As @yuwata correctly points out, this became broken when log_debug()
started returning -EIO. I wanted to preserve this pattern, but it turns
out it is not very widely used, and preserving it would make the whole
thing, already quite complicated, even more complex.
log_debug() is made like log_info() and friends, and returns void.
Let's assert if we ever happen to pass 0 to one of the log functions.
With the preceding commit to return -EIO from log_*(), passing 0 wouldn't
affect the return value any more, but it is still most likely an error.
The unit test code is an exception: we fairly often pass the return value
to print it, before checking what it is. So let's assert that we're not
passing 0 in non-test code. As with the previous check for %m, this is only
done in developer mode. We are depending on external code setting
errno correctly for us, which might not always be true, and which we can't
test, so we shouldn't assert, but just handle this gracefully.
I did a bunch of greps to try to figure out if there are any places where
we're passing 0 on purpose, and couldn't find any.
The one place that failed in tests is adjusted.
About "zerook" in the name: I wanted the suffix to be unambiguous. It's a
single "word" because each of the words in log_full_errno is also meaningful,
and having one term use two words would be confusing.
This is only done in developer mode. It is a pretty rare occurence that we
make this kind of mistake. And even if it happens, the result is just a misleading
error message. So let's only do the check in non-release builds.
This silences some warnigns where gcc thinks that some variables are
unitialized. One particular case:
../src/journal/journald-server.c: In function 'ache_space_refresh':
../src/journal/journald-server.c:136:28: error: 'vfs_avail' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
136 | uint64_t vfs_used, vfs_avail, avail;
| ^~~~~~~~~
../src/journal/journald-server.c:136:18: error: 'vfs_used' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
136 | uint64_t vfs_used, vfs_avail, avail;
| ^~~~~~~~
cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
which is caused by
d = opendir(path);
if (!d)
return log_full_errno(errno == ENOENT ? LOG_DEBUG : LOG_ERR,
errno, "Failed to open %s: %m", path);
if (fstatvfs(dirfd(d), &ss) < 0)
return log_error_errno(errno, "Failed to fstatvfs(%s): %m", path);
For some reason on aarch64 gcc thinks we might return non-negative here. In
principle errno must be set in both cases, but it's hard to say for certain.
So let's make sure that our code flow is correct, even if somebody forgot to
set the global variable somewhere.
As suggested in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/11484#issuecomment-775288617.
This does not touch anything exposed in src/systemd. Changing the defines there
would be a compatibility break.
Note that tests are broken after this commit. They will be fixed in the next one.
This effectively reverts 41d1f469cf.
Before this, e.g., `networkctl reload` invoked by `systemctl reload systemd-networkd.service`
does not produce debugging logs even if systemd.log-level=debug is set. This fixes
the issue.
log_debug still returns 0. I think it is legitimate to use 'return log_debug()' to
return 0. It is different than the other functions, since we often want to supress
errors logged at debug level. This case is quite common in the codebase and
we could use 'return log_debug_errno()' to make the code more consise.
For all other variants, a separate return line is required.
Previous commit changes all the non-conforming instances, now we can make it mandatory.
Presently, CLI utilities such as systemctl will check whether they have a tty
attached or not to decide whether to parse /proc/cmdline or EFI variable
SystemdOptions looking for systemd.log_* entries.
But this check will be misleading if these tools are being launched by a
daemon, such as a monitoring daemon or automation service that runs in
background.
Make log handling of CLI tools uniform by never checking /proc/cmdline or EFI
variables to determine the logging level.
Furthermore, introduce a new log_setup_cli() shortcut to set up common options
used by most command-line utilities.

Ideally, coccinelle would strip unnecessary braces too. But I do not see any
option in coccinelle for this, so instead, I edited the patch text using
search&replace to remove the braces. Unfortunately this is not fully automatic,
in particular it didn't deal well with if-else-if-else blocks and ifdefs, so
there is an increased likelikehood be some bugs in such spots.
I also removed part of the patch that coccinelle generated for udev, where we
returns -1 for failure. This should be fixed independently.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
If we log to the pty that is configured as stdin/stdout/stderr of the
container too early we risk filling it up in full before we start
processing the pty from the parent process, resulting in deadlocks.
Let's hence keep a copy of the original tty we were started on before
setting up stdin/stdout/stderr, so that we can log to it, and keep using
it as long as we can.
Since the kernel's pty internal buffer is pretty small this actually
triggered deadlocks when we debug logged at lot from nspawn's child
processes, see: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/9024#issuecomment-390403674
With this change we won't use the pty at all, only the actual payload we
start will, and hence we won't deadlock on it, ever.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
"noreturn" is reserved and can be used in other header files we include:
[ 16s] In file included from /usr/include/gcrypt.h:30:0,
[ 16s] from ../src/journal/journal-file.h:26,
[ 16s] from ../src/journal/journal-vacuum.c:31:
[ 16s] /usr/include/gpg-error.h:1544:46: error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘)’ token
[ 16s] void gpgrt_log_bug (const char *fmt, ...) GPGRT_ATTR_NR_PRINTF(1,2);
Here we include grcrypt.h (which in turns include gpg-error.h) *after* we
"noreturn" was defined in macro.h.
log_open_console() did not switch from stderr to /dev/console, when
"always_reopen_console" was set. It was necessary to call
log_close_console() first.
