The method already uses a boolean argument to determine whether it is in
whitelist mode or not. The code that will parse the string of filters
does not expect the ~, since it already has the boolean argument. Thus,
it will fail to parse the list of filters.
Currently we employ mostly system call blacklisting for our system
services. Let's add a new system call filter group @system-service that
helps turning this around into a whitelist by default.
The new group is very similar to nspawn's default filter list, but in
some ways more restricted (as sethostname() and suchlike shouldn't be
available to most system services just like that) and in others more
relaxed (for example @keyring is blocked in nspawn since it's not
properly virtualized yet in the kernel, but is fine for regular system
services).
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary.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.
They are not needed, because anything that is non-zero is converted
to true.

Let's always write "1 << 0", "1 << 1" and so on, except where we need
more than 31 flag bits, where we write "UINT64(1) << 0", and so on to force
64bit values.
This new setting is supposed to be useful in most cases where
"MountFlags=slave" is currently used, i.e. as an explicit way to run a
service in its own mount namespace and decouple propagation from all
mounts of the new mount namespace towards the host.
The effect of MountFlags=slave and PrivateMounts=yes is mostly the same,
as both cause a CLONE_NEWNS namespace to be opened, and both will result
in all mounts within it to be mounted MS_SLAVE. The difference is mostly
on the conceptual/philosophical level: configuring the propagation mode
is nothing people should have to think about, in particular as the
matter is not precisely easyto grok. Moreover, MountFlags= allows configuration
of "private" and "slave" modes which don't really make much sense to use
in real-life and are quite confusing. In particular PrivateMounts=private means
mounts made on the host stay pinned for good by the service which is
particularly nasty for removable media mount. And PrivateMounts=shared
is in most ways a NOP when used a alone...
The main technical difference between setting only MountFlags=slave or
only PrivateMounts=yes in a unit file is that the former remounts all
mounts to MS_SLAVE and leaves them there, while that latter remounts
them to MS_SHARED again right after. The latter is generally a nicer
approach, since it disables propagation, while MS_SHARED is afterwards
in effect, which is really nice as that means further namespacing down
the tree will get MS_SHARED logic by default and we unify how
applications see our mounts as we always pass them as MS_SHARED
regardless whether any mount namespacing is used or not.
The effect of PrivateMounts=yes was implied already by all the other
mount namespacing options. With this new option we add an explicit knob
for it, to request it without any other option used as well.
See: #4393
This is mostly fall-out from d1a1f0aaf0,
however some cases are older bugs.
There might be more issues lurking, this was a simple grep for "%m"
across the tree, with all lines removed that mention "errno" at all.
This way we don't need to repeat the argument twice.
I didn't replace all instances. I think it's better to leave out:
- asserts
- comparisons like x & y == x, which are mathematically equivalent, but
here we aren't checking if flags are set, but if the argument fits in the
flags.
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().
'systemctl disable --runtime' would disable a unit, but only if it was enabled
with '--runtime', and silently do nothing if the unit was enabled persistently.
And similarly 'systemctl disable' would do nothing if the unit was enabled in
/run. This just doesn't seem useful.
This pathch changes enable/disable and mask/unmask to be asymmetrical. enable
and mask create symlinks in /etc or /run, depending on whether --runtime was
specified. disable and unmask remove symlinks from both locations. --runtime
cannot be specified for the disable and unmask verbs.
The advantage is that 'disable' now means that the unit is disabled, period.
And similarly for 'unmask', all masks are removed.
Similarly for preset and preset-all, they now cannot be called with --runtime,
and are asymmetrical: when they enable a unit, symlinks are created in /etc.
When they disable a unit, all symlinks are nuked.

Also remove the comma from the comment everywhere, I think the comma
unnecessarilly put emphasis on the clause after the comma.
Fixes#9090.
Reproducer:
systemd-journal-remote --split-mode=none -o /tmp/msg6.journal --trust=all --listen-http=8080
systemd-journal-upload -u http://localhost:8080
journalctl --file /tmp/msg6.journal -o verbose -n1
journalctl -o short would display those entries, but journalctl -o short-full
would refuse. If the entry is bad, just fall back to the receive-side realtime
timestamp like we would if it was completely missing.
If the timestamp is above 9999-12-30, (or 2038-something-something on 32 bit),
use XXXX-XX-XX XX:XX:XX as the replacement.
The problem with refusing to print timestamps is that our code accepts such
timestamps, so we can't really just refuse to process them afterwards. Also, it
makes journal files non-portable, because suddently we might completely refuse
to print entries which are totally OK on a different machine.
We'd look for a '=' separator using memchr, i.e. ignoring any nul bytes in the
string, but then do a strndup, which would terminate on any nul byte, and then
again do a memcmp, which would access memory past the chunk allocated by strndup.
Of course, we probably shouldn't allow keys with nul bytes in them. But we
currently do, so there might be journal files like that out there. So let's fix
the journal-reading code first.
This introduces several macros for defining config parsers.
Also this fixes errno in DEFINE_CONFIG_PARSE_ENUM() and _ENUMV()
and makes the log level lower when a duplicated item is
specified to the settings parsed by the function defined by
DEFINE_CONFIG_PARSE_ENUMV().
We usually seperate case statements within a switch from each other by
empty lines. We also often add an empty line after multi-line function
prototypes, let's do so here too
Also, no trailing ; after }...
