For unit instances install_info_discover() returns path to the template,
which then generates confusing errors when passed to
do_unit_file_enable():
~# build/systemctl --root=/tmp/systemctl-test.N9ysbz reenable templ1@two.service
Unit name: templ1@two.service; p: /etc/systemd/system/templ1@.service
Removed "/tmp/systemctl-test.N9ysbz/etc/systemd/system/services.target.wants/templ1@two.service".
Failed to reenable templ1@.service, destination unit services.target is a non-template unit.
This can also be seen with a different reproducer using getty@.service
and a simple bind mount to / - there's no error this time, but it tries
to create a symlink for the default instance (from DefaultInstance=tty1),
which is also incorrect:
~# SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug systemctl --root /mnt/bindroot/ reenable getty@test.service
Symlink /mnt/bindroot/etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/getty@tty1.service → /usr/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service already exists

path_simplify_full()/path_simplify() are changed to allow a NULL path, for
which a NULL is returned. Generally, callers have already asserted before that
the argument is nonnull. This way path_simplify_full()/path_simplify() and
path_simplify_alloc() behave consistently.
In sd-device.c, logging in device_set_syspath() is intentionally dropped: other
branches don't log.
In mount-tool.c, logging in parse_argv() is changed to log the user-specified
value, not the simplified string. In an error message, we should show the
actual argument we got, not some transformed version.
Let's be more accurate about what this function does: it checks whether
the underlying reported inode is the same. Internally, this already uses
a better named stat_inode_same() call, hence let's similarly name the
wrapping function following the same logic.
Similar for files_same_at() and path_equal_or_same_files().
No code changes, just some renaming.
The ignore directive specifies to not do anything with the given
unit and leave existing configuration intact. This allows distributions
to gradually adopt preset files by shipping a ignore * preset file.
Chasing symlinks is a core function that's used in a lot of places
so it deservers a less verbose names so let's rename it to chase()
and chaseat().
We also slightly change the pattern used for the chaseat() helpers
so we get chase_and_openat() and similar.
In various tools and services we have a per-system and per-user concept.
So far we sometimes used a boolean indicating whether we are in system
mode, or a reversed boolean indicating whether we are in user mode, or
the LookupScope enum used by the lookup path logic.
Let's address that, in introduce a common enum for this, we can use all
across the board.
This is mostly just search/replace, no actual code changes.
If any query makes it to the end of install_info_follow() then I think symlink_target is set to NULL.
If that is followed by -EXDEV from unit_file_load_or_readlink(), then that causes basename(NULL)
which segfaults pid 1.
This is triggered by eg. "systemctl status crond" in RHEL9 if
/etc/systemd/system/crond.service
-> /ram/etc/systemd/system/crond.service
-> /usr/lib/systemd/system/.crond.service.blah.blah
-> /usr/lib/systemd/system/crond.service
We would set .path in all cases except INSTALL_CHANGE_AUXILIARY_FAILED, where
we would just just .source. This special case is just not worth it, because
we can't easily assert that .path is set. Let's remove this special case to
help the compiler know that .path is actually set.
Avoids a warning with gcc-13.0.1-0.1.fc38.x86_64.
When switching to an alternative alias provider,
the previous one might have been uninstalled or so.
It should be fine for us to overwrite them directly.
Closes#23694
-1 was used everywhere, but -EBADF or -EBADFD started being used in various
places. Let's make things consistent in the new style.
Note that there are two candidates:
EBADF 9 Bad file descriptor
EBADFD 77 File descriptor in bad state
Since we're initializating the fd, we're just assigning a value that means
"no fd yet", so it's just a bad file descriptor, and the first errno fits
better. If instead we had a valid file descriptor that became invalid because
of some operation or state change, the other errno would fit better.
In some places, initialization is dropped if unnecessary.
Trying to disable a unit with no install info is mostly useless, so
adding a warning like we do for enable (with the new dbus method
'DisableUnitFilesWithFlagsAndInstallInfo()'). Note that it would
still find and remove symlinks to the unit in /etc, regardless of
whether it has install info or not, just like before. And if there are
actually files to remove, we suppress the warning.
Fixes#17689
The name "def.h" originates from before the rule of "no needless abbreviations"
was established. Let's rename the file to clarify that it contains a collection
of various semi-related constants.
We treat symlinks to unit files outside of the search path differently from
symlinks to unit files *in* the search path. The former are "linked" unit
files, while the latter are enablement symlinks and such and will be removed
when disabling the unit.
The history of the check for in_search_path() is interesting: this condition
was added already in the first version of the code in
830964834f. Since the beginning, matching
arguments would simply be ignored. I think this is dubious. The man page says:
> Link a unit file that is *not* in the unit file search paths
> into the unit file search path
But for backwards-compat, let's continue to silently do nothing for files
*in* the search path.
The case of symlinks to unit files underneath the search path, but in some
subdirectory, is less clear. We didn't check for this case, so it was
implicitly allowed. But that's just an oversight, we don't want to allow people
to create additional subhierarchies under our hierarchy. Let's check for this
case and refuse.
Closes#24605.
This adds a check for an allocation error for the calls to install_changes_add()
where we're plannig to return success from the call. In cases where we're
returning failure, it doesn't matter as much: the operation will fail anyway,
and if the allocation fails, we'll just get a less descriptive error message.
The machinery to report a good error message only works if the
error was registered with install_changes_add() and a file name. Otherwise
we only get a generic "Op failed: %m" message.
In some places -EINVAL is replaced by -EUCLEAN, so that we get the proper
error message.
The function was written to only return an error from internal allocation
failures, because when using it to create a bus message, we want to distinguish
a failed operation from an allocation error when sending the reply. But it
turns out that the only caller that makes this distinction checks that the
passed-in errno value ('type') is not negative beforehand. So we can make the
function pass 'type' value through, which makes most of the callers nicer.
No functional change.
Typically the _MAX and _INVALID special enum values use the full type as
prefix, even if the actual values of the enum might not. Let's follow
this rule here too.
We can just make this an enum, as long as we ensure it has enough range,
which we can do by adding -ERRNO_MAX as one possible value (at least on
GNU C). We already do that at multiple other places, so let's do this
here too.
'systemctl unmask foo' will try to remove the symlink to /dev/null under /etc/.
But the unit may also be masked by a symlink under /run/generator, in particular
the one created by systemd-debug-generator based on systemd.mask=foo on the
kernel commandline. The unmask call cannot anything about this: even if it removed
the symlink from /run/generator, it'll be recreated on the next daemon-reload.
Thus, we can only warn about it.
Initially, I wanted to check if 'systemctl.mask' is defined on the kernel
command-line, but that's not effective, because such mask symlinks can be
created by other generators based on other conditions. Checking for runtime
mask is "dumber", but is more robust because it doesn't assume who created the
mask and why.
The handling of InstallInfo is the copied from install_info_symlink_wants().
It's pretty ugly, this whole code should be rewritten from scratch.
The message is printed, but the whole operation is still "successful". This
keep backwards compatibility: people might call unmask to remove filesystem
masks even if there's still a cmdline param in place. We allow 'systemctl
mask' to create such a mask, so 'unmask' should be able to remove it.
Fixes#22689.
We had an anonymous enum with values called UNIT_FILE_…, which could easily be
confused with UNIT_FILE_… from UnitFileFlags enum. This commit renames the enum
values and also the variables which refer to them.
