2015-10-06core: add support for naming file descriptors passed using socket activationLennart Poettering
This adds support for naming file descriptors passed using socket activation. The names are passed in a new $LISTEN_FDNAMES= environment variable, that matches the existign $LISTEN_FDS= one and contains a colon-separated list of names. This also adds support for naming fds submitted to the per-service fd store using FDNAME= in the sd_notify() message. This also adds a new FileDescriptorName= setting for socket unit files to set the name for fds created by socket units. This also adds a new call sd_listen_fds_with_names(), that is similar to sd_listen_fds(), but also returns the names of the fds. systemd-activate gained the new --fdname= switch to specify a name for testing socket activation. This is based on #1247 by Maciej Wereski. Fixes #1247.
2015-10-01core: add new setting Writable= to ListenSpecial= socket unitsLennart Poettering
Writable= is a new boolean setting. If ture, then ListenSpecial= will open the specified path in O_RDWR mode, rather than just O_RDONLY. This is useful for implementing services like rfkill, where /dev/rfkill is more useful when opened in write mode, if we want to not only save but also restore its state.

2015-09-30man: use "=" when referring to configuration file settingsZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This convention is almost universal in systemd man pages, and makes it easier to visually parse the docs. Also fix some markup along the way.

2015-06-18man: revert dynamic paths for split-usr setupsTom Gundersen
This did not really work out as we had hoped. Trying to do this upstream introduced several problems that probably makes it better suited as a downstream patch after all. At any rate, it is not releaseable in the current state, so we at least need to revert this before the release. * by adjusting the path to binaries, but not do the same thing to the search path we end up with inconsistent man-pages. Adjusting the search path too would be quite messy, and it is not at all obvious that this is worth the effort, but at any rate it would have to be done before we could ship this. * this means that distributed man-pages does not make sense as they depend on config options, and for better or worse we are still distributing man pages, so that is something that definitely needs sorting out before we could ship with this patch. * we have long held that split-usr is only minimally supported in order to boot, and something we hope will eventually go away. So before we start adding even more magic/effort in order to make this work nicely, we should probably question if it makes sense at all.
2015-05-28man: generate configured paths in manpagesFilipe Brandenburger
In particular, use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd in distributions like Debian which still have not adopted a /usr merge setup. Use XML entities from man/custom-entities.ent to replace configured paths while doing XSLT processing of the original XML files. There was precedent of some files (such as systemd.generator.xml) which were already using this approach. This addresses most of the (manual) fixes from this patch: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/patches/Fix-paths-in-man-pages.patch?h=experimental-220 The idea of using generic XML entities was presented here: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-May/032240.html This patch solves almost all the issues, with the exception of: - Path to /bin/mount and /bin/umount. - Generic statements about preference of /lib over /etc. These will be handled separately by follow up patches. Tested: - With default configure settings, ran "make install" to two separate directories and compared the output to confirm they matched exactly. - Used a set of configure flags including $CONFFLAGS from Debian: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-systemd/systemd.git/tree/debian/rules Installed the tree and confirmed the paths use /lib/systemd instead of /usr/lib/systemd and that no other unexpected differences exist. - Confirmed that `make distcheck` still passes.

2014-08-19socket: suffix newly added TCP sockopt time properties with "Sec"Lennart Poettering
This is what we have done so far for all other time values, and hence we should do this here. This indicates the default unit of time values specified here, if they don't contain a unit.

