Linux-swap is recreated as part of copy, resize and move operations and
the code was special cased to implement that by calling the linux-swap
specific resize method. However the displayed text always said "growing
file system" and then proceeded to recreate linux swap. Example
operation:
Copy /dev/sdb1 to /dev/sdb2
...
+ copy file system from /dev/sdb1 to /dev/sdb2
Partition copy action skipped because linux-swap file system does not contain data
+ grow file system to fill the partition
+ create new linux-swap file system
+ mkswap -L"" -U "77d939ef-54d6-427a-a2bf-a053da7eed4c" /dev/sdb2
Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 262140 KiB
LABEL=, UUID=77d939ef-54d6-427a-a2bf-a053da7eed4c
Fix by writing recreate_linux_swap_filesystem() method with better
messaging and use everywhere maximise_filesystem() was previously used
to recreate linux-swap. Also as this is a create step, erase the
partition first to prevent the possibility of any other file system
signatures being found afterwards. Now the operation steps are more
reflective of what is actually being performed.
Copy /dev/sdb1 to /dev/sdb2
...
+ copy file system from /dev/sdb1 to /dev/sdb2
Partition copy action skipped because linux-swap file system does not contain data
+ clear old file system signatures in /dev/sdb2
+ create new linux-swap file system
+ mkswap -L"" -U "77d939ef-54d6-427a-a2bf-a053da7eed4c" /dev/sdb2
Setting up swapspace version 1, size = 262140 KiB
LABEL=, UUID=77d939ef-54d6-427a-a2bf-a053da7eed4c
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
resize_filesystem() was meeting two different needs:
1) when called with fill_partition = false it generated operation
details;
2) when called from maximize_filesystem() with fill_partition = true it
skipped generating any operation details;
then ran the switch statement to select the resize implementation. So
extract the common switch statement into new method
resize_filesystem_implement().
Then observe that the only time resize_filesystem() was called to grow
the file system was when re-creating linux-swap. Therefore change that
call to use maximize_filesystem() and rename to shrink_filesystem() and
modify the operation detail messages to match.
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
Make the methods called below apply_operation_to_disk() follow a
standard naming convention:
* Contains "_partition"
Uses libparted to query or change the partition in the disk label
(partition table).
E.g.:
calibrate_partition()
create_partition()
delete_partition()
name_partition()
resize_move_partition()
set_partition_type()
* Contains "_filesystem"
Manipulates the file system within the partition, mostly using the
FileSystem and derived class methods.
E.g.:
create_filesystem()
remove_filesystem()
label_filesystem()
copy_filesystem()
erase_filesystem_signatures()
check_repair_filesystem()
resize_filesystem()
maximize_filesystem()
* Other
Compound method calling multiple partition and file system related
apply methods.
E.g.:
create()
format()
copy()
resize_move()
resize()
move()
Rename:
Delete() -> delete_partition()
change_uuid() -> change_filesystem_uuid()
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
Until now an encryption mapping has been modelled as a Partition object
similar to a partition like this:
.encrypted.device_path = "/dev/sdb1"
.encrypted.path = "/dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt"
.encrypted.whole_device = false
.encrypted.sector_start = // start of the mapping in the partition
.encrypted.sector_end = // end of the mapping in the partition
However accessing device_path in the start to end sector range is not
equivalent to accessing the partition path as it doesn't provide access
to the encrypted data. Therefore existing functions which read and
write partition data (GParted file system copying and signature erasure)
via libparted using the device_path won't work and will in fact destroy
the encrypted data. This could be coded around with an extra case in
the device opening code, however it is not necessary.
An encrypted block special device /dev/mapper/CRYPTNAME looks just like
a whole disk device because it doesn't contain a partition and the file
system it contains starts at sector 0 and goes to the end. Therefore
model an encryption mapping in the same way a whole disk device is
modelled as a Partition object like this:
.encrypted.device_path = "/dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt"
.encrypted.path = "/dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt"
.encrypted.whole_device = true
.encrypted.sector_start = 0
.encrypted.sector_end = // size of the encryption mapping - 1
Now GParted file system copy and erasure will just work without any
change. Just need to additionally store the LUKS header size, which was
previous stored in the sector_start, for use in the
get_sectors_{used,unused,unallocated}() calculations.
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
Split out the switch statement selecting the copy implementation and
associated copy file system operation detail message into a separate
copy_filesystem() method, matching how a number of other operations are
coded. This is why the previous copy_filesystem() methods needed
renaming.
Re-write the remaining copy() into if-operation-fails-return-false style
to simplify it. Re-write final complicated conditional check repair and
maximise file system into separate positive if conditions for swap and
larger partition to make it understandable.
