- For unsafe installations (compile-time option), make sure
things fail before partitions are actually written, unless
the other option is also turned off.
- This is a compile-time choice, and off by default. This may be useful
for developers that need to get through installation to a different
partition on their root drive.
- Add an option to avoid actually doing unsafe things. This is an extra
safeguard; you need to turn on one and turn off the other option to
really be unsafe.
- This was commented out to combat the crash in device->type()
- I believe the crash was caused by double-deletion, which was
fixed in 2092ec3c9a by not re-
parenting an immutable copy of something.
- Restore the button-fix, since we need that to keep the
*create* button in-sync with the selected partition.
FIXES#1097
As requested, this commit adds a new configuration option to the
partition.conf file, name `efiSystemPartitionSize`.
When this option is absent, the default size of 300MiB will be used.

In order to allow the use of these functions across the whole partition
module and keep all partition size-related functions in the same
namespace, this commit moves them to PartUtils.

- Make some methods that are called mostly as slots, actual slots,
instead of going through extra lambdas.
- Use QOverload<>::of for disambiguation instead of homebrew casts.
- Provide a convenience method that names a Partition* with the
best human-readable name we can find (worst-case, spit out a
pointer representation which will at least help figure out
the identity of the Partition*).
- Can't re-parent across threads easily
- If device is made by immutableDeviceCopy(), then it's still owned by the
PartitionCoreModule; giving it away to the widget is not a good idea.
Due to changes to the FileSsytem::typeForName() function, more
processing is needed to deal with locales and different cases.
This is done by refactoring the findFS() function, initially located in
the PartitionViewStep class, and making it available to the whole module.
Additionnally, more checks have been implemented regarding the use of
global storage in the PartitionLayout class, and the filesystem types
now use the correct FileSystem::Type, as requested.

- The default window title in the designer file wasn't a good string
to translate. Use one of the titles instanced from elsewhere.
- The window titles set in subclasses were not translatable.
FIXES#1092
When using the default partition layout (only a `/` partition), the
filesystem used was ext4, ignoring the `defaultFileSystemType`
configuration option.
This commit fixes this bug, so that any supported filesystem can now be
used for the default partitioning scheme.

- Add a (superfluous, since they don't have their own signals or slots)
Q_OBJECT macro to the VG jobs, to silence a Transifex warning (this
does make sure that the tool knows about the context for the translated
messages)
- Store changes to the selected swap-choice when the combobox changes
- Use that member instead of dereferencing the combobox
This avoids nullptr crashes when the combobox isn't even created
(e.g. when there is only one swap choice).
- drop the localized comparisons; that's just confusing
- warn when no default FS is set (then use ext4)
- fix case-insensitive fallback; it used fsType, which was
set to Unknown in the for loop.
- Using the assignment-operator just generates blank lines.
- Using QLog with a log-level avoids the cDebug()-style special
handling of warnings and errors (useless here, but may as well
fix code style).
When setting the size of a partition without indicating the unit, two
problems occur:
- the size is parsed as an integer, not as a string, hence the
configuration parsing fails
- the size parser doesn't recognize the fact that the size has no units
and defaults to 100%
This patch fixes the configuration parsing as well as the size string
parsing.

When a partition doesn't have a minimum size in the partition layout
configuration, it defaults to using 100% of the available space.
This patch fixes this error by setting the minimum partition size to 0
when the attribute has been omitted.

- Use locale "C" for checking filesystem names
- Also check other possibilities and case-insensitive, to
be more forgiving of weird configurations (and localizations)
Due to a computation error when calculating the total drive space and
each partition's last sector, the last partition's last sector was out
of boundaries, leading to an error creating this partition.
This patch fixes the computation algorithm to get rid of this error.

When chosing the "Replace partition" option, free space is not handled
like any partition. In order to apply the custom partition layout in
that case too, we have to modify the code where "replace free space" is
handled.

In some cases where a custom partition layout is used, use of this
layout is mandatory (this can be the case when using a read-only rootfs
which is updated by block-cpying an image file to it).
For these cases, the user must not be able to change the partition
layout, therefore we have to disable manual partitioning.
In order to stay consistent with current behaviour, manual partitioning
is still enabled by default. It will only be disabled if the partition
module's config file contains the corresponding option set to "false".

This patches add new methods to both PartitionLayout and
PartitionCoreModule classes which apply the partition layout to the
available drive space.
In addition, the partition creation code from PartitioinActions is
removed to call the newly created methods instead, thus applying the

partition" choices are selected.

As we move some of the partition creation code away from
PartitionActions, we will need the bytesToSectors function. Rather than
copying it, we export it in the PartitionActions namespace, so that
other classes can use it.

In order to keep the partition layout during calamares' execution, we
add a PartitionLayout object instance to PartitionCoreModule. This class
will therefore be used to initialize the PartitionLayout object and
interact with it thoughout the program's execution.
When no partition layout is present in the config file, we initialize
the layout with a single ext4 partition mounted on '/', as it was
previously done.

In order to use a custom partition layout in the partition module, we
need to write this layout in the module's config file, and store it into
a dedicated object.
As it doesn't look appropriate to extend an existing class with layout
information, we create a new PartitionLayout class, which will be used
to parse the layout from the config file and keep it in memory.

- The noload option prevents journal re-play (so it's an extra-
strong read-only) but is only applicable to ext3 and ext4.
Check the FS type before mounting; other FS types don't
accept -o noload and will fail to mount.
- This only applies to legacy (non-EFI) BIOS systems, and
adds the FlagBoot to whatever is already set for the root
filesystem, and only when autopartitioning the device.

FIXES: #1046CLOSES: #1049
Suggested by aliveafter1000: having a default value, and then
filling in the default in one place it is used and not others,
is weird. Instead of dropping the one use, remove the default
value: partition flags are important enough to be explicit.
- Handle legacy and modern config, mixed-configs,
- Translate strings to enum values,
- Default and warn as appropriate.
- Doesn't **do** anything with the config, though.
- Running lsblk and mount for debugging purposes can be
skipped when the debugging is going to be suppressed anyway.
This will speed things up just a little for regular users.
- While winnowing devices, the zram and nullptr cases
were mixed together; split them, for the sake of
logging more accurately.
- While here, fix up some coding-style issues.
- Q_ASSERT doesn't work in constexpr functions because it's not
- May as well calculate bytes at compile-time, no need to give
the runaround via number-of-MiB
- The choice of swap needs to be handled in more places,
so make the enum available in the partition module core instead
of just inside the choice page.

This fixes the crash by calling the model-reset first, then
refreshing. Previously, the destructors that do the work
were still being called in the wrong order.
FIXES#1019
- The ResetHelper only finalized changes to the module on
destruction, but calls to refresh() assumed it was already
done. This leads to crashes when refresh() uses an intermediate
state of the model.
Introduce extra helpers, and rename refresh() to avoid calling the
old implementation from any code. The new helper just creates and
destroys a ResetHelper, before creating and destroying an object
that calls the new refreshAfterModelChange().
FIXES#1019
ESP == boot. at best this is duplicated information, at worst kpmcore may
implode if you try to set a boot flag since that is technically an MBR
type flag and means nothing within the context of GPT where ESP is the flag
to set.
having ESP as active flag AND then trying to set ESP means nothing is
set since kpmcore will think ESP is already set (it is listed as active
after all). this ultimately meant that nothing was set since there was
no delta between the requested flags and the already active flags.
