Now that the necessary functions from log.h have been moved to macro.h,
we can stop including log.h in macro.h. This requires modifying source
files all over the tree to include log.h instead.
Doesn't really matter since the two unicode symbols are supposedly
equivalent, but let's better follow the unicode recommendations to
prefer greek small letter mu, as per:
https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr25
The name "def.h" originates from before the rule of "no needless abbreviations"
was established. Let's rename the file to clarify that it contains a collection
of various semi-related constants.
The calculation for used memory in oomd_system_context_acquire is given
by MemTotal - MemFree from /proc/meminfo. This is too strict of a
calculation because it does not consider memory that is still available
for starting new applictions without swapping (MemAvailable). As a
result, systemd-oomd can start to kill processes before it is necessary.
This is more apparent on systems with low swap space.
Instead, compute 'used' memory as MemTotal - MemAvailable in
oomd_system_context_acquire and procfs_memory_get (which is used by
oomd_cgroup_context_acquire). And, rename oomd_mem_free_below to
oomd_mem_available_below for clarity.
From packit/rawhide-arm64 logs:
Assertion 'limit >= INT_MAX || get_process_ppid(limit+1, NULL) == -ESRCH' failed at src/test/test-process-util.c:855, function test_get_process_ppid(). Aborting.

The kernel has a few different limits. In particular kernel.threads-max can be
set to some lower value, and kernel.pid_max can be set to a higher value. This
is nice because it reduces PID reuse, even if the number of threads that is
allowed is limited. But the tests assumed that we cannot have a thread with
PID above MIN(kernel.threads-max, kernel.pid_max-1), which is not valid.
So let's rework the whole thing: let's expose the helpers to read
kernel.threads-max and kernel.pid_max, and print what they return in tests.
procfs_tasks_get_limit() was something that is only used in tests, and wasn't
very well defined, so let's drop it.
Fixes#21193.
Let's define two helpers strdupa_safe() + strndupa_safe() which do the
same as their non-safe counterparts, except that they abort if called
with allocations larger than ALLOCA_MAX.
This should ensure that all our alloca() based allocations are subject
to this limit.
afaics glibc offers three alloca() based APIs: alloca() itself,
strndupa() + strdupa(). With this we have now replacements for all of
them, that take the limit into account.
procfs_memory_get_current is renamed to procfs_memory_get_used, because
"current" can mean anything, including total memory, used memory, and free
memory, as long as the value is up to date.
No functional change.
This is preparation for emulating the "usage_usec" keyed attribute of
the "cpu.stat" property of the root cgroup from data in /proc. Similar,
for emulating the "memory.current" attribute.
