Currently, pick_filter_image_any matches any image
with any suffix, which is way more than it should
be doing. It should only be matching images with
the .raw suffix.
Let's address this shortcoming by allowing to pass
multiple filters to path_pick(), and define
pick_filter_image_any as the combination of the
raw and directory image filters.

Allow configuring the menu timeout used by sd-boot by setting
`io.systemd.boot.timeout=<value>` as SMBIOS type 11 string.
This takes precedence over the setting from the config file
and the EFI var.
Useful for e.g. integration tests that want to control that
a generic image boots faster.
When employing MCL_FUTURE we don't actually want it to impose
immediate population of malloc()-ed pages. Hence let's set
MCL_ONFAULT everywhere.
Additionally, specify MCL_CURRENT to ensure future memory allocations
on already mapped pages are covered too. (Addresses
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40319#discussion_r2693726196)
Note that in shutdown the mlockall() is done to avoid keeping swap space
busy, hence a dedicated call w/ MCL_CURRENT and w/o MCL_ONFAULT is made.
If no real jobs were added to the transaction, do not activate it.
The JOB_NOP anchor does not perform any useful work and activating
such transaction only wastes resources.
Fixes#9751
The systemd-vmspawn man page has a note that the `--notify-ready`
defaults to "true" and then says that this is unlike "systemd-vmspawn"
where it defaults to "false". This appears to be a copy/paste issue
and here we want "unlike systemd-nspawn".
Move the BPF_JMP_A macro from override/linux/bpf.h to
override/linux/bpf_insn.h. The bpf.h override conflicts with libbpf's
-I/usr/include/bpf/uapi include path. Since bpf_insn.h is not typically
installed at /usr/include/linux/ or /usr/include/bpf/uapi/linux/, the
override works without conflicts.
Fixes#40331
GRND_INSECURE was added in kernel 5.6, and our baseline on kernel is
5.10. Let's assume it always works. Even if it does not work, we have
further fallback logics. So, this should be safe.
The previous minimum required version 5.4 will be EOL on 2025-12.
Let's bump the required minimum kernel version to the next LTS release 5.10
(released on 2020-12-13, EOL on 2026-12, CIP support until 2031-01).
The new recommended baseline 5.14 is the version that CentOS 9 uses.
CentOS 9 will EOL on 2027-05.

NvPCR need to read from /var/lib/nvpcr and the current unit file is
executed before /var is mounted. This adds the dep back so its always
runs after /var is mounted like systemd-tpm2-setup.service
When n_all_initrds == 0, then all_initrds is unmodified from its initial
value of:
_cleanup_free_ struct iovec *all_initrds = NULL;
and in the else block of the "if (n_all_initrds > 1)" the NULL is
dereferenced:
final_initrd = all_initrds[0];
Leading to the stub crashing due to a NULL pointer deref.
Fix this by initializing final_initrd to all 0s and only
running the else block if (n_all_initrds == 1).
When creating ext2/ext3/ext4 filesystems, mke2fs generates a random
hash_seed for htree directory indexing. This causes non-reproducible
images even when SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH is set and the same filesystem UUID
is used.
Set the hash_seed explicitly to match the filesystem UUID, ensuring
that repeated builds with the same seed produce bit-for-bit identical
images.
Also add a test case in TEST-58-REPART to verify ext4 reproducibility
by creating the same partition twice and comparing the results.

I used claude ai to help me with this change.
This is analogous to a change in mkosi[1] with the same motivation: some
scripts are run to bootstrap the distribution tree and are thus running
directly on the host system which may not have `/bin/bash` (e.g. NixOS).
As with the `mkosi` change, do that for each shebang for consistency
reasons.

Setting Restart=0 seems reasonable to have no delay on the first
restart, if you do not realize this is impossible with an exponential
restart. So explicitly mention that RestartSec must be set.
A recent commit made the standalone binaries always buildable
on demand, but as a side effect due to how 'meson install' works,
they are always built and installed by 'meson install' even
if the standalone-binaries= option is disabled.
Fix it so that 'meson install' only installs them if the
option is explicitly enabled, while still allowing
building them on demand.

Currently mount options are handled in such a way that the first
definition for a given partition wins, and documented as such.
Change them so that they behave like other options, and the
last specified wins.
Applies to RootImageOptions=, MountImages= and ExtensionImages=.
Switch from a linked list to an array indexed by the partition
specifier to store them.
Transparent Hugepages (THP) is a Linux kernel feature that manages
memory using larger pages (2MB on x86, compared to the default 4KB). The
main goal is to improve memory management efficiency and system
performance, especially for memory-intensive applications. However, it
can cause drawbacks in some scenarios, such as memory regression and
latency spikes. THP policy is governed for the entire system via
/sys/kernel/mm/transparent_hugepage/enabled.
However, it can be overridden for individual workloads via prctl(2) call.
MemoryTHP= is used to disable THPs at exec-invoke to stop providing THPs
for workloads where the drawbacks outweigh the advantages. When set to
"disable", MemoryTHP= disables THPs completely for the process,
irrespective of global THP controls.

As announced by a few releases now, finally drop support for
sysvinit scripts.
Keep rc-local generator for now, as it's really a distinct
feature even though from the same era.
They are separate and independent settings, so adjust meson rules
and unit files accordingly. It is possible to enable support for
rc-local script without support for sysvinit scripts, and viceversa.
This will become useful later when sysvinit scripts support is
removed.
