Currently, a loss of power after the machine-id was written but before
all units with ConditionFirstBoot=yes ran would lead to the next boot
finding a valid machine-id, thus not being marked first boot and not
re-running these units.
To make the first boot mechanism more robust, instead of writing
/etc/machine-id very early, fill it with a marker value "uninitialized"
and overmount it with a transiently provisioned machine-id. Then, after
the first boots completes (when systemd-machine-id-commit.service runs),
write the real machine-id to disk.
This mechanism is of course only invoked on first boot. If a first boot
is not detected, the machine-id is handled as previously.
Fixes: #4511
Code should not be reached 'Unhandled option' at src/machine-id-setup/machine-id-setup-main.c:97, function parse_argv(). Aborting.
Aborted
This behaviour is not good and will confuse user.

Ideally, coccinelle would strip unnecessary braces too. But I do not see any
option in coccinelle for this, so instead, I edited the patch text using
search&replace to remove the braces. Unfortunately this is not fully automatic,
in particular it didn't deal well with if-else-if-else blocks and ifdefs, so
there is an increased likelikehood be some bugs in such spots.
I also removed part of the patch that coccinelle generated for udev, where we
returns -1 for failure. This should be fixed independently.
This is a bit like the info link in most of GNU's --help texts, but we
don't do info but man pages, and we make them properly clickable on
terminal supporting that, because awesome.
I think it's generally advisable to link up our (brief) --help texts and
our (more comprehensive) man pages a bit, so this should be an easy and
straight-forward way to do it.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
Allow for overriding all other machine-ids which may be present on
the system using a kernel command line systemd.machine_id or
--machine-id= option.
This is especially useful for network booted systems where the
machine-id needs to be static, or for containers where a specific
machine-id is wanted.
And remove machine-id-commit as separate binary.
There's really no point in keeping this separate, as the sources are
pretty much identical, and have pretty identical interfaces. Let's unify
this in one binary.
Given that machine-id-commit was a private binary of systemd (shipped in
/usr/lib/) removing the tool is not an API break.
While we are at it, improve the documentation of the command substantially.
This also allows us to drop build.h from a ton of files, hence do so.
Since we touched the #includes of those files, let's order them properly
according to CODING_STYLE.
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.
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.
This makes it possible to initialize the /etc/machine-id file on an
arbitrary filesystem hierarchy. This helps systems that wish to run
this at image creation time in a subdirectory, or from initramfs before
pivot-root is called.
