Our baseline is v5.4 and cgroup v2 is enforced now,
which means CPU accounting is cheap everywhere without
requiring any controller, hence just remove the directive.
If DefaultDependencies=no, /var/ may not be mounted yet when the service
is being started. Previously, In such case, if the service has
PrivateTmp=disconnected, the service manager created /var/tmp/ on the
root filesystem and mounted the disconnected private tmpfs there. That
poluted the root filesystem and disturbed gpt-auto-generator on next
boot, as /var/ would not be empty anymore. See issue #37258.
This changes PrivateTmp=disconnected as the following:
- If DefaultDependencies=no and RootDirectory=/RootImage= are not set,
then a private tmpfs is mounted _only_ on /tmp/, and set $TMPDIR=/tmp
environment variable to suggest the service to use /tmp/.
- If DefaultDependencies=yes and RootDirectory=/RootImage= are not set,
then implies RequiresMountsFor=/var/, though that is typically
redundant, but anyway. Hence, we can safely mount /var/tmp/.
- Otherwise, i.e. when one of RootDirectory=/RootImage= is set, behaves
as the same as the previous, as the private root filesystem for the
service is explicitly prepared by the service manager, and we can
safely mount a private tmpfs on /var/tmp/ without any extra
dependencies.
Fixes#37258.

Currently there are various circular dependencies between headers
in core/. Let's get rid of these by making judicious use of forward
declarations and moving includes into implementation files instead of
having them in header files.
Getting rid of circular header includes simplifies the code and makes
various clang based tooling such as iwyu work much better on our code.
The most important change is getting rid of the manager.h include in
unit.h which is possible thanks to the previous commits. We also move
the OOMPolicy and StatusType enums to unit.h to remove the need for
other unit headers to include manager.h to get access to these enums.
These variables are assigned with set_put_strv(), hence
string_hash_ops_free is used.
This also drops unnecessary call of set_ensure_allocated() with wrong
hash ops.
This delegates one or more namespaces to the service. Concretely,
this setting influences in which order we unshare namespaces. Delegated
namespaces are unshared *after* the user namespace is unshared. Other
namespaces are unshared *before* the user namespace is unshared.
Fixes#35369
Migrating ProtectHostname to enum will set the stage for adding more
properties like ProtectHostname=private in future commits.
In addition, we add PrivateHostnameEx property to dbus API which uses
string instead of boolean.
This new setting allows unsharing the pid namespace in a unit. Because
you have to fork to get a process into a pid namespace, we fork in
systemd-executor to get into the new pid namespace. The parent then
sends the pid of the child process back to the manager and exits while
the child process continues on with the rest of exec_invoke() and then
executes the actual payload.
Communicating the child pid is done via a new pidref socket pair that is
set up on manager startup.
We unshare the PID namespace right before the mount namespace so we
mount procfs correctly. Note PrivatePIDs=yes always implies MountAPIVFS=yes
to mount procfs.
When running unprivileged in a user session, user namespace is set up first
to allow for PID namespace to be unshared. However, when running in
privileged mode, we unshare the user namespace last to ensure the user
namespace does not own the PID namespace and cannot break out of the sandbox.
Note we disallow Type=forking services from using PrivatePIDs=yes since the
init proess inside the PID namespace must not exit for other processes in
the namespace to exist.
Note Daan De Meyer did the original work for this commit with Ryan Wilson
addressing follow-ups.

When an exec directory is shared between services, this allows one of the
service to be the producer of files, and the other the consumer, without
letting the consumer modify the shared files.
This will be especially useful in conjunction with id-mapped exec directories
so that fully sandboxed services can share directories in one direction, safely.
This commit refactors ProtectControlGroups= from using a boolean
in the dbus/execute backend to using an enum. There is no functional
change but this will allow adding new non-boolean values (e.g. strict,
private) a la PrivateHome.
This will allow units (scopes/slices/services) to override the default
systemd-oomd setting DefaultMemoryPressureDurationSec=.
