Let's be extra careful whenever we return from recvmsg() and see
MSG_CTRUNC set. This generally means we ran into a programming error, as
we didn't size the control buffer large enough. It's an error condition
we should at least log about, or propagate up. Hence do that.
This is particularly important when receiving fds, since for those the
control data can be of any size. In particular on stream sockets that's
nasty, because if we miss an fd because of control data truncation we
cannot recover, we might not even realize that we are one off.
(Also, when failing early, if there's any chance the socket might be
AF_UNIX let's close all received fds, all the time. We got this right
most of the time, but there were a few cases missing. God, UNIX is hard
to use)
ubsan complains that we add an offset to a NULL ptr here in some cases.
Which isn't really a bug though, since we only use it as the end
condition for a for loop, but we can still fix it...
Fixes: #15522
When a job is skipped due its dependencies not being ready, log
a debug message saying what is holding it back.
This was very useful with transient units timing out to figure
out where the problem was.
Just as log_full already does, check if the log level would result in
logging immediately in the macro in order to avoid doing
unnecessary work that adds up in hot spots.
It's not that I think that "hostname" is vastly superior to "host name". Quite
the opposite — the difference is small, and in some context the two-word version
does fit better. But in the tree, there are ~200 occurrences of the first, and
>1600 of the other, and consistent spelling is more important than any particular
spelling choice.
We use udev to wait for /dev/loopX devices to be fully proped hence we
need an implicit ordering dependency on it, for RootImage= to work
reliably in early boot, too.
Fixes: #14972
The watchdog ping is performed for every iteration of manager event
loop. This results in a lot of ioctls on watchdog device driver
especially during boot or if services are aggressively using sd_notify.
Depending on the watchdog device driver this may have performance
impact on embedded systems.
The patch skips sending the watchdog to device driver if the ping is
requested before half of the watchdog timeout.
Regardless of whether a mount is setup in initrd or int the main system,
the network default dependencies _netdev should still be honored.
IOW if a mount unit use the following options "x-initrd.mount,_netdev", it
should be ordered against initrd-fs.target, network.target,
network-online.target.
/dev/vdb1 /mnt ext4 x-initrd.mount,_netdev defaults 0 0
Before this patch:
Before=umount.target initrd-fs.target
After=system.slice sysroot.mount dev-vdb1.device -.mount systemd-journald.socket blockdev@dev-vdb1.target
After this patch:
Before=initrd-fs.target umount.target
After=network-online.target -.mount blockdev@dev-vdb1.target dev-vdb1.device sysroot.mount system.slice network.target systemd-journald.socket
First After=local-fs-pre.target wasn't described in the man page although it's
part of the default dependencies automatically set by pid1.
Secondly, Before=local-fs.target was only set if the automount unit was
generated from the fstab-generator because the dep was explicitly
generated. It was also not documented as a default dependency.
Fix it by managing the dep from pid1 instead.
fstab-generator was also handling the default ordering dependencies for mount
units setup in initrd. To do that it was turning the defaults dependencies off
completely and ordered the mount unit against either local-fs.target or
initrd-fs.target or initrd-root-fs.target itself.
But it had the bad side effect to also remove all other default dependencies as
well. Thus if an initrd mount was using _netdev, the network dependencies were
missing.
In general fstab-generator shouldn't use DefaultDependecies=no because it can
handle only a small set of the default dependencies the rest are dealt by pid1.
So this patch makes pid1 handle all default dependencies.
This patch changes the way user managers set the default umask for the units it
manages.
Indeed one can expect that if user manager's umask is redefined through PAM
(via /etc/login.defs or pam_umask), all its children including the units it
spawns have their umask set to the new value.
Hence make user units inherit their umask value from their parent instead of
the hard coded value 0022 but allow them to override this value via their unit
file.
Note that reexecuting managers with 'systemctl daemon-reexec' after changing
UMask= has no effect. To take effect managers need to be restarted with
'systemct restart' instead. This behavior was already present before this
patch.
Fixes#6077.
The commit b3ac5f8cb9 has changed the system mount propagation to
shared by default, and according to the following patch:
https://github.com/opencontainers/runc/pull/208
When starting the container, the pouch daemon will call runc to execute
make-private.
However, if the systemctl daemon-reexec is executed after the container
has been started, the system mount propagation will be changed to share
again by default, and the make-private operation above will have no chance
to execute.
This reworks the user validation infrastructure. There are now two
modes. In regular mode we are strict and test against a strict set of
valid chars. And in "relaxed" mode we just filter out some really
obvious, dangerous stuff. i.e. strict is whitelisting what is OK, but
"relaxed" is blacklisting what is really not OK.
The idea is that we use strict mode whenver we allocate a new user
(i.e. in sysusers.d or homed), while "relaxed" mode is when we process
users registered elsewhere, (i.e. userdb, logind, …)
The requirements on user name validity vary wildly. SSSD thinks its fine
to embedd "@" for example, while the suggested NAME_REGEX field on
Debian does not even allow uppercase chars…
This effectively liberaralizes a lot what we expect from usernames.
The code that warns about questionnable user names is now optional and
only used at places such as unit file parsing, so that it doesn't show
up on every userdb query, but only when processing configuration files
that know better.
Fixes: #15149#15090
And similar for other settings that require a writable /var/.
Rationale: if these options are used for early-boot services (such as
systemd-pstore.service) we need /var/ writable. And if /var/ is on the
root fs, then systemd-remount-fs.service is the service that ensures
that /var/ is writable.
This allows us to remove explicit deps in services such as
systemd-pstore.service.
Both fstab-generator and pid1 are duplicating the handling of
"Before=local-fs.target" dependency for mount units.
fstab-generator is correctly skipping this dep if the mount unit is activated
by an automount unit.
However the condition used by pid1 was incorrect and missed the case when a mount
unit uses "x-systemd.automount" since in this case the mount unit should be
(only) ordered against its automount unit counterpart instead.
Scheduling devices after a given unit can be useful to start device *jobs* at a
specific time in the transaction, see commit 4195077ab4.
This (hidden) change was introduced by commit eef85c4a3f.
Functions called from device_setup_unit() already make sure that unit is
enqueued in case it is a new unit or properties exported on the bus have
changed.
This should prevent unnecessary DBus wakeups and associated DBus traffic
when device_setup_unit() was called while reparsing /proc/self/mountinfo
due to the mountinfo notifications. Note that we parse
/proc/self/mountinfo quite often on the busy systems (e.g. k8s container
hosts) but majority of the time mounts didn't change, only some mount
got added. Thus we don't need to generate PropertiesChanged for devices
associated with the mounts that didn't change.
Thanks to Renaud Métrich <rmetrich@redhat.com> for debugging the
problem and providing draft version of the patch.
