kexec-tools has a --reuse-cmdline option which is very convenient
when doing a lot of reboots, add the same to systemctl.
Dedup options, letting the last one wins in case of duplicates,
so that 'systemctl kexec --reuse-cmdline' can be chained many times
without continuosly expanding the cmdline with duplicates from
the boot entry.
Allows appending kernel command line arguments, like
kexec-tool does. This is especially needed for the integration
tests, as mkosi adds a bunch of options that are needed for the
test suite to work, and it breaks without them.
Closes#40883. As described in the issue, it's not "jobs" that are
marked, and also the name is unnecessarilly long.
I think we don't need any compatibility measures here. At least in the
rpm world, package upgrade scripts go through the helper which is part
of the package so the new systemctl and the new helper are upgraded
together.
The verb works only on running service units, so complete on that as the first
parameter, and a local file as the second. The other parameters are inside the
service namespace so we can't autocomplete from the outside, return early.
This fixes a few unrelated issues:
- when ENABLE_MACHINED is false, machinectl is not installed, but _sd_machines
is still used in a few places that want to complete -M and such.
Also, bash completion calls machinectl in various places.
Make missing machinectl mean "no machines" in this case, so
that no error is generated in the callers.
- machinectl list --full would print multiple lines of output per machine,
breaking grep, issue introduced in e2268fa437.
Using --max-addresses=1 would fix the issue, but let's use
--max-addresses=0 because we now can.
- the lists used in various places were slightly different for no good reason.
- don't use a subshell if not necessary.
The code for bash still uses the same combined list of images and running
machines for various commands. The zsh code uses images for start/clone, and
running machines for the rest. Maybe something to fix in the future.
Replaces #25048.
getopt allows non-ambiguous abbreviations, so backwards-compat is maintained, and
people can use --kill-who (or even shorter abbreviations). English is flexible,
so in common speach people would use both forms, even if "whom" is technically
more correct. The advantage of using the longer form in the code is that we
effectively allow both forms, so we stop punishing people who DTGCT¹, but still
allow people to use the spoken form if they prefer.
1. Do the gramatically correct thing
I don't think it makes sense to complete --legend=yes. It is the default, and
it would be only used very rarely (and then it is easy enough to just remove
the '=no' part from the suggested string).
Allow to setup new bind mounts for a service at runtime (via either
DBUS or a new 'systemctl bind' verb) with a new helper that forks into
the unit's mount namespace.
Add a new integration test to cover this.
Useful for zero-downtime addition to services that are running inside
mount namespaces, especially when using RootImage/RootDirectory.
If a service runs with a read-only root, a tmpfs is added on /run
to ensure we can create the airlock directory for incoming mounts
under /run/host/incoming.
As described in #2680, systemctl did ignore inhibitors if it is not
attached to a tty to allow scripts to ignore inhibitors automatically.
This pull request preserves this behavior but allows scripts to
explicit check inhibitors if required.
The new parameter '--check-inhibitors=yes' enables this feature.
The old parameter '-i'/'--ignore-inhibitors' was deprecated in favor
of '--check-inhibitors=no', the default behaviour can be specified
with '--check-inhibitors=auto'.
The new parameter is also described in the documentations and shell
completions found here.
unset-environment is completed with variable names in the environment block.
set-environment the same, but suffixed with "=".
import-environment is completed with variable names in the client environment.
Timestamps for unit start/stop are recorded with microsecond granularity,
but status and show truncate to second granularity by default.
Add a --timestamp=pretty|us|utc option to allow including the microseconds
or to use the UTC TZ to all timestamps printed by systemctl.
Hiding the first column, which may contain bullet circles, with --no-legend
is undocumented and potentially unexpected. On the other hand, not printing
bullet circles with --plain is documented so hiding the column with that
switch is sensible.
The combination "--full --no-legend --no-pager --plain" is appropriate for
automated processing of systemctl output.
Also, while we are at it, beef it up, by adding json-seq support (i.e.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7464). This is particularly useful in
conjunction with jq's --seq switch.
This also unifies __filter_units_by_property() and
__filter_units_by_properties(), and makes completion for 'restart',
'reload' or 'stop' show more candidates.
Template units lacking DefaultInstance cannot be enabled/disabled or
started/restarted.
By adding DefaultInstance the unit can be enabled/disabled but it
still cannot be started/restarted.

Earlier patch added the current word to the performance critical paths.
Here we add it to every place, for consistency sake.
