--introspect-cli follows the same deferred pattern as --help: parse_argv()
only records the action, and it is executed in the same place where
ACTION_HELP and ACTION_VERSION are handled.
The help is looked up by explicit name: in the multicall configuration
the systemd and systemd-executor commands share one binary, so the
"first COMMAND" default would depend on link order.
The "This program takes no positional arguments." line is dropped from
the help output — the default "[OPTION…]" synopsis already says so.
(And also, this is not quite true. It does take positional args when
called as init.)
We use symbols provided by unistd.h without including it. E.g.
open(), close(), read(), write(), access(), symlink(), unlink(), rmdir(),
fsync(), syncfs(), lseek(), ftruncate(), fchown(), dup2(), pipe2(),
getuid(), getgid(), gettid(), getppid(), pipe2(), execv(), _exit(),
environ, STDIN_FILENO, STDOUT_FILENO, STDERR_FILENO, F_OK, and their
friends and variants, so on.
Currently, unistd.h is indirectly included mainly in the following two paths:
- through missing_syscall.h, which is planned to covert to .c file.
- through signal.h -> bits/sigstksz.h, which is new since glibc-2.34.
Note, signal.h is included by sd-eevent.h. So, many source files
indirectly include unistd.h if newer glibc is used.
Currently, our baseline on glibc is 2.31. We need to support glibc older
than 2.34, but unfortunately, we do not have any CI environments with
such old glibc. CIFuzz uses glibc-2.31, but it builds only fuzzers, and
many files are even not compiled.
To make sure everything still compiles, we add a preliminary include
of forward.h to tests.h to make sure it is included in every test source
file. We'll clean up the tests.h includes in a later commit.
We also add a <errno.h> include to errno-list.h to keep test-errno-list.c
compiling. It'll be removed again when we clean up includes in src/basic.
Split out of #37344.
This has been depracted since v254 (2023). Let's kill it for
good now, it has been long enough with 2y. Noone has shown up who wants
to keep it. And given it doesn't work in SB world anyway, and is not
measured is quite problematic security wise.
When we are running in a container, we parse the command line of PID1 in
proc_cmdline_parse() or friends. Previously, first we merge the command
line nulstr as a single string, and then split by using
extract_first_word(). That's not only redundant, but also unsafe when
the command line argument contain a space.
This drops the redundant steps, hence we can safely parse arguments with
space.
I changed imports of util.h to initrd-util.h, or added an import of
initrd-util.h, to keep compilation working. It turns out that many files didn't
import util.h directly.
When viewing the patch, don't be confused by git rename detection logic:
a new .c file is added and two functions moved into it.
C macros are nasty. We use them, but we try to be conservative with
them. In particular passing literal, complex code blocks as argument is
icky, because of "," handling of C, and also because it's quite a
challange for most code highlighters and similar. Hence, let's avoid
that. Using macros for genreating functions is OK but if so, the
parameters should be simple words, not full code blocks.
hence, rework DEFINE_CUSTOM_TEST_MAIN() to take a function name instead
of code block as argument.
As side-effect this also fixes a bunch of cases where we might end up
returning a negative value from main().
Some uses of DEFINE_CUSTOM_TEST_MAIN() inserted local variables into the
main() functions, these are replaced by static variables, and their
destructors by the static destructor logic.
This doesn't fix any bugs or so, it's just supposed to make the code
easier to work with and improve it easthetically.
Or in other words: let's use macros where it really makes sense, but
let's not go overboard with it.
(And yes, FOREACH_DIRENT() is another one of those macros that take
code, and I dislike that too and regret I ever added that.)
This converts to TEST macro in less trivial cases. This is mostly
due to having an intro or outro before/after the actual tests.
Some notable changes:
- add a "test" to make sure the hashmap and ordered_hashmap tests
from different compilation units are actually run in test-hashmap.c
- make root arg a global var in test-install-root.c
- slightly rework an EFI specific test in test-proc-cmdline.c
- usage of saved_argv/saved_argc in test-process-util.c
- splitting test-rlimit-util.c into several tests
- moving the hwdb open check into intro in test-sd-hwdb.c
- condense several "tests" into one in test-udev-util.c
In general we almost never hit those asserts in production code, so users see
them very rarely, if ever. But either way, we just need something that users
can pass to the developers.
We have quite a few of those asserts, and some have fairly nice messages, but
many are like "WTF?" or "???" or "unexpected something". The error that is
printed includes the file location, and function name. In almost all functions
there's at most one assert, so the function name alone is enough to identify
the failure for a developer. So we don't get much extra from the message, and
we might just as well drop them.
