Like it's customary in our codebase bus_error_message() internally takes
abs() of the passed error anyway, hence no need to explicitly negate it.
We mostly got this right, but in too many cases we didn't. Fix that.
This is a fix-up for a7c71d214c37797d82de2f66cfe0a0a79c3a5c92: since we
now don't wait for the job to finish anymore right after enqueuing it,
we should not exit our ptyfwd logic before the unit is back to inactive
*and* no job pending anymore.
Otherwise we'd not read the services input while waiting for the job to
wait, and there's no point in waiting for the job anyway if we wait for
the unit to stop ultimately.
Fixes: #15395
This cleans up and unifies the outut of --help texts a bit:
1. Highlight the human friendly description string, not the command
line via ANSI sequences. Previously both this description string and
the brief command line summary was marked with the same ANSI
highlight sequence, but given we auto-page to less and less does not
honour multi-line highlights only the command line summary was
affectively highlighted. Rationale: for highlighting the description
instead of the command line: the command line summary is relatively
boring, and mostly the same for out tools, the description on the
other hand is pregnant, important and captions the whole thing and
hence deserves highlighting.
2. Always suffix "Options" with ":" in the help text
3. Rename "Flags" → "Options" in one case
4. Move commands to the top in a few cases
5. add coloring to many more help pages
6. Unify on COMMAND instead of {COMMAND} in the command line summary.
Some tools did it one way, others the other way. I am not sure what
precisely {} is supposed to mean, that uppercasing doesn't, hence
let's simplify and stick to the {}-less syntax
And minor other tweaks.
Fixes#13756. We were returning things that didn't make much sense:
we would always use the exit_code value as the exit code. But it sometimes
contains a exit code from the process, and sometimes the number of a signal
that was used to kill the process. We would also ignore SuccessExitStatus=
and in general whether systemd thinks the service exited successfully
(hence the issue in #13756, where systemd would return success/SIGTERM,
but we'd just look at the SIGTERM part.)
If we are doing --wait, let's always propagate the exit code/status from
the child.
While at it, make the documentation useful.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1763488: when we say that
'foo@*.service' is not a valid unit name, this is not clear enough. Let's
include the name of the operation that does not support globbing in the
error message:
$ build/systemctl enable 'foo@*.service'
Glob pattern passed to enable, but globs are not supported for this.
Invalid unit name "foo@*.service" escaped as "foo@\x2a.service".

When emitting the calendarspec warning we want to see some color.
Follow-up for 04220fda5c.
Exceptions:
- systemctl, because it has a lot hand-crafted coloring
- tmpfiles, sysusers, stdio-bridge, etc, because they are also used in
services and I'm not sure if this wouldn't mess up something.
When we determine that a calendar expression cannot elapse anymore,
print a warning but proceed regardless like we normally would.
Quite possibly a remote system has a different understanding of time
(timezone, system clock) than we have, hence we really shouldn't change
behaviour here client side, but log at best, and then leave the decision
what to do to the server side.
Follow-up for #12299
Services invoked by PID1 have $INVOCATION_ID initialized, hence let's do
that for scope units (where the payload process is invoked by us on the
client side) too, to minimize needless differences.
Fixes: #8082
I keep running "systemd-run -t /bin/bash" to quickly get a shell running
in service context. I suspect I am not the only one, hence let's add a
shortcut for it. While we are at it, let's make it smarter, and
automatically inherit the $SHELL of the invoking user as well as the
working directory, and let's imply --pty. --shell (or -S) is hence
equivalent to "-t -d $SHELL".
I find myself testing service management quite often with "systemd-run
-t /bin/bash". For that it is handy if the invoked shell would use the
working directory I am currently in. Hence introduce a shorthand for
that:
$ systemd-run -dt /bin/bash
This will automatically insert a WorkingDirectory= property into the
transient service, pointing to the working directory of the caller.
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.
Let's fold get_user_creds_clean() into get_user_creds(), and introduce a
flags argument for it to select "clean" behaviour. This flags parameter
also learns to other new flags:
- USER_CREDS_SYNTHESIZE_FALLBACK: in this mode the user records for
root/nobody are only synthesized as fallback. Normally, the synthesized
records take precedence over what is in the user database. With this
flag set this is reversed, and the user database takes precedence, and
the synthesized records are only used if they are missing there. This
flag should be set in cases where doing NSS is deemed safe, and where
there's interest in knowing the correct shell, for example if the
admin changed root's shell to zsh or suchlike.
- USER_CREDS_ALLOW_MISSING: if set, and a UID/GID is specified by
numeric value, and there's no user/group record for it accept it
anyway. This allows us to fix#9767
This then also ports all users to set the most appropriate flags.
Fixes: #9767
[zj: remove one isempty() call]
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.
This adds flags BUS_MAP_STRDUP and BUS_MAP_BOOLEAN_AS_BOOL.
If BUS_MAP_STRDUP is set, then each "s" message is duplicated.
If BUS_MAP_BOOLEAN_AS_BOOL is set, then each "b" message is
written to a bool pointer.
Follow-up for #8488.
See https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/8488#discussion_r175816270.
The warning is not emitted for absolute paths like /dev/sda or /home, which are
converted to .device and .mount unit names without any fuss.
Most of the time it's unlikely that users use invalid unit names on purpose,
so let's warn them. Warnings are silenced when --quiet is used.
$ build/systemctl show -p Id hello@foo-bar/baz
Invalid unit name "hello@foo-bar/baz" was escaped as "hello@foo-bar-baz" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?)
Id=hello@foo-bar-baz.service
$ build/systemd-run --user --slice foo-bar/baz --unit foo-bar/foo true
Invalid unit name "foo-bar/foo" was escaped as "foo-bar-foo" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?)
Invalid unit name "foo-bar/baz" was escaped as "foo-bar-baz" (maybe you should use systemd-escape?)
Running as unit: foo-bar-foo.service
Fixes#8302.
