
This makes files easier to read, and makes the pmbootstrap codebase more
consistent with the build.postmarketos.org codebase.
This fixes#1845 without breaking #1717 (closed). The amount of inodes
only needs to be explicitly set when we don't know the size of the
filesystem before hand, for example when using fastboot or Heimdall. In
all other cases it's actually better to let it figure out automatically
how many inodes is set.
On my 16GB sdcard the amount of available inodes got increased by 10
times (from ~100K to ~1M).
This drops the --apparent-size parameter when calculating the size
required for rootfs, which seemed to return a size that was too small
for some devices. This also includes specifying the number of inodes to
support when formatting rootfs.
Fixes#1717
This is a workaround for #429, until the iteration count can be
specified directly in cryptsetup.
* Add default iter-time option, and option to override
* set SHA1 default hash for luksFormat, add option to override
* [RX51] load omap-sham in initramfs for HW accel. sha1
