I assumed that unit_name_to_instnace() returns NULL if there is no instance.
In fact it returns "", so the check for instance was wrong.
Also avoid unnecessary call to unit_name_is_valid().
v2:
- do not watch mtime of transient and generated dirs
We'd reload the map after every transient unit we created, which we don't
need to do, since we create those units ourselves and know their fragment
path.
This reworks how we load units from disk. Instead of chasing symlinks every
time we are asked to load a unit by name, we slurp all symlinks from disk
and build two hashmaps:
1. from unit name to either alias target, or fragment on disk
(if an alias, we put just the target name in the hashmap, if a fragment
we put an absolute path, so we can distinguish both).
2. from a unit name to all aliases
Reading all this data can be pretty costly (40 ms) on my machine, so we keep it
around for reuse.
The advantage is that we can reliably know what all the aliases of a given unit
are. This means we can reliably load dropins under all names. This fixes#11972.
It turns out most possible symlinks are invalid, because the type has to match,
and template units can only be linked to template units.
I'm not sure if the existing code made the same checks consistently. At least
I don't see the same rules expressed in a single place.
We were passing 1/4th of the size in bytes as argument. So depending
on the size of the array, either we'd only transfer a subset of values,
or we'd get an alignment error.
With SYSTEMD_LOG_LOCATION=1, it is much more useful to see the location
where the call to bus_log_{parse,create}_error() was made, rather then
the one-line body of the helper function. Also, it's our internal code,
so having a one-line non-inline function doesn't make much sense anyway.
I opted to embed the Bitmap structure directly in the ExitStatusSet.
This means that memory usage is a bit higher for units which don't define
this setting:
Service changes:
/* size: 2720, cachelines: 43, members: 73 */
/* sum members: 2680, holes: 9, sum holes: 39 */
/* sum bitfield members: 7 bits, bit holes: 1, sum bit holes: 1 bits */
/* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
/* size: 2816, cachelines: 44, members: 73 */
/* sum members: 2776, holes: 9, sum holes: 39 */
/* sum bitfield members: 7 bits, bit holes: 1, sum bit holes: 1 bits */
But this way the code is simpler and we do less pointer chasing.
In situations where hibernation is requested but resume= and
resume_offset= kernel parameters are not configured, systemd
will attempt to locate a suitable swap location by inspecting
/proc/swaps. This change will use the first suitable swap with
the highest configured priority.
This code is not part of the public API of sd-netlink, nor used by it
internally and hence should not be in the sd-netlink directory.
Also, move the test case for it to src/test/.
We removed support for foreign services (and ntp-units.d/) in b72ddf0f4.
Support for foreign services was added back in 5d280742, but through an
environment variable.
The problem with the env var approach is that it only works as a mechanism
to select one item, and doesn't work nicely as a mechinism to create a list
of items through drop-ins (because the env var can be easily overridden, but not
extended). Having a list of "ntp providers" is important to be able to reliably disable
all of them when that is requested.
Another problem is that nobody ever bothered to care about our new "standard".
ntp-units.d/ is a nice simple format that works and is already supported by
chrony and ntpd and timedatex. If we were to introduce and ask people to follow
a new standard, there should be some good reason for this. The idea with env
vars has lower functionality, requires systemd-specific syntax. We should just
re-adopt the format that we originally introduced and that seems to work for
everyone, and more on to more interesting problems.

This now becomes:
/etc/systemd/system/eqeqeqeq.service:3: Missing key name before '=', ignoring line.
We generally don't treat syntax error as fatal, but in this case we would
completely refuse to load the file. I think we should treat the the same
as assignment outside of a section, or an unknown key name.
