2015-05-06bus: don't switch to kdbus if not requestedDavid Herrmann
Whenever systemd is re-executed, it tries to create a system bus via kdbus. If the system did not have kdbus loaded during bootup, but the module is loaded later on manually, this will cause two system buses running (kdbus and dbus-daemon in parallel). This patch makes sure we never try to create kdbus buses if it wasn't explicitly requested on the command-line.
2015-04-28bus-util: drop redundant bus argument from bus_message_map_all_properties() ↵Lennart Poettering
and related calls
2015-04-28run: synchronously wait until the scope unit we create is startedLennart Poettering
Otherwise it might happen that by the time PID 1 adds our process to the scope unit the process might already have died, if the process is short-running (such as an invocation to /bin/true). https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86520
2015-04-11bus: implement bus_path_{en,de}code_unique()David Herrmann
Whenever we provide a bus API that allows clients to create and manage server-side objects, we need to provide a unique name for these objects. There are two ways to provide them: 1) Let the server choose a name and return it as method reply. 2) Let the client pass its name of choice in the method arguments. The first method is the easiest one to implement. However, it suffers from a race condition: If a client creates an object asynchronously, it cannot destroy that object until it received the method reply. It cannot know the name of the new object, thus, it cannot destroy it. Furthermore, this method enforces a round-trip. If the client _depends_ on the method call to succeed (eg., it would close() the connection if it failed), the client usually has no reason to wait for the method reply. Instead, the client can immediately schedule further method calls on the newly created object (in case the API guarantees in-order method-call handling). The second method fixes both problems: The client passes an object name with the method-call. The server uses it to create the object. Therefore, the client can schedule object destruction even if the object-creation hasn't finished, yet (again, requiring in-order method-call handling). Furthermore, the client can schedule further method calls on the newly created object, before the constructor returned. There're two problems to solve, though: 1) Object names are usually defined via dbus object paths, which are usually globally namespaced. Therefore, multiple clients must be able to choose unique object names without interference. 2) If multiple libraries share the same bus connection, they must be able to choose unique object names without interference. The first problem is solved easily by prefixing a name with the unique-bus-name of a connection. The server side must enforce this and reject any other name. The second problem is solved by providing unique suffixes from within sd-bus. As long as sd-bus always returns a fresh new ID, if requested, multiple libraries will never interfere. This implementation re-uses bus->cookie as ID generator, which already provides unique IDs for each bus connection. This patch introduces two new helpers: bus_path_encode_unique(sd_bus *bus, const char *prefix, const char *sender_id, const char *external_id, char **ret_path); This creates a new object-path via the template '/prefix/sender_id/external_id'. That is, it appends two new labels to the given prefix. If 'sender_id' is NULL, it will use bus->unique_name, if 'external_id' is NULL, it will allocate a fresh, unique cookie from bus->cookie. bus_path_decode_unique(const char *path, const char *prefix, char **ret_sender, char **ret_external); This reverses what bus_path_encode_unique() did. It parses 'path' from the template '/prefix/sender/external' and returns both suffix-labels in 'ret_sender' and 'ret_external'. In case the template does not match, 0 is returned and both output arguments are set to NULL. Otherwise, 1 is returned and the output arguments contain the decoded labels. Note: Client-side allocated IDs are inspired by the Wayland protocol (which itself was inspired by X11). Wayland uses those IDs heavily to avoid round-trips. Clients can create server-side objects and send method calls without any round-trip and waiting for any object IDs to be returned. But unlike Wayland, DBus uses gobally namespaced object names. Therefore, we have to add the extra step by adding the unique-name of the bus connection.
2015-04-07polkit: rename bus_verify_polkit() to bus_test_polkit() and make it strictly ↵Lennart Poettering
non-interactive Interactive authorization should only happen asynchronously, hence disallow it in synchronous bus_verify_polkit(), and rename it to bus_test_polkit(). This way even if the bus message header asks for interactive authorization, we'll ask for non-interactive authorization which is actually the desired behaviour if CanSuspend, CanHibernate and friends, which call this function.
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.
2015-02-18logind: open up most bus calls for unpriviliged processes, using PolicyKitLennart Poettering
Also, allow clients to alter their own objects without any further priviliges. i.e. this allows clients to kill and lock their own sessions without involving PK.
2014-12-29machinectl: add "enable" and "disable" verbs for enabling/disabling ↵Lennart Poettering
systemd-nspawn for containers This is basically just a shortcut for "systemctl enable systemd-nspawn@<foobar>.service", but does escaping.

