lzwind 02b2eb9ede man: clarify that --fido2-with-user-presence= may not be supported (#43266)
Reword the note for --fido2-with-user-presence= to make it clear that the
setting has no effect if the token does not support the up feature, or does
not allow the user presence requirement to be enabled or disabled for the
requested operation. Drop the surrounding parentheses and the spurious
"in other contexts" qualifier.

Apply the same rewording to the sibling --fido2-with-client-pin= and
--fido2-with-user-verification= options so the three parallel FIDO2
entries stay consistent.

Fixes #23632.

Yu Watanabe 0f8c9182f3 pcrlock: error out if requested PCR was dropped (#43260)
- --strict=/--full moved to the OPTION_LONG() parser framework that
replaced getopt in the meantime
- the is-supported commit is dropped, main grew that verb independently.
That also gets rid of the early tpm2_support() gate that broke CI back
then, and TEST-70-TPM2 runs with a software TPM these days anyway
- special_glyph() → glyph() renames
- the log table PCR filter needs an EVENT_LOG_RECORD_IS_PCR() guard now
that the event log has NV-index records

Daan De Meyer 2dd07068a3 vmspawn: apply --grow-image= to the ephemeral copy
Combining --ephemeral with --grow-image= truncated the file passed to
--image= to the requested size before the VM was started, so a mode whose
entire purpose is to leave the original image untouched modified it on
disk.

Skip growing the original image when running ephemeral, and instead create
the qcow2 overlay with the requested virtual size, so the guest sees the
larger disk while the base image stays read-only. As only the overlay is
sized in that case, the base image format no longer matters, so allow
--grow-image= together with qcow2 images when running ephemeral. The round
up to a multiple of 4096 moves to option parsing so both paths apply the
same value.

The vmspawn drive test grows an ephemeral VM and checks that the image
passed to --image= keeps its size, and that the overlay QEMU runs off is
created at the requested one.

Liu Zheng 205a83833e repart: document implied CopyFiles= denylists
systemd-repart implicitly excludes the contents of APIVFS and temporary
directories (/proc, /sys, /dev, /tmp, /run, /var/tmp) when copying files
via CopyFiles=. When populating a root partition, the contents below the
mount points of other partitions in the image (e.g. /boot, /efi for an
esp partition) are excluded as well, so that data belonging to a separate
partition is not duplicated into the root file system.

Neither of these implied denylists was documented, which surprised users
(see #32651). Document them, and explain how to work around the
mount-point exclusion by adding an explicit CopyFiles= entry for the
directory in question.

dongshengyuan 05ea7e87b6 resolvectl: support JSON output for openpgp and tlsa
The openpgp and tlsa verbs rejected --json= even though they
already determine the RR type they query. Allow JSON output for
these shortcut commands.

Accept matching explicit --type= values as well, but reject
mismatched types so openpgp only queries OPENPGPKEY records and

Refuse unauthenticated key records in JSON format so scripts do
not accidentally consume cryptographic DNS data that would only

Yu Watanabe d2685c303b tmpfiles: reject extra argument fields and make 'r'/'R' support age field (#43195)
This updates systemd-tmpfiles in two small areas:

- Reject non-empty argument fields for tmpfiles.d line types that do not
consume the argument field, instead of warning and silently ignoring
them.
- Let `r` and `R` tmpfiles.d entries honor the `Age` field when
`systemd-tmpfiles --clean` is used. The existing `--remove` behavior
remains unconditional.

The completed TODO entries are removed, and NEWS/man page documentation
is updated for the visible behavior changes.

Paul Meyer 57f8a85a21 cryptsetup: measure volume key and keyslot via the pcrextend Varlink service (#43109)
Motivated by
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/43041#discussion_r3595022610.

Switch systemd-cryptsetup's volume-key and keyslot measurements from
driving the TPM directly (tpm2-util) to the io.systemd.PCRExtend Varlink
service, aligning it with how the verity and imds measurements already
work.

