This allows us to build and install after booting without having to
build a new image. Together with
https://github.com/systemd/mkosi/pull/2601 and after enabling
RuntimeBuildSources=yes, after booting, "meson install -C /work/build"
can be used to do an incremental build and install. This won't build
proper packages, but will be invaluable for having a quick compile,
edit, test cycle without having to rebuild the image all the time.
On my system, networkd would report that interface ve-rawhide is "Failed"
without anything in the logs:
systemd-networkd[651095]: ve-rawhide: Trying to reconfigure the interface.
systemd-networkd[651095]: ve-rawhide: Gained IPv6LL
systemd-networkd[651095]: ve-rawhide: Link DOWN
systemd-networkd[651095]: ve-rawhide: Lost carrier

At debug level:
systemd-networkd[799993]: dhcp-server-lease/ve-rawhide:1:1: Missing object field 'Address'.
$ jq </var/lib/systemd/network/dhcp-server-lease/ve-rawhide

}

}
I'm not sure why "Address" is missing, but anyway, in this case, we should ignore the
lease file rather than refusing to configure the interface. Also, warn at the point
where we know what the filename is.
s390x will define both s390x and s390, so exec-personality-s390.service is ran
in both cases but fails on s390x, as the personality returned is s390x.
Split the test and check specifically for s390x.
Consider the following case: a user sets up a minimum rootfs for
file system maintenance work in /run/nextroot/ dir directly. When
they're done, they expect 'systemctl reboot' to perform a full reboot.
But they keep soft-rebooting back to the tmpfs root, until they
find out about $SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_AUTO_SOFT_REBOOT.
So currently, when /run/nextroot/ is a normal dir, pid1 automatically
turns it into a bind mount to soft-reboot into. This is good, but when
combined with automatic soft-reboot it has an arguably unexpected
behavior, since /run/nextroot/ can never go away in such a case.
OTOH, if /run/nextroot/ is a mountpoint in the first place, the mount
is *moved* so a second reboot would not trigger auto soft-reboot.
Let's just make things more friendly to users, and do auto soft-reboot
only if /run/nextroot/ is also a mountpoint.
Only the system manager records soft reboots, and the user session is
restarted anyway so it doesn't suffer from the ID clash issue

With gcc-14.0.1-0.13.fc40, when compiling with -O2, the compiler doesn't understand
that sd_bus_error_setf() always returns negative on error when <name> is provided:

Let's make the assertion a bit more explicit. With this, the warning goes away,
but I think it's more obvious to a human reader too.
When compiled with -O2, the compiler is not happy about dynamic_user_pop() and
would warn about the output variables not being set. It does have a point:
we were doing a cast from ssize_t to int, and theoretically there could be
wraparound. So let's add an explicit check that the cast to int is fine.

This adds a small, socket-activated Varlink daemon that can delegate UID
ranges for user namespaces to clients asking for it.
The primary call is AllocateUserRange() where the user passes in an
uninitialized userns fd, which is then set up.
There are other calls that allow assigning a mount fd to a userns
allocated that way, to set up permissions for a cgroup subtree, and to
allocate a veth for such a user namespace.
Since the UID assignments are supposed to be transitive, i.e. not
permanent, care is taken to ensure that users cannot create inodes owned
by these UIDs, so that persistancy cannot be acquired. This is
implemented via a BPF-LSM module that ensures that any member of a
userns allocated that way cannot create files unless the mount it
operates on is owned by the userns itself, or is explicitly
allowelisted.
