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]
Looked for definitions of functions using the *_compare_func() suffix.
Tested:
- Unit tests passed (ninja -C build/ test)
- Installed this build and booted with it.
Users are often surprised that "systemd-run" command lines like
"systemd-run -p User=idontexist /bin/true" will return successfully,
even though the logs show that the process couldn't be invoked, as the
user "idontexist" doesn't exist. This is because Type=simple will only
wait until fork() succeeded before returning start-up success.
This patch adds a new service type Type=exec, which is very similar to
Type=simple, but waits until the child process completed the execve()
before returning success. It uses a pipe that has O_CLOEXEC set for this
logic, so that the kernel automatically sends POLLHUP on it when the
execve() succeeded but leaves the pipe open if not. This means PID 1
waits exactly until the execve() succeeded in the child, and not longer
and not shorter, which is the desired functionality.
Making use of this new functionality, the command line
"systemd-run -p User=idontexist -p Type=exec /bin/true" will now fail,
as expected.
Whenever a unit is started fresh we should flush out any runtime data
from the previous cycle. We are pretty good at that already, but what so
far we missed was the ExecStart=/ExecStop=/… command exit status data.
Let's fix that, and properly flush out that stuff too.
Consider this service:
[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/sleep infinity
ExecStop=/bin/false
When this service is started, then stopped and then started again
"systemctl status" would show the ExecStop= results of the previous run
along with the ExecStart= results of the current one, which is very
confusing. With this patch this is corrected: the data is kept right
until the moment the new service cycle starts, and then flushed out.
Hence "systemctl status" in that case will only show the ExecStart=
data, but no ExecStop= data, like it should be.
This should fix part of the confusion of #9588
We always initialize it from the same field in ExecCommand anyway, hence
there's no point in passing it separately to exec_spawn(), after all we
already pass the ExecCommand structure itself anyway.
No change in behaviour.
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.
The function is similar to path_kill_slashes() but also removes
initial './', trailing '/.', and '/./' in the path.
When the second argument of path_simplify() is false, then it
behaves as the same as path_kill_slashes(). Hence, this also
replaces path_kill_slashes() with path_simplify().
This adds a flags parameter to unit_notify() which can be used to pass
additional notification information to the function. We the make the old
reload_failure boolean parameter one of these flags, and then add a new
flag that let's unit_notify() if we are configured to restart the
service.
Note that this adjusts behaviour of systemd to match what the docs say.
Fixes: #8398
When I see "test", I have to think three times what the return value
means. With "below" this is immediately clear. ratelimit_below(&limit)
sounds almost like English and is imho immediately obvious.
(I also considered ratelimit_ok, but this strongly implies that being under the
limit is somehow better. Most of the times this is true, but then we use the
ratelimit to detect triple-c-a-d, and "ok" doesn't fit so well there.)

Previously we were a bit sloppy with the index and size types of arrays,
we'd regularly use unsigned. While I don't think this ever resulted in
real issues I think we should be more careful there and follow a
stricter regime: unless there's a strong reason not to use size_t for
array sizes and indexes, size_t it should be. Any allocations we do
ultimately will use size_t anyway, and converting forth and back between
unsigned and size_t will always be a source of problems.
Note that on 32bit machines "unsigned" and "size_t" are equivalent, and
on 64bit machines our arrays shouldn't grow that large anyway, and if
they do we have a problem, however that kind of overly large allocation
we have protections for usually, but for overflows we do not have that
so much, hence let's add it.
So yeah, it's a story of the current code being already "good enough",
but I think some extra type hygiene is better.
This patch tries to be comprehensive, but it probably isn't and I missed
a few cases. But I guess we can cover that later as we notice it. Among
smaller fixes, this changes:
1. strv_length()' return type becomes size_t
2. the unit file changes array size becomes size_t
3. DNS answer and query array sizes become size_t

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 is similar to TAKE_PTR() but operates on file descriptors, and thus
assigns -1 to the fd parameter after returning it.
Removes 60 lines from our codebase. Pretty good too I think.
Otherwise having a .socket unit start a .service running a binary under
a chroot fails as the unit is unable to determine the SELinux label of
the binary.
This improves the BPF/cgroup detection logic, and looks whether
BPF_ALLOW_MULTI is supported. This flag allows execution of multiple
BPF filters in a recursive fashion for a whole cgroup tree. It enables
us to properly report IP accounting for slice units, as well as
delegation of BPF support to units without breaking our own IP
accounting.
No functional change.
The source unit manages the reference. It allocates the UnitRef structure and
registers it in the target unit, and then the reference must be destroyed
before the source unit is destroyed. Thus, is should be OK to include the
pointer to the source unit, it should be live as long as the reference exists.
v2:
- rename refs to refs_by_target
"check" is unclear: what is true, what is false? Let's rename to "can_gc" and
revert the return value ("positive" values are easier to grok).
v2:
- rename from unit_can_gc to unit_may_gc
Let's simplify things a bit: we so far called both functions every
single time, let's just merge one into the other, so that we have fewer
functions to call.
