News and man tweaks
|
|
As suggested by @mbiebl we already use the "!" special char in unit file
assignments for negation, hence we should not use it in a different context for
privileged execution. Let's use "+" instead.

|
To "search something", in the meaning of looking for it, is valid,
but "search _for_ something" is much more commonly used, especially when
the meaning could be confused with "looking _through_ something"
(for some other object).
(C.f. "the police search a person", "the police search for a person".)
Also reword the rest of the paragraph to avoid using "automatically"
three times.

|
Not as many people use chroot as before, so make the flow a bit nicer by
talking less about chroot.
"change to the either" is awkward and unclear. Just remove that part,
because all changes are lost, period.
|
|
"systemctl enable"
Clarify that "systemctl enable" can operate either on unit names or on unit
file paths (also, adjust the --help text to clarify this). Say that "systemctl
enable" on unit file paths also links the unit into the search path.
Many other fixes.
This should improve the documentation to avoid further confusion around #3706.

uuid/id128 code rework
|

Let's not mention the supposed security benefit of turning off caching. It is
really questionnable, and I#d rather not create the impression that we actually
believed turning off caching would be a good idea.
Instead, mention that Cache=no is implicit if a DNS server on the local host is
used.

As it turns out 512 is max number of tasks per service is hit by too many
applications, hence let's bump it a bit, and make it relative to the system's
maximum number of PIDs. With this change the new default is 15%. At the
kernel's default pids_max value of 32768 this translates to 4915. At machined's
default TasksMax= setting of 16384 this translates to 2457.
Why 15%? Because it sounds like a round number and is close enough to 4096
which I was going for, i.e. an eight-fold increase over the old 512
Summary:
| on the host | in a container
old default | 512 | 512
new default | 4915 | 2457
|
|
Let's change from a fixed value of 12288 tasks per user to a relative value of
33%, which with the kernel's default of 32768 translates to 10813. This is a
slight decrease of the limit, for no other reason than "33%" sounding like a nice
round number that is close enough to 12288 (which would translate to 37.5%).
(Well, it also has the nice effect of still leaving a bit of room in the PID
space if there are 3 cooperating evil users that try to consume all PIDs...
Also, I like my bikesheds blue).
Since the new value is taken relative, and machined's TasksMax= setting
defaults to 16384, 33% inside of containers is usually equivalent to 5406,
which should still be ample space.
To summarize:
| on the host | in the container
old default | 12288 | 12288
new default | 10813 | 5406
|
|
This adds support for a TasksMax=40% syntax for specifying values relative to
the system's configured maximum number of processes. This is useful in order to
neatly subdivide the available room for tasks within containers.

If specified we'll simply output the used machine ID.

If the return parameter is NULL, simply validate the string, and return no
error.

bootctl: Always use upper case for "/EFI/BOOT" and "/EFI/BOOT/BOOT*.EFI".

If the ESP is not mounted with "iocharset=ascii", but with "iocharset=utf8"
(which is for example the default in Debian), the file system becomes case
sensitive. This means that a file created as "FooBarBaz" cannot be accessed as
"foobarbaz" since those are then considered different files.
Moreover, a file created as "FooBar" can then also not be accessed as "foobar",
and it also prevents such a file from being created, as both would use the same
8.3 short name "FOOBAR".
Even though the UEFI specification [0] does give the canonical spelling for
the files mentioned above, not all implementations completely conform to that,
so it's possible that those files would already exist, but with a different
spelling, causing subtle bugs when scanning or modifying the ESP.
While the proper fix would of course be that everybody conformed to the
standard, we can work around this problem by just referencing the files by
their 8.3 short names, i.e. using upper case.
Fixes: #3740

* Specifying a device node has an effect much larger than a simple shortcut
for a field/value match, so the original sentence is no longer a good way
to start the paragraph.
* Specifying a device node causes matches to be generated for all ancestor
devices of the device specified, not just its parents.
* Indicates that the path must be absolute, but that it may be a link.
* Eliminates a few typos.

namespace: unify limit behavior on non-directory paths
|
|
Let's make sure our logging APIs is in sync with how stdout/stderr logging
works.
|
|
This patch renames Read{Write,Only}Directories= and InaccessibleDirectories=
to Read{Write,Only}Paths= and InaccessiblePaths=, previous names are kept
as aliases but they are not advertised in the documentation.
Renamed variables:
`read_write_dirs` --> `read_write_paths`
`read_only_dirs` --> `read_only_paths`
`inaccessible_dirs` --> `inaccessible_paths`
|
|
Despite the name, `Read{Write,Only}Directories=` already allows for
regular file paths to be masked. This commit adds the same behavior
to `InaccessibleDirectories=` and makes it explicit in the doc.
This patch introduces `/run/systemd/inaccessible/{reg,dir,chr,blk,fifo,sock}`
{dile,device}nodes and mounts on the appropriate one the paths specified
in `InacessibleDirectories=`.
Based on Luca's patch from https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3327

Trivial fixes
|
|
|

The distinction between systemd-shutdown the binary vs system-shutdown
the hook directory (without the 'd') is not immediately obvious and can
be quite confusing if you are looking for a directory which doesn't exist.
Therefore explicitly mention the hook directory in the synopsis with a
trailing slash to make it clearer which is which.

sd_event_get_iteration() (#3631)
This extends the existing event loop iteration counter to 64bit, and exposes it
via a new function sd_event_get_iteration(). This is helpful for cases like
issue #3612. After all, since we maintain the counter anyway, we might as well
expose it.
(This also fixes an unrelated issue in the man page for sd_event_wait() where
micro and milliseconds got mixed up)

Type=notify has a magic overriding case where a NotifyAccess=none
is turned into a NotifyAccess=main for sanity purposes.
This makes docs more clear about such behavior:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/2787d83c28b7565ea6f80737170514e5e6186917/src/core/service.c#L650:L651

means (#3571)
My educated guess is that #3561 was filed due to confusion around the
systemd-resolve "Data Authenticated:" output. Let's try to clean up the
confusion a bit, and document what it means in the man page.

In some cases, caching DNS results locally is not desirable, a it makes DNS
cache poisoning attacks a tad easier and also allows users on the system to
determine whether or not a particular domain got visited by another user. Thus
provide a new "Cache" resolved.conf option to disable it.

resolved: more fixes, among them "systemctl-resolve --status" to see DNS configuration in effect, and a local DNS stub listener on 127.0.0.53

It takes a boolean value. If true, access to SCHED_RR, SCHED_FIFO and
SCHED_DEADLINE is blocked, which my be used to lock up the system.

This change documents the existance of the systemd-nspawn@.service template
unit file, which was previously not mentioned at all. Since the unit file uses
slightly different default than nspawn invoked from the command line, these
defaults are now explicitly documented too.
A couple of further additions and changes are made, too.

Add sd_notify() parameter to change watchdog_usec during runtime.
Application can change watchdog_usec value by
sd_notify like this. Example. sd_notify(0, "WATCHDOG_USEC=20000000").
To reset watchdog_usec as configured value in service file,
restart service.
Notice.
sd_event is not currently supported. If application uses
sd_event_set_watchdog, or sd_watchdog_enabled, do not use
"WATCHDOG_USEC" option through sd_notify.
