4acf0cfd2f ("logind: check PolicyKit before allowing VT switch") broke
the ability to write user sessions that run graphical sessions (e.g.
weston/X11). This was partially amended in 19bb87fbfa ("login: allow
non-console sessions to change vt") by changing the default PolicyKit
policy so that non-root users with a session are again allowed to switch
the VT. This makes the policy when PolKit is not enabled (as on many
embedded systems) closer the default PolKit policy and allows launching
graphical sessions as a non-root user.

Use the right FD, and do a fd_reopen instead of a dup, since the
latter will still share the internal pointer which then gets
moved by FOREACH_DIRENT, affecting the caller's FD.
Let's unify some code, and add a common implementation of a function
that checks whether we have tried all DNS servers yet, and retries the
transaction if we don't. We already use this same code twice. Let's use
it at some other places too now — basically all cases where we switch to
a new server — with the one case of packet loss, where we too switch
servers, but don#t care how many times we already tried to switch.
This adjusts our feature level handling: when DNSSEC strict mode is on,
let's never lower the feature level below the lowest DNSSEC mode.
Also, when asking whether DNSSEC is supproted, always say yes in strict
mode. This means that error reporting about transactions that fail
because of missing DNSSEC RRs will not report "incompatible-server" but
instead "missing-signature" or suchlike.
The main difference here is that DNSSEC failures become local to a
transaction, instead of propagating into the feature level we reuse for
future transactions. This is beneficial with routers that implement
"mostly a DNS proxy", i.e. that propagate most DNS requests 1:1 to their
upstream servers, but synthesize local answers for a select few domains.
For example, AVM Fritz!Boxes operate that way: they proxy most traffic
1:1 upstream in an DNSSEC-compatible fashion, but synthesize the
"fritz.box" locally, so that it can be used to configure the router.
This local domain cannot be DNSSEC verified, it comes without
signatures. Previously this would mean once that domain was resolved
feature level would be downgraded, and we'd thus fail all future DNSSEC
attempts. With this change, the immediate lookup for "fritz.box" will
fail validation, but for all other unrelated future ones that comes
without prejudice.
(While we are at it, also make a couple of other downgrade paths a bit
tighter.)
Fixes: #10570#14435#6490
The levels have an order, but the order is sometimes a bit arbitrary.
Hence add simple macros to check for specific features and use those, so
that the ordering leaks a bit less into all files.
So far we didn't really handle the case where we can't parse a reply
packet. Since this apparently happens in real-life though, let's add
some minimal logic, to downgrade/restart if we see this.
With all the preparatory work in previous PRs, we can now call static destructors
repeatedly without issue. We need to do it here so that global variables allocated
during parsing are properly freed.
If the cleanup function returns the appropriate type, use that to reset the
variable. For other functions (usually the foreign ones which return void), add
an explicit value to reset to.
This causes a bit of code churn, but I think it might be worth it. In a
following patch static destructors will be called from a fuzzer, and this
change allows them to be called multiple times. But I think such a change might
help with detecting unitialized code reuse too. We hit various bugs like this,
and things are more obvious when a pointer has been set to NULL.
I was worried whether this change increases text size, but it doesn't seem to:

I would expect that the compiler would be able to elide the setting of a
variable if the variable is never used again. And this seems to be the case:
in optimized builds there is no change in size whatsoever. And the change in
size in unoptimized build is negligible.
Something strange is happening with size of libsystemd: it's bigger in
optimized builds. Something to figure out, but unrelated to this patch.
I started working on this because I wanted to change how
DEFINE_TRIVIAL_CLEANUP_FUNC is defined. Even independently of that change, it's
nice to make make things more consistent and predictable.
Let's preferably route traffic for reverse lookups to LLMNR/mDNS/DNS on
the matching interface if the IP address is in the local subnet. Also,
if looking up an IP address of our own host, let's avoid doing
LLMNR/mDNS at all.
This is useful if "~." is a routing domain to DNS, as it means, local
reverse lookups still go to LLMNR/mDNS, too.
Fixes: #16243#10081
Some paths (eg: mount_tmpfs) simply assumed that prefixing always
happens and it always stores the original path in path_const, and
the prefixed path in path_malloc.
But if a MountEntry is set up in a helper function and thus uses
only _malloc struct members, this assumption doesn't hold and there's
a crash.
Refactor so that prefixing is done with a helper which stores the
original path in a separate struct member, and accessing it also
uses a helper which does the right thing.
_gc() does cleanup if it is possible. So far it returned a bool to
signal if it succeeded (false on success). When working on the resolved
code I had to look at the definition every time, because the (arguably
reversed) calling convention is unobvious. So let's return a pointer
(non-NULL: gc has not been done, NULL: gc has been done).
This fits nicely with the standard to return a pointer from all free
functions obviously.
The function to cleanup IPv6Token was defined using freep, i.e. the macro
generated a freepp function. The correct way would be to do something like
#define ipv6_token_free mfree
DEFINE_TRIVIAL_CLEANUP_FUNC(IPv6Token *, ipv6_token_free);
which would create ipv6_token_freep().
But since the cleanup function is unused, let's just drop it.
Let's make things more debuggable: when debug logging is on, let's
say which client is asking for our services.
This is helpful for easily figuring out which local process might
interfere with your debugging sessions by issuing additional requests
while you try to debug a request (I am looking at you, geoclue!).
Let's introduce a new flag that indicates whether the response was
acquired in "confidential" mode, i.e. via encrypted DNS-over-TLS, or
synthesized locally.
Fixes: #12859
Let's use the same flags type we use for client communication, i.e.
instead of "bool answer_authenticated", let's use "uint64_t
answer_query_flags", with the SD_RESOLVED_AUTHENTICATED flag.
This is mostly just search/replace, i.e. a refactoring, no change in
behaviour.
This becomes useful once in a later commit SD_RESOLVED_CONFIDENTIAL is
added to indicate resolution that either were encrypted (DNS-over-TLS)
or never left the local system.
When low-level RR resolution is requested from "resolvectl query" via
"--type=" or "--class=" no search domain logic is applied and no IDNA
translation.
Explain this in detail in the documentation, and also mentions this when
users attempt to resolve single-label names or names with international
characters in the output.
I believe the current behaviour is correct, but it is indeed surprising.
Hence the documentation and output improvement.
