The Upholds= promise is that as long as unit A is up and Upholds=B,
B will be activated if failed or inactive. But there is a hard-coded,
non-configurable rate limit for this, so add a timed retry after the
ratelimit has expired.
Apply to BindsTo= and StopWhenUnneeded= as well.
When running in a container, we can propagate the exit status of
pid1 as usual via the process exit status. This is not possible
when running in a VM. Instead, let's send EXIT_STATUS=%i via the
notify socket if one is configured. The user running the VM can then
pick up the exit status from the notify socket after the VM has shut
down.

> tree-wide: Use "unmet" for condition checks, not "failed"
Since I noticed when running `systemctl status` on a recent
systemd still seeing
`Condition: start condition failed`
To recap the original rationale here for "unmet" is that it's
normal for some units to be conditional, so the term "failure"
here is too strong.
The release file that accompanies the confext images needs to be
host compatible to be able to be merged into the host /etc/ directory.
This commit checks for version compatibility between the image file and
the host file.
Adds a new image type called IMAGE_CONFEXT which is similar to IMAGE_SYSEXT but works
for the /etc/ directory instead of /usr/ and /opt/. This commit also adds the ability to
parse the release file that is present with the confext image in /etc/confext-release.d/
directory.
I was testing transient units and user@.service crashed. I restarted it, and
tried to create a transient unit. It failed because
/run/user/1000/systemd/transient/ remained after the previous aborted run:
Failed to start transient service unit: Unit run-u0.service was already loaded or has a fragment file.
Remove the directory during initial startup so we don't get confused by our own
files.
I was changing how some properties are appended to the StartTransientUnit call
and messed up the message contents. When something is wrong with how the
message is structed, we would return a very generic
"Failed to start transient service unit: No such device or address".
Mention that it was property setting that failed, and translate ENXIO to a
different message. bus_unit_set_properties() or any of the children it calls
may also return other errors, in particular EBADMSG or ENOMEM, but the error
message that is generated for those is understandable, so we don't need to
"translate" them explicitly.
bus_unit_set_properties() is called from two places, so it seems nicer to
generate the message internally, rather than ask the caller to do that. Also,
now bus_unit_set_properties() always sets <error>, which is nicer for the
callers.
After 'if (DEBUG_LOGGING)' is added, the two call sites are almost identical,
except that we forgot LOG_UNIT_INVOCATION_ID(unit).
I removed the handling of the log_oom(). It's a debug message only after all,
and it's unlikely to fail.
The function had a provision for NULL input, and would return NULL, but that
looks like an error and all callers pass in a non-NULL arg and report oom on
NULL. So assert that the input is non-NULL.
All callers specifed the output buffer, so we can simplify the logic to only
make an allocation if appropriate and change the return type to 'const *'.
No functional change.

We now modify our cmdline to use '=' for all arguments,
but didn't change early setup check to work with that.
So every daemon-reexec does a full setup, thus breaking
running user sessions.

User report that systemd repeatedly logs about not being able to start oomd

systemd-oomd.service that pulls systemd-oomd.socket in (because it requires
it); systemd-oomd.service itself is pulled by user@.service because
systemd-oomd package installs an override config file that sets
ManagedOOMMemoryPressure=kill.
Add a check to the code that adds the implicit dependency to skip the
dep if we cannot start it. The check is done exactly the same as in oomd
itself.

Let's always calculate the next restart interval
since that's more useful.
For that, we add 1 to s->n_restarts unconditionally,
and change RestartUSecCurrent property to RestartUSecNext.
We have three states:
- ENABLE_COREDUMP and systemd-coredump is installed,
- ENABLE_COREDUMP but systemd-coredump is not installed,
- !ENABLE_COREDUMP.
In the last case we would not do any coredumping-related setup in pid1, which
means that coredumps would go to to the working directory of the process, but
actually limits are set to 0. This is inherited by children of pid1.
As discussed extensively in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/26607, this
default is bad: dumps are written to arbitrary directories and not cleaned up.
Nevertheless, the kernel cannot really fix it. It doesn't know where to write,
and it doesn't know when that place would become available. It is only the
userspace that can tell this to the kernel. So the only sensible change in the
kernel would be to default to '|/bin/false', i.e. do what we do now.
In the middle case, we disabled writing of coredumps via a pattern, but raise
the RLIMIT_CORE. We need to raise the limit because we can't raise it later
after processes have been forked off. This means we behave correctly, but allow
coredumping to be enabled at a later point without a reboot.
This patch makes the last case behave like the middle case. This means that
even if systemd is compiled with systemd-coredump, it still does the usual
setup. If users want to restore the kernel default, they need to provide two
drop-in files:
for sysctl.d, with 'kernel.core_pattern=core'
for systemd.conf, with 'DefaultLimitCORE=0'.
The general idea is that pid1 does the safe thing. A distro may want to use
something different than the systemd-coredump machinery, and then that would
could packaged together with the drop-ins to change the configuration.
Alternative-for: #26607
When a service deactivates and is then automatically restarted via
Restart= we currently quickly transition through
SERVICE_DEAD/SERVICE_FAILED. Which is weird given it's not the
normal ("permanent") dead/failed state, but a transitory one we
immediately leave from again. We do this so that software that looks for
failures/successes can take notice, even if we restart as a consequence
of the deactivation.
Let's clean this up a bit: let's introduce two new states:
SERVICE_DEAD_BEFORE_AUTO_RESTART and SERVICE_FAILED_BEFORE_AUTO_RESTART
that are used for the transitory states. Both the SERVICE_DEAD and
SERVICE_DEAD_BEFORE_AUTO_RESTART will map to the high-level
UNIT_INACTIVE state though. (and similar for the respective failed
states). This means the high-level state machine won't change by this,
only the low-level one.
This clearly seperates the substates, which makes the state engine
cleaner, and allows clients to follow precisely whether we are in a
transitory dead/failed state, or a permanent one, by looking at the
service substate. Moreover it allows us to remove the 'n_keep_fd_store'
which so far we used to ensure the fdstore was not released during this
transitory dead/failed state but only during the permanent one. Since we
can now distinguish these states properly we can just use that.
This has been bugging me for a while. Let's clean this up.
Note that the unit restart logic is already nicely covered in the
testsiute, hence this adds no new tests for that.
And yes, this could be considered a compat break, but sofar we took the
liberty to make changes to the low-level state machine (i.e. SERVICE_xyz
states, sometimes called "substates") without considering this a bad
breakage – the high-level state machine (i.e. UNIT_xyz states) should
be considered API that cannot be changed.
Currently, exec runtimes can be shared between units (using
JoinsNamespaceOf=). Let's introduce a concept of a private exec
runtime that isn't shared with JoinsNamespaceOf=. The existing
ExecRuntime struct is renamed to ExecRuntimeShared and becomes a
private member of the new private ExecRuntime.
