It's an auxiliary function to the UnitInfo structures, and very generic.
Let's hence move it over to the other code operating with UnitInfo, even
if it's not used by code outside of systemctl (yet).
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary.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.
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.
Previously we'd have generally useful sd-bus utilities in bust-util.h,
intermixed with code that is specifically for writing clients for PID 1,
wrapping job and unit handling. Let's split the latter out and move it into
bus-unit-util.c, to make the sources a bit short and easier to grok.
This adds a new GetProcesses() bus call to the Unit object which returns an
array consisting of all PIDs, their process names, as well as their full cgroup
paths. This is then used by "systemctl status" to show the per-unit process
tree.
This has the benefit that the client-side no longer needs to access the
cgroupfs directly to show the process tree of a unit. Instead, it now uses this
new API, which means it also works if -H or -M are used correctly, as the
information from the specific host is used, and not the one from the local
system.
