I expressed the issue I have with parse_tristate_argument()
in #37751: it doesn't add any value to direct use of parse_tristate();
on the contrary, it doesn't support means to reset the arg to "auto"/-1 state.
The mere reason it existed is that we need a int type ret param.
Since the previous attempt to address this mess failed, let's
try to make the function more useful by making it accept "auto".
I figure this is useful on its own.
As requested in
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/40652#discussion_r2831833996,
the function name is suffixed with _with_auto() to establish
that "auto" is handled internally.
Let's prepare for a future where the "systemd-report" tool can do more
than enumerate metrics: let's introduce our usual "verbs" style
interface.
Let's also add a second command right-away: "describe-metrics" shows the
description of the metrics.
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.