The min_size parameter to copy() was queried from the partition_src
parameter also passed to copy(). Drop the parameter and query inside
copy() instead.
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
Rename GParted_Core methods:
copy_filesystem(4 params) -> copy_filesystem_internal()
copy_filesystem(5 params) -> copy_filesystem_internal()
copy_filesystem(10 params) -> copy_blocks()
See the following commit for the desire to do this.
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
Files were named Block_Copy and the class was named block_copy. Change
to the primary naming convention of CamelCase class name and matching
file names.
Also make CopyBlocks::copy_block() a private method as it is only used
internally within the class.
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
These two methods had a lot of repeated and common code. Both determine
if the partition has any pending operations, notify the user that
changing the busy status can not be performed, and report any errors
when changing the status.
Extract the common code into sub-functions check_toggle_busy_allowed()
and show_toggle_failure_dialog() to handle showing the message dialogs.
Also refactor toggle_busy_state() to make it clear that it handles 5
cases of swapon, swapoff, activate VG, deactivate VG and unmount file
system.
Also remove out of date comment near the top of toggle_busy_state()
stating there can only be pending operations for inactive partitions is
out of date. Some file systems can be resized while online and
partition naming is allowed whatever the busy status of the file system.
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
The primary reason to refactor unmount_partition() is to pass the
Partition object to be unmounted, rather than use member variable
selected_partition_ptr so that it doesn't have to handle the differences
between encrypted and non-encrypted Partition objects. The calling
function can deal with that instead. Then there were lots of small
reasons to change almost every other line too:
* Return success or failure rather than updating a passed pointer with
the result. Leftover from when the function used to be a separate
thread:
commit 52a2a9b00a
Reduce threading (#685740)
* Pass updated error string by reference rather than by pointer. Likely
another leftover.
* Stop borrowing the updated error string as a local variable for the
error output from the umount command. Use new umount_error local
variable instead. Was bad practice making the code harder to
understand.
* Rename failed_mountpoints to skipped_mountpoints to better reflect
that it contains the mount points not attempted to be unmounted
because two or more file systems are mounted at that point.
* Rename errors to umount_errors to better reflect it contains the
errors from each failed umount command.
* Document the reason for mount points being skipped.
* Update the skipped mount points message to state definitely why they
could not be unmounted rather than stating most likely.
* Simplify logic processing the error cases and return value.
* Made static because it no longer accesses any class members.
* Remove out dated "//threads.." comment from the header. Another
leftover from when the function use to be a separate thread.
Bug 775932 - Refactor mostly applying of operations
Reorder the parameters into the same order in which they occur in the
row, i.e. Name first, then Mount Point and finally Label. Rename local
variables in load_partitions(1 param) and parameters of
load_partitions(5 params) prefixing with "show_" to make it clearer the
variables track if that column will be displayed or not.
create_row() populates the values for each row to be displayed in the UI
from the relevant Partition object. However load_partitions(5 params)
independently decided if the Name, Mount Point and Label columns were
empty and should be displayed.
Getting the mount point value is more complex for encrypted file systems
because it has to call get_mountpoints() on the inner encrypted
Partition object. load_partitions(5 params) didn't account for this.
Fix by making create_row() both copy the values into each row and at the
same time check if they are empty to decide if they should be displayed
or not.
Bug 775475 - Mount Point column displayed for encrypted file systems
even when empty
If the GParted main window is closed before the initial device load
completed gpartedbin never exits. The main window closes but the
process sits there idle forever. Subsequently running GParted reports
this error:
# gparted
The process gpartedbin is already running.
Only one gpartedbin process is permitted.
If the user is running GParted from a desktop menu they will never see
this error so they will never know why GParted won't start any more.
More technically, it is if the main window is closed before the
Win_GParted::on_show() callback completes.
I assume the Gtk main loop doesn't setup the normal quit handling until
the on_show() callback finishes drawing the main window for the first
time. Following this hint [1], move the initial device load from the
on_show() callback to immediately after it completes by using a run once
idle callback setup in on_show().
This looks exactly the same to the user except now gpartedbin exits when
the main window is closed during the initial device load. Note that
GParted finished the device load before exiting. This is exactly the
same as happens when exiting during subsequent device refreshes.

