This is just paranoia. In all these cases we don't really care about the
trailing NUL byte. But if there's space for it dns_label_unescape() is
going to insert it, and that's a good safety strategy.
This is a follow-up to c29c3adefa8cd859f8cb87d9ad62f3d77b7cd102 which
fixed an actual bug, unlike this commit, which is just paranoia.
With <para><filename>…</filename></para>, we get a separate "paragraph" for
each line, i.e. entries separated by empty lines. This uses up a lot of space
and was only done because docbook makes it hard to insert a newline. In some
other places, <literallayout> was used, but then we cannot indent the source
text (because the whitespace would end up in the final page). We can get the
desired result with <simplelist>.
With <simplelist> the items are indented in roff output, but not in html
output. In some places this looks better then no indentation, and in others it
would probably be better to have no indent. But this is a minor issue and we
cannot control that.
(I didn't convert all spots. There's a bunch of other man pages which have two
lines, e.g. an executable and service file, and it doesn't matter there so
much.)
The integration tests use /etc/rc.d/init.d if it exists
or falls back to /etc/init.d,
while the mkosi.build.chroot script dereferenced /etc/init.d.
This produces inconsistent results, as sometimes an image can be made
that has systemd built to expect /etc/init.d but /etc/rc.d/init.d
also exists.
locale files are not generated on-demand in Fedora like they are in
Debian-like systems and are typically installed from package instead.
This is necessary for the locale tests,
which expect en_US.UTF-8 to be available.
Then, all nexthops managed by networkd really exist (unless the kernel
silently removes a nexthop).
This is the same for nexthop already done by
3c283289ae and
0a0c2672db (for address), and
5d098f5d36 (for neighbor).
The kernel manages nexthops by their IDs. Previously networkd manages
nexthops in three ways:
- by the corresponding link, if a nexthop has ifindex,
- by the manager, if a nexthop does not have ifindex,
- by the manager with their IDs.
This unifies the three managements of nexthops into one, and use the
same way as the kernel uses.
This is the one for nexthop already done by
aa9626ee3b for neighbor.
If a nexthop is requested without a valid ID, then nexthop_acquire_id()
assigns an unused ID. So, at the time nexthop_configure() is called, the
ID is always valid.
Same as $KERNEL_INSTALL_BYPASS, but for hwdb. This will speed up
cross architecture image builds in mkosi as I can disable package
managers from running the costly hwdb update stuff in qemu user
mode and run it myself with a native systemd-hwdb with --root=.
This is gets the resource limits off a specified process, and is very
similar to prlimit() with a NULL new_rlimit argument. In fact, it tries
that first. However, it then falls back to use /proc/$PID/limits. Why?
Simply because Linux prohibits access to prlimit() for processes with a
different UID, but /proc/$PID/limits still works.
This is preparation to allow nspawn to run unprivileged.
