Now that we actually can distuingish system and normal users there's no
point in taking session information into account anymore when splitting
up logs.
This has the beenfit with that coredump information will actually end up
in each user's own journal.
Introduce a new configuration file /etc/systemd/coredump.conf to
configure when to place coredumps in the journal and when on disk.
Since the coredumps are quite large, default to storing them only on
disk.
The file should have been in /usr/lib/ in the first place, since it
describes the OS container in /usr (and not the configuration in /etc),
hence, let's support os-release files in /usr/lib as fallback if no
version in /etc exists, following the usual override logic.
A prior commit already enabled tmpfiles to create /etc/os-release as a
symlink to /usr/lib/os-release should it be missing, thus providing nice
compatibility with applications only checking in /etc.
While it's probably a good idea if all apps check both locations via a
fallback logic, it is only necessary in the early boot process, as long
as the /etc/os-release symlink has not been restored, in case we boot
with an empty /etc.
"m" so far has been a non-globbing version of "z". Since this makes it
quite redundant, let's get rid of it. Remove "m" from the man pages,
beef up "z" docs instead, and make "m" nothing more than a compatibility
alias for "z".
We shouldn't destroy IPC objects of system users on logout.

This introduces SYSTEM_UID_MAX defined to the maximum UID of system
users. This value is determined compile-time, either as configure switch
or from /etc/login.defs. (We don't read that file at runtime, since this
is really a choice for a system builder, not the end user.)
While we are at it we then also update journald to use SYSTEM_UID_MAX
when we decide whether to split out log data for a specific client.
- Negative/positive errno mixup caused duplicates not to be detected properly.
Now we get a warning about some duplicate entries in our own catalogs...
- Errors in update_catalog would be ignored, but they should not be.
greedy_realloc() and greedy_realloc0() now store the allocated
size as the count, not bytes.
Replace GREEDY_REALLOC uses with GREEDY_REALLOC_T everywhere,
and then rename GREEDY_REALLOC_T to GREEDY_REALLOC. It is just
too error-prone to have two slightly different macros which do the
same thing.
safe_close_pair() is more like safe_close(), except that it handles
pairs of fds, and doesn't make and misleading allusion, as it works
similarly well for socketpairs() as for pipe()s...
safe_close() automatically becomes a NOP when a negative fd is passed,
and returns -1 unconditionally. This makes it easy to write lines like
this:
fd = safe_close(fd);
Which will close an fd if it is open, and reset the fd variable
correctly.
By making use of this new scheme we can drop a > 200 lines of code that
was required to test for non-negative fds or to reset the closed fd
variable afterwards.
It seems that resources are properly deallocated by MHD_destroy_response,
even if enqueuing the request fails.
Also replace a trivial printf with alloca and fixup log message
(it'll now be something like "Connection from CN=some.host.name",
which seems clear enough.)
Now --listen-http=-3 --listen-https=-4 can be used to spawn a µhttpd
server on those two ports, in http and https modes respectively.
As before, --listen-http=3 --listen-https=4 will launch µhttpd servers
on ports 3 and 4.
Most of the messages we send do not require a allocating and
freeing a buffer, to optimize this by using const strings.
Also, rename respond_error to mhd_respond*, since it is used
not only for errors.
Make use of information from printf to avoid one extra call to
strlen.
The whole tool is made dependent on µhttpd availability. It should be
easy to make the µhttpd parts conditional, but since transfer over
HTTP seems to be the primary use case, currently this is not done.
Current implementation uses nested epoll loops: sd-event is used for
the external event loop, and µhttpd uses epoll in its own
loop. Unfortunately µhttpd does not expose enough information to add
the descriptors it uses to the external event loop. This means that
starvation of other events is possible, if one of the inner µhttpd
loops is constantly busy. This means that µhttpd servers should not
be mixed with other sources.
The TLS authentication parts haven't been really tested properly, and
should not be take too seriously.
If --trust=ca.crt is used, only clients presenting certificates signed
by the ca will be allowed to proceed. No hostname matching is
performed, so any client wielding a signed certificate will be
authorized.
Error functions are moved from journal-gateway to microhttp-util and
made non-static, since now they are used in two source files.
Prefix "gnutls: " is added. Some semi-random mapping of gnutls levels
to syslog levels is done, but since gnutls levels seem to be used
rather loosely, most end up as debug.
A certificate authority certificate will be presented to clients,
causing them to present their client certificate, if it is signed by
this authority (default behaviour of most clients). No certificate
checking is actually performed.
