2014-01-11journald: do not free space when disk space runs lowZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Before, journald would remove journal files until both MaxUse= and KeepFree= settings would be satisfied. The first one depends (if set automatically) on the size of the file system and is constant. But the second one depends on current use of the file system, and a spike in disk usage would cause journald to delete journal files, trying to reach usage which would leave 15% of the disk free. This behaviour is surprising for the user who doesn't expect his logs to be purged when disk usage goes above 85%, which on a large disk could be some gigabytes from being full. In addition attempting to keep 15% free provides an attack vector where filling the disk sufficiently disposes of almost all logs. Instead, obey KeepFree= only as a limit on adding additional files. When replacing old files with new, ignore KeepFree=. This means that if journal disk usage reached some high point that at some later point start to violate the KeepFree= constraint, journald will not add files to go above this point, but it will stay (slightly) below it. When journald is restarted, it forgets the previous maximum usage value, and sets the limit based on the current usage, so if disk remains to be filled, journald might use one journal-file-size less on each restart, if restarts happen just after rotation. This seems like a reasonable compromise between implementation complexity and robustness.
2014-01-11journalctl: allow globbing in --unit and --user-unitZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
This is a continuation of e3e0314b systemctl: allow globbing in commands which take multiple unit names. Multiple patterns can be specified, as separate arguments, or as one argument with patterns seperated by commas. If patterns are given, at least one unit must be matched (by any of the patterns). This is different behaviour than systemctl, but here it is necessary because otherwise anything would be matched, which is unlikely to be the intended behaviour. https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59336
2014-01-11journal: fix access to munmapped memory in sd_journal_enumerate_uniqueZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
sd_j_e_u needs to keep a reference to an object while comparing it with possibly duplicate objects in other files. Because the size of mmap cache is limited, with enough files and object to compare to, at some point the object being compared would be munmapped, resulting in a segmentation fault. Fix this issue by turning keep_always into a reference count that can be increased and decreased. Other callers which set keep_always=true are unmodified: their references are never released but are ignored when the whole file is closed, which happens at some point. keep_always is increased in sd_j_e_u and later on released.

2013-12-26Revert "journalctl: remove unexpected behavior of journalctl -b"Lennart Poettering
This reverts commit cf5bccc2bb9569030cb04debbc4208aaca0fe5b4. We should fix thinks properly if they aren't perfect, not just break other things...
2013-12-25journalctl: remove unexpected behavior of journalctl -bDave Reisner
This flag shouldn't try and consume the following argument. It should behave like every other flag which takes an optional argument when parsed by getopt_long.

2013-12-16journal: fix against (theoretical) undefined behaviorShawn Landden
While all the libc implementations I know return NULL when memchr's size parameter is 0, without accessing any memory, passing NULL to memchr is still invalid: C11 7.24.1p2: Where an argument declared as "size_t n" specifies the length of the array for a function, n can have the value zero on a call to that function. Unless explicitly stated otherwise in the description of a particular function in this subclause, pointer arguments on such a call shall still have valid values, as described in 7.1.4. On such a call, a function that locates a character finds no occurrence, a function that compares two character sequences returns zero, and a function that copies characters copies zero characters. see http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=18247

2013-12-14Add more _printf_'s for format-nonliteralsThomas Hindoe Paaboel Andersen
Clang is a bit more strict wrt format-nonliterals: http://clang.llvm.org/docs/LanguageExtensions.html#format-string-checking Adding these extra printf attributes also makes gcc able to find more problems. E.g. this patch uncovers a format issue in udev-builtin-path_id.c Some parts looked intetional about breaking the format-nonliteral check. I added some supression for warnings there.
2013-12-13event: be more conservative when returning errors from event handler callbacksLennart Poettering
We really should return errors from event handlers if we have a continous problem and don't know any other solution.
2013-12-13event: rework sd-event exit logicLennart Poettering
With this change a failing event source handler will not cause the entire event loop to fail. Instead, we just disable the specific event source, log a message at debug level and go on. This also introduces a new concept of "exit code" which can be stored in the event loop and is returned by sd_event_loop(). We also rename "quit" to "exit" everywhere else. Altogether this should make things more robus and keep errors local while still providing a way to return event loop errors in a clear way.

2013-12-10Ensure unit is journaled for short-lived or oneshot processesDan McGee
In the time it takes to process incoming log messages, the process we are logging details for may exit. This means the cgroup data is no longer available from '/proc'. Unfortunately, the way the code was structured before, we never log _SYSTEMD_UNIT if we don't have this cgroup information. Add an else if case that allows the passed in unit_id to be logged even if we couldn't capture cgroup information. This ensures a command like `journalctl -u run-XXX` will return all log messages from a oneshot process.
2013-12-08Fix memory leak in stdout journal streamsDan McGee
Just as 'identifier' is strdup-ed and freed, we need to do the same for unit_id.
2013-12-06Get rid of our reimplementation of basenameZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
The only problem is that libgen.h #defines basename to point to it's own broken implementation instead of the GNU one. This can be fixed by #undefining basename.

2013-12-03journal: fail silently in sd_j_sendv() if journal is unavailableZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
"syslog(3) and sd_journal_print() may largely be used interchangeably functionality-wise" according to sd_journal_print(3). This socket should be always available except in rare circumstatances, and we don't random applications to fail on logging, so let's do what syslog did. The alternative of forcing all callers to do error handling for this rare case doesn't really have any benefits, since if they can't log there isn't much they can do anyway. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1023041
