A later commit will add transient allocation of user namespaces with
dynamic UID range assignment. That creates certain permission issues.
Let's hence allow them to be handled gracefully in case the 'ignore'
field is set for a mount.
As in the previous commit, also enable the measurement logic when
activating Verity via veritsetup rather than the dissection logic.
The logic stays close to the interface of cryptsetup for measuring the
volume key.
Let's pick the default NvPCR name to use inside of cryptsetup itself, instead
of in the generator. I think this is the better choice, since it means
the default can also be used if the regular verittab generator is used
instead of the gpt-auto generator.
Motivation:
Currently, when setting the default boot pattern, boot assessment status
is not taken into account. This means that with boot assessment enabled,
when an explicit boot entry is configured as the default entry using an
EFI var, as is common for instance in A/B boot schemes, the configured
entry will be booted indefinitly, regardless of the entry's boot
assessment status.
In order to allow for this use case in combination with boot assessment,
we introduce a new `preferred` keyword, both in the config file and in the
bootctl CLI, that acts very similar to the existing `default` keyword but
takes boot assessment into account and never selects any entries that
have been marked as bad.
If the preferred pattern does not resolve to any bootable entry, and a
default pattern is also specified, then the default pattern will be
considered next, and we may then still select a known-bad entry to be
booted.

XDG_SESSION_EXTRA_DEVICE_ACCESS will now take a colon-separated list of
identifiers. For every identifier $ID, the session is granted access to all
devices tagged as "xaccess-$ID" in udev.

This makes it possible to have DNS requests for certain domains routed
differently than normal requests, which is for instance useful when
using policy routing to route traffic over a VPN but DNS requests for
the VPN endpoint itself, should be routed differently.
It doesn't make much sense to configure a firewall mark at the level of
a network interface, but at the level of a DNS delegate it can be very
useful.
When sd_varlink_connect_url() gets an unknown URL we now
check if there is a `$LIBEXECDIR/varlink-bridges/$scheme`
binary and execute it (with the url as the first arguments).
This makes varlink more flexible as it provides a way to
dynamically add "bridges" in LIBEXECDIR/varlink-bridges/. This is
conceptually similar to the libvarlink `varlink --bridge` command
and allows to e.g. call varlink over http{,s} via e.g. the new
varlink-http-bridge.
With a running varlink-http-bridge [0] one can do:
```console
$ varlinkctl call http://localhost:8080/ws/sockets/io.systemd.Hostname \
io.systemd.Hostname.Describe {}
{
"Hostname" : "top",
...
```

Currently, if we're copying a file, we won't copy the owner UID/GID
from the source. If we're copying a directory, we will copy the owner
UID/GID from the source. Let's give users a bit more control over this
behavior by introducing --copy-ownership= which will default to the
current behavior but allows users to explicitly enable/disable copying
of ownership.
This reverts (in spirit) "network/tuntap: deny from owning Tun/Tap interfaces",
commit 940441b44c.
Justification similar as in the previous commit. The check is only
partially connected to the intended purpose and breaks backwards compat
without a sufficient reason.
Alternative fix for #37279.
These expose the two parts of ‘update’, so that update sets can be
acquired (downloaded) and installed (applied) in separate actions at
different times. For example, this could allow a load of update sets to
be acquired when online, and later applied when offline.

This contains the "bootctl install" related work from the #38764 split
out, but also includes the preparatory work already split out into
#40446.
I'll rebase this PR once the prep work is merged.
This has a simple CI test already, and has docs
When a cgroup is selected for termination, send varlink messages
to hooks registered in `/run/systemd/oomd.prekill-hooks/`.
oomd waits up to `PreKillHookTimeoutSec=` seconds for response
before proceeding with the kill.
Previously, setting HibernateDelaySec= would disable ACPI battery trip
point (_BTP) alarms, forcing the system to rely solely on software
polling for battery checks. This could result in the battery draining
to 0% between polling intervals, causing data loss.
Now, when ACPI _BTP is available AND HibernateDelaySec= is set, both
mechanisms work together. The system will hibernate on whichever comes
first: low battery (instant hardware alarm) or the configured timeout.
This also properly respects HibernateOnACPower=no by resetting the
timer while on AC power, matching the documented behavior.

When the extensions for the final system are already set up from the
initrd we should avoid disrupting the boot process with the remount
(which currently isn't atomic) and the daemon reload for
systemd-confext and systemd-sysext. Similarly, when sysupdate ran and
updated extensions it's best to avoid the remount and daemon reload if
no changes are found.
To do this, encode the current extension state in more detail than
before where only the names of the extensions where encoded in the
overlay mount. This can also be used to provide more details about the
extension origin in "systemd-sysext status (--json=)". During the
refresh add a check whether the old state matches the new state and in
this case skip the refresh unless the user provides a flag to always
refresh. Besides the extension name and the resolved path the best
method for identification is the verity hash but that is not available
for plain image files or directories. Therefore, also include data to
check for file/directory replacements. The creation/modification times
are not always real on reproducible images or extracted archive content.
The file handle together with the unique mount ID is the next best
identifier we can use when we have no verity hash. Fall back to an inode
when we get no handle. With the creation/modification time and the path
this should be good enough. Using a unique mount ID is important (with
a fallback to the regular non-unique mount ID) instead of st_dev because
st_dev gets reused too easily, e.g., by a loop device mount and the
mount ID helps to catch this. For the mount ID to be valid it has to be
resolved before we enter the new mount namespace. Thus, it gets provided
by the image dissect logic and handed over to the sysext subprocess
which runs in a new mount namespace.
Luckily, we can rule out online modification of directories or image
files because this is anyway not well supported with overlay mounts, so
we don't do a file checksum nor do we recurse into a directory to look
for the most recently touched files. But, as said, with the
always-refresh flag one can force a reload.

This patch adds a `--ephemeral` option to vmspawn that will turn
on snapshot mode on the qemu disk passed via `--image` or the
directory passed via `--directory`. For disk images it uses the
native mechanism that qemu provides. For directories it (re)uses
the snapshot mechanism that nspawn is using, i.e. it will create
a btrfs snapshot if possible and if not falls back to a traditional
directory copy.
Commit 15b1c33 ("repart: Generate fstab and crypttab late") moved
fstab/crypttab generation to the late stage but this introduced a regression:
it may be necessary to include fstab and crypttab into the generated partition
(e.g. with CopyFiles=). This is incompatible with 'fixate-volume-key' option as
it is impossible to capture LUKS volume key before it gets created but all the
rest should work fine.
Generate crypttab twice: early and late to capture possible changes. There's no
need to do the same for fstab for now, so keep the status quo.
Follow-up for af718e0535
The commit changed the documentation, but the actual impl
was apparently not updated. And the documented behavior
feels a bit off. I think generally "auto"/true should
override $NO_COLOR.
Plus, the test for auto-24bit is at odds with the logic
we merged. I guess it was overlooked after applying
