This applies to a case such as when /lib is a symlink to /usr/lib. If a
package is installed which contains /lib/libfoo.so, pacman will complain
if this package is then "fixed" to contain /usr/lib/libfoo.so. Since
these have the same effective path and it exists within the same
package, ignore the conflict.
Fixes FS#30681.

File paths are resolved if necessary during inter-package conflict
checks so that packages carrying the same effective file due to
directory symlinks on the filesystem are flagged as conflicting.

To improve conflict checking, we will need to make these functions
diverge to an extent where having two separate functions will be
preferable.

We have a few of these and might as well gather them together. This also
cleans up the code a bit by using an enum instead of integer values, as
well as makes a "search for file in filelist" function public so
frontends can do better than straight linear search of the filelists.

Take advantage of the fact that our filelists are arrays sorted by
filename with a known length and use a binary search. This should speed
up file conflict checking, particularly when larger packages are
involved.

When checking if a package owns a directory, it is important to check
not only that all the files in the directory are part of the package,
but also if the directory is part of a package. This catches empty
subdirectories during conflict checking for directory to file/symlink
replacements.

When two packages own an empty directory, pacman finds no conflict when
one of those packages wants to replace the directory with a file or a
symlink. When it comes to actually extracting the new file/symlink,
pacman sees the directory is still there (we do not remove empty
directories if they are owned by a package) and refuses to extract.
Detect this potential conflict early and bail. Note that it is a
_potential_ conflict and not a guaranteed one as the other package owning
the directory could be updated or removed first which would remove
the conflict. However, pacman currently can not sort package installation
order to ensure this, so this conflict requires manual upgrade ordering.

Ensures that config.h is always ordered correctly (first) in the
includes. Also means that new source files get this for free without
having to remember to add it.
We opt for -imacros over -include as its more portable, and the
added constraint by -imacros doesn't bother us for config.h.
This also touches the HACKING file to remove the explicit mention of

There aretwo seperate issues in the same block of file conflict
checking code here:
1) If realpath errored, such as when a symlink was broken, we would call
'continue' rather than simply exit this particular method of
resolution. This was likely just a copy-paste mistake as the previous
resolving steps all use loops where continue makes sense. Refactor
the check so we only proceed if realpath is successful, and continue
with the rest of the checks either way.
2) The real problem this code was trying to solve was canonicalizing
path component (e.g., directory) symlinks. The final component, if
not a directory, should not be handled at all in this loop. Add a
!S_ISLNK() condition to the loop so we only call this for real files.
There are few other small cleanups to the debug messages that I made
while debugging this problem- we don't need to keep printing the file
name, and ensure every block that sets resolved_conflict to true prints
a debug message so we know how it was resolved.
This fixes the expected failures from symlink010.py and symlink011.py,
while still ensuring the fix for fileconflict007.py works.

When we switched to a file object and not just a simple string, we missed an
update along the way here in target-target conflicts. This patch looks

simply code cleanup.

This was just disgusting before, unnecessary to limit these to only
usage in a transaction. Still a lot of more room for cleanup but we'll

The functions alpm_db_get_name(), alpm_pkg_get_name(), and

We did this with depends way back in commit c244cfecf6 in 2007. We
can do it with these fields as well.
Of note is the inclusion of provides even though only '=' is supported-
we'll parse other things, but no guarantees are given as to behavior,
which is more or less similar to before since we only looked for the
equals sign.
Also of note is the non-inclusion of optdepends; this will likely be
resolved down the road.
The biggest benefactors of this change will be the resolving code that
formerly had to parse and reparse several of these fields; it only
happens once now at load time. This does lead to the disadvantage that
we will now always be parsing this information up front even if we never
need it in the split form, but as these are uncommon fields and our
parser is quite efficient it shouldn't be a big concern.

Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
This accomplishes quite a few things with one rather invasive change.
1. Iteration is much more performant, due to a reduction in pointer
chasing and linear item access.
2. Data structures are smaller- we no longer have the overhead of the
linked list as the file struts are now laid out consecutively in
memory.
3. Memory allocation has been massively reworked. Before, we would
allocate three different pieces of memory per file item- the list
struct, the file struct, and the copied filename. What this resulted
in was massive fragmentation of memory when loading filelists since
the memory allocator had to leave holes all over the place. The new
situation here now removes the need for any list item allocation;
allocates the file structs in contiguous memory (and reallocs as
necessary), leaving only the strings as individually allocated. Tests
using valgrind (massif) show some pretty significant memory
reductions on the worst case `pacman -Ql > /dev/null` (366387 files
on my machine):
Before:
Peak heap: 54,416,024 B
Useful heap: 36,840,692 B
Extra heap: 17,575,332 B
After:
Peak heap: 38,004,352 B
Useful heap: 28,101,347 B
Extra heap: 9,903,005 B

The bulk of this commit is adding new tests to ensure the new behavior
works without disrupting old behavior. This is a relatively sane maneuver
when a package adds a conf file (e.g. '/etc/mercurial/hgrc') that was
not previously in the package, but it is placed in the backup array. In
essence, we can treat the existing file as having always been a part of
the package and do our normal compare/install as pacnew logic checks.

This addresses FS#24904. In a normal upgrade case, this replacement
seems to work just fine. However, when doing a sync "replace" type
upgrade, we weren't properly handling this edge case due to path
comparison not ignoring trailing slashes. Fix this by pruning any
trailing slashes past a certain point of file conflict resolution where
we no longer need them, which allows us to safely detect cases such as
now tested in the new pactest.
