This is really basic stuff and in a follow-up commit will use it all
across the codebase, including in process-util.[ch] which is in
src/basic/. Hence let's move it back to src/basic/ itself.
This helper sets RLIMIT_NOFILE's soft limit to 1024 (FD_SETSIZE) for
compatibility with apps using select().
The idea is that we use this helper to reset the limit whenever we
invoke foreign code from our own processes which have bumped
RLIMIT_NOFILE high.
We are pretty careful to reject abstract sockets that are too long to fit in
the address structure as a NUL-terminated string. And since we parse sockets as
strings, it is not possible to embed a NUL in the the address either. But we
might receive an external socket (abstract or not), and we want to be able to
print its address in all cases. We would call socket_address_verify() and
refuse to print various sockets that the kernel considers legit.
Let's do the strict verification only in case of socket addresses we parse and
open ourselves, and do less strict verification when printing addresses of
existing sockets, and use c-escaping to print embedded NULs and such.
More tests are added.
This should make LGTM happier because on FIXME comment is removed.
This is in many cases redundant, as a similar check is done by various
callers already, but in other cases (where we read the color from a
static table for example), it's nice to let the color check be done by
the table code itself, and since it doesn't hurt in the other cases just
do it again.
It's pretty useful to allow parse_boolean() to take a NULL argument and
return an error in that case, rather than abort. i.e. making this a
runtime rather than programming error allows us to shorten code
elsewhere.
it's already part of @ipc, no need to have it in both. Given that @ipc
is much more popular (as it is part of @system-service for example),
let's not define it a second time.
This flag can be used to make chase_symlinks() emit a warning when it
encounters an error.
Such flag can be useful for generating a comprehensive and detailed warning
since chase_symlinks() can generate a warning with a full context.
For now only warnings for unsafe transitions are produced.
If the caller asks for a unique name, but the input name is already
unique we can shortcut things and just use that, as long as we make at
least one bus call to validate it.