Dropping them makes our code a tiny bit smaller, and most importantly, improves
development experience by making it easy to insert such an assert in the code
without thinking how to phrase the argument.
Don't assume that 4MB can be allocated from stack since there could be smaller
DefaultLimitSTACK= in force, so let's use malloc(). NUL terminate the huge
strings by hand, also ensure termination in test_lz4_decompress_partial() and
optimize the memset() for the string.
Some items in /proc and /etc may not be accessible to poor unprivileged users
due to e.g. SELinux, BOFH or both, so check for EACCES and EPERM.
/var/tmp may be a symlink to /tmp and then path_compare() will always fail, so
let's stick to /tmp like elsewhere.
/tmp may be mounted with noexec option and then trying to execute scripts from
there would fail.
Detect and warn if seccomp is already in use, which could make seccomp test
fail if the syscalls are already blocked.
Unset $TMPDIR so it will not break specifier tests where %T is assumed to be
/tmp and %V /var/tmp.
In various circumstances, overriding the kernel commandline can be inconvenient.
People have different bootloaders, and e.g. the grub config can be pretty scary.
grubby helps, but it isn't always available.
This option adds an alternative mechanism that can quite convenient on EFI
systems. cmdline settings have higher priority, because they can be (usually)
changed on the bootloader prompt.
$SYSTEMD_EFI_OPTIONS can be used to override, same as $SYSTEMD_PROC_CMDLINE.
It if of course related to /proc/cmdline parsing, but is higher-level
functionality built on top of it. It should be in shared/ because it
is something to be used by pid1 and related utilities, not something for
level-level libraries.
Comes with tests.
Also add direct test for $SYSTEMD_PROC_CMDLINE.
In test-proc-cmdline, "true" was masquerading as PROC_CMDLINE_STRIP_RD_PREFIX,
fix that. Also, reorder functions to match call order.
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.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
This improves kernel command line parsing in a number of ways:
a) An kernel option "foo_bar=xyz" is now considered equivalent to
"foo-bar-xyz", i.e. when comparing kernel command line option names "-" and
"_" are now considered equivalent (this only applies to the option names
though, not the option values!). Most of our kernel options used "-" as word
separator in kernel command line options so far, but some used "_". With
this change, which was a source of confusion for users (well, at least of
one user: myself, I just couldn't remember that it's systemd.debug-shell,
not systemd.debug_shell). Considering both as equivalent is inspired how
modern kernel module loading normalizes all kernel module names to use
underscores now too.
b) All options previously using a dash for separating words in kernel command
line options now use an underscore instead, in all documentation and in
code. Since a) has been implemented this should not create any compatibility
problems, but normalizes our documentation and our code.
c) All kernel command line options which take booleans (or are boolean-like)
have been reworked so that "foobar" (without argument) is now equivalent to
"foobar=1" (but not "foobar=0"), thus normalizing the handling of our
boolean arguments. Specifically this means systemd.debug-shell and
systemd_debug_shell=1 are now entirely equivalent.
d) All kernel command line options which take an argument, and where no
argument is specified will now result in a log message. e.g. passing just
"systemd.unit" will no result in a complain that it needs an argument. This
is implemented in the proc_cmdline_missing_value() function.
e) There's now a call proc_cmdline_get_bool() similar to proc_cmdline_get_key()
that parses booleans (following the logic explained in c).
f) The proc_cmdline_parse() call's boolean argument has been replaced by a new
flags argument that takes a common set of bits with proc_cmdline_get_key().
g) All kernel command line APIs now begin with the same "proc_cmdline_" prefix.
h) There are now tests for much of this. Yay!
This stripping is contolled by a new boolean parameter. When the parameter
is true, it means that the caller does not care about the distinction between
initrd and real root, and wants to act on both rd-dot-prefixed and unprefixed
parameters in the initramfs, and only on the unprefixed parameters in real
root. If the parameter is false, behaviour is the same as before.
Changes by caller:
log.c (systemd.log_*): changed to accept rd-dot-prefix params
pid1: no change, custom logic
cryptsetup-generator: no change, still accepts rd-dot-prefix params
debug-generator: no change, does not accept rd-dot-prefix params
fsck: changed to accept rd-dot-prefix params
fstab-generator: no change, custom logic
gpt-auto-generator: no change, custom logic
hibernate-resume-generator: no change, does not accept rd-dot-prefix params
journald: changed to accept rd-dot-prefix params
modules-load: no change, still accepts rd-dot-prefix params
quote-check: no change, does not accept rd-dot-prefix params
udevd: no change, still accepts rd-dot-prefix params
I added support for "rd." params in the three cases where I think it's
useful: logging, fsck options, journald forwarding options.
