The loading of an extension image from a symlink "NAME.raw" to
"NAME-VERSION.raw" failed because the release file name check worked
with the backing file of the loop device which already resolves the
symlink and thus the found name "NAME-VERSION" mismatched "NAME".
Pass the original filename and use it instead of the backing file
when available. This fixes the loading of "NAME.raw" extensions which
are a symlink to "NAME-VERSION.raw" as, e.g., may be the case when
systemd-sysupdate manages multiple versions.

In sd-device, `devpath` is a kind of syspath without '/sys' prefix, e.g.
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.4/0000:3c:00.0/nvme/nvme0/nvme0n1,
and `devname` is a path to the device node, e.g. /dev/nvme0n1.
Let's use the consistent name for the helper function.
Let's rework how we lock loopback block devices in two ways:
1. Lock a separate fd, instead of the main block device fd. We already
did that for our internal locking when allocating loopback block
devices, but do so for the exposed locking (i.e.
loop_device_flock()), too, so that the lock is independent of the
main fd we actually use of IO.
2. Instead of locking the device during allocation of the loopback
device, then unlocking it (which will make udev run), and then
re-locking things if we need, let's instead just keep the lock the
whole time, to make things a bit safer and faster, and not have to
wait for udev at all. This is done by adding a "lock_op" parameter to
loop device allocation functions that declares the initial state of
the lock, and is one of LOCK_UN/LOCK_SH/LOCK_EX. This change also
shortens a lot of code, since we allocate + immediately lock loopback
devices pretty much everywhere.
This reverts a major chunk of 75d7e04eb4
Now that the loopback device code already destroys the partitions we
don't have to do this here anymore.
I am sure the right place to delete the partitions is in the loopback
code, since we really only should do that for loopback devices, see
bug #24431, and not on "real" block devices.
I am also not convinced dropping partitions the dissection logic doesn't
care about is a good idea, after all. The dissection stuff should
probably not consider itself the "owner" of the block devices it
analyzes, but take a more passive role: figure out what is what, but not
modify it.
Fixes: #24431
Often I end up debugging a problem on a system, and I
do e.g. `journalctl --grep=failed|error`. The use of the term
"failed" for condition checks adds a *lot* of unnecessary noise into
this.
Now, I know this regexp search isn't precise, but it has proven
to be useful to me.
I think "failed" is too strong of a term as a baseline, and also
just stands out to e.g. humans watching their servers boot or
whatever.
The term "met condition" is fairly widely used, e.g.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63751794/what-does-the-condition-is-met-exactly-mean-in-programming-languages
Use that instead.
The extended attributes 'user.oomd_avoid' and 'user.oomd_omit' are used
to store the setting of the ManagedOOMPrefernce property. Since these
are user extended attributes, the access permissions are defined by the
file permissions, and there is no need to guard this from user managers.
When a service unit Requires= a socket, and the socket is restarted while the
service is in state=activating, the propagated restart is being discarded. This
is contrary to the documentation for Requires=, which states "this unit will be
stopped (or restarted) if one of the other units is explicitly stopped (or
restarted)".
When some transient unit setting is received over D-Bus, we write it it to a
transient unit file. We escape backslashes and specifiers. For most settings
this is enough, because most settings only do parsing and interpolation of
specifiers. When systemd-run is called (or something equivalent that gives us a
command strv), we write ExecStart=, but when reading it, we not only do parsing
and interpolation of specifiers, but also split on semicolons and do variable
substitution. This results in an ugly situation where the commandline is
interpolated twice, once on the caller side, and once in the manager.
I think we need to treat this as a bug: current behaviour seems to be an
accident of implementation and hard to explain in a reasonable way. If we
*were* doing specifier expansion, then it'd be somewhat reasonable so say that
"the commandline is handled the same as ExecStart=". But since we explicitly
prevent specifier expansion, we best we could say is "the commandline has some
subset of features of ExecStart=". I think this is not useful, and unexpected
by users. Since most people use use a shell to call systemd-run, one level of
variable expansion is already done on the caller side, and having to take into
account another level of expansion (with slightly different rules), creates a
big mental overhead when the commandline needs to include a dollar character or
such. Not doing any expansion is much cleaner and easier to explain or use.
Thus I think it's better to change behaviour here, even though in principle
some people could be relying on current behaviour. I think it's more likely
that nobody noticed, because people generally don't use systemd-run for
complicated commandlines.
Thus this commit adds an additional mode of escaping that prevents variable
explansion and other elements of ExecStart= syntax. I looked over all the
places where unit_escape_setting() is called, and I think that only two need to
be changed to use the new flag.
Fixes#23631.
When a service is triggered by a path unit, pass the
path unit name and the path that triggered it via env vars
to the spawned processes.
Note that this is best-effort, as there might be many triggers
at the same time, but we only get woken up by one.
Not wired in by any unit type yet, just the basic to allocate,
ref, deref and plug in to other unit types.
Includes recording the trigger unit name and passing it to the
triggered unit as TRIGGER_UNIT= env var.
prefix_roota() is something we should stop using. It is bad for three
reasons:
1. As it names suggests it's supposed to be used when working relative
to some root directory, but given it doesn't follow symlinks (and
instead just stupidly joins paths) it is not a good choice for that.
2. More often than not it is currently used with inputs under control of
the user, and that is icky given it typically allocates memory on the
stack.
3. It's a redundant interface, where chase_symlinks() and path_join()
already exist as better, safer interfaces.
Hence, let's start moving things from prefix_roota() to path_join() for
the cases where that's appropriate.
Follow-up for 4c733d3046.
Finding a suitable limit that would fit any use cases out there is pretty hard
and since /dev is only writeable by root anyway, let's simply drop the limit.
E.g. Documentation or Markers could apply to any unit type. This already worked
partially, because a direct dbus call could be made:
After rebuild with the patch, but before the manager has been restarted:
$ build/systemctl --user set-property dev-zram0.swap Markers=+needs-restart
$ build/systemctl --user show -p Markers dev-zram0.swap
Markers=needs-restart
I noticed that that the rpm unit restart helper was throwing errors for target
units. We should just let the Markers be set for those too, even if it doesn't
do anything in the end. This way we don't need to special-case by unit type.
When multiple devices have the same devlink, then
adding/updating/removing one of the device may cause syspath change.
