We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
This extends the shutdownd interface to expose schedule shutdown
information in /run/systemd/shutdown/schedule.
This also cleans up the shutdownd protocol and documents it in a header
file sd-shutdown.h.
This is supposed to be used by client code that wants to control and
monitor scheduled shutdown.
This logic can be turned off by defining SD_JOURNAL_SUPPRESS_LOCATION
before including sd-journal.h.
This also saves/restores errno in all logging functions, in order to be
useful as logging calls without side-effects.
This also adds a couple of __unlikely__ around the early checks in the
logging calls, in order to minimize the runtime impact.
This patch adds WatchdogTimestamp[Monotonic] to the systemd service
D-Bus API. The timestamp is updated to the current time when the
service calls 'sd_nofity("WATCHDOG=1\n")'.
Using a timestamp instead of an 'alive' flag has two advantages:
1. No timeout is needed to define when a service is no longer alive.
This simplifies both configuration (no timeout value) and
implementation (no timeout event).
2. It is more robust. A 'dead' service might not be detected should
systemd 'forget' to reset an 'alive' flag. It is much less likely
to get a valid new timestamp if a service died.
