- introduce device_should_have_db(),
- split out device_get_db_path(),
- update log messages, especially clarify which stage is failed,
- use _cleanup_(unlink_and_freep) attribute,
- clear existing database file also when failed to create database directory
and when failed to create temporary file.
The assertion can be triggered by bad `$attr{[<subsys>/<sysname>]<attribute>}`
formatting. That's not a programmer's error, but a runtime error.
Prompted by #30029.
This is preparation for #28891, which adds a bunch more helpers around
"struct iovec", at which point this really deserves its own .c/.h file.
The idea is that we sooner or later can consider "struct iovec" as an
entirely generic mechanism to reference some binary blob, and is the
go-to type for this purpose whenever we need one.
Let's support enumerating over devices that match all of the given
properties instead of any of the given properties by adding a new
function sd_device_enumerator_add_match_property_required() which
specifies properties that should all be matched instead of just one.
Fixes#28372
path_simplify_full()/path_simplify() are changed to allow a NULL path, for
which a NULL is returned. Generally, callers have already asserted before that
the argument is nonnull. This way path_simplify_full()/path_simplify() and
path_simplify_alloc() behave consistently.
In sd-device.c, logging in device_set_syspath() is intentionally dropped: other
branches don't log.
In mount-tool.c, logging in parse_argv() is changed to log the user-specified
value, not the simplified string. In an error message, we should show the
actual argument we got, not some transformed version.
Follow-up for 381f6d4ba5.
When the function is called, the device may be already removed, and
another device has the same syspath. Such situation can occur when a
partition removed and another is created. In that case, the sysfs paths
of the removed and newly created partitions can be same, but their
devnums are different, and thus the database files corresponding to the
devices are also different.
Fixes#27981.
Recent gcc versions have started to trigger false positive
maybe-uninitialized warnings. Let's make sure we initialize
variables annotated with _cleanup_ to avoid these.
strstrafter() is like strstr() but returns a pointer to the first
character *after* the found substring, not on the substring itself.
Quite often this is what we actually want.
Inspired by #27267 I think it makes sense to add a helper for this,
to avoid the potentially fragile manual pointer increment afterwards.
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.
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.
For some (corner) cases, it might be desirable to disable the generation of
some persistent storage symlinks that 60-persistent-storage.rules creates.
For example on big setups with a high number of partitions which uses the same
label name, this can result in a noticeable slow-down in the (re)start of the
udevd as there are many contenders for the symlink /dev/disk/by-partlabel.
However it's currently pretty hard to overwrite just some specific part of the
rule file. Indeed one need to copy and modify the whole rule file in /etc but
will lost any upcoming updates/fixes that the distro might release in the
future.
With this simple patch, one can now disable the generation of the
"by-partlabel" symlinks (for example) with the following single rule:
$ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/99-no-by-partlabel.rules
ENV{ID_PART_ENTRY_NAME}=="?*", SYMLINK-="disk/by-partlabel/$env{ID_PART_ENTRY_NAME}"
Closes#24607.
Otherwise, when a new syspath is assigned to the sd-device object,
sd_device_get_sysname() or _sysnum() will provide an outdated device
name or number.
-1 was used everywhere, but -EBADF or -EBADFD started being used in various
places. Let's make things consistent in the new style.
Note that there are two candidates:
EBADF 9 Bad file descriptor
EBADFD 77 File descriptor in bad state
Since we're initializating the fd, we're just assigning a value that means
"no fd yet", so it's just a bad file descriptor, and the first errno fits
better. If instead we had a valid file descriptor that became invalid because
of some operation or state change, the other errno would fit better.
In some places, initialization is dropped if unnecessary.
If an attribute is read but the value is not used (i.e. ret_value is NULL),
then sd_device_get_sysattr_value() mistakenly frees the read data even though
it is cached internally.
