2012-06-22unit: drop the Names= optionLennart Poettering
Names= is a source of errors, simply because alias names specified like this only become relevant after a unit has been loaded but cannot be used to load a unit. Let's get rid of the confusion and drop this field. To establish alias names peope should use symlinks, which have the the benefit of being useful as key to load a unit, even though they are not taken into account if unit names are listed but they haven't been explicitly referenced before.
2012-06-22dbus: don't expose SysVInitPath and SysVRcndPath on the busLennart Poettering
People should use systemd.pc if anything at all to determine these directories, and people should not assume that the bus fields are part of the supported API, so let's just drop this.
2012-06-22systemctl: automatically turn paths and unescaped unit names into proper ↵Lennart Poettering
unit names This makes sure that systemctl status /home is implicitly translated to: systemctl status /home.mount Similar, /dev/foobar becomes dev-foobar.device. Also, all characters that cannot be part of a unit name are implicitly escaped.

2012-06-21readahead: merge three binaries into oneLennart Poettering
since the binaries share much of the same code and we better load only one binary instead of two from disk at early boot let's merge the three readahead binaries into one. This also allows us to drop a lot of duplicated code.
2012-06-21rpm: include RPM macro definition for .spec snippetsLennart Poettering
Let's try to standardize a bit the RPM macros used for installing/uninstalling services. This only covers the non-SysV compat bits, since that tends to vary widely between the various distros. Usage: Add %{?systemd_requires} to the header of the spec file. And then: %post %systemd_post foobar.service %preun %systemd_preun foobar.service %postun %systemd_postun foobar.service And, instead of the latter, in case the service shall be restarted on updates: %postun %systemd_postun_restart foobar.service
2012-06-21logind: introduce a state for session, being one of online, active, closingLennart Poettering
online = logged in active = logged in and session is in the fg closing = nominally logged out but some left-over processes still around Related to: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677556
2012-06-21logind: expose CanGraphical and CanTTY properties on seat objectsLennart Poettering
Since we boot so fast now that gdm might get started before the graphics drivers are properly loaded and probed we might end up announcing seat0 to gdm before it has graphics capabilities. Which will cause gdm/X11 cause to fail later on. To fix this race, let's expose CanGraphical and CanTTY fields on all seats, which clarify whether a seat is suitable for gdm resp, suitable for text logins. gdm then needs to watch CanGraphical and spawn X11 on it only if it is true. This way: USB graphics seats will expose CanGraphical=yes, CanTTY=no Machines with no graphics drivers at all, but a text console: CanGraphical=no, CanTTY=yes Machines with CONFIG_VT turned off: CanGraphical=yes, CanTTY=no And the most important case: seat0 where the graphics driver has not been probed yet boot up with CanGraphical=no, CanTTY=yes first, which then changes to CanGraphical=yes as soon as the probing is complete.

clean up It's logind's job to maintain those user dirs, so avoid automatic clean up for them. However, we do cover everything within them.

For now this only reads man: URLs, but later on we might want to support info: too. http/https is probably out of focus.
2012-05-31login: properly detect MIMO USB displaysLennart Poettering
MIMO USB displays use a generic VID/PID for the hub component. With a bit of trickery we can detect them by the VID/PID of the graphics component.

2012-05-30logind: optionally handle power, sleep and lid switch eventsLennart Poettering
This takes handling of chassis power and sleep keys as well as the lid switch over from acpid. This logic is enabled by default for power and sleep keys, but not for the lid switch. If a graphical session is in the foreground no action is taken under the assumption that the graphical session does this.

2012-05-24main: add configuration option to alter capability bounding set for PID 1Lennart Poettering
This also ensures that caps dropped from the bounding set are also dropped from the inheritable set, to be extra-secure. Usually that should change very little though as the inheritable set is empty for all our uses anyway.

2012-05-21util: rework in_initrd() logicLennart Poettering
Checking the device major/minor is not a good idea. Let's replace this with an explicit flag file, which we model after /etc/os-release and call /etc/initrd-release.
