The Change_UUID_Warning vectors were fat16 and ntfs class member
variables, but are only ever accessed in the get_custom_text() method.
Make them local variables in get_custom_text() instead. Static so that
references to them can be returned.
I completely missed that when reading XFS file system size and usage it
was using the '-r' read-only flag to xfs_db because it was at the end of
the string on the following line of code. Move it to the start of the
xfs_db command line, like it is when reading the file system label.
Same case as for FileSystem Label dialog before; the Partition Name
dialog only has a single line of just 2 widgets. Therefore switch to a
simpler horizontal box widget to lay them out.
The FileSystem Label dialog only has a single line of just 2 widgets; a
text label and entry box widget. There is no need to use a multi-line
capable table to hold this. Switch to a simpler horizontal box widget.
Note that this change is not related to porting to Gtk 3 and stopping
using deprecated APIs because both HBox [1] and Table [2] are deprecated
in Gtk 3.2 and Gtk 3.4 and replaced by Box with horizontal orientation
and Grid respectively.

Replace return by value of const strings from

implies duplication of those strings. Return a reference to constant
strings instead.

Bug 796293 - Fix null pointer check accidentally disabled
Replace the insert() method (which reports an error when inserting a
password with a key which already exists) with the store() method which
replaces or inserts the password depending on whether the key already
exists or not respectively. There is also an optimisation that nothing
is changed if the password to be replaced is the same as the one already
stored. The code in Win_GParted::open_encrypted_partition() is
simplified now it doesn't have to implement this pattern of behaviour
itself.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Reports generic GParted error "Failed to open LUKS encryption" on any
failure unlocking the partition. Choosing not to display cryptsetup
reported errors because those messages and their translations are not
under GParted control.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
The underlying C coded Gtk Entry widget is careful to zero memory after
use, allowing the widget to be safely used for password entry [1].
However the C++ method Gtk::Entry::get_text() just takes the underlying
C string from the Gtk Entry widget and copies it when constructing a
Glib::ustring for the return value [2].
So directly use the Gtk/C API to get the C string instead.
[1] https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtkentrybuffer.c?h=3.22.28#n92
See function trash_area() which zeros memory and its use in
gtk_entry_buffer_normal_insert_text(),
gtk_entry_buffer_normal_delete_text() and
gtk_entry_buffer_finalize().

