I figure "pull-dck" is not a good name, given that one could certainly
read the verb in a way that might be funny for 16year-olds. ;-)
Also, don't hardcode the index URL to use, make it runtime and configure
time configurable instead.
It helps editing units by either creating a drop-in file, like
/etc/systemd/system/my.service.d/override.conf, or by copying the
original unit from /usr/lib/systemd/ to /etc/systemd/ if the --full
option is specified.
It invokes an editor on temporary files related to the unit files and
if the editor exited successfully, then it renames the temporary files
to their original names (e.g. my.service or override.conf) and
daemon-reload is invoked.
If the temporary file is empty the modification is canceled.

The term "priority" is misleading because higher levels have lower
priority. "Level" is clearer and shorter.
This commit touches only the textual descriptions, not function and variable
names themselves. "Priority" is used in various command-line switches and
protocol constants, so completly getting rid of "priority" is hard.
I also left "priority" in various places where the clarity suffered
when it was removed.
Yum was creating <container>/var/run/yum.pid and hence this directory
was created before filesystem package could create the symlink
/var/run -> /run.
This should be now fixed in yum.
Now route metric can be configuted via conf file:
example conf:
[Match]
Name=em1
[Route]
Gateway=192.168.1.12
Metric=10
Test:
ip route output
default via 192.168.1.12 dev em1 metric 10
[tomegun: squash TODO update and reword man page a bit]
Running systemctl enable/disable/set-default/... with the --root
option under strace reveals that it accessed various files and
directories in the main fs, and not underneath the specified root.
This can lead to correct results only when the layout and
configuration in the container are identical, which often is not the
case. Fix this by adding the specified root to all file access
operations.
This patch does not handle some corner cases: symlinks which point
outside of the specified root might be interpreted differently than
they would be by the kernel if the specified root was the real root.
But systemctl does not create such symlinks by itself, and I think
this is enough of a corner case not to be worth the additional
complexity of reimplementing link chasing in systemd.
Also, simplify the code in a few places and remove an hypothetical
memory leak on error.
Most likely the facility needed is actual connectivity, rather than whether or not the
network managment daemon is running.
We also need to explicitly pull in the network-online.target, as it is not active by
default.
This means {systemd-networkd,NetworkManager}-wait-online.service, can be enabled by default
as part of network-online.target, and only delay boot when some service actively pulls it in.

Currently when both ipv4ll and dhcp are enabled, ipv4ll
address (if one has been claimed) is removed when dhcp
address is aquired. This is not the best thing to do
since there might be clients unaware of the removal
trying to communicate.
This patch provides a smooth transition between ipv4ll
and dhcp. If ipv4ll address was claimed [1] before dhcp,
address is marked as deprecated. Deprecated address is still
a valid address and packets can be received on it but address
cannot be selected as a source address. If dhcp lease cannot
be extended, then ipv4ll address is marked as valid again.
[1] If there is no collision, claiming IPv4LL takes between 4 to
7 seconds.
tcpwrap is legacy code, that is barely maintained upstream. It's APIs
are awful, and the feature set it exposes (such as DNS and IDENT
access control) questionnable. We should not support this natively in
systemd.
Hence, let's remove the code. If people want to continue making use of
this, they can do so by plugging in "tcpd" for the processes they start.
With that scheme things are as well or badly supported as they were from
traditional inetd, hence no functionality is really lost.
If you allocate a message with bus==NULL and then unref the main bus,
it will free your message underneath and your program will go boom!
To fix that, we really need to figure out what the semantics for
self-references (m->bus) should be and when/where/what accesses are
actually allowed.
Same is true for the pseudo-thread-safety we employ..
Increase the chance of using the same link local address between reboots. The
pseudo random sequence of addresses we attempt is now seeded with data that is
very likely to stay the same between reboots, but at the same time be unique
to the specific machine/nic.
First we try to use the ID_NET_NAME_* data from the udev db combined with the
machin-id, which is guaranteed to be unique and persistent, if available. If
that is not possible (e.g., in containers where we don't have access to the
udev db) we fallback to using the MAC address of the interface, which is
guaranteed to be unique, and likely to be persistent.
