We can not reliably manage any notion of local time. Every daylight
saving time change or time zone change by traveling will make the
time jump, and the local time might jump backwards which creates
unsolvable problems with file timestamps.
We will no longer tell the kernel our local time zone and leave
everything set to UTC. This will effectively turn FAT timestamps
into UTC timestamps.
If and only if the machine is configured to read the RTC in local
time mode, the kernel's time zone will be configured, but
systemd-timesysnc will disable the kernel's system time to RTC
syncing. In this mode, the RTC will not be managed, and external
tools like Windows bootups are expected to manage the RTC's time.

This way we can reuse it other code thatn just localectl/localed +
timedatectl/timedated.

sec is not set if have_time is false so avoid using it. have_time
was introduced in 9ff09bcb86fb125768667aca9bc0b10b1745370a but only
the first uses for sec were covered
Found with scan-build

Which does have TimeUSec. Should we specifically check for this method
instead of assuming time=0 means it doesn't exist?

Introduces a new concept of "trusted" vs. "untrusted" busses. For the
latter libsystemd-bus will automatically do per-method access control,
for the former all access is automatically granted. Per-method access
control is encoded in the vtables: by default all methods are only
accessible to privileged clients. If the SD_BUS_VTABLE_UNPRIVILEGED flag
is set for a method it is accessible to unprivileged clients too. By
default whether a client is privileged is determined via checking for
its CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability, but this can be altered via the
SD_BUS_VTABLE_CAPABILITY() macro that can be ORed into the flags field
of the method.
Writable properties are also subject to SD_BUS_VTABLE_UNPRIVILEGED and
SD_BUS_VTABLE_CAPABILITY() for controlling write access to them. Note
however that read access is unrestricted, as PropertiesChanged messages
might send out the values anyway as an unrestricted broadcast.
By default the system bus is set to "untrusted" and the user bus is
"trusted" since per-method access control on the latter is unnecessary.
On dbus1 busses we check the UID of the caller rather than the
configured capability since the capability cannot be determined without
race. On kdbus the capability is checked if possible from the attached
meta-data of a message and otherwise queried from the sending peer.
This also decorates the vtables of the various daemons we ship with
these flags.

Use [brackets] only for optional elements.
Use <optional> in XML sources.

Among other things this makes sure we always expose a --version command
and show it in the help texts.

This allow querying the RTC time from the unprivileged timedatectl.
|
|
|
|
This way, timedatectl can be run over the network and determine all
properties correctly from the server rather than the client.

Use proper grammar, word usage, adjective hyphenation, commas,
capitalization, spelling, etc.
To improve readability, some run-on sentences or sentence fragments were
revised.
[zj: remove the space from 'file name', 'host name', and 'time zone'.]

Without this you have to use %40 with the -H flag because dbus doesn't
like the @ sign being unescaped.
|
|
POSIX_ME_HARDER mode is disabled for localectl. It doesn't
make much sense in case of localectl, and there's little reason
for localectl to behave specially.

Before, we would initialize many fields twice: first
by filling the structure with zeros, and then a second
time with the real values. We can let the compiler do
the job for us, avoiding one copy.
A downside of this patch is that text gets slightly
bigger. This is because all zero() calls are effectively
inlined:
$ size build/.libs/systemd
text data bss dec hex filename
before 897737 107300 2560 1007597 f5fed build/.libs/systemd
after 897873 107300 2560 1007733 f6075 build/.libs/systemd
… actually less than 1‰.
A few asserts that the parameter is not null had to be removed. I
don't think this changes much, because first, it is quite unlikely
for the assert to fail, and second, an immediate SEGV is almost as
good as an assert.

$ journalctl -be

Clearer, and spares the temp variable.

Yay, we now have a completely generic systemd. No distribution specific checks anymore!

Much like logind has a client in loginctl, and journald in journalctl
introduce timedatectl, to change the system time (incl. RTC), timezones
and related settings.
