(This also removes support for booting into the EFI firmware setup
without logind. That's because otherwise the non-EFI fallback logind
implements can't work.)
Fixes: #9896
The option cursor-file takes a filename as argument. If the file exists and
contains a valid cursor, this is used to start the output after this position.
At the end, the last cursor gets written to the file.
This allows for an easy implementation of a timer that regularly looks in the
journal for some messages.
journalctl --cursor-file err-cursor -b -p err
journalctl --cursor-file audit-cursor -t audit --grep DENIED
Or you might want to walk the journal in steps of 10 messages:
journalctl --cursor-file ./curs -n10 --since=today -t systemd
adds a fully safe way how apps can pin files into /tmp temporarily, excepting them from the tmpfiles aging algorithm, based on BSD file locks on dirs we descend into
Let services use a private UTS namespace. In addition, a seccomp filter is
installed on set{host,domain}name and a ro bind mounts on
/proc/sys/kernel/{host,domain}name.
This adds /usr/local/lib/udev/rules.d to the search path on non-split-usr systems.
On split-usr systems, the paths with /usr/-prefixes are added too.
In the past, on split-usr systems, it made sense to only load rules from
/lib/udev/rules.d, because /usr could be mounted late. But we don't support running
without /usr since 80758717a6, so in practice it doesn't matter whether the
rules files are in /lib/udev/rules.d or /usr/lib/udev/rules.d. Distributions
that maintain the illusion of functional split-usr are welcome to simply not put any
files in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/.
In practice this doesn't change much, but it makes udev more consistent with the
rest of the systemd suite.
/usr/local/lib/systemd/dnssd is now also included in the search path. This
path is of limited usefulness, but it makes sense to be consistent.
Documentation is updated to match. Outdated advice against drop-ins in /usr
is removed.
standard-conf.xml is currently included by:
man/binfmt.d.xml
man/environment.d.xml
man/modules-load.d.xml
man/sysctl.d.xml
man/coredump.conf.xml
man/journal-remote.conf.xml
man/journal-upload.conf.xml
man/journald.conf.xml
man/logind.conf.xml
man/networkd.conf.xml
man/resolved.conf.xml
man/systemd-sleep.conf.xml
man/systemd-system.conf.xml
All those programs actually use CONF_PATHS_NULSTR or CONF_PATHS_STRV,
so this changes the documentation to match code.
