_cleanup_
This adds mkdtemp_malloc() that is a combination of mkdtemp() plus strdup(). It
initializes its return paremeter only if the temporary directory could be
created successfully, so that the parameter is exactly non-NULL when the
directory exists.
rmdir_and_free() and rmdir_and_freep() are also added, and the latter may be
used inside of _cleanup_ for such a directory string variable, to automatically
rmdir() the directory if it is non-NULL when the scope exits.
rmdir_and_free() is similar to the existing rm_rf_and_free() however, is only
removes a single directory and does not operate recursively.

This new flag controls whether to consider a problem if the referenced path
doesn't actually exist. If specified it's OK if the final file doesn't exist.
Note that this permits one or more final components of the path not to exist,
but these must not contain "../" for safety reasons (or, to be extra safe,
neither "./" and a couple of others, i.e. what path_is_safe() permits).
This new flag is useful when resolving paths before issuing an mkdir() or
open(O_CREAT) on a path, as it permits that the file or directory is created
later.
The return code of chase_symlinks() is changed to return 1 if the file exists,
and 0 if it doesn't. The latter is only returned in case CHASE_NON_EXISTING is
set.

Let's remove chase_symlinks_prefix() and instead introduce a flags parameter to
chase_symlinks(), with a flag CHASE_PREFIX_ROOT that exposes the behaviour of
chase_symlinks_prefix().
|
|
chase_symlinks() currently expects a fully qualified, absolute path, relative
to the host's root as first argument. Which is useful in many ways, and similar
to the paths unlink(), rename(), open(), … expect. Sometimes it's however
useful to first prefix the specified path with the specified root directory.
Add a new call chase_symlinks_prefix() for this, that is a simple wrapper.
|
|
Let's use chase_symlinks() everywhere, and stop using GNU
canonicalize_file_name() everywhere. For most cases this should not change
behaviour, however increase exposure of our function to get better tested. Most
importantly in a few cases (most notably nspawn) it can take the correct root
directory into account when chasing symlinks.
|

This adds logic to chase symlinks for all mount points that shall be created in
a namespace environment in userspace, instead of leaving this to the kernel.
This has the advantage that we can correctly handle absolute symlinks that
shall be taken relative to a specific root directory. Moreover, we can properly
handle mounts created on symlinked files or directories as we can merge their
mounts as necessary.
(This also drops the "done" flag in the namespace logic, which was never
actually working, but was supposed to permit a partial rollback of the
namespace logic, which however is only mildly useful as it wasn't clear in
which case it would or would not be able to roll back.)

Beef up the existing var_tmp() call, rename it to var_tmp_dir() and add a
matching tmp_dir() call (the former looks for the place for /var/tmp, the
latter for /tmp).
Both calls check $TMPDIR, $TEMP, $TMP, following the algorithm Python3 uses.
All dirs are validated before use. secure_getenv() is used in order to limite
exposure in suid binaries.
This also ports a couple of users over to these new APIs.
The var_tmp() return parameter is changed from an allocated buffer the caller
will own to a const string either pointing into environ[], or into a static
const buffer. Given that environ[] is mostly considered constant (and this is
exposed in the very well-known getenv() call), this should be OK behaviour and
allows us to avoid memory allocations in most cases.
Note that $TMPDIR and friends override both /var/tmp and /tmp usage if set.

journalctl: Use env variable TMPDIR to save temporary files
|
|
This is slightly nicer, since we actually watch the directories we opened and
enumerate. However, primarily this is preparation for adding support for
opening journal files by fd without specifying any path, to be added in a later
commit.

|
|
This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that
stuff in every file.
|
|
This is a cleaned up result of running iwyu but without forward
declarations on src/basic.
|

This is a continuation of the previous include sort patch, which
only sorted for .c files.

[Install] data
Some distributions use alias unit files via symlinks in /usr to cover
for legacy service names. With this change we'll allow "systemctl
enable" on such aliases.
Previously, our rule was that symlinks are user configuration that
"systemctl enable" + "systemctl disable" creates and removes, while unit
files is where the instructions to do so are store. As a result of the
rule we'd never read install information through symlinks, since that
would mix enablement state with installation instructions.
Now, the new rule is that only symlinks inside of /etc are
configuration. Unit files, and symlinks in /usr are now valid for
installation instructions.
This patch is quite a rework of the whole install logic, and makes the
following addional changes:
- Adds a complete test "test-instal-root" that tests the install logic
pretty comprehensively.
- Never uses canonicalize_file_name(), because that's incompatible with
operation relative to a specific root directory.
- unit_file_get_state() is reworked to return a proper error, and
returns the state in a call-by-ref parameter. This cleans up confusion
between the enum type and errno-like errors.
- The new logic puts a limit on how long to follow unit file symlinks:
it will do so only for 64 steps at max.
- The InstallContext object's fields are renamed to will_process and
has_processed (will_install and has_installed) since they are also
used for deinstallation and all kinds of other operations.
- The root directory is always verified before use.
- install.c is reordered to place the exported functions together.
- Stricter rules are followed when traversing symlinks: the unit suffix
must say identical, and it's not allowed to link between regular units
and templated units.
- Various modernizations
- The "invalid" unit file state has been renamed to "bad", in order to
avoid confusion between UNIT_FILE_INVALID and
_UNIT_FILE_STATE_INVALID. Given that the state should normally not be
seen and is not documented this should not be a problematic change.
The new name is now documented however.