Some notes on decisions taken:
- The volume key is sent over the wire. systemd-pcrextend will do the
hmac. The socket is root only. Otherwise we would need to do bank
negotiation via varlink and pollute the interface with it.
- `tpm2-measure-bank=` deprecated/dropped. Same reason as above.
- `tpm2-device=` now only affects unlocking. The device for measurements
is selected by pcrextend.
- Measuring requires the presence of `systemd-pcrextend.socket` in the
initrd, should be already given as systemd-veritysetup relies on it,
too.
- Logs are done on the pcrextend side.

lzwind 9b76949a47 network: document that Domains= may be specified more than once (#43194)
The `Domains=` option in the `[Network]` section did not document its
behaviour when specified repeatedly. In practice the option is additive
(each occurrence accumulates search/routing domains) and assigning an
empty string resets the list, matching the closely related `DNS=`
option. This is implemented by `config_parse_domains()` in
`src/network/networkd-dns.c`, which frees both the search and route
domain sets on an empty `rvalue` and otherwise inserts each
whitespace-separated entry into the corresponding set.

Document this explicitly, using the same wording already used for
`DNS=` in the same man page, so users know repeated assignments are
combined and that an empty value clears them.

Fixes #38740.

Yu Watanabe 4f32e0e853 sysupdate: Change feature/component enablement and disablement (#43191)
- sysupdate: In the auto-enable service, don't enable all features
    
    The auto-enable service should activate suggested components and
features but enabled all features which includes the default components
    unsuggested features and any unsuggested features of the suggested
components. This is unexpected behavior and we rather want this service
    to be limited to suggested features.
Switch the service flag to suggested and make the wording more explicit
    in the man page. Also fix the wrong statement that it operates on
    enabled components, it operates on all components, also explicitly
    disabled ones.

- sysupdate: Change disabling with
--component-suggested/--feature-suggested
    
    The disabling of features or components with the flag
--component-suggested/--feature-suggested didn't disable the suggested
ones but instead disabled all other ones. This is rather unintuitive due
    to how the flags are named and also not really needed because the
intended reconciliation outcome can instead be done by first disabling
everything and then enabling the suggested ones again which is easier to
    reason about. For components the tricky part is that they default to
enabled and thus it's better to have the disable/enable commands with
--component-suggested operate only on suggested ones instead of touching
others like "legacy" components that don't explicity say whether they
    are enabled and suggested or not.
    
    Make running disablement of components/features with
    --component-suggested/--feature-suggested undo a previous enablement
with the same flags. Document how one can align the system to only use
suggested components/features and not anything else by doing it in two
steps, first disabling everything and then enabling suggested ones. This
also makes it clearer now that all components that are not explicitly
    enabled nor suggested will be disabled then.

Chris Coulson f0f3687700 tpm2: Improve how NvPCR protection works.
NV indexes created in the storage hierarchy can be undefined and
redefined with TPM owner auth. Because of this, NvPCRs need some way
to prevent them from being redfined in a way that allows spoof
measurements to be replayed.

The current approach requires knowledge of a secret ("anchor secret")
in order to derive the initial NvPCR measurement and to derive a
measurement to an existing PCR (9). The credential is protected by the
TPM with a PCR policy. Without access to the credential, it's not
possible to replay measurements to a newly defined NvPCR without
breaking the binding with the measurement in PCR 9. However, this
approach has a couple of issues:

- The credential is currently only protected by PCR11. As it's not
  protected by the rest of the boot chain, it's possible to boot other
  operating systems in order to replay the PCR11 measurements and
  recover the secret. Note that as the NvPCR anchoring happens in early
  boot, the credential is stored in the ESP.
- Someone with privileged access to a system can just create a new
  credential containing a known secret and store this in /var/lib and
  the ESP. The NvPCRs are anchored with this known secret on subsequent
  boots, and therefore the measurements can no longer be trusted.
  Imagine the scenario where privileged access is theoretically possible
  as a result of some vulnerability. After upgrading the system to fix
  this vulnerability, the system should be able to attest that it is
  now in a good state. However, if an adversary were able to use their
  priviliges to replace the credential, they are able to obtain
  persistence and the NvPCR measurements are no longer trustworthy.

