2014-06-12sysusers: add minimal tool to reconstruct /etc/passwd and /etc/group from ↵Lennart Poettering
static files systemd-sysusers is a tool to reconstruct /etc/passwd and /etc/group from static definition files that take a lot of inspiration from tmpfiles snippets. These snippets should carry information about system users only. To make sure it is not misused for normal users these snippets only allow configuring UID and gecos field for each user, but do not allow configuration of the home directory or shell, which is necessary for real login users. The purpose of this tool is to enable state-less systems that can populate /etc with the minimal files necessary, solely from static data in /usr. systemd-sysuser is additive only, and will never override existing users. This tool will create these files directly, and not via some user database abtsraction layer. This is appropriate as this tool is supposed to run really early at boot, and is only useful for creating system users, and system users cannot be stored in remote databases anyway. The tool is also useful to be invoked from RPM scriptlets, instead of useradd. This allows moving from imperative user descriptions in RPM to declarative descriptions. The UID/GID for a user/group to be created can either be chosen dynamic, or fixed, or be read from the owner of a file in the file system, in order to support reconstructing the correct IDs for files that shall be owned by them. This also adds a minimal user definition file, that should be sufficient for most basic systems. Distributions are expected to patch these files and augment the contents, for example with fixed UIDs for the users where that's necessary.

2014-06-06namespace: beef up read-only bind mount logicLennart Poettering
Instead of blindly creating another bind mount for read-only mounts, check if there's already one we can use, and if so, use it. Also, recursively mark all submounts read-only too. Also, ignore autofs mounts when remounting read-only unless they are already triggered.

everything below This has the benefit of not triggering any autofs mount points unnecessarily.

2014-06-05sd-daemon: introduce sd_pid_notify() and sd_pid_notifyf()Lennart Poettering
sd_pid_notify() operates like sd_notify(), however operates on a different PID (for example the parent PID of a process). Make use of this in systemd-notify, so that message are sent from the PID specified with --pid= rather than the usually shortlived PID of systemd-notify itself. This should increase the likelyhood that PID 1 can identify the cgroup that the notification message was sent from properly.

ignore_file currently allows any file ending with '~' while it seems that the opposite was intended: a228a22fda4faa9ecb7c5a5e499980c8ae5d2a08

2014-04-23delta: draw arrows with draw_special_char()Lennart Poettering
Let's unify generation of unicode chars at one place. Also, don't add an extra space into chars we print, except for the tree chars where this is really necessary.

2014-04-13util: ignore kernel errors reported via close(), unless it is EBADFLennart Poettering
The kernel can return pretty much anything there, even though the fd is closed. Let's not get confused by that.
2014-04-12Unify GREEDY_REALLOC and GREEDY_REALLOC_TZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
greedy_realloc() and greedy_realloc0() now store the allocated size as the count, not bytes. Replace GREEDY_REALLOC uses with GREEDY_REALLOC_T everywhere, and then rename GREEDY_REALLOC_T to GREEDY_REALLOC. It is just too error-prone to have two slightly different macros which do the same thing.
2014-03-25util: consider both fuse.glusterfs and glusterfs network file systemsLennart Poettering
Based on a similar patch by Lukáš Nykrýn.
2014-03-24util: replace close_pipe() with new safe_close_pair()Lennart Poettering
safe_close_pair() is more like safe_close(), except that it handles pairs of fds, and doesn't make and misleading allusion, as it works similarly well for socketpairs() as for pipe()s...
2014-03-18util: replace close_nointr_nofail() by a more useful safe_close()Lennart Poettering
safe_close() automatically becomes a NOP when a negative fd is passed, and returns -1 unconditionally. This makes it easy to write lines like this: fd = safe_close(fd); Which will close an fd if it is open, and reset the fd variable correctly. By making use of this new scheme we can drop a > 200 lines of code that was required to test for non-negative fds or to reset the closed fd variable afterwards.
2014-03-16Use strlen even for constant stringsJosh Triplett
GCC optimizes strlen("string constant") to a constant, even with -O0. Thus, replace patterns like sizeof("string constant")-1 with strlen("string constant") where possible, for clarity. In particular, for expressions intended to add up the lengths of components going into a string, this often makes it clearer that the expression counts the trailing '\0' exactly once, by putting the +1 for the '\0' at the end of the expression, rather than hidden in a sizeof in the middle of the expression.
2014-03-14util: add hexdump() call to create pretty hexdumps of dataLennart Poettering
This is very useful when debugging sd-bus to look at messages.
2014-03-14shared: add root argument to search_and_fopenMichael Marineau
This adds the same root argument to search_and_fopen that conf_files_list already has. Tools that use those two functions as a pair can now be easily modified to load configuration files from an alternate root filesystem tree.
2014-03-12util: Make in_charset a static inline in util.hJosh Triplett
With in_charset now reduced to a one-liner (plus asserts), make it a static inline.
2014-03-12util: Rewrite in_charset to use strspnJosh Triplett
This simplifies in_charset down to a one-liner, and allows for possible optimizations of strspn in libc.
2014-03-11util: add files_same() helper functionHarald Hoyer
files_same() returns 1, if the files are the same 0, if the files have different inode/dev numbers errno, for any stat error

