List what package FILES belong to

This script provides a faster alternative to the `equery b <bin_file>` command for finding which package a specific binary or file (`<bin_file>`) belongs to within a Gentoo Linux system. It significantly improves search performance, making it ideal for efficiently identifying package ownership.

The script utilizes a parallelized search algorithm and provides quick results. For instance, while the standard `equery b` command may take considerable time to execute, this script can complete the same task in a fraction of the time, providing results within seconds.

FILE wbelongstoList what package FILES belong to
#!/bin/bash
# Author: wuseman 
# Same as `equery b <bin_file>` but 98% faster 
# `equery b ffprobe` = 12.912s
# `wbelongsto ffprobe = 0.078s

find_package() {
  target_file="$1"
  pkg_dirs=$(rg -l "$target_file" /var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS)
  for pkg_dir in $pkg_dirs; do
    pkg_name=$(basename $(dirname "$pkg_dir"))
    actual_path=$(rg "$target_file" "$pkg_dir" | awk '{print $2}' | grep -E "^(/usr/bin/|/bin/|/usr/sbin/|/sbin/)")
    
    if [ -n "$actual_path" ]; then
      echo -e " * Searching for \e[92m$target_file\e[0m ..."
      echo -e "\e[92m\e[1m$pkg_name\e[0m (\e[97m\e[1m$actual_path\e[0m)"
      return
    fi
  done
  echo -e " * Searching for \e[92m$target_file\e[0m ..."
  echo -e "\e[91m\e[1mFile does not belong to any package\e[0m"
}

export -f find_package

printf "%s\n" "$@" | xargs -P 4 -I {} bash -c 'find_package "$@"' _ {}

Gentoo Installation

Setting Up /etc/fstab

This script is designed for use in an automated Gentoo Linux installation process, specifically for setting up the `/etc/fstab` file. It automatically detects the root and boot partitions and adds their UUIDs to the `/etc/fstab` configuration. Additionally, it checks for the presence of a swap partition and includes it in the `/etc/fstab` file if found.

FILE auto_fstab_setup.shAutomated Gentoo /etc/fstab Setup Script
#!/bin/bash

 # Detect and set up the root and boot partitions in /etc/fstab
 rootDevice=$(df / | awk 'NR==2 {print $1}')
 rootUUID=$(blkid -o value -s UUID "$rootDevice")
 swapUUID=$(awk '$2 == "swap" {print $1}' /etc/fstab)
 bootUUID=$(lsblk -no UUID /dev/sda2 | awk '{print $1}')

 cat << EOF > /etc/fstab
 UUID=${bootUUID}                 /boot           vfat            noauto,noatime  1 2
 UUID=${rootUUID}                 /               ext4            noatime         0 1
 EOF

 if [ -n "$swapUUID" ]; then
     echo "UUID=${swapUUID}                 none            swap            sw              0 0" >> /etc/fstab
 fi

Setting Up /etc/default/grub

This script is designed to configure the GRUB bootloader for Gentoo Linux durning my auto install of gentoo It sets various GRUB parameters, including the timeout, root device, and kernel command line options.

FILE grub_config.shGentoo GRUB Configuration
#!/bin/bash

# Update GRUB configuration in /etc/default/grub
cat << GRUB_EOF > /etc/default/grub
#GRUB_DEFAULT=0
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Gentoo Linux"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="crypt_root=UUID=$cryptUUID real_root=UUID=$realRootUUID resume=UUID=$swapUUID root_keydev=UUID=$rootKeyDevUUID root_key=keyFiles/elitedesk-rootfs_key-latest-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).gpg rootfstype=ext4 key_timeout=0 dolvm quiet"
#GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080x32
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=false
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=false
GRUB_EOF

Setting Up Drives and Flags for Partitions

This section outlines the steps to set up drives and configure flags for partitions during the Gentoo Linux installation process. These commands are essential for preparing the storage devices and partitions for your system.

FILE drive_partition_setup.shDrive and Partition Setup Script
#!/bin/bash

# Inspect the drive and print its information
parted -a optimal $drive -s "print"

# Create a GPT label for the drive
parted -a optimal $drive -s "mklabel gpt"

# Create partitions with specific sizes
parted -a optimal $drive -s "mkpart 1 1 2"
parted -a optimal $drive -s "mkpart 2 2 2000"
parted -a optimal $drive -s "mkpart 3 2000 95%"

# Set flags for partitions
parted -a optimal $drive -s "set 1 bios_grub on"
parted -a optimal $drive -s "set 2 boot on"

# Print the drive and partition information again
parted -a optimal $drive -s "print"

These commands are used to inspect the drive, create a GPT label, create partitions, and set flags such as `bios_grub` and `boot` to ensure a proper Gentoo Linux installation.

Additionally, the script generates encryption keys and formats a partition for encryption, ensuring data security.

Encrypt and Store Root Filesystem Key

These commands generate encryption keys, create an encrypted partition, open it for use, and back up the LUKS header for added data protection.

