#!/usr/bin/env bash
# SilverMetal Linux — reproducibility-failure diagnostic.
#
# Invoked by build-iso-linux.yaml's Compare SHA256 step when two builds
# disagree, but also safe to run by hand against any two ISOs:
#
#   ISO_A=/path/a.iso ISO_B=/path/b.iso linux/build/scripts/diagnose-divergence.sh
#
# Designed to run inside silvermetal-builder where xorriso, squashfs-tools,
# and diffoscope-minimal are present.
#
# Strategy: staged analysis, cheap-to-expensive.
#   1.  sha256 + sizes (always)
#   2.  ISO TOC diff (xorriso): tells us which top-level files differ.
#       Cheap: lists files + sizes, no payload extraction.
#   3.  squashfs file listing diff (unsquashfs -ll): tells us which
#       *inner* files differ. The outer ISO is mostly squashfs payload,
#       so this is usually the layer with all the signal.
#   4.  Targeted diffoscope: only on inner files that actually differ
#       between A and B (and only on ones small enough to be worth
#       inspecting). Avoids the OOM that's predictable when diffoscope
#       recurses into the whole 1 GB ISO at once (run #4273 hit this).
#
# Output goes to REPORT_DIR; build-iso-linux.yaml tails the salient
# bits into the workflow log directly because Gitea 1.25.2 doesn't
# expose upload-artifact@v3 payloads via its API.

set -uo pipefail
# NOT set -e — we want every diagnostic to attempt, even if earlier
# ones fail. Each step `|| true`s itself.

# on). This version is more aggressive: lists every file in the ISO