them impossible to read when using GNOME's High Contrast Inverse theme:
ff2a6c00dd
Changes post gparted-0.3.6 - code recreation from Source Forge
* src/TreeView_Detail.cc: Removed text_color hard coding
- Removed hard coding of Partition and Filesystem text_color
which was based on if partition was TYPE_UNALLOCATED.
- Removed hard coding of Mount text_color which was based
on if partition was busy. Lock symbol provides this indicator.
- Closes GParted bug #413810 - Don't hardcode text colour in
partition list
Now remove the remaining vestiges left behind. Remove the unused color
text and mount_text_color columns from the tree model. Also remove
setting of the column attributes which set the colour of the text in the
tree view from those unused columns in the tree model.

The GParted_Core::mount_info and GParted_Core::fstab_info maps and the
methods that manipulate them are self-contained. Therefore move them to
a separate Mount_Info module and reduce the size of the monster
GParted_Core slightly.
The FS_Info module has a pseudo multi-object interface and used the
constructor to load the cache. However all the data in the class is
static. An FS_Info object doesn't contain any member variables, yet was
needed just to call the member functions.
Make all the member functions static removing the need to use any
FS_Info objects and provide an explicit load_cache() method.
The Proc_Partitions_Info has a pseudo multi-object interface and uses
the constructor to load the cache. However all the data in the class is
static. A Proc_Partitions_Info object doesn't contain any member
variables, yet was needed just to call the member functions.
Make all the member functions static removing the need to use any
Proc_Partitions_Info objects and provide and explicit load_cache()
method.
Vol_id has been retired and removed from all supported distributions.
See earlier commit "Remove use of retired vol_id from FS_Info module
(#767842)" for more details. Therefore remove it's use from GParted
entirely.
GParted is already reading /proc/partitions to get whole disk device
names. The file also contains the major, minor device number of every
partition. Use this information to pre-populate the cache in the
BlockSpecial class.
# cat /proc/partitions
major minor #blocks name
8 0 20971520 sda
8 1 512000 sda1
8 2 20458496 sda2
...
9 3 1047552 md3
259 2 262144 md3p1
259 3 262144 md3p2
...
253 0 18317312 dm-0
253 1 2097152 dm-1
253 2 8383872 dm-2
253 3 1048576 dm-3
Note that for Device-Mapper names (dm-*) the kernel is not using the
canonical user space names (mapper/*). There is no harm in
pre-populating the cache with these names and will help if tools report
them too. It is just that for DMRaid, LVM and LUKS, GParted uses the
canonical /dev/mapper/* names so will still have to call stat() once for
each such name.
For plain disks (sd*) and Linux Software RAID arrays (md*) the kernel
name is the common user space name too, therefore matches what GParted
uses and pre-populating does avoid calling stat() at all for these
names.
Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
Creation of every BlockSpecial object used to result in a stat() OS
call. On one of my test VMs debugging with 4 disks and a few partitions
on each, GParted refresh generated 541 calls to stat() in the
BlockSpecial(name) constructor. However there were only 45 unique
names. So on average each name was stat()ed approximately 12 times.
Cache the major, minor number associated with each name after starting
with a cleared cache for each GParted refresh. This reduces these
direct calls to stat() to just the 45 unique names.
Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
The FS_Info cache is loaded from "blkid" output and compares block
special names. Therefore switch to using BlockSpecial objects so that
comparisons are performed by the major, minor device number instead.
Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
FS_Info module caches the output from blkid as a single string and uses
regular expressions to find the line matching the requested block
special file name. This is not compatible with using BlockSpecial
objects to represent block special files, and perform matching by major,
minor device number. Therefore parse the blkid output into a vector of
structures containing the needed fields, ready for switching to
BlockSpecial objects in the following patch.
Interface to the module remains unchanged.
Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
Vol_id was removed from udev 142, released 2009-05-13, and udev switched
to using blkid instead [1]. All currently supported distributions use
later versions of udev (or systemd after the udev merge), except for
RedHat / CentOS 5 with udev 095. However RedHat / CentOS 5 does provide
blkid and vol_id is found in udev specific /lib/udev directory not on
the PATH. Therefore effectively vol_id is not available on any
supported distribution and blkid is always available. Therefore remove
use of vol_id from the FS_Info module. Less code to refactor and test
in following changes.
[1] delete vol_id and require util-linux-ng's blkid

Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block

The SWRaid_Info cache is loaded from "mdadm" command output and

Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block

Small optimisation which avoids constructing an extra BlockSpecial
object when determining if a btrfs member is mounted. Rather than
extracting the name from the BlockSpecial object in
btrfs::get_mount_device() and re-constructing another BlockSpecial
object from that name in GParted_Core::is_dev_mounted(), pass the
BlockSpecial object directly.
Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
There are no known errors which affect the remaining caches in GParted.
However those caches which compare block special devices will be changed
to use BlockSpecial objects so comparison is by major, minor device
number rather than by name.
Change btrfs member cache loaded from "btrfs filesystem show" output to
use BlockSpecial objects.
Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
On some distributions having btrfs on top of LUKS encrypted partitions,
adding a second device and removing the first device used to mount the
file system causes GParted to no longer be able to report the file
system as busy or the mount points themselves.
For example, on CentOS 7, create a single btrfs file system and mount
it. The provided /dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt name is reported, via
/proc/mounts, as the mounting device:
# cryptsetup luksFormat --force-password /dev/sdb1
# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb1 sdb1_crypt
# mkfs.btrfs -L encrypted-btrfs /dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt
# mount /dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt /mnt/1
# ls -l /dev/mapper
total 0

# fgrep btrfs /proc/mounts
/dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt /mnt/1 btrfs rw,seclabel,relatime,space_cache 0 0
Add a second device to the btrfs file system:
# cryptsetup luksFormat --force-password /dev/sdb2
# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb2 sdb2_crypt
# btrfs device add /dev/mapper/sdb2_crypt /mnt/1
# ls -l /dev/mapper
...
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 7 Jul 2 15:12 sdb2_crypt -> ../dm-3

devid 2 size 1022.00MiB used 0.00B path /dev/mapper/sdb2_crypt
Remove the first mounting device from the btrfs file system. Now the
non-canonical name /dev/dm-3 is reported, via /proc/mounts, as the
mounting device:
# btrfs device delete /dev/mapper/sdb1_crypt /mnt/1
# btrfs filesystem show /dev/mapper/sdb2_crypt
Label: 'encrypted-btrfs' uuid: 45d7b1ef-820c-4ef8-8abd-c70d928afb49
Total devices 1 FS bytes used 96.00KiB
devid 2 size 1022.00MiB used 144.00MiB path /dev/mapper/sdb2_crypt

# ls -l /dev/dm-3
brw-rw----. 1 root disk 253, 3 Jul 2 15:12 /dev/dm-3
GParted loads the mount_info mapping from /proc/mounts and with it the
/dev/dm-3 name. When GParted is determining if the encrypted btrfs file
system is mounted or getting the mount points it is using the
/dev/mapper/sdb2_crypt name. Therefore no information is found and the
file system is incorrectly reported as unmounted.
Fix by changing mount_info and fstab_info to use BlockSpecial objects
instead of strings so that matching is performed by major, minor device
numbers rather than by string compare. Note that as BlockSpecial
objects are used as the key of std::map [1] mappings operator<() [2]
needs to be provided to order the key values.

Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
In some cases creating an LVM2 Physical Volume on top of a DMRaid array
reports no usage information and this partition warning:
Unable to read the contents of this file system!
Because of this some operations may be unavailable.
The cause might be a missing software package.
The following list of software packages is required for lvm2
pv file system support: lvm2.
For example on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (with GParted built with
--enable-libparted-dmraid) create an LVM2 PV in a DMRaid array
partition. GParted uses this command:
# lvm pvcreate -M 2 /dev/mapper/isw_bacdehijbd_MyArray0p2
But LVM reports the PV having a different name:
# lvm pvs
PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree
/dev/disk/by-id/dm-name-isw_bacdehijbd_MyArray0p2 lvm2 a-- 1.00g 1.00g
This alternate name is loaded into the LVM2_PV_Info module cache. Hence
when GParted queries partition /dev/mapper/isw_bacdehijbd_MyArray0p2 it
has no PV information against that name and reports unknown usage.
However they are actually the same block special device; major 252,
minor 2:
# ls -l /dev/mapper/isw_bacdehijbd_MyArray0p2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 2 Jul 2 11:09 /dev/mapper/isw_bacdehijbd_MyArray0p2
# ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/dm-name-isw_bacdehijbd_MyArray0p2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul 2 11:09 /dev/disk/by-id/dm-name-isw_bacdehijbd_MyArray0p2 -> ../../dm-2
# ls -l /dev/dm-2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 252, 2 Jul 2 11:09 /dev/dm-2
To determine if two names refer to the same block special device their
major, minor numbers need to be compared, instead of string comparing
their names.
Implement class BlockSpecial which encapsulates the name and major,
minor numbers for a block special device. Also performs comparison as
needed. See bug 767842 comments 4 and 5 for further investigation and
decision for choosing to implement a class.
Replace name strings in the LVM2_PV_Info module with BlockSpecial
objects performing correct block special device comparison.

Also get rid of the now unneeded optional parameter which was only

Bug 767842 - File system usage missing when tools report alternate block
device names
Background
GParted stored a list of paths for Device and Partition objects. It
sorted this list [1][2] and treated the first specially as that is what
get_path() returned and was used almost everywhere; with the file system
specific tools, looked up in various *_Info caches, etc.
[1] Device::add_path(), ::add_paths()
[2] Partition::add_path(), ::add_paths()
Mount point display [3] was the only bit of GParted which really worked
with the path list. Busy file system detection [4] just used the path
provided by libparted, or for LUKS /dev/mapper/* names. It checked that
single path against the mounted file systems found from /proc/mounts,
expanded with additional block device names when symlinks were
encountered.
[3] GParted_Core::set_mountpoints() -> set_mountpoints_helper()
[4] GParted_Core::set_device_partitions() -> is_busy()
GParted_Core::set_device_one_partition() -> is_busy()
GParted_Core::set_luks_partition() -> is_busy()
Having the first path, by sort order, treated specially by being used
everywhere and virtually ignoring the others was wrong, complicated to
remember and difficult code with. As all the additional paths were
virtually unused and made no difference, remove them. The "improved
detection of mountpoins, free space, etc.." benefit from commit [5]
doesn't seem to exist. Therefore simplify to a single path for Device
and Partition objects.
[5] commit 6d8b169e73
changed the way devices and partitions store their device paths.
Instead of holding a 'realpath' and a symbolic path we store paths
in a list. This allows for improved detection of mountpoins, free
space, etc..
This patch
Simplify the Device object from a vector of paths to a single path.
Remove add_paths() and get_paths() methods. Keep add_path() and
get_path() for now.

...
When Win_GParted::activate_delete() was stepping through the operation
list removing operations (2 & 3 in the above recreation steps) which
related to the new partition never to be created it called
get_partition_new() on all operations in the list. This included
calling get_partition_new() on the check operation (1 in the above
recreation steps). As partition_new was not set or used by the check
operation get_partition_new() asserted false and crashed GParted.
Fix by populating the partition_new member in OperationCheck objects,
thus allowing get_partition_new() to be called on the object. As a
check operation doesn't change any partition boundaries or file system
attributes, just duplicate the new partition from the original
partition.
Bug 767233 - GParted core dump on assert failure in
OperationDelete::get_partition_new()
The previous commit (Fix crash reading NTFS usage when there is no
/dev/PTN entry) identified that the FileSystem member variable "index"
is too small on 64-bit machines. Also this member variable stores no
FileSystem class information and was being used as a local variable.
Replace with local variables of the of the correct type, wide enough to
store the npos not found value.

