This changes the two remaining instances where we use insecure HTTPS to
use standard HTTPS certificate verification.
When we introduced these things, almost a decade ago, HTTPS certificates
were expensive and annoying to get, much of the web was still HTTP, and
many devices seemed to not have up-to-date CA bundles.
Nowadays _all_ of the web is HTTPS and I'm skeptical that any device can
work well without understanding LetsEncrypt certificates in particular.
Our current discovery servers use hardcoded certificates which has
several issues:
- Not great for security if it leaks as there is no way to rotate it
- Not great for infrastructure flexibility as we can't use many load
balancer or TLS termination services
- The certificate is a very oddball ECDSA-SHA384 type certificate which
has higher CPU cost than a more regular certificate, which has real
effects on our infrastructure
Using normal TLS certificates here improves these things.
I expect there will be some very few devices out there for which this
doesn't work. For the foreseeable future they can simply change the
config to use the old URLs and parameters -- it'll be years before we
can retire those entirely.
For the upgrade client this simply seems like better hygiene. While our
releases are signed anyway, protecting the metadata exchange is _better_
and, again, I doubt many clients will fail this today.
This adds a header with the operating system version, verbatim in
whatever format the operating system reports it, to the upgrade check.
The intention is that the upgrade server can use this information to
filter out (or maybe just mark) potentially unsupported upgrades.
### Purpose
This PR contains the set of changes needed to make Syncthing work on iOS
for [my iOS app for
Syncthing](https://github.com/pixelspark/sushitrain).
Most changes originate from [the Mobius Sync
fork](http://github.com/MobiusSync/syncthing/tree/ios). I have removed
the changes from their fork that are not strictly needed for my app
(i.e. their changes to the GUI and command line utilities, for instance)
and squashed it all in a single commit.
In summary, the changes are:
* Resolve non-absolute paths to the 'Documents' folder (basically the
only one an app can/should write user data to by default on iOS)
* Tweaking of build flags/conditions for iOS (i.e. determine which
basicfs_watch, ignoreresult variant to build for iOS)
* Disable upgrade mechanism on iOS
* Make `RequestGlobal` and `PullerProgress` public symbols
* Expose syncthing.app's Model instance (app.M)
* Add no-op stub for SetLowPriority on iOS
I would very much appreciate these changes to be (eventually) merged to
mainline syncthing, as this would allow my iOS app to track the mainline
source code directly and removes the need (for me at least) for
maintaining a separate fork. Perhaps the Mobius folks can also benefit
from this (although as noted this branch does not contain their changes
to e.g. the GUI).
### Testing
This branch has been tested with the iOS app and appears to work fine.
The full set of MobiusSync changes has been used before with success.
### Screenshots
n/a
### Documentation
There should be no visible changes for users due to this set of changes.

- In the few places where we wrap errors, use the new Go 1.13 "%w"
construction instead of %s or %v.
- Where we create errors with constant strings, consistently use
errors.New and not fmt.Errorf.
- Remove capitalization from errors in the few places where we had that.
New signature is the HMAC of archive name (which includes the release
version and architecture) plus the contents of the binary. This is
expected in a new file "release.sig" which may be present in a
subdirectory. The new release tools put this in [.]metadata/release.sig.
GitHub-Pull-Request: https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/pull/3043
This implements a new debug/trace infrastructure based on a slightly
hacked up logger. Instead of the traditional "if debug { ... }" I've
rewritten the logger to have no-op Debugln and Debugf, unless debugging
has been enabled for a given "facility". The "facility" is just a
string, typically a package name.
This will be slightly slower than before; but not that much as it's
mostly a function call that returns immediately. For the cases where it
matters (the Debugln takes a hex.Dump() of something for example, and
it's not in a very occasional "if err != nil" branch) there is an
l.ShouldDebug(facility) that is fast enough to be used like the old "if
debug".
The point of all this is that we can now toggle debugging for the
various packages on and off at runtime. There's a new method
/rest/system/debug that can be POSTed a set of facilities to enable and
disable debug for, or GET from to get a list of facilities with
descriptions and their current debug status.
Similarly a /rest/system/log?since=... can grab the latest log entries,
up to 250 of them (hardcoded constant in main.go) plus the initial few.
Not implemented in this commit (but planned) is a simple debug GUI
available on /debug that shows the current log in an easily pasteable
format and has checkboxes to enable the various debug facilities.
The debug instructions to a user then becomes "visit this URL, check
these boxes, reproduce your problem, copy and paste the log". The actual
log viewer on the hypothetical /debug URL can poll regularly for new log
entries and this bypass the 250 line limit.
The existing STTRACE=foo variable is still obeyed and just sets the
start state of the system.