2014-08-14socket: Add support for TCP defer acceptSusant Sahani
TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT Allow a listener to be awakened only when data arrives on the socket. If TCP_DEFER_ACCEPT set on a server-side listening socket, the TCP/IP stack will not to wait for the final ACK packet and not to initiate the process until the first packet of real data has arrived. After sending the SYN/ACK, the server will then wait for a data packet from a client. Now, only three packets will be sent over the network, and the connection establishment delay will be significantly reduced.
2014-08-14socket: Add Support for TCP keep alive variablesSusant Sahani
The tcp keep alive variables now can be configured via conf parameter. Follwing variables are now supported by this patch. tcp_keepalive_intvl: The number of seconds between TCP keep-alive probes tcp_keepalive_probes: The maximum number of TCP keep-alive probes to send before giving up and killing the connection if no response is obtained from the other end. tcp_keepalive_time: The number of seconds a connection needs to be idle before TCP begins sending out keep-alive probes.
2014-08-14Revert "socket: add support for TCP fast Open"Lennart Poettering
This reverts commit 9528592ff8d7ff361da430285deba8196e8984d5. Apparently TFO is actually the default at least for the server side now. Also the setsockopt doesn't actually take a bool, but a qlen integer.
2014-08-14socket: add support for TCP fast OpenSusant Sahani
TCP Fast Open (TFO) speeds up the opening of successiveTCP) connections between two endpoints.It works by using a TFO cookie in the initial SYN packet to authenticate a previously connected client. It starts sending data to the client before the receipt of the final ACK packet of the three way handshake is received, skipping a round trip and lowering the latency in the start of transmission of data.
2014-08-14socket: add support for tcp nagleSusant Sahani
This patch adds support for TCP TCP_NODELAY socket option. This can be configured via NoDelay conf parameter. TCP Nagle's algorithm works by combining a number of small outgoing messages, and sending them all at once. This controls the TCP_NODELAY socket option.

2014-07-07man: add a mapping for external manpagesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
It is annoying when we have dead links on fd.o. Add project='man-pages|die-net|archlinux' to <citerefentry>-ies. In generated html, add external links to http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man, http://linux.die.net/man/, https://www.archlinux.org/. By default, pages in sections 2 and 4 go to man7, since Michael Kerrisk is the autorative source on kernel related stuff. The rest of links goes to linux.die.net, because they have the manpages. Except for the pacman stuff, since it seems to be only available from archlinux.org. Poor gummiboot gets no link, because gummitboot(8) ain't to be found on the net. According to common wisdom, that would mean that it does not exist. But I have seen Kay using it, so I know it does, and deserves to be found. Can somebody be nice and put it up somewhere?

2014-06-05socket: add SocketUser= and SocketGroup= for chown()ing sockets in the file ↵Lennart Poettering
system This is relatively complex, as we cannot invoke NSS from PID 1, and thus need to fork a helper process temporarily.
2014-06-04socket: add new Symlinks= option for socket unitsLennart Poettering
With Symlinks= we can manage one or more symlinks to AF_UNIX or FIFO nodes in the file system, with the same lifecycle as the socket itself. This has two benefits: first, this allows us to remove /dev/log and /dev/initctl from /dev, thus leaving only symlinks, device nodes and directories in the /dev tree. More importantly however, this allows us to move /dev/log out of /dev, while still making it accessible there, so that PrivateDevices= can provide /dev/log too.

2014-02-23core: clean up some confusing regarding SI decimal and IEC binary suffixes ↵Lennart Poettering
for sizes According to Wikipedia it is customary to specify hardware metrics and transfer speeds to the basis 1000 (SI decimal), while software metrics and physical volatile memory (RAM) sizes to the basis 1024 (IEC binary). So far we specified everything in IEC, let's fix that and be more true to what's otherwise customary. Since we don't want to parse "Mi" instead of "M" we document each time what the context used is.

2014-02-14man: replace STDOUT with standard output, etc.Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Actually 'STDOUT' is something that doesn't appear anywhere: in the stdlib we have 'stdin', and there's only the constant STDOUT_FILENO, so there's no reason to use capitals. When refering to code, STDOUT/STDOUT/STDERR are replaced with stdin/stdout/stderr, and in other places they are replaced with normal phrases like standard output, etc.

2013-09-27man: drop references to "cgroup" wher appropriateLennart Poettering
Since cgroups are mostly now an implementation detail of systemd lets deemphasize it a bit in the man pages. This renames systemd.cgroup(5) to systemd.resource-control(5) and uses the term "resource control" rather than "cgroup" where appropriate. This leaves the word "cgroup" in at a couple of places though, like for example systemd-cgtop and systemd-cgls where cgroup stuff is at the core of what is happening.
2013-09-12man: wording and grammar updatesJan Engelhardt
This is a recurring submission and includes corrections to various issue spotted. I guess I can just skip over reporting ubiquitous comma placement fixes… Highligts in this particular commit: - the "unsigned" type qualifier is completed to form a full type "unsigned int" - alphabetic -> lexicographic (that way we automatically define how numbers get sorted)

Especially sentences like "filename ends in .suffix" are easier to parse if the suffix is surrounded by quotes. In sentences like "requires a .service unit", where the suffix is used as a class designation, there is no need to use quotes.
