Let's fold get_user_creds_clean() into get_user_creds(), and introduce a
flags argument for it to select "clean" behaviour. This flags parameter
also learns to other new flags:
- USER_CREDS_SYNTHESIZE_FALLBACK: in this mode the user records for
root/nobody are only synthesized as fallback. Normally, the synthesized
records take precedence over what is in the user database. With this
flag set this is reversed, and the user database takes precedence, and
the synthesized records are only used if they are missing there. This
flag should be set in cases where doing NSS is deemed safe, and where
there's interest in knowing the correct shell, for example if the
admin changed root's shell to zsh or suchlike.
- USER_CREDS_ALLOW_MISSING: if set, and a UID/GID is specified by
numeric value, and there's no user/group record for it accept it
anyway. This allows us to fix#9767
This then also ports all users to set the most appropriate flags.
Fixes: #9767
[zj: remove one isempty() call]
This is a bit like the info link in most of GNU's --help texts, but we
don't do info but man pages, and we make them properly clickable on
terminal supporting that, because awesome.
I think it's generally advisable to link up our (brief) --help texts and
our (more comprehensive) man pages a bit, so this should be an easy and
straight-forward way to do it.
tmpfiles now passes an O_PATH fd to btrfs_subvol_make_fd() under the
assumption it will accept it like mkdirat() does. So far this assumption
was wrong, let's correct that.
Without that tmpfiles' on btrfs file systems failed systematically...
Looked for definitions of functions using the *_compare_func() suffix.
Tested:
- Unit tests passed (ninja -C build/ test)
- Installed this build and booted with it.
Macro returns -1, 0, 1 depending on whether a < b, a == b or a > b.
It's safe to use on unsigned types.
Add tests to confirm corner cases are properly covered.
Drop __extension__, since we don't use gcc -Wpedantic or -ansi.
Reformat code for spacing. Add spaces after commas almost everywhere.
Reindent code blocks in macro definitions, for consistency.
When clients don't follow protocol and use the same object from
different threads, then we previously would silently corrupt memory.
With this assert we'll fail with an assert(). This doesn't fix anything
but certainly makes mis-uses easier to detect and debug.

This flag mimics what "O_NOFOLLOW|O_PATH" does for open(2) that is
chase_symlinks() will not resolve the final pathname component if it's a
symlink and instead will return a file descriptor referring to the symlink
itself.
Note: if CHASE_SAFE is also passed, no safety checking is performed on the
transition done if the symlink would have been followed.
machined exposes the pseudo-container ".host" as a reference to the host
system, and this means "machinectl login .host" and "machinectl shell
.host" get your a login/shell on the host. systemd-run currently doesn't
allow that. Let's fix that, and make sd-bus understand ".host" as an
alias for connecting to the host system.
If 'v' is negative, it's wrong to add the decimal to it, as we'd
actually need to subtract it in this case. But given that we don't want
to allow negative vaues anyway, simply check earlier whether what we
have parsed so far was negative, and react to that before adding the
decimal to it.
We often open the parent directory of a path. Let's add a common helper
for that, that shortens our code a bit and adds some extra safety
checks, for example it will fail if used on the root directory (which
doesn't really have a parent).
The helper is actually generalized from a function in btrfs-util.[ch]
which already existed for this purpose.
Remove "arbitrary named hierarchies" from the list of things that
cg_kernel_controllers() might return, and clarify that "name="
pseudo-controllers are not included in the returned list.
/proc/cgroups does not contain "name=" pseudo-controllers, and
cg_kernel_controllers() makes no effort to enumerate them via a different
mechanism.
These custom macros make the expression go through a function, in order
to prevent ASSERT_SIDE_EFFECT false positives on our macros such as
assert_se() and assert_return() that cannot be disabled and will always
evaluate their expressions.
This technique has been described and recommended in:
https://community.synopsys.com/s/question/0D534000046Yuzb/suppressing-assertsideeffect-for-functions-that-allow-for-sideeffects
Tested by doing a local cov-build and uploading the resulting tarball to
scan.coverity.com, confirmed that the ASSERT_SIDE_EFFECT false positives
were gone.
key_serial_t is defined in keyutil.h, which wasn't included in the header list
in the test, so the test always failed. We were always compiling stuff with
!HAVE_KEY_SERIAL_T.
We could try to add keyutil.h to the test, but then we'd have to first check if
it is available, which just doesn't seem worth the trouble.
key_serial_t should always be defined as int32_t. Let's keep the uncoditional
define, since repeated compatible typedefs are not a problem, and it allows us
to compile even if the header file is missing. If there's ever a change in the
definition, we'll have to adjust the code for the different type anyway, and
our compiler will tell us.
Using _GNU_SOURCE is better because that's how we include the headers in the
actual build, and some headers define different stuff when it is defined.
sys/stat.h for example defines 'struct statx' conditionally.
