If you hit Ctr-C while pulling an image files and directories get left in /var/tmp. By adding "containers_images" prefix, we can use systemd tmpfiles handling to remove them on reboot safely.

Help to make containers/podman#19201 safer.

Idea SGTM

Build needs massaging:

oci/archive/oci_transport.go:163:40: cannot use dir (variable of type *os.File) as string value in argument to ocilayout.NewReference
oci/archive/oci_transport.go:168:45: cannot use dir (variable of type *os.File) as string value in struct literal

Thanks, this makes sense to me.


Separately, it could be interesting for Podman or callers to turn Ctrl-C into a context cancellation, to trigger a correct cleanup. OTOH that would be a major change… and IIRC the typical io.Copy (not involving HTTP) is not cancellable, so slow on-disk operations would not stop immediately.