The semantics of ManagedOOMMemoryPressureDurationSec= are:
- If >= 1 second, overrides DefaultMemoryPressureDurationSec= from oomd.conf
- If is empty, uses DefaultMemoryPressureDurationSec= from oomd.conf
- Ignored if ManagedOOMMemoryPressure= is not "kill"
- Disallowed if < 1 second
Note the corresponding dbus property is DefaultMemoryPressureDurationUSec
which is in microseconds. This is consistent with other time-based
dbus properties.
This adds the ExtraFileDescriptor property to StartTransient dbus API
with format "a(hs)" - array of (file descriptor, name) pairs. The FD
will be passed to the unit via sd_notify like Socket and OpenFile.
systemctl show also shows ExtraFileDescriptorName for these transient
units. We only show the name passed to dbus as the FD numbers will
change once passed over the unix socket and are duplicated, so its
confusing to display the numbers.
We do not add this functionality for systemd-run or general systemd
service units as it is not useful for general systemd services.
Arguably, it could be useful for systemd-run in bash scripts but we
prefer to be cautious and not expose the API yet.
Fixes: #34396
One of the major pait points of managing fleets of headless nodes is
that when something fails at startup, unless debug level was already
enabled (which usually isn't, as it's a firehose), one needs to manually
enable it and pray the issue can be reproduced, which often is really
hard and time consuming, just to get extra info. Usually the extra log
messages are enough to triage an issue.
This new option makes it so that when a service fails and is restarted
due to Restart=, log level for that unit is set to debug, so that all
setup code in pid1 and sd-executor logs at debug level, and also a new
DEBUG_INVOCATION=1 env var is passed to the service itself, so that it
knows it should start with a higher log level. Once the unit succeeds
or reaches the rate limit the original level is restored.
This allows for "per-instance" credentials for units. The use case
is best explained with an example. Currently all our getty units
have the following stanzas in their unit file:
"""
ImportCredential=agetty.*
ImportCredential=login.*
"""
This means that setting agetty.autologin=root as a system credential
will make every instance of our all our getty units autologin as the
root user. This prevents us from doing autologin on /dev/hvc0 while
still requiring manual login on all other ttys.
To solve the issue, we introduce support for renaming credentials with
ImportCredential=. This will allow us to add the following to e.g.
serial-getty@.service:
"""
ImportCredential=tty.serial.%I.agetty.*:agetty.
ImportCredential=tty.serial.%I.login.*:login.
"""
which for serial-getty@hvc0.service will make the service manager read
all credentials of the form "tty.serial.hvc0.agetty.xxx" and pass them
to the service in the form "agetty.xxx" (same goes for login). We can
apply the same to each of the getty units to allow setting agetty and
login credentials for individual ttys instead of globally.
DynamicUser= enables PrivateTmp= implicitly to avoid files owned by reusable uids
leaking into the host. Change it to instead create a fully private tmpfs instance
instead, which also ensures the same result, since it has less impactful semantics
with respect to PrivateTmp=yes, which links the mount namespace to the host's /tmp
instead. If a user specifies PrivateTmp manually, let the existing behaviour
unchanged to ensure backward compatibility is not broken.
This changes the executor to systematically send handoff timestamps to
the service manager if a socket for that is supplied. This drops the
code that did this via Type=exec messages, and reverts that part to the
old behaviour before 93cb78aee2.
Benefits of this approach:
1. We can collect the handoff for any command we fork off, regardless
if it's ExecStart= something else, regardless whether it's Type=exec,
Type=simple or some any other service type, regardless of the unit
type.
2. We collect both CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, as we do for the
other process timestamps.
3. It's entirely backwards compatible, as this doesn't change the
protocol between service manager and executor, but just extends it.
For example with SetCredential=mycred: the data payload is empty, but it
is still a valid credential.
This reorders the arguments when serializing credentials, so the
possibly empty argument is not at the end of the serialized string. This
way we can still easily use the extract_many_words() machinery, and with
the use of EXTRACT_DONT_COALESCE_SEPARATORS properly deserialize even an
empty credential. This changes LoadCredentials= as well just to keep the
code for (de)serializing both directives in sync.
`c->cpu_sched_reset_on_fork` is serialized using
`exec-context-cpu-sched-reset-on-fork` and
`exec-context-cpu-scheduling-reset-on-fork`. Let's keep only the second one, to
serialize the value only if `cpu_sched_set` is true.
