fuse-pipe compiles fuse-backend-rs from the sibling path dependency
(fuse-pipe/Cargo.toml points at ../../fuse-backend-rs), so the FUSE code in
any binary is whatever that directory holds, and nothing recorded which tree
that was. Issue #807: two local fuse-backend-rs checkouts drifted 19 commits
apart, CI's pinned master had neither, and test_rootless_map_nonroot_reader
failed deterministically on one box against a main that was green in CI.

New Makefile target dep-provenance prints one line per sibling dependency,
git describe --always --dirty of the checkout or MISSING when there is no
checkout, and build now depends on it, so every make build log answers
"which FUSE code did this compile against". The same ../ relative path
resolves in the container legs too (/workspace/fcvm next to
/workspace/fuse-backend-rs and /workspace/fuser).

tests/test_dep_provenance.rs pins the hook structurally (same convention as
test_ci_workflow_coverage.rs and MakefileBenchGraph) and proves both recipe
branches against a scratch git repo, including the -dirty suffix.

Test evidence, red first against the unhooked Makefile:

test build_recipe_carries_the_dep_provenance_hook ... FAILED
prereqs: ["cargo-target-link"]
test dep_provenance_reports_describe_and_missing ... FAILED
make: *** No rule to make target 'dep-provenance'. Stop.

Green with the hook, and red again with the Makefile change stashed:

test result: ok. 2 passed; 0 failed (cargo test --test test_dep_provenance)
test result: FAILED. 0 passed; 2 failed (fix stashed)

On this box: make dep-provenance prints
fuse-backend-rs: v0.12.0-47-gf42317d-dirty and fuser: MISSING, which is the
exact answer issue #807 had to reconstruct by hand. Neighbors still green:
test_documented_make_targets 9 passed, test_ci_workflow_coverage 22 passed,
MakefileBenchGraph 11 passed. cargo fmt -p fcvm --check and
cargo clippy --test test_dep_provenance -- -D warnings clean.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Build Reliability
    • Builds now verify that key FUSE dependency sources remain unchanged throughout compilation.
    • Build processes report the exact dependency revisions used, including tracked local modifications.
    • Builds fail when dependency sources change during compilation, helping prevent inconsistent artifacts.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved host-tool builds by ensuring required output directories exist before compilation.
  • Tests
    • Added comprehensive coverage for dependency provenance reporting and build consistency checks.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Makefile now reports fuse-backend-rs and fuser provenance. Build targets compare provenance before and after compilation. Tests cover output formats, fallback states, Makefile wiring, dirty changes, and build-time mutations.

Changes

Dependency provenance verification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Provenance reporting
Makefile, tests/test_dep_provenance.rs

…targets

Four review findings on #866, each closed by a test watched failing first.

build-host-tools compiles the same FUSE-dependent packages as build and is
the target .github/workflows/kernels.yml invokes, but only build carried the
dep-provenance prerequisite. Both build targets now depend on it. Red:
build_recipes_carry_the_dep_provenance_hook failed with
prereqs: ["cargo-target-link"].

fuser is a git dependency (fuse-pipe/Cargo.toml:43) pinned by Cargo.lock, so
describing the sibling ../fuser checkout reported code cargo never compiles.
The recipe now prints Cargo.lock's resolved source string, which carries the
exact revision after '#', and MISSING when the lock has no sourced fuser
entry, including the path-dep shape where the parser must not borrow the
next package's source. Red:
dep_provenance_reports_describe_lock_source_and_missing failed with
left: "MISSING", right: "git+https://github.com/example/fuser.git?...".

A dirty fuse-backend-rs tree printed the same -dirty line for every possible
local edit against one commit. When dirty, the line now appends the first
12 hex of sha256 over `git diff HEAD`. Untracked files are excluded from the
digest: describe --dirty does not flag them, and an untracked file cannot
reach the build unless a tracked file references it, which dirties the tree.
Red: 'a dirty checkout must report `9d91203-dirty+<digest>` ... prints the
same line: 9d91203-dirty'. The test proves two different dirty contents
produce two different lines.

The provenance was captured before cargo ran and nothing checked it still
held afterwards, so a sibling checkout updated mid-build would be logged as
its pre-build state. Both build recipes now snapshot the provenance before
their cargo commands, re-derive it after, and fail on a difference. Red:
mid_build_dependency_change_fails_the_build executes the real
build-host-tools recipe with a stub cargo wrapper that edits the sibling
tree; against the unguarded Makefile it failed with 'build-host-tools
succeeded although the sibling checkout changed mid-build', with the guard
the build fails with 'ERROR: dependency provenance changed during the
build', and a non-mutating control run passes.

Green: cargo test --test test_dep_provenance, 3 passed; stashing the
Makefile change alone turns all three red again. Neighbors:
test_documented_make_targets 9 passed, test_ci_workflow_coverage 22 passed,
MakefileBenchGraph 11 passed. cargo clippy --all-targets -p fcvm --
-D warnings and cargo fmt -p fcvm --check clean. Real output on this box:
fuse-backend-rs: v0.12.0-47-gf42317d-dirty+de202a9fa480, fuser:
git+https://github.com/ejc3/fuser.git?branch=remap-file-range-on-clone-fd#283f574504d3954cda1157d8468820e76bffab4f
which matches Cargo.lock:848 exactly.

468-495: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Consider extracting the duplicated provenance guard into a define block.

The before/after capture and the failure branch are byte-identical in build and build-host-tools. The structural test asserts the exact marker text in both recipes, so any future edit must stay synchronized in two places. A canned recipe keeps one copy.

Note that this changes the recipe text the marker assertions in tests/test_dep_provenance.rs read, so keep the marker list aligned if you apply it.

NOT-A-DEFECT: the review bodies are summaries and reviewer auto-replies; all four inline findings are dispositioned in their threads, RED-VERIFIED in be2fb3d: build-host-tools carries the provenance hook, fuser provenance comes from Cargo.lock's resolved source (the sibling checkout is not what Cargo compiles), dirty trees append a content digest, and a mid-build sibling change now fails the recipe.