/dev/PTN entry
As part of the internal block copy operation 5 initial ranges of blocks
are copied using different block sizes to determine the fastest. Then
the remainder is copied using the fastest block size. Each of these
copies reports progress independently, so during the benchmarking phase
the progress bar flashes 5 times as it goes from 0 to 100% in a fraction
of a second, before showing the progress of the remainder.
This looks bad, so report a single progress bar for all the ranges of
blocks copied in a single copy operation.
Already have variables done and length which track progress within each
copied range; and total_done which records amount copied in previous
ranges. Just add total_length to allow overall progress to be reported.
Bug 762367 - Use a single progress bar for the whole of the internal
copy operation
Copying of ntfs is performed using ntfsclone, which writes progress
indication to standard output like this:

Add ntfsclone progress tracker for ntfsclone command. Deliberately
doesn't stop the progress bar. See comment in ntfs::clone_progress()
for the explanation.
Bug 762366 - Add progress bar to NTFS file system specific copy method
The timed progress tracking callback for execution of xfs copy follows
this pattern:
sigc::connection c;
...
c = Glib::signal_timeout().connect( ... sigc::mem_fun( *this, &xfs::copy_progress ) ..., 500 /*ms*/ );
... execute_command( ... );
c.disconnect();
As with output progress tracking callbacks for ext2/3/4 and ntfs file
system specific commands, pass the callback slot and a flag into
execute_command() and connect the timed callback inside. This
simplified the pattern to:
... execute_command( ...|EXEC_PROGRESS_TIMED,
static_cast<TimedSlot>( sigc::mem_fun( *this, &xfs::copy_progress ) ) );
NOTE:
The type of sigc::mem_fun() doesn't allow the compiler to choose between
the two overloaded variants of execute_command() with the fourth
parameter of either (full types without typedefs of StreamSlot and
TimedSlot respectively):
sigc::slot<void, OperationDetail *> stream_progress_slot
sigc::slot<bool, OperationDetail *> timed_progress_slot
Therefore have to cast the result of all callback slots to the relevant
type. Hence:
static_cast<StreamSlot>( sigc::mem_fun( *this, &{CLASS}::{NAME}_progress ) )
static_cast<TimedSlot>( sigc::mem_fun( *this, &xfs::copy_progress ) )

