The goal is to move everything that requires selinux or smack
away from src/basic/. This means that src/basic/label.[ch] must move,
which implies btrfs-util.[ch], copy.[ch], and a bunch of other files
which form a cluster of internal use.
This is just moving text around, so there should be no functional difference.
test-blockdev-util is new, because path_is_encrypted() is moved to
blockdev-util.c, and so far we didn't have any tests for code there.
Let's unify the code that checks whether an fd is on btrfs a bit.
(Also, rename btrfs_is_snapshot() to btrfs_is_subvol(), since that's
usually how this is referred to in our code)
If /var/lib/machines is mounted as btrfs loopback file system in
/var/lib/machines.raw with this change we automatically grow the file
system as it fills up. After each 10M we write to it during imports, we
check the free disk space, and if the fill level grows beyond 66% we
increase the size of the file system to 3x the fill level (thus lowering
it to 33%).
When the pool size limit is altered with "machinectl set-limit", then
not only set the subvolume quota of the /var/lib/machine subvolume, but
also resize the backing loop file and the btrfs file system on it
dynamically.
Our write pattern is quite awful for CoW file systems (btrfs...), as we
keep updating file parts in the beginning of the file. This results in
fragmented journal files. Hence: when rotating files, defragment them,
since at that point we know that no further write accesses will be made.
This adds a new bus call to machined that enumerates /var/lib/container
and returns all trees stored in it, distuingishing three types:
- GPT disk images, which are files suffixed with ".gpt"
- directory trees
- btrfs subvolumes
