Add version comparison support to `Microsoft/OSInfo` by SteveL-MSFT · Pull Request #1603 · PowerShell/DSC

SteveL-MSFT · 2026-06-30T02:41:42Z

PR Summary

Add explicit test operation instead of relying on synthetic test
Add support for version to have comparison operators: >, <, =, <=, >= (whitespace is allowed)
Updated osinfo CLI with new test subcommand and refactored the arg parsing in main.rs
Fix how code coverage is collected so report is correct, CC reporting is inconsistent so allowing any CC to pass CI for now. Will continue to work on this.

Fix #1521

Copilot

Pull request overview

This PR adds a native test implementation for the Microsoft/OSInfo DSC resource and extends the version property to support comparison operators during test, enabling minimum/maximum OS version assertions (per #1521).

Changes:

Added a dedicated test operation to the Microsoft/OSInfo resource manifest and a corresponding osinfo test CLI subcommand.
Implemented version constraint parsing/comparison (>, <, =, >=, <=) for the resource’s test operation via version-compare.
Added Pester coverage for version operator behavior in the resource test flow.

File	Description
resources/osinfo/tests/osinfo.tests.ps1	Adds Pester tests validating version operator constraints via `dsc resource test`.
resources/osinfo/src/main.rs	Adds `test` subcommand handling and refactors CLI arg dispatch.
resources/osinfo/osinfo.dsc.resource.json	Declares an explicit `test` capability and documents operator-prefixed `version` constraints; adds `_inDesiredState` to schema.
lib/dsc-lib-osinfo/src/lib.rs	Implements `perform_test`, version constraint parsing, and `_inDesiredState` emission.
lib/dsc-lib-osinfo/Cargo.toml	Adds `version-compare` dependency for OSInfo test/version comparison.
Cargo.toml	Adds `version-compare` to workspace dependencies.
Cargo.lock	Locks `version-compare` dependency version.

Not blocking for this PR but a few general notes on the new functionality:

In the current implementation, the version property only gets an autogenerated JSON Schema as type: [string, null] - adding version requirement syntax can't be represented through the schema without either providing the schema directly (schema_with) or as schemars attributes.

In this implementation, we're parsing and validating the string on demand and only in the test operation.

This is an entirely different version requirement syntax from the SemanticVersionReq in dsc-lib which is okay but worth noting.

We could encapsulate this in a couple of type definitions, which would enable better documentation and validation.

In this case, I don't believe Linux, macOS, or Windows follows semver, hence not trying to convert them to semver

Build-RustProject now uses `cargo llvm-cov build --no-report` when -CodeCoverage is specified, producing instrumented binaries that write profraw data when executed. Previously the -CodeCoverage parameter was accepted but unused — the function always called `cargo build`. When Pester tests run with -CodeCoverage enabled, LLVM_PROFILE_FILE is set via a new Get-LlvmProfileFilePattern helper so that externally invoked instrumented binaries write profraw data to the target directory where `cargo llvm-cov report` can discover it. The CI workflow is updated to combine the build and coverage test steps into a single `./build.ps1 -Clippy -Test -CodeCoverage` invocation, ensuring the instrumented build is used for coverage collection.

cargo-llvm-cov does not have a `build` subcommand. Instead, use `cargo llvm-cov show-env` to retrieve the environment variables (RUSTC_WRAPPER, LLVM_PROFILE_FILE, etc.) and set them in the process. A normal `cargo build` then produces instrumented binaries transparently. Replace Get-LlvmProfileFilePattern with Set-LlvmCovEnvironment / Reset-LlvmCovEnvironment which set and restore all required env vars. The env vars are set before the build so both cargo build and Pester tests benefit from instrumentation, and restored after the LCOV report is generated.

Since Set-LlvmCovEnvironment sets RUSTC_WRAPPER and LLVM_PROFILE_FILE, normal `cargo build` and `cargo test` already produce instrumented binaries and write profraw data. Calling `cargo llvm-cov test` on top of the pre-set env vars caused conflicts and errors. Remove the -CodeCoverage parameter from both Build-RustProject and Test-RustProject — the env vars make instrumentation transparent.

Add a step to the coverage-report job that exits with an error when the coverage percentage on changed Rust code is less than 70%. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Add tests covering edition (Windows-only), codename (Linux-only), bitness, and architecture properties in the OSInfo test operation. Also tests combining multiple properties to verify partial mismatch detection. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

The coverage report showed 0% because the build step excluded Pester tests (-ExcludePesterTests). Since the osinfo test operation code paths are only exercised by Pester tests (not Rust unit tests), the instrumented binaries never recorded any hits for those functions. Change the build step to run the 'resources' Pester test group alongside Rust tests so the instrumented osinfo binary is exercised and profraw data is recorded. Also filter out CARGO_LLVM_COV_SHOW_ENV from Set-LlvmCovEnvironment since propagating that flag causes cargo-llvm-cov to print env vars and exit rather than performing compilation.

The coverage report used github.event.pull_request.base.sha directly with three-dot git diff syntax. After a rebase or when the base branch advances, base.sha points to the current tip of the base branch rather than the common ancestor, causing the diff to include unrelated changes or miss actual PR changes. Fix by computing git merge-base between base and head SHAs in the coverage-report job, then using two-dot diff syntax throughout. This ensures only the PR's own changes are analyzed regardless of rebases or upstream merges. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

The coverage-report job failed to match LCOV source file paths because the matching logic did not handle relative paths from cargo-llvm-cov. Added direct comparison with relative file path and normalized slash handling. Also added verbose diagnostic output when no match is found to aid future debugging.
