There are no mmap_cache_get() users that actually deviate prot
from the JournalFile's f->prot.
So there's no point in making this a separate parameter to
mmap_cache_get(), nor is there any need to store it in
JournalFile's f->prot.
Instead just pass it to mmap_cache_add_fd() at MMapFileDescriptor
creation, storing it in there for the mmap() callers, which
already receive MMapFileDescriptor *.
For functions receiving both an MMapFileDescriptor * and prot,
the prot argument has been simply removed and call sites updated.
Formalizing this fd:prot binding at the public API also enables
discarding the prot check in window_matches(), which is a hot
function on long window lists, so a minor CPU efficiency gain
should be had there as seen with the past removal of the fd
check. Unnoticable for uncached journals, but maybe a little
runtime improvement when cached in specific circumstances.
window_matches_fd() has also been simplified to treat the
MMapFileDescrptor * as equivalent to its fd and prot.
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.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary.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.
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.
If requested, return the actual mapping size to the caller in
addition to the address.
journal_file_move_to_object() often performs two successive
mmap_cache_get() calls via journal_file_move_to(); one to get the
object header, then another to get the entire object when it's
larger than the header's size.
If mmap_cache_get() returned the actual mapping's size, it's
probable that the second mmap_cache_get() could be skipped when
the established mapping already encompassed the desired size.
This way we have a MMapFileDescriptor reference external to the cache,
and can supply the handle directly to mmap_cache_get(), eliminating
hashmap lookups entirely from the hot path.
According to its manual page, flags given to mkostemp(3) shouldn't include
O_RDWR, O_CREAT or O_EXCL flags as these are always included. Beyond
those, the only flag that all callers (except a few tests where it
probably doesn't matter) use is O_CLOEXEC, so set that unconditionally.
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.
The only user is sd_journal_enumerate_unique() and, as explained in
the previous commit (fed67c38e3 "journal: map objects to context set by
caller, not by actual object type"), the use of them there is now
superfluous. Let's remove them.
This reverts major parts of commits:
ae97089d49 journal: fix access to munmapped memory in
sd_journal_enumerate_unique
06cc69d44c sd-journal: fix sd_journal_enumerate_unique skipping values
Tested with an "--enable-debug" build and "journalctl --list-boots".
It gives the expected number of results. Additionally, if I then revert
the previous commit ("journal: map objects to context set by caller, not
to actual object type"), it crashes with SIGSEGV, as expected.
sd_journal_enumerate_unique will lock its mmap window to prevent it
from being released by calling mmap_cache_get with keep_always=true.
This call may return windows that are wider, but compatible with the
parameters provided to it.
This can result in a mismatch where the window to be released cannot
properly be selected, because we have more than one window matching the
parameters of mmap_cache_release. Therefore, introduce a release_cookie
to be used when releasing the window.

safe_close() automatically becomes a NOP when a negative fd is passed,
and returns -1 unconditionally. This makes it easy to write lines like
this:
fd = safe_close(fd);
Which will close an fd if it is open, and reset the fd variable
correctly.
By making use of this new scheme we can drop a > 200 lines of code that
was required to test for non-negative fds or to reset the closed fd
variable afterwards.