This PR changes things to take a different approach. Instead of
requiring knowledge of a secret, the NvPCRs are now created in a way
that requires a policy to be satisfied for writing. The write policy has
2 branches:
- TPM2_PolicyNvWritten(true), which can be satisified without any
  further authorization if the NvPCR has already been extended.
- TPM2_PolicyAuthorize(pcrPubKey, SHA256("nvpcr-init")) which can be
  satisfied with a signed PCR policy, and must be used to perform the
  initial extend to a NvPCR.

The intention here is that the signed PCR policy that can be used to
authorize the initial extend to the NvPCR can only be satisfied during
early boot. During later boot phases, this signed PCR policy must not be
valid. This means that if a NvPCR is undefined and redefined, it won't
be possible to satisfy its write policy in order to able to perform the
initial extend.

In order to anchor the NvPCRs and prevent them from being undefined and
then redefined with a different policy that does allow them to be
extended, the names of the NvPCRs are measured to PCR9. Verifiers must
check that the names of attested NvPCRs match the measurements in PCR9.

This uses the PCR signing key from the currently booted UKI to create
the NvPCRs. If this changes between boots, then tpm2-setup automatically
recreates new NvPCRs with an updated write policy to reflect this. I've
tried to be careful to not undefine arbitrary NV indexes in this case,
so it checks that the existing NV index looks like a NvPCR (ie, it has
the expected attributes) before undefining it.

I did originally try to preserve the old behaviour for existing systems,
but it makes things a lot more complicated. As the new implementation
already creates new NvPCRs when the PCR signing key changes, I ended up
just automatically upgrading the old NvPCRs as well. Again, I check here
that any existing NV index looks like an old style NvPCR (ie, it has the
expected attributes) before undefining it.

I did notice that the initial NvPCR measurement isn't going into the
log. I don't know if that was an intentional choice, but I've preserved
that behaviour in this PR.

This also adds a new option to ukify (--sign-initrd-pcrs) which creates
signed policies (one per PCR bank) that can only be satisfied from the
initrd. These policies are used for initializing the NvPCRs, but can also
be used for protecting TPM2 keyslots enrolled with systemd-cryptenroll
(by using the --tpm2-public-key-policyref=initrd option).

There is one outstanding issue. The NvPCR definitions support different
algorithms, but the use of PolicyAuthorize means that they can only support
SHA-256 for now. This is because the signed policy algorithm must match
the name algorithm, and some additional work is required to support
signed PCR policies for algorithms other than SHA256. I've left a note in
tpm2_nvpcr_initialize that details what's required, and I'll take a look
at that in a subsequent PR.

dongshengyuan 47536f5aac escape: add --stdin input mode
systemd-escape currently only processes strings passed as
command line arguments. This is awkward for callers that already
have a generated list of strings, because they need to loop around
the tool or use xargs and carefully preserve whitespace and other
special characters.

Add --stdin to read one string per line from standard input and
write one escaped result per output line. Keep command line strings
mutually exclusive with --stdin so the input source remains
unambiguous.

Use an explicit option instead of treating '-' specially, since '-'
is itself a valid string to escape. The existing escape, unescape,
mangle, path, suffix, and template rules are reused unchanged.

Beniamino Galvani 9af2d7e4c8 man: update the sample glib/sd-event integration
The normal order of operations when iterating the GLib main loop is:

 - prepare()  -> sd_event_prepare()
 - poll the file descriptors
 - check()    -> sd_event_wait()
 - dispatch() -> sd_event_dispatch()

GLib does not guarantee that check() is always called between two
consecutive prepare() invocations. When another thread attaches or
removes a source with poll fds while the main thread is inside
poll(), g_main_context_check_unlocked() returns immediately without
calling any source's check() callback.

Since the sd_event GSource adapter maps prepare/check/dispatch to
sd_event_prepare/sd_event_wait/sd_event_dispatch, a skipped check()
leaves sd_event in ARMED state. The next prepare() then hits
assertion "e->state == SD_EVENT_INITIAL".

