We nowadays support unprivileged invocation of systemd-nspawn +
systemd-vmspawn, but there was no support for discovering suitable disk
images (i.e. no per-user counterpart of /var/lib/machines). Add this
now, and hook it up everywhere.
Instead of hardcoding machined's, importd's, portabled's, sysupdated's
image discovery to RUNTIME_SCOPE_SYSTEM I introduced a field that make
the scope variable, even if this field is always initialized to
RUNTIME_SCOPE_SYSTEM for now. I think these four services should
eventually be updated to support a per-user concept too, this is
preparation for that, even though it doesn't outright add support for
this.
This is for the largest part not user visible, except for in nspawn,
vmspawn and the dissect tool. For the latter I added a pair of
--user/--system switches to select the discovery scope.
This tries to get rid of most manual sigprocmask() changes, in favour
of:
1. The SD_EVENT_SIGNAL_PROCMASK flag to sd_event_add_signal()
2. The sd_event_set_signal_exit() call for handling SIGTERM/SIGINT
3. Move masking of SIGWINCH into ptyfwd, out of nspawn/vmspawn/run
And while we are at it get rid of a bunch of event source fields whose
lifetime is bound to the sd_event object they belong to anyway, and make
use of the "floating" event source feature of sd-event instead.
It's time. sd-json was already done earlier in this cycle, let's now
make sd-varlink public too.
This is mostly just a search/replace job of epical proportions.
I left some functions internal (mostly IDL handling), and I turned some
static inline calls into regular calls.
nscd is known to be racy [1] and it was already deprecated and later dropped in
Fedora a while back [1,2]. We don't need to support obsolete stuff in systemd,
and the cache in systemd-resolved provides a better solution anyway.
We announced the plan to drop nscd in d44934f378.

The option is kept as a stub without any effect to make the transition easier.
One major omission in machine's logic so far was that the GC was only
run at startup and on the check-idle timeout, which is really slow.
Let's make this more like the GC logic in homed or logind: make sure we
run it in a close-by event loop cycle.
This commit adds the new varlink interface io.systemd.Machine at
/run/systemd/machine/io.systemd.Machine with a single method Register
It supports all combinations of RegisterMachine[WithSSH,WithNetwork] all
under the same method.
Let's raise our supported baseline a bit: CLOCK_BOOTTIME started to work
with timerfd in kernel 3.15 (i.e. back in 2014), let's require support
for it now.
This will raise our baseline only modestly from 3.13 → 3.15.
Previously the mkdir_label() family of calls was implemented in
src/shared/mkdir-label.c but its functions partly declared ins
src/shared/label.h and partly in src/basic/mkdir.h (!!). That's weird
(and wrong).
Let's clean this up, and add a proper mkdir-label.h matching the .c
file.
Most sd_notify() calls are like log_info() — the result is only informative
and if they fail, it's best ignore this. But if a call with READY=1 fails,
the unit may enter a failed state, so we should warn about this. Similarly
for FSTOREREMOVE=1: the manager may be left with a stale fd, at least wasting
resources.
The old name originates when this was used to discover "machine" images,
as managed by machined/machinectl. But nowadays this is also used by
portable services and system extensions, hence let's use a more generic
name for this API. Taking inspiration from "dissect-image.[ch]", let's call
this "discover-image.[ch]".
This is pure renaming, no other changes.
Let's clean up hostname_is_valid() a bit: let's turn the second boolean
argument into a more explanatory flags field, and add a flag that
accepts the special name ".host" as valid. This is useful for the
container logic, where the special hostname ".host" refers to the "root
container", i.e. the host system itself, and can be specified at various
places.
let's also get rid of machine_name_is_valid(). It was just an alias,
which is confusing and even more so now that we have the flags param.
Let's make sure the first hashmap we destroy also frees all machines,
because otherwise when freeing the other hashmaps we'll try to
deregister the contained machines from the hashmaps already destroyed.
This way, we can extend the macro a bit with stuff pulled in from other
headers without this affecting everything which pulls in macro.h, which
is one of our most basic headers.
This is just refactoring, no change in behaviour, in prepartion for
later changes.
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.
A couple of minor modernizations:
1. Don't unnecessarily export functions we don't call outside of
machined.c
2. Use cleanup logic for the manager object.
3. Propagate errors properly from manager_new(). So far if
sd_event_new() returns EMFILE/ENFILE for some reason we would have
logged that as log_oom(), which isn#t right, really.
4. Handle SIGTERM/SIGINT cleanly. It's easy, and prettier then letting
the kernel just abort us. It also makes it possible to valgrind
machined properly.
