The `partition.conf` file contains an EFI-size. The default is 300MiB,
but distributions might like to use a bigger (or smaller) value.
Apply the configuration consistently everywhere where we need
"the size of the EFI partition". Extend the internal method
to look at the configured size.
This class doesn't really set a pointer -- it is a scoped assignment
through a pointer, which **can** set a value on destruction (when
it leaves scope). Rename it.
While here, extend the API so that it can do an assignment to the
underlying object **now**, while also doing a scoped assignment
later when it leaves scope. This makes some code a bit easier
to read ("in this scope, X is now <v> and then it becomes <v'>")
- previously, updateSwapChoicesTr() wanted to be a static free function,
but it needs QObject::tr() ; drop the unnecessary parameter (since it
is a member function).
- do not link (explicitly) to Calamares libraries, the CMake
functions do that automatically.
- while here, tidy and remove commented-out-bits
- while here, remove unneeded includes
will be used in summaryq, reading from widgets not an option
section probably better suited for Config.cpp/h, since quite a bit of duplicated code from
createSummaryWidget
Re-use the existing message about partition type and size,
since I don't want to introduce another message with all the
specifics; give a works-always message instead.
The check itself is also straightforward, avoiding all of the
nuances and technically-this-might-work cases: FAT32, 300MiB+.
FIXES#607
Modules nearly always have a Config and either a Job or ViewStep
as their "top level" components. Everything else is implementation-
detail. The *partition* module was unusual in that those two
"top level" components were tucked away in subdirectories.
Shuffle them to the top: this makes it more clear that these
two files are there to coordinate the module.
The existing API required calling the one constructor with
specific pointers (nullptr for a partition-from-free-space)
followed by calling one of the initFrom*() functions. This
is fragile design.
Use tag-classes to distinguish create-from-free-space and
edit-another-freshly-created-partition cases, refactor
to merge the initFrom*() methods into the constructors
and factor out the shared UI creation.
Callers can now use the tag-class to distinguish. While
here, adjust both callers to use QPointer, avoiding some
very specific dialog-on-the-stack crash possibilities.
When a partition is set as "freshly created", the dialog was
passing in newFlags() as the **already-active** flags on the
partition; then the caller was setting those same flags as
"set these in the future", so that afterwards, no flags would
actually be set (because they're already active -- see the
first sentence).
Now, fresh partitions have no flags.
- fsName was a QString (a copy) so it could be modified;
- the modification isn't really necessary.
- While here, pick up new PointerSetter convenience class.
PARTITION_UNSAFE is a debug mode. It is not used in
production, because it allows you to pick an install
device that would be dangerous (e.g. the current / device).
Existing code kept two copies of a list of pointers,
and deleted pointers from one of the lists and returned
the other -- which now contains dangling pointers.
Refactor by applying suitable lambdas to a single
copy of the list; this avoids copying the list so
there is no danger of dangling pointers.
The bootloader model knows about both rows and
devices, so we can look up both at once. The
existing implementation as a non-member was rather
sketchy and wasn't used except as support for
restoreSelectedBootLoader().
- the %4 is left-over from the feature-summary string,
- replace it with ""; don't change the source string
because that will break translations right now.
- Move variables closer to where they are needed
- Do the winnowing / selection always, but in unsafe mode return
the un-winnowed list of devices
- Massage build documentation a little
You'll need a VM with 2 disks to demonstrate:
- Configure Calamares to pick "none" as initial action on
the partition page (this is a safe choice),
- Enter partition page,
- No action is selected, and the next> button is greyed out.
- Click erase; notice next> is now available.
- Change devices, notice no action is selected, but next>
is still available. Clicking on it, though, does nothing.
When changing to "no action", update the next-button's
availability.
Avoid the extra indirection through the otherwise-unused
prettyGptType(const QString&), construct table of names
only on first call to avoid static-initialization order
(though that's not important here).