2014-12-24sd-bus: rename sd_bus_open_system_container() to sd_bus_open_system_machine()Lennart Poettering
Pretty much everywhere else we use the generic term "machine" when referring to containers in API, so let's do though in sd-bus too. In particular, since the concept of a "container" exists in sd-bus too, but as part of the marshalling system.
2014-08-27bus: split bus_map_all_properties into multiple helpersDavid Herrmann
The bus_map_all_properties() helper calls org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties.GetAll() on a given target and parses the result according to a given property-table. This simplifies dealing with DBus.Properties significantly. However, the function is blocking and thus not really useful in many situations. This patch extracts the core of this function and adds two new helpers which directly take dbus-messages as arguments. This way, you can issue asynchronous requests and parse the result via these helpers: bus_message_map_all_properties(): This is the same as bus_map_all_properties() but takes the result message from a GetAll() request as argument. You can thus issue an asynchronous GetAll() request and then use this helper once you got the result. bus_message_map_properties_changed(): This function takes a signal-message that was retrieved via a PropertiesChanged signal and then parses it like if you retrieved it via GetAll(). Furthermore, this function returns the number of matched properties that got invalidated by the PropertiesChanged signal, but didn't carry the new value. This way, the caller can issue a new GetAll() request and then parse the result. The old function bus_map_all_properties() is functionally unchanged, but now uses bus_message_map_all_properties() internally.
2014-08-18bus-util: simplify bus_verify_polkit_async() a bitLennart Poettering
First, let's drop the "bus" argument, we can determine it from the message anyway. Secondly, determine the right callback/userdata pair automatically from what is currently is being dispatched. This should simplify things a lot for us, since it makes it unnecessary to pass pointers through the original handlers through all functions when we process messages, which might require authentication.

2014-08-15sd-bus: add API to check if a client has privilegesLennart Poettering
This is a generalization of the vtable privilege check we already have, but exported, and hence useful when preparing for a polkit change. This will deal with the complexity that on dbus1 one cannot trust the capability field we retrieve via the bus, since it is read via /proc/$$/stat (and thus might be out-of-date) rather than directly from the message (like on kdbus) or bus connection (as for uid creds on dbus1). Also, port over all code to this new API.
2014-08-15sd-bus: Remove bus arg from bus_verify_polkit_async_registry_free()Stef Walter
It's unneccessary, not used, and complicates callers of the function.
2014-08-04bus: always explicitly close bus from main programsLennart Poettering
Since b5eca3a2059f9399d1dc52cbcf9698674c4b1cf0 we don't attempt to GC busses anymore when unsent messages remain that keep their reference, when they otherwise are not referenced anymore. This means that if we explicitly want connections to go away, we need to close them. With this change we will no do so explicitly wherver we connect to the bus from a main program (and thus know when the bus connection should go away), or when we create a private bus connection, that really should go away after our use. This fixes connection leaks in the NSS and PAM modules.

2014-05-15sd-bus: introduce sd_bus_slot objects encapsulating callbacks or vtables ↵Lennart Poettering
attached to a bus connection This makes callback behaviour more like sd-event or sd-resolve, and creates proper object for unregistering callbacks. Taking the refernce to the slot is optional. If not taken life time of the slot will be bound to the underlying bus object (or in the case of an async call until the reply has been recieved).
