Explanation:
"Please note the login session may be limited to a stub
process or two. User processes may instead be started from their
systemd user manager, e.g. GUI applications started using DBus
activation, as well as service processes which are shared between
multiple logins of the same user."
The most glaring example being when you run commands from gnome-terminal,
or as you see nowadays, "gnome-terminal-server".
*_get_session() is still currently used (directly or indirectly) by Xorg,
Weston etc. running within the session scope. That setup is perfectly
functional, although code will be more generally useful if it is able to
run outside the session scope.[1]

Re-order the man pages a bit at the same time. This is to avoid having the
first and titular entry introduce the session concept, and then immediately
try and persuade you not to use it :).
The units that are not loaded don't have dropin_paths set. This
currently results in units that have fragments to always have

The error message corresponds to EILSEQ is "Invalid or incomplete
multibyte or wide character", and is not suitable in this case.
So, let's show a custom error message when the function
dynamic_creds_realize() returns -EILSEQ.
In the past we introduced this property just for tmp.mount. However on
todays systems usually there are many more tmpfs mounts. Most notably
mounts backing XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for each user.
Let's generalize what we already have for tmp.mount and implement the
ordering After=swap.target for all tmpfs based mounts.
Commit 5248e7e1f1
(resolved,nss-myhostname: use _gateway for the gateway) changed how the
gateway is resolved. Reflect the change in documentation.
Close#7084.
By vectorizing parse_field() the chain of parse_field() calls in
output_short() can be replaced with a single call receiving a description
of the desired fields and their targets.
While at it, eliminate the repeated strlen() calls performed on constant
field names by making parse_field() receive the field length, and storing
it in the ParseFieldVec at compile time.
Also sort the output_short() fields so the short ones are tried first, for
a minor efficiency gain.
In addition to making the code less repetitive, gcc in my tests now inlines
the parse_fieldv() call in output_short().
It always bothered me a bit that unit-name.[ch] contains so many
definitions that aren't really have much to do with unit nameing, for
example all the unit state definitions.
With this patch unit-name.[ch] is split into two: the file now contains
only the unit naming related operations, and everything else is split
out into a new set of files unit-def.[ch]. That's mostly unit state
stuff as well as dbus path and interface name operations.
No functional changes. This just moves code around.
(Note as both .c files include each other's headers this doesn't make
the build simpler or anything. All it does is make the C files a bit
shorter, and medicate my pretend OCD)
The environment variables we've serialized can quite possibly contain
characters outside the set allowed by env_assignment_is_valid(). In
fact, my environment seems to contain a couple of these:
* TERMCAP set by screen contains a '\x7f' character
* BASH_FUNC_module%% variable has a '%' character in name
Strict check of environment variables name and value certainly makes sense for
unit files, but not so much for deserialization of values we already had
in our environment.
This makes systemd supports the case that DynamicUser=yes and
static user and group exist such that uid and gid of them are different.
We only refuse the operation when user does not exist but the group
with the same name exists.
Fixes#7013.
To mimic MODEL_ID variable built for ATA and SCSI devices, add rules
to add MODEL_ID variable for NVMe devices.
TEST: Check on a system with NVMe device that MODEL_ID variable is
present:
udevadm info --query=all -n /dev/nvme0n1p1 | grep ID_MODEL
and
udevadm info --query=all -n /dev/nvme0n1p1 | grep ID_MODEL
return:
E: ID_MODEL=SAMSUNG...
We generally use the casing "Namespace" for the word, and that's visible
in a number of user-facing interfaces, including "RestrictNamespace=" or
"JoinsNamespaceOf=". Let's make sure to use the same casing internally
too.
As discussed in #7024
We should be careful when talking about "units" and "unit files". The
latter should be the concept on disk, and the former, the loaded version
of it. However, as a single unit file can result in multiple loaded
units (think templates), and a units can also exist with no unit file at
all (think .device units), we should be precise.
As symlinks are created on unit files rather than units (as symlinks are
an fs object, and unit files are too, but units are not), let's say so
here.
