So here's something we should always keep in mind:
systemd-udevd actually does *two* things with BSD file locks on block
devices:
1. While it probes a device it takes a LOCK_SH lock. Thus everyone else
taking a LOCK_EX lock will temporarily block udev from probing
devices, which is good when making changes to it.
2. Whenever a device is closed after write (detected via inotify), udevd
will issue BLKRRPART (requesting the kernel to reread the partition
table). It does this while holding a LOCK_EX lock on the block
device. Thus anyone else taking LOCK_SH or LOCK_EX will temporarily
block udevd from issuing that ioctl. And that's quite relevant, since
the kernel will temporarily flush out all partitions while re-reading
the partition table and then create them anew. Thus it is smart to
take LOCK_SH when dissecting a block device to ensure that no
BLKRRPART is issued in the background, until we mounted the devices.
The implementation of MountImageUnit()/systemctl mount-image was
changed to use a /proc/self/fd path as the source, but that causes
the dm-verity files autodiscovery to fail, as it looks for files
in the same directory as the image.
Use the original file path when setting up dm-verity.
That file only exported one function, and it fits nicely within the scope of
"parse helpers". Let's move it there to reduce the file count a bit.
No functional change.
This is a high-level function, and it belongs in libsystemd-shared. This way we
don't end up linking a separate copy into various binaries. It would even end
up in libsystemd, where it is not needed. (Maybe it'd be removed in some
optimization phase, but it's better to not rely on that.)

No functional change.
GIT_VERSION is not available as a config.h variable, because it's rendered
into version.h during builds. Let's rework jinja2 rendering to also
parse version.h. No functional change, the new variable is so far unused.
I guess this will make partial rebuilds a bit slower, but it's useful
to be able to use the full version string.
These days we have a mechanism for safely returning errnos in enum
types, via definining -ERRNO_MAX as one special enu value. Let's use
that for Virtualization.
No change in behaviour, just some typesafety improvement.
This will taint systemd if invoked in containers that do not have the
full 16bit range of UIDs defined.
we pretty much need uid root…nobody to be defined for a variety of
purposes, hence let's add this taint flag. Of course taints are
graceful, but it at least communicates the mess in some way...
A single device cannot have more than a single proportional control
policy at the same time. So either io.bfq.weight or io.weight will
always fail. Process the resulting values and emit a warning message
only when none was really configured.
This patch also drops warnings when setting [blk]io.bfq.weight fails,
the code would be too convoluted otherwise.
Old kernels (795fe54c2a82 ("bfq: Add per-device weight") v5.4) won't
allow io.bfq.weight per-device configuration, don't get too excited
about it but give the user one warning message to be aware this settings
don't apply.
Some calls to lookup_path_init() were not followed by any log emission.
E.g.:
$ SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug systemctl --root=/missing enable unit; echo $?
1
Let's add a helper function and use it in various places.
$ SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug build/systemctl --root=/missing enable unit; echo $?
Failed to initialize unit search paths for root directory /missing: No such file or directory
1
$ SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_SYSV=1 build/systemctl --root=/missing enable unit; echo $?
Failed to initialize unit search paths for root directory /missing: No such file or directory
Failed to enable: No such file or directory.
1
The repeated error in the second case is not very nice, but this is a niche
case and I don't think it's worth the trouble to trying to avoid it.
We would resolve those specifiers to the calling user/group. This is mostly OK
when done in the manager, because the manager generally operates as root
in system mode, and a non-root in user mode. It would still be wrong if
called with --test though. But in systemctl, this would be generally wrong,
since we can call 'systemctl --system' as a normal user, either for testing
or even for actual operation with '--root=…'.
When operating in --global mode, %u/%U/%g/%G should return an error.
The information whether we're operating in system mode, user mode, or global
mode is passed as the data pointer to specifier_group_name(), specifier_user_name(),
specifier_group_id(), specifier_user_id(). We can't use userdata, because
it's already used for other things.
Let's raise our supported baseline a bit: CLOCK_BOOTTIME started to work
with timerfd in kernel 3.15 (i.e. back in 2014), let's require support
for it now.
This will raise our baseline only modestly from 3.13 → 3.15.
There are two possible IO control mechanisms (io.cost and BFQ) that
expose separate weights APIs. In systemd units we configure only a
single device weight value so we need to write it to both attribute
files.
This patch extends to devices what is already done for default cgroup IO
weight in commit 2dbc45aea7 ("cgroup: Also set io.bfq.weight"). This
is possible with kernels >= v5.4 with commit 795fe54c2a82 ("bfq: Add
per-device weight"). A warning is logged if the write fails on older kernels.
Since per-device weight of a particular device cannot use both io.cost
policy and BFQ scheduler, at least one warning is always expected with
this approach (the method that is unconfigured).
Same idea as 03677889f0.
No functional change intended. The type of the iterator is generally changed to
be 'const char*' instead of 'char*'. Despite the type commonly used, modifying
the string was not allowed.
I adjusted the naming of some short variables for clarity and reduced the scope
of some variable declarations in code that was being touched anyway.
To notify user of kill events from systemd-oomd we now use
`SERVICE_FAILURE_OOM_KILL` as the failure result.
`unit_check_oomd_kill` now calls `notify_cgroup_oom` to
update the service result to `oom-kill`.
We add a new xattr `user.oomd_ooms` to keep track of the OOM kills
initiated by systemd-oomd, this helps us resolve a race between sending
SIGKILL to processes and checking for OOM kill status from the xattr.
Related to: #20649
Check if process(es) of a cgroup were killed by Kernel OOM killer
or systemd-oomd before we send the cgroup empty notification.
This allows us to show the right exit state(ServiceResult)
We basically had the same code in three places. Let's unify it in a
common helper function.
event_add_time_change() might be something we should add to the official
sd-event API sooner or later, given its general usefulness.
