The only reason why ExecSharedRuntime.(var_)tmp_dir might
be suppressed is when (/var)/tmp/ is listed in InaccessiblePaths=,
in which case mount namespace is needed anyways. Moreover,
the current logic imposes a chicken-and-egg problem:
at various places in pid1 we'd need to check whether
the unit runs in a mountns, but the ExecSharedRuntime
may not be allocated for it just yet.
This introduces PinnedResources as a structure combining pinned
references to a root directory, root image, or root mstack. This is not
only easier to work with, but essential to make certain unpriv things
work, as we need some mechanism to pin resources before we drop into a
userns which might possibly not provide access anymore to those
resources.
Hence this does two things: introduce the new structure, and immediately
hook it up so that we pin things properly before dropping into userns,
and then makes use of this after dropping the right way, and enables
unpriv userns operation.
The concept is generic enough to eventually implement extension images +
mount images with the same structure, but in order to keep the changes
managable this is left for another time.
(This also makes one further clean-up: client-side verity-reuse checks
are moved server side if we are unpriv. Previously we'd do them client
side, but they were doomed to fail because of lack of privs. Hence let's
drop the client side if we are unpriv and purely do them server-side in
that case.)
This was originally brought up by @poettering. If the process
loads stuff on demand and flushes them out after each use,
or actively monitors file changes, they can be reloaded
by merely refreshing the resources.
This allows controlling resources to be refreshed before performing
reload, with one extra benefit that in the future we can permit
"seemless reload"s, i.e. no active signaling is done to the main process
after refreshing get updated. This could come in handy for programs
that loads stuff on demand or watches changes via inotify.
There is currently no way to figure out a rate limit was hit on a unit,
as the last result is stripped in order to keep reporting the first
result, which is useful in case of a watchdog failure, which is the
reason why it was changed as such.
But rate limiting is also an important information to provide to
users, so allow the Result property to reflect it when it
happens.

This fixes extensions refreshing + verity-protected DDIs.
TEST-50-DISSECT previously passed because confext refreshing
is tested after live mount, the latter of which used to
load libcryptsetup in pid1.
Since these helper processes aren't spawned in the unit cgroup,
let's explicitly attach unit log context so that all logging gets
attributed to the unit, including the ones done in library calls.
Before doing anything with the root directory file descriptor, let's
make sure we clone it first so that the caller can't mess with mount fd
attributes via mount_setattr() anymore.
We clone during parsing instead of in executor so that the caller can't
mess with the mount fd between invocations.
Closes#35788
This gives access to credentials within ExecCondition=. As described in
ticket #35788, I do have a use-case for this and as noted in the
commit that dropped this[1], this is OK to be revisited if there are
use-cases.

When Type=notify-reload got introduced, it wasn't intended to be
mutually exclusive with ExecReload=. However, currently ExecReload=
is immediately forked off after the service main process is signaled,
leaving states in between essentially undefined. Given so broken
it is I doubt any sane user is using this setup, hence I took a stab
to rework everything:
1. Extensions are refreshed (unchanged)
2. ExecReload= is forked off without signaling the process
3a. If RELOADING=1 is sent during the ExecReload= invocation,
we'd refrain from signaling the process again, instead
just transition to SERVICE_RELOAD_NOTIFY directly and
wait for READY=1
3b. If not, signal the process after ExecReload= finishes
(from now on the same as Type=notify-reload w/o ExecReload=)
4. To accomodate the use case of performing post-reload tasks,
ExecReloadPost= is introduced which executes after READY=1
The new model greatly simplifies things, as no control processes
will be around in SERVICE_RELOAD_SIGNAL and SERVICE_RELOAD_NOTIFY
states.

RootDirectory= but via a open_tree() file descriptor. This allows
setting up the execution environment for a service by the client in
a mount namespace and then starting a transient unit in that execution
environment using the new property.
We also add --root-directory= and --same-root-dir= to systemd-run to
have it run services within the given root directory. As systemd-run
might be invoked from a different mount namespace than what systemd is
running in, systemd-run opens the given path with open_tree() and then
sends it to systemd using the new RootDirectoryFileDescriptor= property.
If socket is used as stdio, we'd currently imply EXEC_PASS_FDS
and dump the whole set of fds to the control processes. This is
pretty much unexpected and unnecessary though, instead let's
pass only the socket fds.
Yes, this is a compat break, but a relatively minor one I'd
argue. And we can always revisit things if users do complain.
The distinction between fdstore and extra fds is only meaningful
to struct Service. As far as executor is concerned they're just
some fds to pass to the service. Let's just merge it hence,
for the sake of simplicity.
Otherwise, e.g. requesting to start a unit that is under stopping may
enter the failed state.
This makes
- rename .can_start() -> .test_startable(), and make it allow to return
boolean and refuse to start units when it returns false,
- refuse earlier to start units that are in the deactivating state, so
several redundant conditions in .start() can be dropped,
- move checks for unit states mapped to UNIT_ACTIVATING from .start() to
.test_startable().
Fixes#39247.
Since c5de7b14ae
file searching implies a new mount api syscall by default,
to trigger automounts.
But, this is not necessary in most cases, e.g. when chasing
syspath in sd-device (actually this causes regression in umockdev,
see https://github.com/martinpitt/umockdev/issues/271).
Another example is reading unit files, especially .network files,
as automount may trigger mounting network filesystems...
Also, when this is used in NSS plugins, programs that load the
plugins may fail because of spuriously configured seccomp. See #38565.
Let's not trigger automount by default, and do only when explicitly
requested.
This introduces CHASE_TRIGGER_AUTOFS, and use it in
- service manager,
- bootctl and finding ESP/xbootldr,
- sysupdate,
- mountfsd,
- systemd-mount.
There may be several more places we should trigger automount, but let's
do that later.
Follow-up for c5de7b14ae.
Fixes#38565.
Replaces #38569.

This reverts commit 490aa05ca1.
As commented https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/38569#discussion_r2284978273,
the commit makes autofs check bypassed. Before the commit, when
CHASE_NO_AUTOFS is set, we did not shortcut chasing paths, and refused
any autofs mount points in the path. However, with the commit, the flag
was swapped but even when CHASE_AUTOFS is unset, the autofs check may be
skipped.
To fix the issue, rather than swapping the flag, we should introduce
another flag, say CHASE_TRIGGER_AUTOFS. This revert the commit, and in a
later commit, the new flag will be introduced.
