Bug 1515451 Part 2 - Build update agent in-tree
(deleted), text/x-phabricator-request

Bug 1515451 Part 1 - Update agent scheduled task

Bug 1515451 Part 3 - Install, uninstall update agent
(deleted), text/x-phabricator-request
Details
The update agent is a standalone binary written in Rust, which needs to be (conditionally) integrated into mozilla-central and the Mozilla build system. This also involves: - vendoring additional crates if needed - adding to install - signing the exe
Priority: -- → P2

This is a work-in-progress skeleton of the update agent binary.
It is able to:

  1. Register itself with the Windows Task Scheduler,
    with the "install-self" or "install-self-local-service" commands.
    The task will have a single action, executing the current binary
    with argument "task-action", followed by any arguments given
    on the command line.
    The task will have a single trigger for testing, which will
    run the task once 2 minutes after the install. It can also be run
    on demand.
    Any pre-existing task with the same name will be removed before
    registering the new task.
  2. Uninstall a task ("uninstall" command)
  3. Run a task on demand ("run-on-demand" command)
  4. be run by the task scheduler (recognized by the "task-action"
    command line argument). Currently this writes its arguments to
    C:\ProgramData\task_test.txt for testing.

Backout by malexandru@mozilla.com: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/rev/701e5c7f10df Backed out 3 changesets for causing sm failures in components/updateagent/Cargo.toml

The error occurs because the JS build process explicitly filters out members it doesn't include from the workspace. This seems error-prone, as it requires any addition to the workspace to be mirrored here.

I'll add updateagent to the filter for now, and file a bug to avoid issues like this in the future.