By contrast, log_open() did switch between e.g. journald and kmsg according
to the value of "prohibit_ipc".
Let's fix log_open() to respect the values of all the log options, and we
can make log_close_*() private.
Also log_close_console() is changed. There was some precaution, avoiding
closing the console fd if we are not PID 1. I think commit 48a601fe made
a little mistake in leaving this in, and it only served to confuse
readers :).
Also I changed systemd-shutdown. Now we have log_set_prohibit_ipc(), let's
use it to clarify that systemd-shutdown is not expected to try and log via
journald (which it is about to kill). We avoided ever asking it to, but
it's more convenient for the reader if they don't have to think about that.
In that sense, it's similar to using assert() to validate a function's
arguments.
This removes LOG_TARGET_SAFE. It's made redundant by the new
"prohibit-ipc" logging flag, as it used to have a similar effect: avoid
logging to the journal/syslog, i.e. any local services in order to avoid
deadlocks when we lock from PID 1 or its utility processes (such as
generators).
All previous users of LOG_TARGET_SAFE are switched over to the new
setting. This makes things a bit safer for all, as not even the
SYSTEMD_LOG_TARGET env var can be used to accidentally log to the
journal anymore in these programs.
If set, we'll avoid logging to any IPC log targets, i.e. syslog or the
journal, but allow stderr, kmsg, console logging.
This is useful as PID 1 wants to turn this off explicitly as long as the
journal is not up.
Previously we'd open/close the log stream to these services whenever
needed but this is incompatible with the "open_when_needed" logic
introduced in #6915, which might open the log streams whenever it likes,
including possibly inside of the child process we fork off that'll
become journald later on. Hence, let's make this all explicit, and
instead of managing when we open/close log streams add a boolean that
clearly prohibits the IPC targets when needed, so that opening can be
done at any time, but will honour this.
See: #7985
This doesn't matter much, and we don't rely on it, but I think it's much
nicer if we log_set_target() and log_set_upgrade_syslog_to_journal() can
be called in either order and have the same effect.
The macro used utf8.h functions without including that. Let's clean this
up, by moving that code inside of log.c.
Let's also make the call return -EINVAL in all cases. This is in line
with log_oom() which also returns a well-defined error code even though
it doesn#t take one.
log.h really should only include the bare minimum of other headers, as
it is really pulled into pretty much everything else and already in
itself one of the most basic pieces of code we have.
Let's hence drop inclusion of:
1. sd-id128.h because it's entirely unneeded in current log.h
2. errno.h, dito.
3. sys/signalfd.h which we can replace by a simple struct forward
declaration
4. process-util.h which was needed for getpid_cached() which we now hide
in a funciton log_emergency_level() instead, which nicely abstracts
the details away.
5. sys/socket.h which was needed for struct iovec, but a simple struct
forward declaration suffices for that too.
Ultimately this actually makes our source tree larger (since users of
the functionality above must now include it themselves, log.h won't do
that for them), but I think it helps to untangle our web of includes a
tiny bit.
(Background: I'd like to isolate the generic bits of src/basic/ enough
so that we can do a git submodule import into casync for it)
This makes things a bit easier to read I think, and also makes sure we
always use the _unlikely_ wrapper around it, which so far we used
sometimes and other times we didn't. Let's clean that up.
And let's make use of it to implement two new unit settings with it:
1. LogLevelMax= is a new per-unit setting that may be used to configure
log priority filtering: set it to LogLevelMax=notice and only
messages of level "notice" and lower (i.e. more important) will be
processed, all others are dropped.
2. LogExtraFields= is a new per-unit setting for configuring per-unit
journal fields, that are implicitly included in every log record
generated by the unit's processes. It takes field/value pairs in the
form of FOO=BAR.
Also, related to this, one exisiting unit setting is ported to this new
facility:
3. The invocation ID is now pulled from /run/systemd/units/ instead of
cgroupfs xattrs. This substantially relaxes requirements of systemd
on the kernel version and the privileges it runs with (specifically,
cgroupfs xattrs are not available in containers, since they are
stored in kernel memory, and hence are unsafe to permit to lesser
privileged code).
/run/systemd/units/ is a new directory, which contains a number of files
and symlinks encoding the above information. PID 1 creates and manages
these files, and journald reads them from there.
Note that this is supposed to be a direct path between PID 1 and the
journal only, due to the special runtime environment the journal runs
in. Normally, today we shouldn't introduce new interfaces that (mis-)use
a file system as IPC framework, and instead just an IPC system, but this
is very hard to do between the journal and PID 1, as long as the IPC
system is a subject PID 1 manages, and itself a client to the journal.
This patch cleans up a couple of types used in journal code:
specifically we switch to size_t for a couple of memory-sizing values,
as size_t is the right choice for everything that is memory.
Fixes: #4089Fixes: #3041Fixes: #4441
This we can then make use in execute.c to make error logging a bit less
special when preparing for process execution, as we can still log but
don't have any fds open continously.
This adds a new recognizable log message for each unit invocation that
contains structured information about consumed resources of the unit as
a whole after it terminated. This is particular useful for apps that
want to figure out what the resource consumption of a unit given a
specific invocation ID was.
The log message is only generated for units that have at least one
XyzAccounting= property turned on, and currently only covers IP traffic and CPU
time metrics.