[tomegun: three minor changes:
- don't expose HASH_KEY in the siphash24 header
- get rid of some compile-warnings (and some casts at the same time),
by using uint8_t[8] rather than uint64_t in the api
- added commit message]
Implements IPv4LL with respect to RFC 3927
(http://tools.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3927.txt) and integrates it
with networkd. Majority of the IPv4LL state machine is
taken from avahi (http://avahi.org/) project's autoip.
IPv4LL can be enabled by IPv4LL=yes under [Network]
section of .network file.
IPv4LL works independent of DHCP but if DHCP lease is
aquired, then LL address will be dropped.
[tomegun: removed a trailing newline and a compiler warning]
This adds the host side of the veth link to the given bridge.
Also refactor the creation of the veth interfaces a bit to set it up
from the host rather than the container. This simplifies the addition
to the bridge, but otherwise the behavior is unchanged.
We cannot remove CAP_SYS_ADMIN, which basically makes removing all other
capabilities useless. Anyhow, still wouldn't hurt checking whether stuff
like CAP_KILL can be dropped from logind.
This way we have four kinds of properties:
a) those which are constant as long as an object exists
b) those which can change and PropertiesChange messages with contents are generated
c) those which can change and where the PropertesChange merely includes invalidation
d) those which can change but for which no events are generated
Clients (through code generators run on the introspection XML) can thus
aggressively cache a, b, c, with only d excluded.
Uevents are events of the host, which should not leak into a container.
Containers do not support hotplug at the moment, and devices and uevents
are not namespace aware.
The pattern of unreffing an IO event source and then closing its fd is
frequently seen in even source callbacks. Previously this likely
resultet in us removing the fd from the epoll after it was closed which
is problematic, since while we were dispatching we always kept an extra
reference to event source objects because we might still need it later.
With this change a failing event source handler will not cause the
entire event loop to fail. Instead, we just disable the specific event
source, log a message at debug level and go on.
This also introduces a new concept of "exit code" which can be stored in
the event loop and is returned by sd_event_loop(). We also rename "quit"
to "exit" everywhere else.
Altogether this should make things more robus and keep errors local
while still providing a way to return event loop errors in a clear way.
This adds the new library call sd_journal_open_container() and a new
"-M" switch to journalctl. Particular care is taken that journalctl's
"-b" switch resolves to the current boot ID of the container, not the
host.
Adds a new call sd_event_set_watchdog() that can be used to hook up the
event loop with the watchdog supervision logic of systemd. If enabled
and $WATCHDOG_USEC is set the event loop will ping the invoking systemd
daemon right after coming back from epoll_wait() but not more often than
$WATCHDOG_USEC/4. The epoll_wait() will sleep no longer than
$WATCHDOG_USEC/4*3, to make sure the service manager is called in time.
This means that setting WatchdogSec= in a .service file and calling
sd_event_set_watchdog() in your daemon is enough to hook it up with the
watchdog logic.
That way the even source callback is run with the zombie process still
around so that it can access /proc/$PID/ and similar, and so that it can
be sure that the PID has not been reused yet.
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.
It tries to find a suitable QEMU binary and will use KVM if present.
We can now configure QEMU from outside with 4 variables :
- $QEMU_BIN : path to QEMU's binary
- $KERNEL_APPEND : arguments appended to kernel cmdline
- $KERNEL_BIN : path to a kernel
Default /boot/vmlinuz-$KERNEL_VER
- $INITRD : path to an initramfs
Default /boot/initramfs-${KERNEL_VER}.img
- $QEMU_SMP : number of CPU simulated by QEMU.
Default 1
(from Alexander Graf's script: http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg72389.html)
Instead of returning an enum of return codes, make them return error
codes like kdbus does internally.
Also, document this behaviour so that clients can stick to it.
(Also rework bus-control.c to always have to functions for dbus1 vs.
kernel implementation of the various calls.)