Before this, each ExecRuntime object is owned by a unit. However,
it may be shared with other units which enable JoinsNamespaceOf=.
Thus, by the serialization/deserialization process, its sharing
information, more specifically, reference counter is lost, and
causes issue #7790.
This makes ExecRuntime objects be managed by manager, and changes
the serialization/deserialization process.
Fixes#7790.
This renames wait_for_terminate_and_warn() to
wait_for_terminate_and_check(), and adds a flags parameter, that
controls how much to log: there's one flag that means we log about
abnormal stuff, and another one that controls whether we log about
non-zero exit codes. Finally, there's a shortcut flag value for logging
in both cases, as that's what we usually use.
All callers are accordingly updated. At three occasions duplicate logging
is removed, i.e. where the old function was called but logged in the
caller, too.
This adds a new safe_fork() wrapper around fork() and makes use of it
everywhere. The new wrapper does a couple of things we previously did
manually and separately in a safer, more correct and automatic way:
1. Optionally resets signal handlers/mask in the child
2. Sets a name on all processes we fork off right after forking off (and
the patch assigns useful names for all processes we fork off now,
following a systematic naming scheme: always enclosed in () – in order
to indicate that these are not proper, exec()ed processes, but only
forked off children, and if the process is long-running with only our
own code, without execve()'ing something else, it gets am "sd-" prefix.)
3. Optionally closes all file descriptors in the child
4. Optionally sets a PR_SET_DEATHSIG to SIGTERM in the child, in a safe
way so that the parent dying before this happens being handled
safely.
5. Optionally reopens the logs
6. Optionally connects stdin/stdout/stderr to /dev/null
7. Debug logs about the forked off processes.
Now that we don't kill control processes anymore, let's at least warn
about any processes left-over in the unit cgroup at the moment of
starting the unit.
This introduces a new function unit_prepare_exec() that encapsulates a
number of calls we do in preparation for spawning off some processes in
all our unit types that do so.
This allows us to neatly unify a bit of code between unit types and
shorten our code.
And let's make use of it to implement two new unit settings with it:
1. LogLevelMax= is a new per-unit setting that may be used to configure
log priority filtering: set it to LogLevelMax=notice and only
messages of level "notice" and lower (i.e. more important) will be
processed, all others are dropped.
2. LogExtraFields= is a new per-unit setting for configuring per-unit
journal fields, that are implicitly included in every log record
generated by the unit's processes. It takes field/value pairs in the
form of FOO=BAR.
Also, related to this, one exisiting unit setting is ported to this new
facility:
3. The invocation ID is now pulled from /run/systemd/units/ instead of
cgroupfs xattrs. This substantially relaxes requirements of systemd
on the kernel version and the privileges it runs with (specifically,
cgroupfs xattrs are not available in containers, since they are
stored in kernel memory, and hence are unsafe to permit to lesser
privileged code).
/run/systemd/units/ is a new directory, which contains a number of files
and symlinks encoding the above information. PID 1 creates and manages
these files, and journald reads them from there.
Note that this is supposed to be a direct path between PID 1 and the
journal only, due to the special runtime environment the journal runs
in. Normally, today we shouldn't introduce new interfaces that (mis-)use
a file system as IPC framework, and instead just an IPC system, but this
is very hard to do between the journal and PID 1, as long as the IPC
system is a subject PID 1 manages, and itself a client to the journal.
This patch cleans up a couple of types used in journal code:
specifically we switch to size_t for a couple of memory-sizing values,
as size_t is the right choice for everything that is memory.
Fixes: #4089Fixes: #3041Fixes: #4441
This replaces the dependencies Set* objects by Hashmap* objects, where
the key is the depending Unit, and the value is a bitmask encoding why
the specific dependency was created.
The bitmask contains a number of different, defined bits, that indicate
why dependencies exist, for example whether they are created due to
explicitly configured deps in files, by udev rules or implicitly.
Note that memory usage is not increased by this change, even though we
store more information, as we manage to encode the bit mask inside the
value pointer each Hashmap entry contains.
Why this all? When we know how a dependency came to be, we can update
dependencies correctly when a configuration source changes but others
are left unaltered. Specifically:
1. We can fix UDEV_WANTS dependency generation: so far we kept adding
dependencies configured that way, but if a device lost such a
dependency we couldn't them again as there was no scheme for removing
of dependencies in place.
2. We can implement "pin-pointed" reload of unit files. If we know what
dependencies were created as result of configuration in a unit file,
then we know what to flush out when we want to reload it.
3. It's useful for debugging: "systemd-analyze dump" now shows
this information, helping substantially with understanding how
systemd's dependency tree came to be the way it came to be.
