Let's make /run/host the sole place we pass stuff from host to container
in and place the "inaccessible" nodes in /run/host too.
In contrast to the previous two commits this is a minor compat break, but
not a relevant one I think. Previously the container manager would place
these nodes in /run/systemd/inaccessible/ and that's where PID 1 in the
container would try to add them too when missing. Container manager and
PID 1 in the container would thus manage the same dir together.
With this change the container manager now passes an immutable directory
to the container and leaves /run/systemd entirely untouched, and managed
exclusively by PID 1 inside the container, which is nice to have clear
separation on who manages what.
In order to make sure systemd then usses the /run/host/inaccesible/
nodes this commit changes PID 1 to look for that dir and if it exists
will symlink it to /run/systemd/inaccessible.
Now, this will work fine if new nspawn and new pid 1 in the container
work together. as then the symlink is created and the difference between
the two dirs won't matter.
For the case where an old nspawn invokes a new PID 1: in this case
things work as they always worked: the dir is managed together.
For the case where different container manager invokes a new PID 1: in
this case the nodes aren't typically passed in, and PID 1 in the
container will try to create them and will likely fail partially (though
gracefully) when trying to create char/block device nodes. THis is fine
though as there are fallbacks in place for that case.
For the case where a new nspawn invokes an old PID1: this is were the
(minor) incompatibily happens: in this case new nspawn will place the
nodes in the /run/host/inaccessible/ subdir, but the PID 1 in the
container won't look for them there. Since the nodes are also not
pre-created in /run/systed/inaccessible/ PID 1 will try to create them
there as if a different container manager sets them up. This is of
course not sexy, but is not a total loss, since as mentioned fallbacks
are in place anyway. Hence I think it's OK to accept this minor
incompatibility.
Let's make sure $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for the user instance and /run for the
system instance is always organized the same way: the "inaccessible"
device nodes should be placed in a subdir of either called "systemd" and
a subdir of that called "inaccessible".
This way we can emphasize the common behaviour, and only differ where
really necessary.
Follow-up for #13823
To support ProtectHome=y in a user namespace (which mounts the inaccessible
nodes), the nodes need to be accessible by the user. Create these paths and
devices in the user runtime directory so they can be used later if needed.
This splits out a bunch of functions from fileio.c that have to do with
temporary files. Simply to make the header files a bit shorter, and to
group things more nicely.
No code changes, just some rearranging of source files.
Let's generalize this, so that we can use this in nspawn later on, which
is pretty useful as we need to be able to mask files from the inner
child of nspawn too, where the host's /run/systemd/inaccessible
directory is not visible anymore. Moreover, if nspawn can create these
nodes on its own before the payload this means the payload can run with
fewer privileges.
