Currently, when we deserialize an fd we do a lot of manual work. Add a
common helper that makes this more robust and uniform.
Note that this sometimes changes behaviour slightly, but in ways that
shouldn't really matter: if we fail to deserialize an fd correctly we'll
unset (i.e. set to -EBADF) the fd in the deserialized data structure.
Previously, we'd leave the old value in place.
This should not change effective result (as in either case we'll be in a
bad state afterwards, just once we mix old/invalidated state with new
state, while now we'll reset the state explicitly to invalidated state
on failure). In particular as deserialization starts from an empty
structure generally, hence the old value should be unset anyway.
Another slight change is that if we fail to deserialize some object half
way, and we already have taken out one fd from the serialized fdset
we'll now just close it instead of returning it to/leaving it in the
fdset. Given that such "orphaned" fds are blanket closed after
deserialization finishes this also shouldn't change behaviour IRL.
Also, the idle_pipe was previously incorrectly serialized: we'd
serialize invalidated fds, which would fail, but because parsing errors
on this were ignored on the deserializatin noone noticed. This is fixed.
Use the flags MEMFD_EXEC or MEMFD_NOEXEC_SEAL as applicable.
These warnings instruct the kernel wether the memfd is executable or
not.
Without specifying those flags the kernel will emit the following
warning since version 6.3,
commit 105ff5339f49 ("mm/memfd: add MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL and MFD_EXEC"):
kernel: memfd_create() without MFD_EXEC nor MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL, pid=1 'systemd'
All callers of strv_env_replace() would free the argument on error.
So let's follow the same pattern as with strv_consume (and similar
naming) and unconditionally "use up" the argument.
Ideally, coccinelle would strip unnecessary braces too. But I do not see any
option in coccinelle for this, so instead, I edited the patch text using
search&replace to remove the braces. Unfortunately this is not fully automatic,
in particular it didn't deal well with if-else-if-else blocks and ifdefs, so
there is an increased likelikehood be some bugs in such spots.
I also removed part of the patch that coccinelle generated for udev, where we
returns -1 for failure. This should be fixed independently.
All users of the macro (except for one, in serialize.c), use the macro in
connection with read_line(), so they must include fileio.h. Let's not play
libc games and require multiple header file to be included for the most common
use of a function.
The removal of def.h includes is not exact. I mostly went over the commits that
switch over to use read_line() and add def.h at the same time and reverted the
addition of def.h in those files.
Let's be more careful with what we serialize: let's ensure we never
serialize strings that are longer than LONG_LINE_MAX, so that we know we
can read them back with read_line(…, LONG_LINE_MAX, …) safely.
In order to implement this all serialization functions are move to
serialize.[ch], and internally will do line size checks. We'd rather
skip a serialization line (with a loud warning) than write an overly
long line out. Of course, this is just a second level protection, after
all the data we serialize shouldn't be this long in the first place.
While we are at it also clean up logging: while serializing make sure to
always log about errors immediately. Also, (void)ify all calls we don't
expect errors in (or catch errors as part of the general
fflush_and_check() at the end.