_WRAP_METHOD(Glib::ustring get_text() const, gtk_entry_get_text)
https://git.gnome.org/browse/glibmm/tree/docs/internal/using_gmmproc.txt?h=2.46.1#n53
_WRAP_METHOD(Glib::ustring METHOD const, FUNC) is processed to:
Glib::ustring METHOD() const
{
return Glib::convert_const_gchar_ptr_to_ustring(
FUNC(const_cast<GtkEntry*>(gobj())));
}
https://git.gnome.org/browse/glibmm/tree/glib/glibmm/utility.h?h=2.46.1#n82
Glib::ustring convert_const_gchar_ptr_to_ustring(const char* str)
{
return (str) ? Glib::ustring(str) : Glib::ustring();
}
So Gtk::Entry::get_text() calls Glib::ustring() constructor which
copies the C string to create the Glib::ustring object returned.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
To keep password dialog open, just keep running it in a loop performing
LUKS mapping unlock attempts with the entered passphrase until it
succeeds or the dialog is cancelled or closed. This is the same model
that is already used for the File Support System dialog and how the
[Rescan For Supported Actions] button is implemented.
Also any error from attempting to open the LUKS mapping is no longer
displayed in a separate error dialog or at all. Will add some sort of
error reporting into the password entry dialog in a following commit.
Creates new method Win_GParted::open_encrypted_partition() which handles
the non UI parts of attempting to open an encrypted partition. Running
"cryptsetup luksOpen" and updating the stored passphrase as needed.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Initial addition of a password entry dialog. Looks like:
+------------------------------------------------+
| LUKS Passphrase /dev/sdb1 |
+------------------------------------------------+
| Enter LUKS passphrase to open /dev/sdb1 |
| Passphrase: [ ] |
| |
| [ Cancel ] [ Unlock ] |
+------------------------------------------------+
A standard Gtk Dialog is used to accept the password once, with any
errors displayed in a separate error dialog afterwards. This is poor UI
design. A password dialog should remain open for all authentication
attempts and only close when successful or the dialog is cancelled or
closed. This UI design issue will be improved in following commits.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Implement Close Encryption partition menu item.
The Open Encryption action is not yet implemented and instead reports an
error detailing the open encryption command. A dialog needs to be
written to accept the password entry and pass it to the open encryption
command.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Add new item to the partition menu to allow the user to open and close
the LUKS mapping. However for now the menu item is always disabled and
there is no implementation behind it to actually open or close the LUKS
mapping. Fragment of the partition menu is now:
...
Format to >
-----------------
Open Encryption <- New menu item
Mount
-----------------
Name Partition
...
Has to be two separate menu items to clearly represent to the user that
LUKS mappings and file system mounting are two separate busy states.
And also in the case of an open but unmounted file system to offer both
actions; close encryption and mount file system.
The text of the menu item automatically changes similarly to how it does
for the Mount/Unmount, Swapon/Swapoff, Activate/Deactivate item
depending on the state of the LUKS mapping. For open LUKS mappings it
will show "Close Encryption" and for all other cases (closed LUKS
mapping or partition is not encrypted) "Open Encryption". Again similar
to how the default of "Mount" is shown for unallocated and unknown
partitions.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
In preparation for adding the ability to toggle the encryption busy
state (open/close the encryption volume), rename existing members to
reflect that they are related to changing the file system state. (Swap
and LVM2 Physical Volumes are handled as file systems by GParted).
class Win_GParted renaming:
MENU_TOGGLE_BUSY -> MENU_TOGGLE_FS_BUSY
allow_toggle_busy_state() -> allow_toggle_fs_busy_state()
toggle_busy_state() -> toggle_fs_busy_state()
check_toggle_busy_allowed() -> check_toggle_fs_busy_allowed()
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Replace echoing "dm" into jfs_debugfs via a shell command to directly
writing "dm" to the input of the jfs_debug command. One less use of the
shell.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
As discussed in "LUKS password handling, threats and preventative
measures" [1] GParted must be able to pass LUKS passphrases to
cryptsetup via standard input to avoid having to write passwords to the
file system and deal with additional security requirements. Therefore
add a way to write input into created child processes. For small
amounts of input, writing up to the pipe buffer capacity won't block
[2]. This is 64K on versions of Linux in any currently supported
distributions.
[1] LUKS password handling, threats and preventative measures
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627701#c56
GParted must not become a password manage so it must never save
LUKS passwords to disk across separate invocations of GParted.
...
GParted should avoid writing a temporary file containing the LUKS
password as it introduces extra complexity with trying to safely
handle and erase file content. Instead GParted must
programmatically pass the LUKS password via standard input to the
cryptsetup command.
[2] pipe(7) manual page:
Pipe capacity
A pipe has a limited capacity. If the pipe is full, then a
write(2) will block or fail, depending on whether the O_NONBLOCK
flag is set (see below). ...
In Linux versions before 2.6.11, the capacity of a pipe was the
same as the system page size (e.g., 4096 bytes on i386). Since
Linux 2.6.11, the pipe capacity is 65536 bytes.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Use private access into the PasswordRAMStore class to directly obtain
the address of the locked memory, rather than inferring it from the
address of the first stored password. This simplifies
PasswordRAMStoreTest::SetUpTestCase() and avoids encoding most of the
implementation knowledge that the first password will be stored at the
start of the protected memory.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Test that all passwords are zeroed by PasswordRAMStore::erase_all(), the
same method as used in the PasswordRAMStore destructor.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Move zeroing of the locked memory into separate PWStore::erase_all()
private method. Then use this in the PWStore destructor. This is so
that zeroing of all passwords can be unit tested independently of
destructing the singleton PWStore object.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
As noted in comments:
1) This is white box testing because it uses implementation knowledge
to look through the API to the internals of the password store.
2) It is not currently possible to test that the passwords are zeroed
when the store is destroyed.
However zeroing of memory is being tested when individual passwords
are erased.
Bug 795617 - Implement opening and closing of LUKS mappings
Application level requirements for secure password management were set
out in "LUKS password handling, threats and preventative measures" [1].
The requirements are:
1) Passwords are stored in RAM and are not allowed to be paged to swap.
(However hibernating with GParted still running will write all of RAM
to swap).
2) Passwords are wiped from RAM when no longer needed. When each
password is no longer needed and when GParted closes.
3) Passwords are referenced by unique key. Recommend using LUKS UUIDs
as the unique key.
(Each LUKS password should only ever need to be entered once for each
execution of GParted. Therefore the passwords can't be stored in any
of the existing data structures such as Partitions or LUKS_Info cache
because all of these are cleared and reloaded on each device
refresh).
There seems to be two possible implementation methods: use an existing
library to provide secure memory handling, or write our own.
Libgcrypt [2] and libsodium [3] cryptographic libraries both provide
secure memory handling. (Secure memory is quite simple really, some
virtual memory locked into RAM which is zeroed when no longer needed).
Linking to an encryption library just to provide secure memory seems
like using a sledge hammer to crack a nut. Also because of requirement
(3) above a module is needed to "own" the pointers to the passwords in
the secure memory. Managing the secure memory ourselves is probably no
more code that that needed to interface to libgcrypt. Therefore handle
the secure memory ourselves.
So far the module is only compiled. It is not used anywhere in GParted.

Found that older but still supported distributions Debian 8 and
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS don't have directory /dev/disk/by-path/. This is used
by the BlockSpecial unit test as a source of a symbolic link to a block
special device.
This causes the unit test to fail like this:
$ cd tests
$ ./test_BlockSpecial
...

Which in turn causes make check and make distcheck to fail.

E2fsprogs 1.41.0 (from 10 July 2008) first included ext4 support [1].
As RHEL / CentOS 6 is now the oldest supported distribution, and that
includes e2fsprogs 1.41.12 (from 22 August 2009) [2] all the e2fs
programs support ext4 so it is no longer necessary to also depend on
finding mkfs.ext4 before enabling each supported capability for ext4.
This makes the ext2::get_filesystem_support() look like all the others
in which each supported capability only depends on the presence of the
relevant file system specific command.

Bug 794253 - Desupport RHEL / CentOS 5 and raise minimum required
versions to glibmm 2.14.0 and gtkmm 2.16.0
PATCHSET OVERVIEW:
As of 31 March 2017 RHEL / CentOS 5 reached the end of their support
[1][2]. Therefore remove code which supports them. This makes RHEL /
CentOS 6 the oldest supported distribution. So the minimum required
versions of glibmm and gtkmm can be increased dropping some autoconf
checks and conditional code supporting older versions of these
libraries. This will undo the bulk of these these previous bug fixes:
* GParted 0.21.0
Bug 738706 - Add support for ext4 on RHEL/CentOS 5.x
* GParted 0.16.1
Bug 695279 - Fix GParted doesn't compile on RHEL / CentOS 5.9

Mkfs_cmd member variable is being kept as a convenience so that it is
created once rather than on each use. Also note that as it is a
Glib::ustring type object, it's constructor will be called which will
initialise it to the empty string so it doesn't need initialising to the
empty string in the initialiser list of the ext2() constructor itself.
