When watching a given pathspec, systemd unconditionally installs
IN_ATTRIB watches to track the link count of the resolved file. This
way, we are notified if the watched path disappears, even if the
resolved file inode is not removed.
Similarly, systemd installs inotify watches on each parent directory, to
be notified when the specified path appears. However, for these watches
IN_ATTRIB is an unnecessary addition to the mask. In inotify, IN_ATTRIB
on a directory is emitted whenever the attributes of any child changes,
which, for many paths, has the potential to cause a high number of
spurious wakeups in systemd. Let's remove IN_ATTRIB from the mask when
installing watches on the parent directories of the specified path.
22 characters in three colums + overhead slightly exceeds the available
width on terminals with 80 columns, causing each row to wrap to two lines.
Reduce the item width to 20 to fit even the list of ~600 timezones.
* Remove extra period at end of unit description.
Having an extra period at the end of this unit description makes log entries pertaining to it appear weirdly, as it seems the default expectation is that there is not to be a period at the end of a unit description.
e.g.: `systemd[1]: Started Displays emergency message in full screen..`
I don't know why yet, but TEST-73-LOCALE can take more than 10
minutes. Until we figure out why, let's give it a higher priority
so it doesn't bottleneck the test run.
Otherwise fixfiles will try to relabel it which could potentially
lead to disaster. We also change the recommendation in HACKING.md
to set the default so that TEST-06-SELINUX can override it.
This ensures that even in case the distro repository has newer
versions, the locally built packages are preferred and installed,
even to the point of downgrading already installed ones.
This is needed especially for future stable branches, when the
distros will have a newer version.
* stub: mem fixes in devicetree addon handling
Two bugs here: The elements are of size `DevicetreeAddon`, not `size_t`,
and `[]` binds stronger than `*`. This means the first element is ok,
but the second corrupts the stack.
Found this while refactoring #32463
An smbios object with no variable part is a special case, it's just
suffixed with two NUL btes. handle that properly.
This is inspired by a similar fix from https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/29726

We switch to PROJECT_VERSION instead of PROJECT_VERSION_FULL where
we report our version and which is likely being parsed to avoid
breaking compat. If we didn't, the output would change from systemd
255 to systemd 255.1 which could break various tools.
If the io.systemd.DynamicUser or io.systemd.Machine files exist,
but nothing is listening on them, the nss-systemd module returns
ECONNREFUSED and systemd-sysusers fails to creat the user/group.
This is problematic when ran by packaging scripts, as the package
assumes that after this has run, the user/group exist and can
be used. adduser does not fail in the same situation.
Change sysusers to print a loud warning but otherwise continue
when NSS returns an error.
The XDG base dir spec adopted ~/.local/state/ as a thing a while back,
and we updated our docs in b4d6bc63e6, but
forgot to to update the table at the bottom to fully reflect the update.
Fix that.
This file doesn't document features of systemd, but is more a of a
general description that generalizes/modernizes FHS. As such, the items
listed in it weren't "added" in systemd versions, they simply reflect
general concepts independent of any specific systemd version. hence
let's drop this misleading and confusing version info.
Or in other words, the man page currently claims under "/usr/": "Added
in version 215." – Which of course is rubbish, the directory existed
since time began.
This also rebreaks all paragaphs this touches.
No content changes.
The previous commit tries to extract a substring from the
extension-release suffix, but that is not right, it's only the
images that need to be versioned and extracted, use the extension-release
suffix as-is. Otherwise if it happens to contain a prefix that
matches the wrong image, it will be taken into account.

The GIT_VERSION is changed to use VERSION_TAG, but in case of cross build
for src/boot/efi, it's not set, causing build error because the compiler cannot
know it's a macro thus treating it as some variable and error out.

For MountImages=, if the source is a block device, it will most likely reside
in /dev. It should be also possible to mount a static device file system in
place of (or part of) /dev. So let's allow paths starting with /dev as an
exception for MountImages=.
Let's mention the new way to install the latest changes without
rebuilding the image. Let's also remove the duplicate info about
distribution packages that is already mentioned in its own section.
These are not actually needed or installed, so delete them from the
build directory, so that inside an image one can do:
apt install --reinstall /work/build/*.deb

The new link-executor-shared option is similar to the existing
link-udev-shared: when set to false, we link to the static versions of our
internal libraries.
The resulting exuctor binary is fairly large, about as large as libsystemd-core
(14 MB without lto, 8 with lto).
This is intended as a workaround for the fuckup with the pinned executor
binary:
when an upgrade is performed, the package manager will install new version of
the libraries and new version of the code, and some time later reexecute the
managers. This creates a window when the pinned executor binary will fail to
execute. There are two factors which make the issue easier to hit:
- when the distribution uses a finely-grained shared-lib-tag. E.g. Fedora
uses version-release as the tag, which means that the issue occurs on
every package upgrade. This is the right thing to do, because the
ABI of our internal libraries is not stable at all, so replacing the
library from a different version in place creates a window where our
programs may crash or misbehave.
- when the distribution doesn't immediately reexec all the managers after
upgrade. In early versions of systemd, we used to hammer the machine during
upgrade, doing daemon-reexecs repeatedly. This works, but is ugly and
wasteful. Doing the reexecs while the upgrade is in progres also creates a
window where a mix of old and new configs or both is loaded. Users are
particularly annoyed by those reloads if there is some issue in the
configuration causing us to emit warnings on every reexec. Doing the
reexecs once after the new configuration and libraries have been put
in place is nicer.
The pinning of the executor binary breaks upgrades and in particular
it penalizes the distributions which make use of the features which
were previously added to avoid bugs and inefficiency during upgrades.
When the executor is linked statically, there is a smaller chance that it'll
fail to load libraries. The issue can still occur because other libraries, not
our own, are linked dynamically.
By itself, this is not useful. I'm making this a separate commit to
make debugging easier. It turns out that meson does static libraries
using references, so the "static library" a tiny stub stub that refers
to the object files on disk and this has negligible cost:
$ ls -lhd build/src/core/libsystemd-core-257.{a,so}
-rw-r--r-- 1 zbyszek zbyszek 36K Jul 3 16:54 build/src/core/libsystemd-core-257.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 zbyszek zbyszek 6.1M Jul 3 16:54 build/src/core/libsystemd-core-257.so
Our variables for internal libraries are named 'libfoo' for the shared lib
variant, and 'libfoo_static' for the static lib variant. The only exception was
libbasic, because we didn't have a shared variant for it. But let's rename it
for consitency. This makes the build config easier to understand.
Previously, the order was quite chaotic, even sometimes interleaved with
entirely unrelated switches. Let's clean this up and use the same order
as in the spec.
This doesn't change anything real, but I think it's a worthy clean-up in
particular as this order is documented as the PCR measurement order of
these sections, hence there's actually a bit of relevance to always
communicate the same order everywhere.