Since we want to retain the ability to break kernel ←→ userspace ABI
after the next release, let's not make use by default of kdbus, so that
people with future kernels will not suddenly break with current systemd
versions.
kdbus support is left in all builds but must now be explicitly requested
at runtime (for example via setting $DBUS_SESSION_BUS). Via a configure
switch the old behaviour can be restored. In fact, we change autogen.sh
to do this, so that git builds (which run autogen.sh) get kdbus by
default, but tarball builds (which ue the configure defaults) do not get
it, and hence this stays out of the distros by default.
This reverts commit adcf4c81c5.
We have a better solution for the problem of making two processes run in
the same namespace, and --listener is not needed hence and should be
dropped.

commit - 369c583b3f
Message handler callbacks can be simplified drastically if the
dispatcher automatically replies to method calls if errors are returned.
Thus: add an sd_bus_error argument to all message handlers. When we
dispatch a message handler and it returns negative or a set sd_bus_error
we send this as message error back to the client. This means errors
returned by handlers by default are given back to clients instead of
rippling all the way up to the event loop, which is desirable to make
things robust.
As a side-effect we can now easily turn the SELinux checks into normal
function calls, since the method call dispatcher will generate the right
error replies automatically now.
Also, make sure we always pass the error structure to all property and
method handlers as last argument to follow the usual style of passing
variables for return values as last argument.
This patch converts PID 1 to libsystemd-bus and thus drops the
dependency on libdbus. The only remaining code using libdbus is a test
case that validates our bus marshalling against libdbus' marshalling,
and this dependency can be turned off.
This patch also adds a couple of things to libsystem-bus, that are
necessary to make the port work:
- Synthesizing of "Disconnected" messages when bus connections are
severed.
- Support for attaching multiple vtables for the same interface on the
same path.
This patch also fixes the SetDefaultTarget() and GetDefaultTarget() bus
calls which used an inappropriate signature.
As a side effect we will now generate PropertiesChanged messages which
carry property contents, rather than just invalidation information.
When a service exits succesfully and has RemainAfterExit set, its hold
on the console (in m->n_on_console) wasn't released since the unit state
didn't change.
This tool applies hardware specific settings to network devices before they
are announced via libudev.
Settings that will probably eventually be supported are MTU, Speed,
DuplexMode, WakeOnLan, MACAddress, MACAddressPolicy (e.g., 'hardware',
'synthetic' or 'random'), Name and NamePolicy (replacing our current
interface naming logic). This patch only introduces support for
Description, as a proof of concept.
Some of these settings may later be overriden by a network management
daemon/script. However, these tools should always listen and wait on libudev
before touching a device (listening on netlink is not enough). This is no
different from how things used to be, as we always supported changing the
network interface name from udev rules, which does not work if someone
has already started using it.
The tool is configured by .link files in /etc/net/links/ (with the usual
overriding logic in /run and /lib). The first (in lexicographical order)
matching .link file is applied to a given device, and all others are ignored.
The .link files contain a [Match] section with (currently) the keys
MACAddress, Driver, Type (see DEVTYPE in udevadm info) and Path (this
matches on the stable device path as exposed as ID_PATH, and not the
unstable DEVPATH). A .link file matches a given device if all of the
specified keys do. Currently the keys are treated as plain strings,
but some limited globbing may later be added to the keys where it
makes sense.
Example:
/etc/net/links/50-wireless.link
[Match]
MACAddress=98:f2:e4:42:c6:92
Path=pci-0000:02:00.0-bcma-0
Type=wlan

We now treat passno as boleans in the generators, and don't need this any more. fsck itself
is able to sequentialize checks on the same local media, so in the common case the ordering
is redundant.
It is still possible to force an order by using .d fragments, in case that is desired.

This adds a lightweight scheme how to define interfaces in static fixed
arrays which then can be easily registered on a bus connection. This
makes it much easier to write bus services.
This automatically handles implementation of the Properties,
ObjectManager, and Introspection bus interfaces.
The cgroup attribute memory.soft_limit_in_bytes is unlikely to stay
around in the kernel for good, so let's not expose it for now. We can
readd something like it later when the kernel guys decided on a final
API for this.
