Sometimes it makes sense to hard kill a client if we die. Let's hence
add a third FORK_DEATHSIG flag for this purpose: FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGKILL.
To make things less confusing this also renames FORK_DEATHSIG to
FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGTERM to make clear it sends SIGTERM. We already had
FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGINT, hence this makes things nicely symmetric.
A bunch of users are switched over for FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGKILL where we
know it's safe to abort things abruptly. This should make some kernel
cases more robust, since we cannot get confused by signal masks or such.
While we are at it, also fix a bunch of bugs where we didn't take
FORK_DEATHSIG_SIGINT into account in safe_fork()
varlink_dispatch() is a simple wrapper around json_dispatch() that
returns clean, standards-compliant InvalidParameter error back to
clients, if the specified JSON cannot be parsed properly.
For this json_dispatch() is extended to return the offending field's
name. Because it already has quite a few parameters, I then renamed
json_dispatch() to json_dispatch_full() and made json_dispatch() a
wrapper around it that passes the new argument as NULL. While doing so I
figured we should also get rid of the bad= argument in the short
wrapper, since it's only used in the OCI code.
To simplify the OCI code this adds a second wrapper oci_dispatch()
around json_dispatch_full(), that fills in bad= the way we want.
Net result: instead of one json_dispatch() call there are now:
1. json_dispatch_full() for the fully feature mother of all dispathers.
2. json_dispatch() for the simpler version that you want to use most of
the time.
3. varlink_dispatch() that generates nice Varlink errors
4. oci_dispatch() that does the OCI specific error handling
And that's all there is.
This reworks the image discovery logic, and conceptually allows DDIs
that are both confext and sysext to exist. Previously we'd only extract
one type of exension data from a DDI, with this we allow to extract both
if both exist.
This doesn't add support for true "multi-modal" DDIs, that qualify as
various things at once, it just lays some ground work that ensures we at
least can dissect such images.
This reworks 484d26dac1 quite a bit.
This changes systemd-dissect's JSON output, but given the
version with the fields it changes/dops has never been released (as the
above patch was merged post-v254) this shouldn't be an issue.
This adds support for the new fsmount() logic of the kernel: we'll first
create an unattached fsmount fd, and then in a second step attach this
to some real file system inode – as opposed to attaching file system
directly. The benefit of this is that we can pass the open fsmount fds
over some sockets if need be, to isolate the mounting code from the
attaching code.
Let's ake sure we check confexts against the confext api level, and
sysext against the sysext api level.
Previously the test would simply be skipped for confexts...
when provided `--root=` was failing for `status`:
```
$ systemd-sysext --root=/mnt status
Failed to open '/usr/.systemd-sysext/extensions': No such file or directory
```
path was not relative to the given `--root` - same goes for the `need_reload`
as it was inspired from the `verb_status` section.

This metadata (EXTENSION_RELOAD_MANAGER) can be set to "1" to reload the manager
when merging/refreshing/unmerging a system extension image. This can be useful in case the sysext
image provides systemd units that need to be loaded.
With `--no-reload`, one can deactivate the EXTENSION_RELOAD_MANAGER metadata interpretation.

