      Add metadata-collect dracut module · 025a9bea
      Leo Le Bouter authored
      To install the dracut module on your current system, change into
      the dracut.module directory then run:
      
      ```
      $ ERP5_USER="user" ERP5_PASS="pass" \
        ERP5_BASE_URL="https://example.local/erp5" \
        make
      $ sudo make install
      ```
      
      To uninstall:
      
      ```
      $ sudo make uninstall
      ```
      
      Then in a dracut.conf file, to include it you can add:
      
      ```
      add_dracutmodules="metadata-collect"
      ```
      
      You will also need to append "ip=dhcp rd.neednet=1" to the
      kernel_cmdline directive inside the dracut.conf so that the
      initramfs requests networking for the agent to upload results.
      
      Make sure the dracut network modules are installed, on Debian
      that is the dracut-network package.
      You can otherwise check their presence using:
      
      ```
      $ dracut --list-modules | grep network
      ```
      
      There you should see a few modules.

      Use rustls instead of openssl · 4d94b540
      Leo Le Bouter authored
      With rustls it's easier to embed the root CA certificates inside
      the compiled binary itself using the webpki-roots crate. We need to
      do this because it's the easiest way of getting TLS certificate
      validation working inside the initramfs where /etc/ssl/certs or
      else does not exist.

      Rewrite in Rust to obtain standalone static binary · d2277063
      Leo Le Bouter authored
      In contradiction with Jean-Paul's guidelines on not using Rust due
      to lack of knowledge about it inside Nexedi, I am using it here
      because it is the fastest way for me to get a working standalone
      static binary, I know that language best. Considering we must be
      getting results ASAP, this is the best strategy for me. We may
      later rewrite it in another language if necessary.
      
      A shell script is included to build the static binary, you need
      to install rustup to get rust for musl, an alternative libc that
      allows to create real static binaries that embed libc itself too.
      
      Rustup can be found at: https://rustup.rs/
      
      You can get a musl toolchain with:
        $ rustup target add x86_64-unknown-linux-musl
      
      The acl library is being downloaded and built as a static library
      by the script, and the rust build system will also build a vendored
      copy of openssl as a static library.
      
      Parallel hashing is done a bit differently in that Rust version,
      only files contained in the currently processed directories will be
      hashed in parallel. If there is a single big file in a directory
      hashing will be stuck on that file until it's done and it goes onto
      the next directory. To clarify, each file is only hashed on a
      single thread, the Python version also does this, it just keeps the
      number of files being hashed in parallel to a constant number as
      long as there is more files to process, this version will only hash
      with one thread per file in the currently processed directory. It
      was done that way for sake of simplicity but we can implement an
      offload threadpool to mimick what was done in Python later on.
