2015-10-19man: move documentation about NetClass from systemd.unit(5) to ↵Lennart Poettering
systemd.resource-control(5) This is after all where we expose all the other cgroup props, especially those that can be adjusted dynamically.

2015-10-07core: change how crash_shell and crash_reboot interactMichal Schmidt
Instead of freezing in PID1 and letting the forked child freeze or reboot when exec("/bin/sh") fails, just wait for the child's exit and then do the freeze_or_reboot in PID1 as usual. This means that when both crash_shell and crash_reboot are enabled, the system will reboot after the shell exits.
2015-10-07ask-password: add support for caching passwords in the kernel keyringLennart Poettering
This adds support for caching harddisk passwords in the kernel keyring if it is available, thus supporting caching without Plymouth being around. This is also useful for hooking up "gdm-auto-login" with the collected boot-time harddisk password, in order to support gnome keyring passphrase unlocking via the HDD password, if it is the same. Any passwords added to the kernel keyring this way have a timeout of 2.5min at which time they are purged from the kernel.

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.

2015-10-05document ability to disable MACAddressPolicyJacob Keller
While it is currently possible to either not set MACAddressPolicy or set it to a value different from "persistent" or "random", it is not obvious that a user can do so. Add a policy, "none", which simply retains kernel MAC addresses (same as not filling in the policy at all) and document it so that users are aware of this setting.

We don't actually accept patterns, hence don't claim so. This is a fix-up for 730836403aee5f5bb998e6e3622ea7068fce0699. Fixes #1256.

2015-10-02journal: rework vacuuming logicLennart Poettering
Implement a maximum limit on number of journal files to keep around. Enforcing a limit is useful on this since our performance when viewing pays a heavy penalty for each journal file to interleve. This setting is turned on now by default, and set to 100. Also, actully implement what 348ced909724a1331b85d57aede80a102a00e428 promised: use whatever we find on disk at startup as lower bound on how much disk space we can use. That commit introduced some provisions to implement this, but actually never did. This also adds "journalctl --vacuum-files=" to vacuum files on disk by their number explicitly.
2015-10-01rfkill: rework and make it listen on /dev/rfkillLennart Poettering
With this rework we introduce systemd-rfkill.service as singleton that is activated via systemd-rfkill.socket that listens on /dev/rfkill. That way, we get notified each time a new rfkill device shows up or changes state, in which case we restore and save its current setting to disk. This is nicer than the previous logic, as this means we save/restore state even of rfkill devices that are around only intermittently, and save/restore the state even if the system is shutdown abruptly instead of cleanly. This implements what I suggested in #1019 and obsoletes it.
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: update description of exit.targetZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
exit.target is now used for both system and user sessions, so remove "on user service manager exit". Also reword that paragraph: services will be killed before the manager exits, even if they do not conflict with shutdown target, but we recommend that they conflict with shutdown target so that systemd schedules them to be stopped immediately when starting to exit. In the first paragraph, containers should be mentioned last, and the more general systems first.

2015-09-29core: rework crash handlingLennart Poettering
This introduces a new systemd.crash_reboot=1 kernel command line option that triggers a reboot after crashing. This also cleans up crash VT handling. Specifically, it cleans up the configuration setting, to be between 1..63 or a boolean. This is to replace the previous logic where "-1" meant disabled. We continue to accept that setting, but only document the boolean syntax instead. This also brings the documentation of the default settings in sync with what actually happens. The CrashChVT= configuration file setting is renamed to CrashChangeVT=, following our usual logic of not abbreviating unnecessarily. The old setting stays support for compat reasons. Fixes #1300
2015-09-29core: allow setting WorkingDirectory= to the special value ~Lennart Poettering
If set to ~ the working directory is set to the home directory of the user configured in User=. This change also exposes the existing switch for the working directory that allowed making missing working directories non-fatal. This also changes "machinectl shell" to make use of this to ensure that the invoked shell is by default in the user's home directory. Fixes #1268.

2015-09-29machine-id-commit: merge machine-id-commit functionality into machine-id-setupLennart Poettering
And remove machine-id-commit as separate binary. There's really no point in keeping this separate, as the sources are pretty much identical, and have pretty identical interfaces. Let's unify this in one binary. Given that machine-id-commit was a private binary of systemd (shipped in /usr/lib/) removing the tool is not an API break. While we are at it, improve the documentation of the command substantially.
2015-09-29systemctl: make "systemctl is-system-running" return "offline" if we are not ↵Lennart Poettering
booted with systemd This sounds like the better place to expose this than in "systemd-notify --booted". Also document the so far undocumented "unknown" state the command might return. And rearrange the table of states documented to be more like the one for "is-running". Also, don't document the precise exit code of this function, just say errors are reported != 0 or > 0...
2015-09-28systemctl: add --state=helpZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This mirrors --type=help and simplifies completion scripts. The array of states is dense, so the is no need to check if the string is null.