2014-03-06util: move more intellegince into parse_proc_cmdline()Lennart Poettering
Already split variable assignments before invoking the callback. And drop "rd." settings if we are not in an initrd.

2014-03-04logind: make $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR a per-user tmpfsLennart Poettering
This way each user allocates from his own pool, with its own size limit. This puts the size limit by default to 10% of the physical RAM size but makes it configurable in logind.conf.
2014-03-02Disallow sizes with increasing unit sizeZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
Things like 3B4T, 4B50B, 400 100 (meaning 4*1024**4+3, 54, and 500, respectively) are now disallowed. It is necessary to say 4T3B, 54B, 500 instead. I think this was confusing and error prone. As a special form, 400B 100 is allowed, i.e. "B" suffix is treated as different from "", although they mean the same thing.
2014-03-02Allow fractional parts in disk sizesZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
It seems natural to be able to say SystemMaxUsage=1.5G. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1047568
2014-02-23core: clean up some confusing regarding SI decimal and IEC binary suffixes ↵Lennart Poettering
for sizes According to Wikipedia it is customary to specify hardware metrics and transfer speeds to the basis 1000 (SI decimal), while software metrics and physical volatile memory (RAM) sizes to the basis 1024 (IEC binary). So far we specified everything in IEC, let's fix that and be more true to what's otherwise customary. Since we don't want to parse "Mi" instead of "M" we document each time what the context used is.

2014-02-19make gcc shut upLennart Poettering
If -flto is used then gcc will generate a lot more warnings than before, among them a number of use-without-initialization warnings. Most of them without are false positives, but let's make them go away, because it doesn't really matter.

Previously, we'd fixed show_state only after printing the welcome message which had the effect that the welcome message was almost always suppressed.
2014-02-17Extract looping over /proc/cmdline into a shared functionZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek
In cryptsetup-generator automatic cleanup had to be replaced with manual cleanup, and the code gets a bit longer. But existing code had the issue that it returned negative values from main(), which was wrong, so should be reworked anyway.

2014-02-14core: fix detection of dead processesYuxuan Shui
Commit 5ba6985b moves the UNIT_VTABLE(u)->sigchld_event before systemd actually reaps the zombie. Which leads to service_load_pid_file accepting zombie as a valid pid. This fixes timeouts like: [ 2746.602243] systemd[1]: chronyd.service stop-sigterm timed out. Killing. [ 2836.852545] systemd[1]: chronyd.service still around after SIGKILL. Ignoring. [ 2927.102187] systemd[1]: chronyd.service stop-final-sigterm timed out. Killing. [ 3017.352560] systemd[1]: chronyd.service still around after final SIGKILL. Entering failed mode.
2014-02-14shared: include root when canonicalizing conf pathsMichael Marineau
The conf_files_list family accepts an alternate root path to prefix all directories in the list but path_strv_canonicalize_uniq doesn't use it. This results in the suspicious behavior of resolving directory symlinks based on the contents of / instead of the alternate root. This adds a prefix argument to path_strv_canonicalize which will now prepend the prefix, if given, to every path in the list. To avoid answering what a relative path means when called with a root prefix path_strv_canonicalize is now path_strv_canonicalize_absolute and only considers absolute paths. Fortunately all users of already call path_strv_canonicalize with a list of absolute paths.
