In some rare cases, a watchdog driver might neither be able to change
the watchdog timeout value, nor read it from the hardware at runtime.
With an otherwise functional watchdog setup, this constellation worked
until systemd v249. Since then, systemd ends up ignoring the timeout
defined by the system.conf and rather uses USEC_INFINITY. Consequently,
the watchdog is not pinged anymore and eventually resets the system.
We therefore want to ensure that the system keeps running with the
originally configured timeout.
pam_prompt() will log very noisely at high error levels if it is called
without a conversation function that works. This is however a frequent
case, given that ssh doesn't provide one. To tone down the misleading
logging a bit, implement our own pam_prompt_graceful() that is just like
pam_prompt(), but reports errors back the caller who then logs (which we
generally do anyway).
In some environments, such as a LXD container, the netns setup might
fail because ip netns exec fails trying to mount /sys:
$ systemd-detect-virt
lxc
$ ip link add dummy-test-exec type dummy
$ ip netns add test-execute-netns
$ ip netns exec test-execute-netns ip link add dummy-test-ns type dummy
mount of /sys failed: Operation not permitted
If this setup fails, test_exec_networknamespacepath will fail, so check
the exit codes for these setup calls and skip the test if necessary.
The mkosi github action doesn't set up the host machine for building
full images anymore. Instead, only sufficient packages are installed
to be able to build tools trees so we configure a fedora tools tree
to build the actual images.
We had both uid-range.h and uid-alloc-range.h. The latter now contains helpers
like {uid,gid}_is_{system,dynamic,container}(), uid_for_system_journal(), so
the existing name is outdated. I think the uid-range.[ch] should stay separate
because it has a bunch of helpers for parsing and printing of uid ranges. So
let's rename as in $subject to better reflect the contents of the file and make
the two sets of files harder to confuse.
We don't "uncapitalize" parts of an already-capitalized name when concatenating
words. In particular, we had UidRange in basic/uid-range.h and UGIDAllocationRange
in basic/uid-alloc-range.h, which is annoying.
We want to retain *some* of the full paths in order to test more code paths.
But the default should be to use the command name only. This makes the tests
less visually cluttered.
that way clients can distinguish whether there is no cid or whether
hostnamed doesn't support it nicely, by just looking if the prop exists
(but is null) or not.
This is similar how we already handle all other props in the JSON
record.