Bug 760709 - Add progress bars to XFS and EXT2/3/4 file system specific
copy methods
For the relevant stream from a file system specific command being
tracked, there were 2 callbacks attached: update_command_output() and
update_command_progress(). When called, update_command_progress() just
emitted signal_progress to call the file system specific progress
tracker callback. Like this:
signal_update.emit() -> update_command_output()
-> update_command_progress()
signal_progress.emit() -> {CLASS}::{NAME}_progress()
Instead just connect the file system specific progress tracker callback
directly to signal_update and bypass the unnecessary
update_command_progress() method and the signal_progress signal. Like
this:
signal_update.emit() -> update_command_output()
-> {CLASS}::{NAME}_progress()
Bug 760709 - Add progress bars to XFS and EXT2/3/4 file system specific
copy methods
All the output progress tracking callbacks for execution of ext2/3/4 and
ntfs file system specific commands followed this pattern:
sigc::connection c = signal_progress.connect( sigc::mem_fun( *this, &ext2::..._progress ) );
bool success = ! execute_command( ... );
c.disconnect();
return success;
Instead, pass the callback slot and a flag into execute_command() and
connect the callback inside. This simplifies the pattern to:
return ! execute_command( ...|EXEC_PROGRESS_STDOUT,
sigc::mem_fun( *this, &ext2::..._progress ) );
Note that as the progress tracking callbacks are only registered against
updates to the relevant stream from the tracked commands they won't be
called when the other stream is updated any more.
Also note that signal_progress is a member of the FileSystem class and
derived objects so lives as long as GParted is running, therefore the
progress tracking callbacks need explicitly disconnecting at the end of
execute_command(). However signal_update is a member of the PipeCapture
class of which the output and error local variables in execute_command()
are types. Therefore there is no need to explicitly disconnect the
signal_update callbacks as they will be destructed along with the
callback slots when they go out of scope at the end of the
execute_command() method.
Bug 760709 - Add progress bars to XFS and EXT2/3/4 file system specific
copy methods
Remove unused members: fraction and progress_text from the
OperationDetail class now that the ProgressBar class has superseded
their use. This also allows removal of timer_global member from the
copy_blocks class. Timer_global was only used to track the elapsed time
copying blocks and allow the remaining time to be estimated and written
into progress_text. The ProgressBar class also does this itself
internally.
Bug 760709 - Add progress bars to XFS and EXT2/3/4 file system specific
copy methods
Most of the file system specific command progress trackers followed this
pattern:
void {CLASS}::{NAME}_progress( OperationDetail *operationdetail )
{
ProgressBar & progressbar = operationdetail->get_progressbar();
// parse output for progress and target values
if ( // have progress and target values )
{
if ( ! progressbar.running() )
progressbar.start( target );
progressbar.update( progress );
operationdetail->signal_update( *operationdetail );
}
else if ( // found progress finished )
{
if ( progressbar.running() )
progressbar.stop();
operationdetail->signal_update( *operationdetail );
}
}
That is a lot of repetition handling progress bar updates and
OperationDetail object update signalling. Remove the need for direct
access to the single ProgressBar object and provide these two
OperationDetail methods instead:
// Start and update in one
run_progressbar( progress, target, optional text_mode );
stop_progressbar();
Now the file system specific command progress trackers can become:
void {CLASS}::{NAME}_progress( OperationDetail *operationdetail )
{
// parse output for progress and target values
if ( // have progress and target values )
{
operationdetail->run_progressbar( progress, target );
}
else if ( // found progress finished )
{
operationdetail->stop_progressbar();
}
}
Make ProgressBar::get_progressbar() a private method to enforce use of
the new way to access the progress bar via the run_progress() and
stop_progressbar() methods. Then make the Dialog_Progress a friend
class to OperationDetail so that the Apply pending operations dialog can
still access the single ProgressBar object for its querying needs.

Note that the copying figures are reported in file system block size
units and the progress information is written to stderr, hence needing
these two previous commits:
Record file system block size where known (#760709)
Call any FS specific progress trackers for stderr updates too (#760709)
Add progress tracking function for e2image command. Also tracks when
the text progress indicator has passed in the output so that the
progress bar can be stopped as well as started when needed.
Bug 760709 - Add progress bars to XFS and EXT2/3/4 file system specific
copy methods
Record the file system block size in the Partition object. Only
implemented for file systems when set_used_sectors() method has already
parsed the value or can easily parse the value from the existing
executed command(s).
Needed for ext2/3/4 copies and moves performed using e2image so that
they can be tracked in bytes by the ProgressBar class as e2image reports
progress in file system block size units.
Bug 760709 - Add progress bars to XFS and EXT2/3/4 file system specific
copy methods
XFS uses a file system specific method to copy the partition using
"xfsdump | xfsrestore". Monitor progress by periodically querying the
destination file system usage and comparing to the source file system
usage. Use 0.5 seconds as the polling interval to match that used by
the internal block copying algorithm.
NOTE:
The number of used blocks in the source and destination file system will
be very close but may not match exactly. I have seen an XFS copy finish
with the following progress text:
1.54 GiB of 1.50 GiB copied (-00:00:02 remaining)
Allow the progress bar to overrun like this as it is informing the user
that it actually copied a little more data and took a little longer than
expected. Needs these two previous commits to correctly round and
format the negative time remaining:
Fix rounding of negative numbers (#760709)
Fix formatting of negative time values (#760709)
Bug 760709 - Add progress bars to XFS and EXT2/3/4 file system specific
copy methods
Adapt the ext2 resize progress tracker to the new ProgressBar class.
Also update the progress function to track when text progress bars have
completely passed in the output so that the progress bar can be stopped
as well as started when needed.
