2015-02-23remove unused includesThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is in use.
2015-02-12include <poll.h> instead of <sys/poll.h>Thomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen
include-what-you-use automatically does this and it makes finding unnecessary harder to spot. The only content of poll.h is a include of sys/poll.h so should be harmless.
2014-10-05ask-password: Add --echo to enable echoing the user inputDavid Sommerseth
Programs such as OpenVPN may use ask-password for not only retrieving passwords, but also usernames. Masking usernames with * seems just silly. v2 - Don't mess with termios flags, instead print the input instead of an asterix. Resolves issues with backspace and TAB input. v3 - Renamed 'do_echo' variables and argument to 'echo'. Also modified the ask_password_{tty,agent,auto} API instead of additional wrapper functions. [zj: undo changes to ask_password_auto, since no callers were using the new argument.]
2014-08-03Unify parse_argv styleZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
getopt is usually good at printing out a nice error message when commandline options are invalid. It distinguishes between an unknown option and a known option with a missing arg. It is better to let it do its job and not use opterr=0 unless we actually want to suppress messages. So remove opterr=0 in the few places where it wasn't really useful. When an error in options is encountered, we should not print a lengthy help() and overwhelm the user, when we know precisely what is wrong with the commandline. In addition, since help() prints to stdout, it should not be used except when requested with -h or --help. Also, simplify things here and there.
2014-04-24Add more password agent informationDavid Härdeman
Add an (optional) "Id" key in the password agent .ask files. The Id is supposed to be a simple string in "<subsystem>:<target>" form which is used to provide more information on what the requested passphrase is to be used for (which e.g. allows an agent to only react to cryptsetup requests). (v2: rebased, fixed indentation, escape name, use strappenda)
2013-11-06clients: unify how we invoke getopt_long()Lennart Poettering
Among other things this makes sure we always expose a --version command and show it in the help texts.
2013-04-03util: rename parse_usec() to parse_sec() sinds the default unit is secondsLennart Poettering
Internally we store all time values in usec_t, however parse_usec() actually was used mostly to parse values in seconds (unless explicit units were specified to define a different unit). Hence, be clear about this and name the function about what we pass into it, not what we get out of it.