In particular, we need a separate Job class to set the label; this
is invoked after we formatted a partition, and when no other changes
to the partition have been requested in the Edit dialog.
The partition- and filesystem-label setting code was already there,
but not in the call to createNewPartition(); now we set the
FS label twice (once in the call, once afterwards)
When creating or editing a new formatted partition, allow
to set a filesystem label (16 chars maximum). Modify
the KPMHelpers to accept it as a new parameter. Partitions
created by default may get a meaningful label too.
FIXES#1604
(Admittedly, this fixes the problem only when there's Plasma Solid automount
present, and not any of the other kinds; but none of those have been reported
yet, and adding them into AutoMount.cpp is opaque to the rest of the
system)
- It shouldn't be necessary to explicitly .get() pointers for
logging, and it's convenient to know when a pointer is smart.
* no annotation means raw (e.g. @0x0)
* S means shared
* U means unique
- switch logging in job to VERBOSE because we don't want to be printing
pointers to the regular session log
- switch logging in test to VERBOSE to actually see the messages from the Job
- hook the test into the build
- factor out the flags-we-want from the flags-we-already-have
- the use of ->activeFlags() meant that the state on *disk* was
being compared with the flags-we-want; if a partition was re-edited,
then you couldn't change the flags back to the state-on-disk
(eg. enable a flag, then change your mind and disable it).
- set the flags before refreshing the partition, because the
refresh checks for EFI bootability and that needs the new flags,
not the old ones.
- remove the m_defaultFSType from PartitionLayout, because it is
set on construction -- which is too early, before the configuration
has been read.
- make the default FS explicit in the init() calls which pass in
a configuration; this needs support in the intermediate
PartitionCoreModule.
- the "simple" constructor for PartitionEntry left the FS type
set as the constructor left it -- which is Unknown by default.
This leads to install failures in systems that don't set a
special layout but just want a single / -- because the FS is
set to Unknown.
- massage the constructor and consumer of the code, push
Ext4 FS in the tests and use the configured default in production.
Some compile flags changed recently, triggering assert()
in the jobqueue when there is more than one. There's no
real reason for JobQueue to be a singleton, but it wants
to be. So clean up pointers a little more enthusiastically.
The code doesn't match the comment: there are no by-ref captures
in the code, and the shadowing of parameters and local variables
is confusing. Remove one variable that is passed in as an argument
(and just pass the value as argument) and copy-capture the other
rather than doing weird argument passing.
- remove unused this captures from lambda
- rename variables that are short, cryptic, and shadowed
- remove documentation for parameters that don't exist
This commit adds the new configuration `swapPartitionName` to the file
partition.conf.
This option sets the partition name to the swap partition that is
created. If this option is unset, the partition is left unnamed.
- Rename the "size" locals using "sectors" in their name. Size may be
confusing or not enough specific as it can be interpreted a size in
Byte.
partSizeMap -> partSectorsMap,
totalSize -> totalSectors,
availablesize -> availableSectors,
size -> sectors,
minSize -> minSectors
maxSize -> maxSectors
- Create a the new local currentSector to iterate over the sectors;
instead of using the parameter firstSector.
- Remove the variable end that does not help much; too many variable
already. Expand its expression instead.
- Introduces new constructors for PartitionEntry: copy constructory and
constructor with all attributes.
- Use the new constructor in method addEntry().
- The variant helper toString() takes a default value since commit
c9f942ad6 ([libcalamares] Add default value to variant helpers).
- Set the default value to 0 and simplify the retreival of size values
by calling the helper toString() and removing the temporary variables.
- The logic of the method initLayout belongs to the object
PartitionLayout. Move logic to that object.
- Use a single method initLayout in object PartitionCoreModule.
- Member m_partLayout in object PartitionCoreModule is no longer
allocated.
- if the partition size is invalid, then warn about it but do
not print the (uninitialized) size of the partition.
- shuffle code to continue earlier, allowing the "good path"
code to be out-dented.
