The service is supposed to regenerate the catalog index whenever /usr is
updated, but /var is not. Hence the ConditionNeedsUpdate= line should
actually reference /var, as that's where the index file is located.
Let's automatically destory per-unit private temporary directories, as
they are created by PrivateTmp=yes on each boot, if we notice them to be
around, in case they are left-overs from the last boot.

This adds a brief explanation, suggesting the use of "systemd-run -M" to
acquire exit status/code information for the invoked process.
My original plan was to propagate the exit code/status in "machinectl
shell" too, but this would mean we'd have to actively watch the shell's
runtime status, and thus would need full, highly privileged and
continious access to the container's system manager, the way
"systemd-run" does it. This would be quite a departure from the
simplistic, low-priviliged OpenShell() bus call implementation of the
current code, that really just acquires a PTY device with a shell
connected.
Moreover it would blur the lines between the two commands even further,
which I think is not desirable. Hence, from now on:
"machinectl shell" is the full-session, interactive shell for human
users
"systemd-run -M …" is the low-level tool, that supports
on-interactive mode, and is more configurable and suitable for
streaming.

It's not our business to validate invalid user/group names or UID/GID.
Ideally, libc would filter these out, but they don't, hence we have to
filter, but let's not propagate this as error, but simply as "not found"
to the caller.
User name rules are pretty vaguely defined, and the rules defined by
POSIX clash with reality quite heavily (for example, utmp doesn't offer
enough room for user name length, and /usr/bin/chown permits separating
user/group names by a single dot, even though POSIX allows dots being
used in user/group names themselves.) We enforce stricter rules than
POSIX for good reason, and hence in doing so we should not categorically
return EINVAL on stuff we don't consider valid, but other components
might.
Fixes: #4983
In test_resolved_domain_restricted_dns(), add dot domain separator to
negative .lab/.company tests, so that we don't catch these as part of
the host name (like "lxc-labjfr").
Caught in PR #4962
The manpage claimed that ExecStop would be followed immediately by
SIGKILL, whereas the actual behavior is to go through KillMode= and
KillSignal= first.
Fixes#4490
The journalctl man page says: "-m, --merge Show entries interleaved from all
available journals, including remote ones.", but current version of journalctl
doesn't live up to this promise. This patch simply adds
"/var/log/journal/remote" to search path if --merge flag is used.
Should fix issue #3618
Fix wrong condition test in manager_etc_hosts_lookup(), which caused it to
return an IPv4 answer when an IPv6 question was asked, and vice versa.
Also only return success if we actually found any A or AAAA record.
In systemd-resolved.service(8), point out that /etc/hosts mappings only
affect address-type lookups, not other types.
The test case currently disables DNSSEC in resolved, as there is a bug
where "-t MX" fails due to "DNSSEC validation failed" even after
"downgrading to non-DNSSEC mode". This should be dropped once that bug
gets fixed.
Fixes#4801
active_slave:
Specifies the new active slave for modes that support it
(active-backup, balance-alb and balance-tlb).
primary slave:
systemd-networks currently lacks the capability to set the primary slave
in an
active-backup bonding. This is necessary if you prefer one interface
over the
other. A common example is a eth0-wlan0 bonding on a laptop where you'd
want to
switch to the wired connection whenever it's available.

Since nspawn looks for them, importd now downloads them, and mkosi
generates them, let's make sure they also processed correctly on all
machined operations.
Handle properly if /etc is a symlink (i.e. make sure we don't follow the
symlink outside the image). Also follow /etc/resolv.conf if it is a
symlink, and use the resolved path when creating a mount point and
mounting (as both of these operations follow symlinks and rally
shouldn't).
Handle more types of read-only errors as debug-level issues.
verity block devices have two backing devices: the data partition and
the hash partition. Previously the gpt auto-discovery logic would refuse
working on devices with multiple backing devices, losen this up a bit,
to permit them as long as the backing devices are all located on the
same physical media.
This adds a generator and a small service that will look for "roothash="
on the kernel command line and use it for setting up a very partition
for the root device.
This provides similar functionality to nspawn's existing --roothash=
switch.
Change the gpt auto discovery generator to use the same dissector as
nspawn and the rest of the tools. This removes the separate dissector
code that the generator previously had and unifies the relevant code.
In preparation for reusing the image dissector in the GPT auto-discovery
logic, only optionally fail the dissection when we can't identify a root
partition.
In the GPT auto-discovery we are completely fine with any kind of root,
given that we run when it is already mounted and all we do is find some
additional auxiliary partitions on the same disk.
This adds support for a new kernel command line option "systemd.volatile=" that
provides the same functionality that systemd-nspawn's --volatile= switch
provides, but for host systems (i.e. systems booting with a kernel).
It takes the same parameter and has the same effect.
In order to implement systemd.volatile=yes a new service
systemd-volatile-root.service is introduced that only runs in the initrd and
rearranges the root directory as needed to become a tmpfs instance. Note that
systemd.volatile=state is implemented different: it simply generates a
var.mount unit file that is part of the normal boot and has no effect on the
initrd execution.
The way this is implemented ensures that other explicit configuration for /var
can always override the effect of these options. Specifically, the var.mount
unit is generated in the "late" generator directory, so that it only is in
effect if nothing else overrides it.