FILE encrypt_store_key.shEncrypt and Store Root Filesystem Key Script
#!/bin/bash

export GPG_TTY=$(tty)

KEY_FOLDER=""

HOSTNAME=$(hostname)

CIPHER="twofish-xts-plain64"
CIPHER_ALGO="TWOFISH"
HASH="sha512"
KEY_SIZE="512"

USB_DEVICE="/path/to/usb/device"
DEVICE_NAME=$(basename "$USB_DEVICE")

if [ -z "$HOSTNAME" ]; then
  echo "Hostname is empty. Hostname is required."
  exit 1
fi

if [ -z "$(ls -A "$KEY_FOLDER")" ]; then
  echo "Folder is empty. Folder required."
  exit 1
fi


if ! grep -qs "$USB_DEVICE" /proc/mounts; then
  echo "USB device is not mounted. It should be mounted at $USB_DEVICE."
  exit 1
fi

if [ ! -d "/sys/block/$DEVICE_NAME" ]; then
  echo "Device $DEVICE_NAME does not exist as a physical device."
  exit 1
fi

if [[ "$DEVICE_NAME" =~ ^sd[a-z]+$ ]]; then
  echo "Device $DEVICE_NAME is an external device."
else
  echo "Device $DEVICE_NAME is not an external device."
  exit 1
fi

if ! gpg --version | grep -q "$CIPHER_ALGO"; then
  echo "GPG does not support the cipher algorithm: $CIPHER_ALGO."
  exit 1
fi

if ! cryptsetup benchmark | grep -q "$CIPHER"; then
  echo "Cryptsetup does not support the cipher: $CIPHER."
  exit 1
fi

KEY_FILE="$KEY_FOLDER/$HOSTNAME-rootfs_key-latest-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).gpg"
HEADER_FILE="$KEY_FOLDER/$HOSTNAME-rootfs_header-$(date +%Y-%m-%d).img"

dd if=/dev/urandom bs=8388607 count=1 \
    | gpg --symmetric --cipher-algo "$CIPHER_ALGO" --output "$KEY_FILE"

gpg --decrypt "$KEY_FILE" \
    | cryptsetup --cipher "$CIPHER" --hash "$HASH" --key-size "$KEY_SIZE" \
    --iter-time 7500 --type luks2 --key-file - luksFormat "/dev/$DEVICE_NAME"

gpg --decrypt "$KEY_FILE" \
    | cryptsetup -d - luksOpen "/dev/$DEVICE_NAME" rootfs

cryptsetup luksHeaderBackup "/dev/$DEVICE_NAME" --header-backup-file "$HEADER_FILE"

This script generates, encrypts, and stores the root filesystem encryption key, ensuring secure data encryption during the installation process.

Mounting System Directories

In this section, we'll mount essential system directories to the Gentoo Linux installation root directory (`/mnt/gentoo`) in preparation for the installation process.

FILE mount_system_dirs.shMount System Directories
#!/bin/bash

MOUNT_POINT="/mnt/gentoo"
DIRECTORIES=("dev" "proc" "sys" "tmp" "run")

for dir in "${DIRECTORIES[@]}"; do
    if ! mountpoint -q "$MOUNT_POINT/$dir"; then
        case $dir in
            "dev" |} "sys" | "tmp")
                mount --rbind "/$dir" "$MOUNT_POINT/$dir"
                ;;
            "proc")
                mount -t proc /proc "$MOUNT_POINT/proc"
                ;;
            "run")
                mount --bind /run "$MOUNT_POINT/run"
                ;;
        esac
        sleep 0.5
    fi
done

These commands are used to mount the necessary system directories to the Gentoo Linux installation root directory, ensuring the environment is properly set up for the installation process.

Qemu Emulation

Chroot

  • Ensure qemu-arm-static binary is available
  • Extract the Router Firmware firmware (specifically the SquashFS filesystem you want to chroot into) to a known directory.
FILE chroot_into_arm.shGuide to Chrooting into Router Firmware
#!/bin/bash

# Define your firmware root directory for easier reference
FIRMWARE_ROOT="<some_extracted_firmware>.squashfs-root"

# Mount necessary filesystems
mount -t proc proc $FIRMWARE_ROOT/proc
mount --rbind /sys $FIRMWARE_ROOT/sys
mount --rbind /dev $FIRMWARE_ROOT/dev

# Copy the QEMU static binary for ARM to the root of the firmware's filesystem
cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static $FIRMWARE_ROOT/usr/bin/

# Register the ARM binary format with the kernel:
echo ':qemu-arm:M::\x7fELF\x01\x01\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x28\x00:\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\x00\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xfe\xff\xff\xff:/usr/bin/qemu-arm-static:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register

# Chroot into the firmware:
chroot $FIRMWARE_ROOT /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static /bin/sh


Unmount

Warning
Always remember to unmount the proc, sys, and dev directories after you're done working in the chroot environment to clean up.
root #umount $FIRMWARE_ROOT/{proc,sys,dev}
