Let's introduce a common implementation of a function that checks
whether we are booted on a kernel with systemd-stub that has TPM PCR
measurements enabled. Do our own userspace measurements only if we
detect that.
PCRs are scarce and most likely there are projects which already make
use of them in other ways. Hence, instead of blindly stepping into their
territory let's conditionalize things so that people have to explicitly
buy into our PCR assignments before we start measuring things into them.
Specifically bind everything to an UKI that reported measurements.
This was previously already implemented in systemd-pcrphase, but with
this change we expand this to all tools that process PCR measurement
settings.
The env var to override the check is renamed to SYSTEMD_FORCE_MEASURE,
to make it more generic (since we'll use it at multiple places now).
This is not a compat break, since the original env var for that was not
included in any stable release yet.
This commit adds support for attaching extra metadata to log
messages written to the journal via log.h. We keep track of a
thread local log context in log.c onto which we can push extra
metadata fields that should be logged. Once a field is no longer
relevant, it can be popped again from the log context.
On top of this, we then add macros to allow pushing extra fields
onto the log context.
LOG_CONTEXT_PUSH() will push the provided field onto the log context
and pop the last field from the log context when the current block
ends. LOG_CONTEXT_PUSH_STRV() will do the same but for all fields in
the given strv.
Using the macros is as simple as putting them anywhere inside a block
to add a field to all following log messages logged from inside that
block.
void myfunction(...) {
...
LOG_CONTEXT_PUSH("MYMETADATA=abc");
// Every journal message logged will now have the MYMETADATA=abc
// field included.
}
For convenience, there's also LOG_CONTEXT_PUSHF() to allow constructing
the field to be logged using printf() syntax.
log_context_new()/log_context_free() can be used to attach a log context
to an async operation by storing it in the associated userdata struct.
When we dissect images automatically, let's be a bit more conservative
with the file system types we are willing to mount: only mount common
file systems automatically.
Explicit mounts requested by admins should always be OK, but when we do
automatic mounts, let's not permit barely maintained, possibly legacy
file systems.
The list for now covers the four common writable and two common
read-only file systems. Sooner or later we might want to add more to the
list.
Also, it might make sense to eventually make this configurable via the
image dissection policy logic.
This is useful to force off fancy unicode glyph use (i.e. use "->"
instead of "→"), which is useful in tests where locales might be
missing, and thus control via $LC_CTYPE is not reliable.
Use this in TEST-58, to ensure the output checks we do aren't confused
by missing these glyphs being unicode or not.
This reverts commit 1f22621ba3.
As described in the reverted commit, we don't want to get rid of the check
completely. But the check requires opting-in by setting SYSTEMD_IN_INITRD=lenient,
which is cumbersome and doesn't seem to actually happen.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2137631 is caused by systemd refusing
to treat the system as an initrd because overlayfs is used. Let's revert this
approach and do something that doesn't require opt-in instead.
I don't think it makes sense to keep support for "SYSTEMD_IN_INITRD=lenient" or
"SYSTEMD_IN_INITRD=auto". To get "auto" behaviour, just unset the option. And
"lenient" will be reimplemented as a better check. Thus the changes to the
option interface are completely reverted.
We also add an environment variable $SYSTEMD_JOURNAL_COMPACT that
can be used to disable compact mode if needed (similar to
$SYSTEMD_JOURNAL_KEYED_HASH).
There are some file systems mounted below /sys/ that are not actually
sysfs, i.e. are not arranged in a sysfs/kobject style. Let's refuse
those early. (Example, /sys/fs/cgroup/ and similar.)
(Also, let's add an env var for this, so that it can be turned off for
test cases.)
The test for the variable is added in test-systemctl-enable because there we
can do it almost for free, and the variable is most likely to be used with
'systemctl enable --root' anyway.
/dev/urandom is seeded with RDRAND. Calling genuine_random_bytes(...,
..., 0) will use /dev/urandom as a last resort. Hence, we gain nothing
here by having our own RDRAND wrapper, because /dev/urandom already is
based on RDRAND output, even before /dev/urandom has fully initialized.
Furthermore, RDRAND is not actually fast! And on each successive
generation of new x86 CPUs, from both AMD and Intel, it just gets
slower.
This commit simplifies things by just using /dev/urandom in cases where
we before might use RDRAND, since /dev/urandom will always have RDRAND
mixed in as part of it.
And above where I say "/dev/urandom", what I actually mean is
GRND_INSECURE, which is the same thing but won't generate warnings in
dmesg.
This is supposed to be used by package/image builders such as mkosi to
speed up building, since it allows us to suppress sync() inside a
container.
This does what Debian's eatmydata tool does, but for a container, and
via seccomp (instead of LD_PRELOAD).
This adds support for dm integrity targets and an associated
/etc/integritytab file which is required as the dm integrity device
super block doesn't include all of the required metadata to bring up
the device correctly. See integritytab man page for details.
I have no idea if this is going to cause rendering problems, and it is fairly
hard to check. So let's just merge this, and if it github markdown processor
doesn't like it, revert.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1893417 for the back story:
the fallback hostname matters a lot in certain environments. Right now the only
way to configure the fallback hostname is by recompiling systemd, which is
obviously problematic in case when the fallback hostname shall differ between
different editions of the same distro that share a single compiled rpm.
By making this overridable through an envvar, we're providing an escape hatch
without making this a top-level api. Later on a way to set this through
os-release is added, but I think the approach with the variable is still
useful. It it very convenient for testing, or to override settings only in a
particular service, etc.