This corresponds nicely with the specifiers we already pass for
/var/lib, /var/cache, /run and so on.
This is particular useful to update the test-path service files to
operate without guessable files, thus allowing multiple parallel
test-path invocations to pass without issues (the idea is to set $TMPDIR
early on in the test to some private directory, and then only use the
new %T or %V specifier to refer to it).
When dealing with a large number of template instances, for example
when launching daemons per VRF, it is hard for operators to correlate
log lines to arguments.
Add a new with-unit mode which, if available, prefixes unit and user
unit names when displaying its log messages instead of the syslog
identifier. It will also use the full timestamp with timezones, like
the short-full mode.
This adds directories in /etc and /run to the search paths for OS
images. While it doesn't make much sense to actually place huge disk
images there, it's good enough for symlinks to those.
The main reason for supporting this is that this allows us to neatly
symlink portable image files located outside of the search path into the
search path when attaching them, so that attaching them also means they
are discoverable properly for all commands.
This new flag indicates whether the image object was found in the search
paths using the usual algorithm, or was instantiated by path.
This is useful for code that wants to know whether an image may be
referenced by its shortened name or must be specified by its full name.
Let's rework error handling a bit in image_find() and friends: when we
can't find an image, return -ENOENT rather than 0. That's better as
before we violated the usual rule in our codebase that return parameters
are initialized when the return value is >= 0 and otherwise not touched.
This also makes enumeration and validation a bit more strict: we'll only
accept ".raw" as suffix for regular files, and filter out this suffix
handling on directories/subvolumes, where it makes no sense.
We need to chop off the .raw suffix from the files we find before we can
test it against the hashmap. Hence do that.
And while we are at it, we can pass the pretty name into image_make(),
since we already have it properly formatted.
This distuingishes two different classes of images, one for the purpose
of npsawn-like containers, i.e. "machines", and one for portable
services.
This distinction is mostly about search paths. We look for machine
images in /var/lib/machines and for portable images in
/var/lib/portables.
When we look into a portable service image it might contain the unit
files in split-usr directories rather than merged-usr directories as on
the host. Hence, let#s add a flag that checking all dirs can be forced.
Most our other parsing functions do this, let's do this here too,
internally we accept that anyway. Also, the closely related
load_env_file() and load_env_file_pairs() also do this, so let's be
systematic.
We already have a flag for creating a new mount namespace for the child.
Let's add an extension to that: a new FORK_MOUNTNFS_SLAVE flag. When
used in combination will mark all mounts in the child namespace as
MS_SLAVE so that the child can freely mount or unmount stuff but it
won't leak into the parent.
We already do this kind of validation in nspawn when we operate on a
plain directory, let's also do this on raw images under the same
condition: that we are about too boot the image. Also, do this when we
are about to read OS metadata from it.
Otherwise querying the preset status of a unit to the user instance gives
incorrect results since in this case the scope used by the manager is
UNIT_FILE_USER.
This makes most header files easier to look at. Also Emacs gets really
slow when browsing through large sections of overly long prototypes,
which is much improved by this macro.
We should probably not do something similar with too many other cases,
as macros like this might help readability for some, but make it worse
for others. But I think given the complexity of this specific prototype
and how often we use it, it's worth doing.
This builds on the previous GENERIC_PARSER_ARGS macro work. I think in
general it is a better idea to declare macros that generate full C
statements instead of just parts of them, hence, let's introduce
CONFIG_PARSER_PROTOTYPE() which defines a full C function prototype,
instead of the pre-existing way of defining the C function prototype
manually, but then using GENERIC_PARSER_ARGS to define its arguments.
This doesn't drop GENERIC_PARSER_ARGS though, but renames it to
CONFIG_PARSER_ARGUMENTS, and changes the ConfigParserCallback function
type to use it. The new name follows more closely how the other symbols
in the header are named.
That way we can use it in nspawn.
Also, while we are at it, let's rename the call config_parse_rlimit(),
i.e. insert the "r", to clarify what kind of limit this is about.
This makes it behave the same whether there is a blank line or not at
the end of the file. This is also consistent with the behavior of the
shell on a shell script that ends on a trailing backslash at the last
line.
Added tests to test_config_parse(), which only pass if the corresponding
change to config_parse() is included.
This means that when those targets are built, all the sources are built again,
instead of reusing the work done to create libbasic.a and other convenience static
libraries. It would be nice to not do this, but there seems to be no support in
our toolchain for joining multiple static libraries into one. When linking
a static library, any -l arguments are simply ignored by ar/gcc-ar, and .a
libraries given as positional arguments are copied verbatim into the archive
so they objects in them cannot be accessed.
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2157629/linking-static-libraries-to-other-static-libraries
suggests either unzipping all the archives and putting them back togather,
or using a linker script. Unzipping and zipping back together seems ugly.
The other option is not very nice. The linker script language does not
allow "+" to appear in the filenames, and filenames that meson generates
use that, so files would have to be renamed before a linker script was used.
And we would have to generate the linker script on the fly. Either way, this
doesn't seem attractive. Since those static libraries are a niche use case,
it seems reasonable to just go with the easiest and safest solution and
recompile all the source files. Thanks to ccache, this is probably almost as
cheap as actually reusing the convenience .a libraries.
test-libsystemd-sym.c and test-libudev-sym.c compile fine with the generated
static libs, so it seems that they indeed provide all the symbols they should.