This adds a simple generator that is capable of automatically
discovering certain GPT partitions by their type UUID and mount/enable
them. This currently covers swap partitions and /home partitions, but is
expected to grow more features soon.
This currently doesn't handle LUKS encrypted /home.
This enables all swap partitions of type
0657fd6da4ab43c484e50933c84b4f4f, if found.
This mounts the first partition of type 933ac7e12eb44f13b8440e14e2aef915
as /home, if it is found.
So far, we would show up to 128 bytes from a message, simply
cutting of the rest. With multiline messages, it is quite common
for a message to be longer than that, and this model doesn't really
work anymore.
A new limit is added: up to 3 lines will be shown, unless --full is
used (c.f. first line below). The limit for bytes is extended to 300
bytes. An ellipsis will always be used, if some form of truncation
occurs. If the tail of the message is cut off, either because of
length or line limit, dots will be shown at the end of the last
line. If this last line is short, the dots will be simply appended. If
the last line is too long for that, it will be ellipsized with dots at
the very end.
Note that the limits are in bytes, not characters, and we suck at
outputting unicode strings (c.f. last three lines below).

"systemctl set-log-level" is a command for analysis and tracing hence
"systemd-analyze" should be the better home for it, thus allowing us to
make the overly large "systemctl" a bit smaller.
It's an analysis command and its format is explicitly not covered by any
stability guarantees, hence move away from systemctl and into
systemd-analyze, minimizing the already large interface of systemctl a
bit.
This patch also adds auto-paging to the various systemd-analyze commands
where that makes sense
$ systemctl --user status hoohoo
hoohoo.service
Loaded: loaded (/home/zbyszek/.config/systemd/user/hoohoo.service; static)
Active: inactive (dead)

Full information is exported over D-Bus:
[(condition, trigger, negate, param, state),...]
where state is one of "failed" (<0), "untested" (0), "OK" (>0).
I've decided to use 0 for "untested", because it might be useful to
differentiate different types of failure later on, without breaking
compatibility.
systemctl shows the failing condition, if there was a non-trigger
failing condition, or says "none of the trigger conditions were met",
because there're often many trigger conditions, and they must all
fail for the condition to fail, so printing them all would consume
a lot of space, and bring unnecessary attention to something that is
quite low-level.
A few asserts are replaced with 'return -EINVAL'. I think that
assert should not be used to check argument in public functions.
Fields in struct sd_journal are rearranged to make it less

Hi,
I redid the boot ID look up to use enumerate_unique.
This is quite fast if the cache is warm but painfully slow if
it isn't. It has a slight chance of returning the wrong order if
realtime clock jumps around.
This one has to do n searches for every boot ID there is plus
a sort, so it depends heavily on cache hotness. This is in contrast
to the other way of look-up through filtering by a MESSAGE_ID,
which only needs about 1 seek + whatever amount of relative IDs
you want to walk.
I also have a linked-list + (in-place) mergesort version of this
patch, which has pretty much the same runtime. But since this one
is using libc sorting and armortized allocation, I prefer this
one.
To summarize: The MESSAGE_ID way is a *lot* faster but can be
incomplete due to rotation, while the enumerate+sort will find
every boot ID out there but will be painfully slow for large
journals and cold caches.
You choose :P

As of kmod v14, it is possible to export the static node information from
/lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.devname in tmpfiles.d(5) format.
Use this functionality to let systemd-tmpfilesd create the static device nodes
at boot, and drop the functionality from systemd-udevd.
As an effect of this we can move from systemd-udevd to systemd-tmpfiles-setup-dev:
* the conditional CAP_MKNOD (replaced by checking if /sys is mounted rw)
* ordering before local-fs-pre.target (see 89d09e1b5c)
In order to prepare things for the single-writer cgroup scheme, let's
make logind use systemd's own primitives for cgroup management.
Every login user now gets his own private slice unit, in which his sessions
live in a scope unit each. Also, add user@$UID.service to the same
slice, and implicitly start it on first login.
