So far, machined strictly tracked the "leader" process of a machine,
i.e. the topmost process that is actually the payload of the machine.
Its runtime also defines the runtime of the machine, and we can directly
interact with it if we need to, for example for containers to join the
namespaces, or kill it.
Let's optionally also track the "supervisor" process of a machine, i.e.
the host process that manages the payload if there is one. This is
generally useful info, but in particular is useful because we might need
to communicate with it to shutdown a machine without cooperation of the
payload. Traditionally we did this by simply stopping the unit of the
machine, but this is not doable now that the host machined can be used
to track per-user machines.
In the long run we probably want a more bespoke protocol between
machined and supervisors (so that we can execute other commands too,
such as request cooperative reboots/shutdowns), but that's for later.
Some environments call the concept "monitor" rather than "supervisor" or
use some other term. I stuck to "supervisor" because nspawn uses this,
and ultimately one name is as good as another.
And of course, in other implementations of VM managers of containers
there might not be a single process tracking each VM/container. Because
of this, the concept of a supervisor is optional.
The difference between these two operations are large: one is relatively
superficial: for "registration" all resources remain associated with the
invoking user, only the cgroup is reported to machined which then keeps
track of the machine, too. OTOH "creation" a scope is allocated in
system context, hence the invoked code will be owned by the system, and
its resource usage charged against the system.
Hence, use two distinct polkit actions for this, so that we can relax
access to registration, but keep access to creation tough.
Now that unpriv clients can register machines, let's register their UID
too. This allows us to do two things:
1. make sure the scope delegation is assigned to the right UID (so that
the unpriv user can actually create cgroups below the delegated
scope)
2. permit certain types of access (i.e. killing, or pty access) to the
client without auth if it owns the machine.
We also run in a VM if we're not running as root, yet we weren't
checking this when deciding whether to pass --capability=CAP_BPF or
not. Let's fix that.

This renames and splits link_may_have_ipv6ll() into
link_ipv6ll_enabled_harder() and link_multicast_enabled(),
as they are completely irrelevant to each other.
Also, this makes link_ipv6ll_enabled_harder() work non-Wireguard
interfaces.
Load global sysext/confext from /.extra/global_{sysext,confext} which
systemd-stub puts there from ESP/loader/credentials/*.{sysext,confext}.raw.
Global extensions are handled the exact same way as per-UKI ones.
Systemd-stub support loading addons, credentials, system and configuration
extensions from ESP and while addons and credentials can be both global and
per-UKI, sysext/confext are only per-UKI.
Add support for loading ESP/loader/credentials/*.{sysext,confext}.raw to
systemd-stub.
Note: for backwards compatibility reasons, per-UKI sysexts can also be
*.raw (not only *.sysext.raw) but as global extensions are new, there's
no need to bring this legacy there.
Google Compute Engine are not only virtual but can be also physical
machines. Therefore checking only the dmi is not enough to detect if it
is a virtual machine. Therefore systemd-detect-virt return "google"
instead of "none" in c3-highcpu-metal machine.
SMBIOS will not help us to make the difference as for EC2 machines.
However, GCE use KVM hypervisor for these VM, we can use this
information to detect virtualization. [0]
Issue and changes has been tested on SUSE SLE-15-SP7 images with
systemd-254 for both GCE, bare-metal and VM.

Backticks are good in markdown files, where they signify text to be rendered
with a mono-space font. But our text files doesn't use markdown, and backticks
are just a particularly bad type of quote (ugly, assymetrical, with a special
significance in shell context). Update older NEWS entries to not use them.
The header provides _MIPS_SIM_ABI32 and friends. Glibc indirectly includes
the header through sys/syscall.h or unistd.h, but let's explicitly include
the header where we use _MIPS_SIM_ABI32 and friends.
The header linux/quota.h provides e.g. QIF_DQBLKSIZE or PRJQUOTA, which
is used where the quota-util.h is included.
Let's explicitly include the header with 'IWYU pragma: export' tag.
rpmautospec-rpm-macros is only in EPEL 9 so let's gate it properly
on that by splitting up the epel packages config file into two.
erofs-utils is in EPEL 9 and in CentOS Stream 10.
This new helper takes both a PID and and a pidfd ID, and initializes a
PidRef from it. It ensures they actually belong together and returns an
error if not.
It does not exist for CentOS Stream 10, it's only relevant for CentOS
Stream 9 in some corner cases which don't apply to us, so let's not enable
it to avoid complexity instead of only enabling it for CentOS Stream 9.

Continuation of #37960.
The same concern as expalined in #37960 exists also in
missing_syscall.h. If we use enough new glibc, a function we want to use
may be already provided by glibc, but our baseline glibc may not. And it
is hard to detect in our daily development.
This moves all prototypes of syscalls to relevant headers, and missing
syscall functions are defined in relevant .c files of libc wrapper. This
way, we can use usual header as is, e.g. when we want to write code with
`move_mount()`, we can simply use sys/mount.h without checking if it is
supported by our baseline glibc.
This introduces `struct ConfFile` that stores detailed information of an
enumerated file, and introduces `conf_files_list_full()` and friends
that provide results in `ConfFile`.
Then make udev, hwdb, catalog, and cat-files use the new function and
struct to make them not read files outside of specified root directory.
Then, move syscall definitions to the wrapper, and prototypes are moved
to relevant headers.
This also adds checks for add_key() and request_key(), as one day
glibc may be going to add some of them separatedly.
The check for fspick in meson.build is dropped, as it is currently
unused in our code.
This also moves
- basic/missing_bpf.h -> include/override/linux/bpf.h,
- basic/missing_keyctl.h -> include/override/linux/keyctl.h.
This also moves syscall tables and generators to the same directory.
Note, inclusion of asm/sgidefs.h is dropped, as it is already included
by unistd.h and sys/syscall.h.
- pass our system include directories to make generators use our libc
wrappers and latest kernel headers,
- include relevant headers in generated gperf file,
- use files() rather than find_program(), as the result of
find_program() cannot be passed to 'input' of custom_target(),
- move generate-bpf-delegate-configs.py to src/core/, as it is only used
by libcore.
