2016-02-10tree-wide: remove Emacs lines from all filesDaniel Mack
This should be handled fine now by .dir-locals.el, so need to carry that stuff in every file.
2015-10-24util-lib: split our string related calls from util.[ch] into its own file ↵Lennart Poettering
string-util.[ch] There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve its own files, hence do something about it. This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now. Also touches a few unrelated include files.
2015-07-31bus-proxy: make StartServiceByName synchronousDavid Herrmann
The StartServiceByName() call was provided by dbus-daemon to activate a service without sending a message. On receiption, dbus-daemon schedules an activation request (different modes are supported) and sends back the reply once activation is done. With kdbus, we marked StartServiceByName() as deprecated. There is no real reason to start services explicitly. Instead, applications should just *use* the service and rely on it being activated implicitly. However, we provide compatibility with dbus-daemon and implement StartServiceByName() on the proxy via a call to org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer.Ping() on the destination. This will activate the peer implicitly as part of the no-op Ping() method call (regardless whether the peer actually implements that call). Now, the problem is, StartServiceByName() was synchronous on dbus-daemon but isn't on bus-proxy. Hence, on return, there is no guarantee that ListNames includes the activated name. As this is required by some applications, we need to make this synchronous. This patch makes the proxy track the Ping() method call and send the reply of StartServiceByName() only once Ping() returned. We do not look at possible errors of Ping(), as there is no strict requirement for the peer to implement org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer. Furthermore, any interesting error should have already been caught by sd_bus_send() before. Note: This race was triggered by gdbus. The gdbus-proxy implementation relies on a name to be available after StartServiceByName() returns. This is highly fragile and should be dropped by gdbus. Even if the call is synchronous, there is no reason whatsoever to assume the service did not exit-on-idle before ListNames() returns. However, this race is much less likely than the startup race, so we try to be compatible to dbus-daemon now.
2015-07-16bus-proxy: never pass on unmatched broadcastsDavid Herrmann
The lovely libvirtd goes into crazy mode if it receives broadcasts that it didn't subscribe to. With bus-proxyd, this might happen in 2 cases: 1) The kernel passes us an unmatched signal due to a false-positive bloom-match. 2) We generate NameOwnerChanged/NameAcquired/NameLost locally even though the peer didn't subscribe to it. dbus-daemon is reliable in what signals it passes on. So make sure we follow that style. Never ever send a signal to a local peer if it doesn't match an installed filter of that peer.
2015-03-11bus-proxy: complain only once about queue overflowsDavid Herrmann
If the local peer does not dispatch its incoming queue, the bus-proxy will slowly fill its outgoing queue. Once its full, it will continously complain that it cannot forward its messages. As it turns out, pulseaudio does have an idle background dbus connection that is not integrated into any mainloop (and given that gdbus and libdbus1 both support background shared connections, PA is probably not the only example), therefore, the bus-proxy will loudly complain if it cannot forward NameOwnerChanged events once the queue is full. This commit makes the proxy track queue-state and complain only once the queue runs full, not if it is already full. A PA bug-report (and patch) has been filed, and other applications should be fixed similarly. Hence, lets keep the error message, instead of dropping it. It's unused resources we really want to get rid of, so silencing the message does not really help (which is actually what dbus-daemon does).
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.
2015-02-13bus-proxy: we don't pointlessly abbreviate function namesLennart Poettering
It's fine to abbreviate local variables, but it's not OK to abbreviate function names needlessly. This is not an excercise in writing unreadable code.
2015-01-17bus-proxy: share policy between threadsDavid Herrmann
This implements a shared policy cache with read-write locks. We no longer parse the XML policy in each thread. This will allow us to easily implement ReloadConfig().
2015-01-17bus-proxy: extract proxy into Proxy objectDavid Herrmann
Move all the proxy code into a "struct Proxy" object that can be used from multiple binaries. We now dropped SMACK as we have to refactor it to work properly. We can introduce it later on.
