Previously we'd allow marking TTY sessions as idle, but when the user
tried to unmark it as idle again it we'd just revert to automatic TTY
atime idle detection, thus making it impossible to mark the session as
non-idle, unless its TTY is atime-touched all the time. But of course,
marking a session as idle is pretty much fatal if you never can mark it
as non-idle again.
This change is triggred by bug reports such as this:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/14053
With this patch we will now output a clean, clear error message if a
client tries to manipulate the idle state of a non-graphical session.
This means we now have clear rules: "manual" idle logic for graphical
sessions, and TTY based ones for all others that have a TTY of some
form.
I considered allowing the idle state to be overriden both ways for tty
sessions but that's problematic: for sessions that are temporarily
upgraded from tty to graphical and thus suddenly want to manage their
own idle state we'd need to a way to detect when the upgrade goes away
and thus we should revert to old behaviour. Without reverting to the
previous TTY idle auto-magic we'd otherwise be stuck in an eternally
idle or eternally non-idle state, with really bad effects in case
auto-suspend is used. Thus, let's instead generate a proper error
message, saying clearly we don't support it.

Closes: #14053
When starting a mount unit, systemd invokes mount command and moves the
unit's internal state to "mounting". Then it watches for updates of
/proc/self/mountinfo. When the expected mount entry newly appears in
mountinfo, the unit internal state is changed to "mounting-done".
Finally, when systemd finds the mount command has finished, it checks
whether the unit internal state is "mounting-done" and changes the state
to "mounted".
If the state was not "mounting-done" in the last step though mount command
was successfully finished, the unit is marked as "failed" with following
log messages:
Mount process finished, but there is no mount.
Failed with result 'protocol'.
If daemon-reload is done in parallel with starting mount unit, it is
possible that things happen in following order and result in above failure.
1. the mount unit state changes to "mounting"
2. daemon-reload saves the unit state
3. kernel completes the mount and /proc/self/mountinfo is updated
4. daemon-reload restores the saved unit state, that is "mounting"
5. systemd notices the mount command has finished but the unit state
is still "mounting" though it should be "mounting-done"
mount_setup_existing_unit() should take into account that MOUNT_MOUNTING
is transitional state and set MOUNT_PROC_JUST_MOUNTED flag if the unit
comes from /proc/self/mountinfo so that mount_process_proc_self_mountinfo()
later can make state transition from "mounting" to "mounting-done".
Fixes: #10872
Primarily, use the new multi-line support in table formatting.
Also, stream-line naming of the "max-addresses" options. We used three
names for the concept internall, let's just unify on the name we use for
this for external users, i.e. "max-addresses".
In subsequent commits, calls to if_nametoindex() will be replaced by a wrapper
that falls back to alternative name resolution over netlink. netlink support
requires libsystemd (for sd-netlink), and we don't want to add any functions
that require netlink in basic/. So stuff that calls if_nametoindex() for user
supplied interface names, and everything that depends on that, needs to be
moved.
We don't need a seperate output parameter that is of type int. glibc() says
that the type is "unsigned", but the kernel thinks it's "int". And the
"alternative names" interface also uses ints. So let's standarize on ints,
since it's clearly not realisitic to have interface numbers in the upper half
of unsigned int range.
If we have a template unit template@.service, it should be allowed to specify a
dependency on a unit without an instance, bar@.service. When the unit is created,
the instance will be propagated into the target, so template@inst.service will
depend on bar@inst.service.
This commit changes unit_dependency_name_compatible(), which makes the manager
accept links like that, and unit_file_verify_alias(), so that the installation
function will agree to create a symlink like that, and finally the tests are
adjusted to pass.
This mostly reuses existing checkers used by pid1, so handling of aliases
should be consistent. Hopefully, with the test it'll be clearer what it
happening.
Support for .wants/.requires "aliases" is restored. Those are still used in the
wild quite a bit, so we need to support them.
See https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/13119 for a discussion of aliases
with an instance that point to a different template: this is allowed.
