All tags are managed under /run/udev/tags, and the directories there are
named with tags. Hence, each tag must be a valid filename.
This also makes all validity check moved to sd-device side, and
makes failure caused by setting invalid tags non-critical.
With this change, an empty string cannot be assigned to TAG=, hence the
test cases are adjusted.
Fixes RHBZ#2183546 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2183546).
Previously, journal file is always compressed with the default algorithm
set at compile time. So, if a newer algorithm is used, journal files
cannot be read by older version of journalctl that does not support the
algorithm.

Chasing symlinks is a core function that's used in a lot of places
so it deservers a less verbose names so let's rename it to chase()
and chaseat().
We also slightly change the pattern used for the chaseat() helpers
so we get chase_and_openat() and similar.
Now that we have reference counting, it's useful to be able to push
single key values onto the log context separately, so that we don't
have to allocate new storage to join the separate string together into
a single field which means we won't be able to reuse a context containing
the same field.
Let's try to optimize against pushing the same fields multiple times
onto the log context. To achieve this we make the log context reference
counted and return an existing context object if it's using the same
fields.
A consequence of this is that we have to make sure attaching/detaching
is coupled to the lifetime of the context object, so we make the attach
and detach functions private for now. If we need independent attach/detach
in the future, we can make that work with some extra complexity but since
we don't need it yet, let's not support it for now.
Unfortunately, journal_file_next_entry() returns 0 when the next entry
not found. The commit cc938e4a0a adds
FIXME comment about that. We should really fix that, but the function and
its return value are used in many place, hence checking all usecases is not
easy. So, let's workaround that here, and handle the 0 return value by
the caller.
Follow-up for 34af74946e.
Fixes#26822.
In various tools and services we have a per-system and per-user concept.
So far we sometimes used a boolean indicating whether we are in system
mode, or a reversed boolean indicating whether we are in user mode, or
the LookupScope enum used by the lookup path logic.
Let's address that, in introduce a common enum for this, we can use all
across the board.
This is mostly just search/replace, no actual code changes.
This changes the PSI window duration we default to for watching memory
pressure events from 1s to 2s. This is because apparently the kernel
will soon disallow window durations other than 2s for unprivileged
processes.
Hence, we'll bump the threshold from 100m to 200ms, and the window from
1s to 2s.
IN C23, thread_local is a reserved keyword and we shall therefore
do nothing to redefine it. glibc has it defined for older standard
version with the right conditions.
v2 by Yu Watanabe:
Move the definition to missing_threads.h like the way we define e.g.
missing syscalls or missing definitions, and include it by the users.

With this we should be able to determine on systems without
battery-backed RTC even during early boot whether a boot is supposed to
be earlier than another.
Fixes: #662
This is useful to later order boot IDs by time, addressing #662.
Basically, this determines the most recently written for each boot ID
from all currently open journal files. This is then stored in a hash
table (which maps the boot ID to a prioq of journal files, ordered by
their timestamp).
Why is this useful? If systems lack a battery-buffered RTC they will
initially have a system clock basically starting at zero. Later they
might acquire an NTP fix, or at least roughly monotonic time via a
stored timestamp. Thus, log entries written early during boot tend to be
badly timestamped, and those written most recently are likely to have
most accurate timestamps. Thus, if we track the newest entry for each
boot ID we likely can order the boot ID via their timestamps.
This commit only add the logic to maintain the hash table/prioq. It
doesn't actually make use of this information for ordering yet. A later
patch adds that.
This way we can quickly find the most recent entry, without searching or
traversing entry array chains.
This is relevant later, as it it allows us to quickly determine the most
recent timestamps of each journal file, in a roughly atomic way.
If CONFIG_PSI_DEFAULT_DISABLED is set in the kernel, then the PSI files
will be there, and you can open them, but read()/write() will fail.
Which is terrible, since that happens so late. But anyway, handle this
gracefully.
This is a follow-up for b1712fabd1 which
was prepped for 253, but merged into early 254 development cycle. It
thus had the symbol it adds at the wrong symver. Fix thta.
