We find this function useful in our code, so no reason not to export it.
I changed the order of last two words in the name to match the arguments.
(With "equal_string" I expected sd_id128_t first, string second, but in
actual use, the second argument is usually a long constant so it's nice
to keep this order of arguments.)
The usual: if we find that function useful, other users of the library
will too. In particular, the v-variants are necessary to build pass-thru
wrappers.
It had two symbols which were not actually exported because they were not
listed in libsystemd.sym. They were also entirely unused in our codebase.
I don't think it makes much sense to export just those two functions, and
it doesn't make to build a string processing library in systemd either.
History of the file shows that it was created in
faaa5728d9 'utf8: export utf8 validation functions as part of sd-bus'
and hasn't gone even one non-trivial change since then ;)
It was added originally in 65f568bbeb. The API is
has stabilized pretty much, and generally follows the usual style for
libsystemd. We've held it as a public-but-private library for almost 10 years,
let's export it.
sd_netlink_sendv() and sd_nfnl_nft_*() are excluded.
libsystemd.so seems to grow by 12k.
Before we had the following scheme:
mempool_enabled() would check mempool_use_allowed, and
libsystemd-shared would be linked with a .c file that provides mempool_use_allowed=true,
while other things would linked with a different .c file with mempool_use_allowed=false.
In the new scheme, mempool_enabled() itself is a weak symbol. If it's
not found, we assume false. So it only needs to be provided for libsystemd-shared,
where it can return false or true.
test-set-disable-mempool is libshared, so it gets the symbol. But then we
actually disable the mempool via envvar. mempool_enable() is called to check
its return value directly.
Fixes a bug introduced by 578cd1855b.
The function `data_object_in_hash_table()` calls
`journal_file_move_to_object()` with `OBJECT_DATA`. Hence,
previously obtained pointer to a data object may be now invalid.
Fixes#23794.
This reverts PR #23269 and its follow-up commit. Especially,
2299b1cae3 (partially), and
3cf63830ac.
The PR was merged without final approval, and has several issues:
- The NetLabel for static addresses are not assigned, as labels are
stored in the Address objects managed by Network, instead of Link.
- If NetLabel is specified for a static address, then the address
section will be invalid and the address will not be configured,
- It should be implemented with Request object,
- There is no test about the feature.
Fixes: CID#1469712
CID 1469712 (#1 of 1): Unused value (UNUSED_VALUE)
returned_value: Assigning value from sd_id128_from_string(word + 2, &boot_id) to r here,
but that stored value is overwritten before it can be used.
Not only block subsystem, but also misc has device named "loop*", and
the test always said that the following device is newly found:
---
/* test_sd_device_enumerator_filter_subsystem */
New device found: subsystem:misc syspath:/sys/devices/virtual/misc/loop-control
1 new devices are found in re-scan
---
The lookup "works", but is not useful. It was introduced in
9c66f52813.
And printf will NULL args is invalid was introduced in
5d1ce25728 when support for fds was initally
added :(
New directive `NetLabel=` provides a method for integrating dynamic network
configuration into Linux NetLabel subsystem rules, used by Linux security
modules (LSMs) for network access control. The option expects a whitespace
separated list of NetLabel labels. The labels must conform to lexical
restrictions of LSM labels. When an interface is configured with IP addresses,
the addresses and subnetwork masks will be appended to the NetLabel Fallback
Peer Labeling rules. They will be removed when the interface is
deconfigured. Failures to manage the labels will be ignored.
Example:
```
[DHCP]
NetLabel=system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0
```
With the above rules for interface `eth0`, when the interface is configured with
an IPv4 address of 10.0.0.0/8, `systemd-networkd` performs the equivalent of
`netlabelctl` operation
```
$ sudo netlabelctl unlbl add interface eth0 address:10.0.0.0/8 label:system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0
```
Result:
```
$ sudo netlabelctl -p unlbl list
...
interface: eth0
address: 10.0.0.0/8
label: "system_u:object_r:localnet_peer_t:s0"
...
```
We currently have a convoluted and complex selection of which random
numbers to use. We can simplify this down to two functions that cover
all of our use cases:
1) Randomness for crypto: this one needs to wait until the RNG is
initialized. So it uses getrandom(0). If that's not available, it
polls on /dev/random, and then reads from /dev/urandom. This function
returns whether or not it was successful, as before.
2) Randomness for other things: this one uses getrandom(GRND_INSECURE).
If it's not available it uses getrandom(GRND_NONBLOCK). And if that
would block, then it falls back to /dev/urandom. And if /dev/urandom
isn't available, it uses the fallback code. It never fails and
doesn't return a value.
These two cases match all the uses of randomness inside of systemd.
I would prefer to make both of these return void, and get rid of the
fallback code, and simply assert in the incredibly unlikely case that
/dev/urandom doesn't exist. But Luca disagrees, so this commit attempts
to instead keep case (1) returning a return value, which all the callers
already check, and fix the fallback code in (2) to be less bad than
before.
For the less bad fallback code for (2), we now use auxval and some
timestamps, together with various counters representing the invocation,
hash it all together and provide the output. Provided that AT_RANDOM is
secure, this construction is probably okay too, though notably it
doesn't have any forward secrecy. Fortunately, it's only used by
random_bytes() and not by crypto_random_bytes().
Some compiler wrappers like honggfuzz pass -fno-builtin explicitly
and because of that the tests where fabs is used fail to compile
with something like
```

Fun fact: it took honggfuzz less than a minute to discover

systemd to compress/descompress some stuff.
The existing sd_hwdb_new function always initializes the hwdb from the
first successful hwdb.bin it finds from hwdb_bin_paths. This means there
is currently no way to initialize a hwdb from an explicit path, which
would be useful for systemd-hwdb query.
Add sd_hwdb_new_from_path to allow a sd_hwdb to be initialized from a
custom path outside of hwdb_bin_paths.
