The comment says that it is still in the host's CLONE_NEWUSER namespace,
which is not true if !arg_privileged. Also, it says that the CLONE_NEWNS
namespace was created by clone(), but if !arg_privileged then it was
actually created by nsresource_allocate_userns() and switched into by
setns(). Fix those inaccuracies.
When trying to word it clearly, there are enough commas and nested clauses
that I think it's clearer to break it into a list/table.
The root directory is already mounted with a picked UID shift, hence
it is not necessary to remount with idmap. However, /usr/ is a bind-mount,
hence it must be remounted with idmap.
With this change, now '-U --volatile=yes' works fine.
Fixes#34254.
Previously, remount_idmap() failed as /var/ was already mounted, thus
remounting (strictly speaking, unmounting old root directory) failed
with -EBUSY.
As tmpfs /var/ is mounted with picked UID shift, it should not be
remounted with idmap, but needs to be mounted after the root directory
being remounted.
This makes '-U --volatile=state' work as expected.
When dealing with copying COW images, we have to make a tradeoff:
- Either we don't touch the NOCOW bit on the copied file COW and get
an instant copy because we're able to reflink, but we might get
reduced performance if the source file was COW as COW files and lots
of random writes don't play well together.
- Or we force NOCOW for the copied file, which means we have to do a
full copy as reflinking from COW files to NOCOW files or vice versa
is not supported.
In exec-invoke.c, we've opted for the first option. In nspawn.c and
discover-image.c, we've opted for the second option.
In nspawn, this applies to the --ephemeral option to make ephemeral
copies. In discover-image.c, this applies to cloning images into
/var/lib/machines. Both these features might be used to run many
machines of the same original image. We really don't want to force
a full copy onto users in these scenarios when they're expecting
reflink behavior, leading to them running out of disk space. Instead,
degraded performance in their machines is a much less severe issue,
which they will discover on their own if it affects them, at which
point they can make their original image NOCOW at which point they'll
get both the reflinks and better performance.
Given the above reasoning, let's switch nspawn.c and discover-image.c
to use COPY_NOCOW_AFTER as well instead of enabling NOCOW upfront and
forcing a copy if the original source image is COW.
I don't actually need this anymore since we're going with a
unit based approach for the containers stuff internally so
let's just revert it.
Fixes#34085
This reverts commit ce2291730d.
This allows for example forcing to use /sbin/init instead of always
using /usr/lib/systemd/systemd if it exists. Or it allows using a
different path altogether.
This is similar to what we do for veth interfaces in remove_veth_links().
When a container rebooted, macvlan interfaces created by the previous
boot may still exist in the kernel, and that causes -EADDRINUSE after
reboot.
Hopefully fixes#680.
Since the copy helpers now copy file attributes as well, let's not
explicitly disable copy-on-write anymore when we copy an image. If
the source already has copy-on-write disabled, the copy will have it
disabled as well. Otherwise, the copy will also have copy-on-write
enabled.
This makes sure that reflinks always work as reflink is only supported
if both source and target are copy-on-write or both source and target
are not copy-on-write.
This is preparation for making our Varlink API a public API. Since our
Varlink API is built on top of our JSON API we need to make that public
first (it's a nice API, but JSON APIs there are already enough, this is
purely about the Varlink angle).
I made most of the json.h APIs public, and just placed them in
sd-json.h. Sometimes I wasn't so sure however, since the underlying data
structures would have to be made public too. If in doubt I didn#t risk
it, and moved the relevant API to src/libsystemd/sd-json/json-util.h
instead (without any sd_* symbol prefixes).
This is mostly a giant search/replace patch.
Some people are just sad, sad lost souls who don't like even the tiniest
ray of color in their life. Let's add an env var knob for allowing them
to turn the background tinting off, to drive the last bit of color from
their life so that they can stay in their grey grey life.
- drop unnecessary SYNTHETIC_ERRNO() when the logger does not propagate
error code,
- drop unnecessary '%m' in error message when the error code is
specified with SYNTHETIC_ERRNO(),
- add missing full stop at the end of log message,
- use RET_GATHER(),
- add missing ", ignoring.",
- upeercase the first letter, etc., etc...
When starting a container with --user, the new uid will be resolved and switched to
only in the inner child, at the end of the setup, by spawning getent. But the
credentials are set up in the outer child, long before the user is resolvable,
and the directories/files are made only readable by root and read-only, which
means they cannot be changed later and made visible to the user.
When this particular combination is specified, it is obvious the caller wants
the single-process container to be able to use credentials, so make them world
readable only in that specific case.

The linux/ headers include linux/libc-compat.h that makes sure the
linux/ headers won't redeclare symbols already declared by net/if.h, but
glibc's net/if.h doesn't do that, so if the include order is reversed
we'll end up with a bunch of errors about redeclared stuff:

This also drops remaining workarounds from the last time this issue was
brought up (6f270e6bd8) since they shouldn't be needed anymore if the
order of the includes is the "correct" one. I also added a comment to
each affected include when this is inevitably encountered again in the
future.