"Scope" units are very much like service units, however with the
difference that they are created from pre-existing processes, rather
than processes that systemd itself forks off. This means they are
generated programmatically via the bus API as transient units rather
than from static configuration read from disk. Also, they do not provide
execution-time parameters, as at the time systemd adds the processes to
the scope unit they already exist and the parameters cannot be applied
anymore.
The primary benefit of this new unit type is to create arbitrary cgroups
for worker-processes forked off an existing service.
This commit also adds a a new mode to "systemd-run" to run the specified
processes in a scope rather then a transient service.
Transient units can be created via the bus API. They are configured via
the method call parameters rather than on-disk files. They are subject
to normal GC. Transient units currently may only be created for
services (however, we will extend this), and currently only ExecStart=
and the cgroup parameters can be configured (also to be extended).
Transient units require a unique name, that previously had no
configuration file on disk.
A tool systemd-run is added that makes use of this functionality to run
arbitrary command lines as transient services:
$ systemd-run /bin/ping www.heise.de
Will cause systemd to create a new transient service and run ping in it.
This introduces two bus calls to make runtime changes to selected bus
properties, optionally with persistence.
This currently hooks this up only for three cgroup atributes, but this
brings the infrastructure to add more changable attributes.
This allows setting multiple attributes at once, and takes an array
rather than a dictionary of properties, in order to implement simple
resetting of lists using the same approach as when they are sourced from
unit files. This means, that list properties are appended to by this
call, unless they are first reset via assigning the empty list.
Replace the very generic cgroup hookup with a much simpler one. With
this change only the high-level cgroup settings remain, the ability to
set arbitrary cgroup attributes is removed, so is support for adding
units to arbitrary cgroup controllers or setting arbitrary paths for
them (especially paths that are different for the various controllers).
This also introduces a new -.slice root slice, that is the parent of
system.slice and friends. This enables easy admin configuration of
root-level cgrouo properties.
This replaces DeviceDeny= by DevicePolicy=, and implicitly adds in
/dev/null, /dev/zero and friends if DeviceAllow= is used (unless this is
turned off by DevicePolicy=).
- This changes all logind cgroup objects to use slice objects rather
than fixed croup locations.
- logind can now collect minimal information about running
VMs/containers. As fixed cgroup locations can no longer be used we
need an entity that keeps track of machine cgroups in whatever slice
they might be located. Since logind already keeps track of users,
sessions and seats this is a trivial addition.
- nspawn will now register with logind and pass various bits of metadata
along. A new option "--slice=" has been added to place the container
in a specific slice.
- loginctl gained commands to list, introspect and terminate machines.
- user.slice and machine.slice will now be pulled in by logind.service,
since only logind.service requires this slice.
In order to prepare for the kernel cgroup rework, let's introduce a new
unit type to systemd, the "slice". Slices can be arranged in a tree and
are useful to partition resources freely and hierarchally by the user.
Each service unit can now be assigned to one of these slices, and later
on login users and machines may too.
Slices translate pretty directly to the cgroup hierarchy, and the
various objects can be assigned to any of the slices in the tree.
Also reworded a few debug messages for brevity, and added a log
statement which prints out the filter at debug level:
Journal filter: (((UNIT=sys-module-configfs.device AND _PID=1) OR (COREDUMP_UNIT=sys-module-configfs.device AND MESSAGE_ID=fc2e22bc6ee647b6b90729ab34a250b1) OR _SYSTEMD_UNIT=sys-module-configfs.device) AND _BOOT_ID=4e3c518ab0474c12ac8de7896fe6b154)
We want to allow clients to process an sd_bus_message on a different
thread than it was received on. Since unreffing a bus message might
readd some of its memfds to the memfd cache add some minimal locking
around the cache.
Just as with SMACK, we don't really know if a policy has been
loaded or not, as the policy interface is write-only. Assume
therefore that if ima is present in securityfs that it is
enabled.
Update the man page to reflect that "ima" is a valid option
now as well.
A new config file /etc/systemd/sleep.conf is added.
It is parsed by systemd-sleep and logind. The strings written
to /sys/power/disk and /sys/power/state can be configured.
This allows people to use different modes of suspend on
systems with broken or special hardware.
