Gcc is spewing some warnings about uninitialized variables.
Let's get rid of the noise.
|

It is redundant to store 'hash' and 'compare' function pointers in
struct Hashmap separately. The functions always comprise a pair.
Store a single pointer to struct hash_ops instead.
systemd keeps hundreds of hashmaps, so this saves a little bit of
memory.

Needed for the stdin case where it could otherwise end up being used
uninitialized.

UIDs/GIDs from
This way we can guarantee a limited amount of compatibility with
login.defs, by generate an appopriate "r" line out of it, on package
installation.

This should resolve problems with tools like "grpck" and suchlike.

getopt is usually good at printing out a nice error message when
commandline options are invalid. It distinguishes between an unknown
option and a known option with a missing arg. It is better to let it
do its job and not use opterr=0 unless we actually want to suppress
messages. So remove opterr=0 in the few places where it wasn't really
useful.
When an error in options is encountered, we should not print a lengthy
help() and overwhelm the user, when we know precisely what is wrong
with the commandline. In addition, since help() prints to stdout, it
should not be used except when requested with -h or --help.
Also, simplify things here and there.

Also, fix fopen_temporary_label to set proper context. By chance,
all users so far used the same context, so the error didn't matter.
Also, check return value from label_init().

These files are specially labeled on SELinux systems, and we need to
preserve that label.

An administrator might want to block a certain sysusers config file from
being executed, e.g. to block the creation of a certain user.
Only a relatively short description is added in the man page, since
overrides should be relatively rare.

As pointed out by Miloslav Trmač it might be a good idea to make sure
that usernames stay with in the utmp-defined limits.

For most NSS calls it is documented that they return NULL + errno=0 when
an entry is not found. However, in reality it appears to be common to
return NULL + errno=ENOENT, instead. Handle that correctly, and don't
consider ENOENT a systematic error.

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.