The following program reproduces the faulty scenario by creating a
thread that attaches a new fd during the poll phase:

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <stdlib.h>
  #include <sys/socket.h>
  #include <glib.h>
  #include <systemd/sd-event.h>
  #include <unistd.h>

  /* from glib-event-glue.c */
  extern GSource *g_sd_event_create_source(sd_event *event);

  static gpointer thread_func(gpointer user_data) {
    GSource *source;
    GPollFD pollfd;
    int fd;

    g_usleep(G_USEC_PER_SEC / 10);

    fd = socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM | SOCK_CLOEXEC, 0);
    if (fd < 0)
      abort();

    source = g_source_new(&(GSourceFuncs){0}, sizeof(GSource));
    pollfd.fd = fd;
    pollfd.events = G_IO_IN;
    pollfd.revents = 0;
    g_source_add_poll(source, &pollfd);
    g_source_attach(source, NULL);
    g_source_destroy(source);
    g_source_unref(source);

    close(fd);

    return NULL;
  }

  int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    sd_event *event = NULL;
    GSource *source;
    GThread *thread;
    int i, r;

    r = sd_event_default(&event);
    if (r < 0)
      return 1;

    source = g_sd_event_create_source(event);
    if (!source)
      return 1;

    g_source_attach(source, NULL);

    for (i = 0; i < 50; i++) {
      thread = g_thread_new("check-skip", thread_func, NULL);
      g_main_context_iteration(NULL, TRUE);
      g_thread_join(thread);
      g_main_context_iteration(NULL, FALSE);
    }

    g_source_destroy(source);
    g_source_unref(source);
    sd_event_unref(event);

    return 0;
  }

When the program uses the current glue code, it crashes with:

  Assertion 'e->state == SD_EVENT_INITIAL' failed at src/libsystemd/sd-event/sd-event.c:4560, function sd_event_prepare(). Aborting.

Fix the problem by skipping sd_event_prepare() if the event is
already ARMED: it was already prepared in a previous iteration and
it can be polled immediately.

Nandakumar Raghavan 13aec9fddf networkctl,networkd: add --no-reconfigure flag to networkctl reload
Add a new --no-reconfigure flag to 'networkctl reload' that reloads
.network and .netdev files from disk without reconfiguring any network
interfaces. This may be useful to avoid reconfiguring multiple interfaces
simultaneously when multiple .network files are updated, or when an updated
.network file is applied to multiple interfaces.

On the networkd side, manager_reload() gains a reconfigure_links parameter
that gates the per-link reconfiguration loop. A new io.systemd.Network.Reload
varlink method is added that exposes this as an optional reconfigureLinks
boolean (defaults to true). Both plain 'networkctl reload' and
'--no-reconfigure' now unconditionally call this method first. If an older
networkd returns MethodNotFound, plain reload falls back to
io.systemd.service.Reload for backward compatibility; '--no-reconfigure'

Yu Watanabe 17e911ffc8 udev: drop home-grown udev-ctrl socket
Nowadays, varlink is used to control systemd-udevd. Let's drop the
legacy socket.

Note, the existence of /run/udev/control socket is widely used in both
our code and external projects. Also, the dependency to
systemd-udevd-control.socket is widely used in many projects.
Hence, we need to create a symlink to the socket file and .socket unit
file.

Luca Boccassi cec14f99d2 sysupdate: add config file with metadata for sysupdate components (#42651)
This carries some metadata for components. It's supposed to grow a bit,
and include a way to enable/disable transfers, and to condition them.

Lennart Poettering 02cd3fd879 repart: support generating LUKS+Verity partitions
For various cases it is interesting to both sign and encrypted a file
system, for example to prepare it on one host and provide it to another.
Let's explicitly support preparing this in systemd-repart via setting
both Verity= and Encrypt=.