Configuration is shared between systemd-sleep and logind
to enable logind to answer the question "can the system be
put to sleep" as correctly as possible without actually
invoking the action. If the user configured systemd-sleep
to only use 'freeze', but current kernel does not support it,
logind will properly report that the system cannot be put
to sleep.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=57793https://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git;a=commit;h=7e73c5ae6e7991a6c01f6d096ff8afaef4458c36http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/009238.html
SYSTEM_CONFIG_FILE and USER_CONFIG_FILE defines were removed
since they were used in only a few places and with the
addition of /etc/systemd/sleep.conf it becomes easier to just
append the name of each file to the dir name.
Bootchart has a help option. For the sake of consistency, this patch
adds it to the man page.
Also, the TODO is updated. Bootcharts were added to the journal in
commit c4d58b0.
This makes sure nss-myhostname not only resolves the local host name to
127.0.0.2/::1 but also the host name 'localhost: to 127.0.0.1/::1. This
makes installation of /etc/passwd optional, as it usually only includes
a mapping for 'localhost'.
This change also resolves ::1 to the local hostname (as before), but
also lists 'localhost' as an alias. This means look-ups are now fully
reversible, even though they are 1:n mappings.
Finally, the module will no longer erroneously claim that local IP
addresses which aren't on the loopback device were.
Session objects will now get the .session suffix, user objects the .user
suffix, nspawn containers the .nspawn suffix.
This also changes the user cgroups to be named after the numeric UID
rather than the username, since this allows us the parse these paths
standalone without requiring access to the cgroup file system.
This also changes the mapping of instanced units to cgroups. Instead of
mapping foo@bar.service to the cgroup path /user/foo@.service/bar we
will now map it to /user/foo@.service/foo@bar.service, in order to
ensure that all our objects are properly suffixed in the tree.
All attributes are stored as text, since root_directory is already
text, and it seems easier to have all of them in text format.
Attributes are written in the trusted. namespace, because the kernel
currently does not allow user. attributes on cgroups. This is a PITA,
and CAP_SYS_ADMIN is required to *read* the attributes. Alas.
A second pipe is opened for the child to signal the parent that the
cgroup hierarchy has been set up.
This changes the fstab mount option x-initrd-rootfs.mount to
x-initrd.rootfs, in order to only use a single namespace "x-initrd." for
all mount options of the initrd.
Setting MaxRetentionSec= caused the kernel log to overflow and the
journal daemon to enter an endless loop.
Logging from the journald main loop gets directed to /dev/kmsg,
which wakes up journald again. We skip the import of this message
by checking for our own PID, but this still causes the main loop
to never go to sleep again because we never stopped logging from
there.
Getting the cursor is split out from .get_next() into
.get_cursor(). This mirrors the C API more closely, and
also makes things a bit faster if the cursor is not needed.
The properties will still be set in the udev database, but they will not be used
for setting the interface names. As for the other kernel commandline switches,
we allow it to be prefixed by 'rd.' to only apply in the initrd.
Please see the documentation (e.g. pydoc3 systemd.daemon) for full
description. As usual, systemd._daemon wraps the raw interface, while
systemd.daemon provides the more pythonic API. sd_listen_fds,
sd_booted, sd_is_fifo, sd_is_socket, sd_is_socket_unix,
sd_is_socket_inet, sd_is_mq, and SD_LISTEN_FDS_START are currently
wrapped.
The userspace firmware loader is deprecated now, and will be entirely
removed when we depend on a kernel version with the built-in firmware
loader available.
I originally added this to stay as compatible as possible with the kernel, but
as Lennart argued it is not really useful in the initramfs, so let's drop it (we
already don't support 'rootdealy').
We currently enforce that seats are to be named in the form of
"seatXXX", i.e. need to begin with the 4 characters "seat". Thus,
"seat-master" would qualify as a seat name. As seat names are frequently
used as tags on devices, the "seat-master" tag might hence confuse
logind if the user decides to name a seat "seat-master".
Hence, avoid any ambuigity: let's rename the "seat-master" tag to
"master-of-seat".