Confexts should not contain code, so mount confexts with noexec.
We cannot mount invidial extensions as noexec, as the overlay ignores
it and bypasses it, we need to use the flag on the whole overlay for
it to be effective.
But given there are legacy scripts still shipped in /etc, allow to
override it with --noexec=false.
The confext concept is an extension of the existing sysext concept and
allows to extend the host's filesystem or a unit's filesystem with signed
images that add new files to the /etc/ directory using OverlayFS.
The release file that accompanies the confext images needs to be
host compatible to be able to be merged into the host /etc/ directory.
This commit checks for version compatibility between the image file and
the host file.
Adds a new image type called IMAGE_CONFEXT which is similar to IMAGE_SYSEXT but works
for the /etc/ directory instead of /usr/ and /opt/. This commit also adds the ability to
parse the release file that is present with the confext image in /etc/confext-release.d/
directory.
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.
Curently, these two flags were implied by dissect_loop_device(), but
that's not right, because this means systemd-gpt-auto-generator will
dissect the root block device with these flags set and that's not
desirable: the generator should not cause the partition devices to be
created (we don't intend to use them right-away after all, but expect
udev to find/probe them first, and then mount them though .mount units).
And there's no point in opening the partition devices, since we do not
intend to mount them via fds either.
Hence, rework this: instead of implying the flags, specify them
explicitly.
While we are at it, let's also rename the flags to make them more
descriptive:
DISSECT_IMAGE_MANAGE_PARTITION_DEVICES becomes
DISSECT_IMAGE_ADD_PARTITION_DEVICES, since that's really all this does:
add the partition devices via BLKPG.
DISSECT_IMAGE_OPEN_PARTITION_DEVICES becomes
DISSECT_IMAGE_PIN_PARTITION_DEVICES, since we not only open the devices,
but keep the devices open continously (i.e. we "pin" them).
Also, drop the DISSECT_IMAGE_BLOCK_DEVICE combination flag, since it is
misleading, i.e. it suggests it was appropriate to specify on all
dissected blocking devices, but that's precisely not the case, see the
systemd-gpt-auto-generator case. My guess is that the confusion around
this was actually the cause for this bug we are addressing here.

I changed imports of util.h to initrd-util.h, or added an import of
initrd-util.h, to keep compilation working. It turns out that many files didn't
import util.h directly.
When viewing the patch, don't be confused by git rename detection logic:
a new .c file is added and two functions moved into it.
All users were setting this to some static string (usually "-"), so let's
simplify things by not doing strdup, but instead limiting callers to a fixed
set of values. In preparation for the next commit, the function is renamed from
"empty" to "replacement", because it'll be used for more than empty fields. I
didn't do the whole string-table setup, because it's all used internally in one
file and this way we can immediately assert if an invalid value is passed in.
Some callers were (void)ing the error, others were ignoring it, and others
propagating. It's nicer to remove the boilerplate.
Note, currently, for each call of dissect_loop_device_and_warn(), the
specified name is equivalent to the path passed to loop_device_make_by_path().
Hence, this should not change the current behavios.
Let's rework how we lock loopback block devices in two ways:
1. Lock a separate fd, instead of the main block device fd. We already
did that for our internal locking when allocating loopback block
devices, but do so for the exposed locking (i.e.
loop_device_flock()), too, so that the lock is independent of the
main fd we actually use of IO.
2. Instead of locking the device during allocation of the loopback
device, then unlocking it (which will make udev run), and then
re-locking things if we need, let's instead just keep the lock the
whole time, to make things a bit safer and faster, and not have to
wait for udev at all. This is done by adding a "lock_op" parameter to
loop device allocation functions that declares the initial state of
the lock, and is one of LOCK_UN/LOCK_SH/LOCK_EX. This change also
shortens a lot of code, since we allocate + immediately lock loopback
devices pretty much everywhere.
This reverts a major chunk of 75d7e04eb4
Now that the loopback device code already destroys the partitions we
don't have to do this here anymore.
I am sure the right place to delete the partitions is in the loopback
code, since we really only should do that for loopback devices, see
bug #24431, and not on "real" block devices.
I am also not convinced dropping partitions the dissection logic doesn't
care about is a good idea, after all. The dissection stuff should
probably not consider itself the "owner" of the block devices it
analyzes, but take a more passive role: figure out what is what, but not
modify it.

When closing a loop device, the kernel will asynchronously remove
the probed partitions. This can lead to race conditions where we
try to reuse a partition device that still needs to be removed by
the kernel. To avoid such issues, let's explicitly try to remove
any partitions using BLKPG_DEL_PARTITION when we're done with an
image.
To make sure we don't try to remove partitions when we want them
to remain (e.g. systemd-dissect --mount), we add
dissected_image_relinquish() in a similar vein to loop_device_relinquish()
and decrypted_image_relinquish().