Aritra Basu 08bebda611 network: add IPv4ProxyARPAddress= and consolidate proxy ARP/NDP handling
This adds an IPv4 counterpart to `IPv6ProxyNDPAddress=` for adding
manual entries to the kernel's IPv4 neighbour proxy table (check via
`ip -4 neighbour show proxy dev <dev>`). systemd-networkd only exposed
`IPv4ProxyARP=` for per-interface `proxy_arp` sysctl (automatic proxy
ARP) with no way to manage manual entries from a .network file.

To avoid duplicating the IPv6 proxy NDP code path, both families are
now combined into a single new `networkd-neighbor-proxy` module. The
IPv6 behaviour is preserved: `IPv6ProxyNDPAddress=` still implies
`IPv6ProxyNDP=yes` unless `IPv6ProxyNDP=` is explicitly disabled and
entries are still dropped if the kernel has no IPv6 support.
The same rule is applied to `IPv4ProxyARPAddress=`. It implies
`IPv4ProxyARP=yes` when the sysctl is not explicitly set and has no
effect if `IPv4ProxyARP=` has been set to false.

This keeps the user model symmetric and predictable across both
families: a single per-address setting that turns on the matching
per-interface sysctl automatically, while still letting system
administrators opt out by setting the boolean explicitly to false.

Note that the IPv4 manual NTF_PROXY entries installed here would
actually function without `proxy_arp` (unlike IPv6, where `proxy_ndp`
gates the manual entries); the implication is kept for symmetry with
`IPv6ProxyNDPAddress=` and is now called out explicitly in the man
page, together with the fact that enabling `proxy_arp` also activates
interface-wide automatic proxy ARP for routed-toward addresses on
connected subnets.

Parser-time validation rejects addresses the kernel would refuse:
the ANY/null address for both families, IPv4 and IPv6 multicast
and the IPv4 limited broadcast 255.255.255.255.

Daan De Meyer 28b1e4ea16 repart: make COW behavior configurable
systemd-repart currently forces newly created image files into NOCOW mode.
That prevents files from being reflinked into the image, making image builds
slower and increasing their disk usage on filesystems that support cloning.

Add a tristate --cow= option. By default, leave the filesystem or parent
directory COW policy unchanged. With --cow=yes, explicitly enable COW; with
--cow=no, retain the previous behavior of forcing NOCOW. Add XO_COW as the
counterpart to XO_NOCOW so xopenat_full() applies either policy while retaining
its normal creation-error cleanup.

Document the new option and extend TEST-58-REPART to verify inherited COW and
NOCOW policies as well as explicit COW and NOCOW overrides. Compare the unset
behavior with the filesystem default so the test also works on nodatacow
mounts, and skip it when the inode attribute is unsupported.

Allow full UAPI.10 version strings, i.e. "+", "_", "~" and "^" too, to

These version strings are generally distro-managed, hence use the more

hanjinpeng 0e7033215d man: clarify that --when= is a lower bound, not a condition
`systemctl reboot --when=yesterday` reboots the machine immediately, which
surprised users enough to be reported as a bug. It is not one: the timestamp
passed to --when= (and to ScheduleShutdown(), and to shutdown(8)) declares the
earliest point in time the action may be taken, it is not a condition that is
evaluated and that could fail.

Behaving any differently would be racy and surprising: "--when=now" refers to
the past by the time the request is processed, and "--when=+50ms" may well have
elapsed already due to scheduling latencies. In both cases we must still carry
out the action the user asked for.

Document the semantics explicitly in systemctl(1), shutdown(8) and the
org.freedesktop.login1(5) D-Bus interface documentation.

Lennart Poettering 78f81f02e8 boot: skip random seed handling if seed file is marked read-only
If the read-only FAT file attribute is set on /loader/random-seed,
don't update the seed file — and hence don't use it either, since a
seed we cannot update would be the same on every boot.

This gives users an explicit way to turn off random seed handling by
marking the file read-only, useful for example in pre-built OS images
that are replicated to many systems, where the baked-in seed is shared
and hence must not be credited.

The check is done upfront in process_random_seed(), before any other
work, mirroring the existing check for read-only volumes. This covers
both systemd-boot and systemd-stub, which share this code.
