This undoes 531ac2b234. I acked that patch without looking at the code
carefully enough. There are two problems:
- we want to process the fds anyway
- in principle empty notification messages are valid, and we should
process them as usual, including logging using log_unit_debug().
If manager_dispatch_notify_fd() fails and returns an error then the handling of
service notifications will be disabled entirely leading to a compromised system.
For example pid1 won't be able to receive the WATCHDOG messages anymore and
will kill all services supposed to send such messages.
This adds two (privileged) bus calls Ref() and Unref() to the Unit interface.
The two calls may be used by clients to pin a unit into memory, so that various
runtime properties aren't flushed out by the automatic GC. This is necessary
to permit clients to race-freely acquire runtime results (such as process exit
status/code or accumulated CPU time) on successful service termination.
Ref() and Unref() are fully recursive, hence act like the usual reference
counting concept in C. Taking a reference is a privileged operation, as this
allows pinning units into memory which consumes resources.
Transient units may also gain a reference at the time of creation, via the new
AddRef property (that is only defined for transient units at the time of
creation).
This adds the boolean RemoveIPC= setting to service, socket, mount and swap
units (i.e. all unit types that may invoke processes). if turned on, and the
unit's user/group is not root, all IPC objects of the user/group are removed
when the service is shut down. The life-cycle of the IPC objects is hence bound
to the unit life-cycle.
This is particularly relevant for units with dynamic users, as it is essential
that no objects owned by the dynamic users survive the service exiting. In
fact, this patch adds code to imply RemoveIPC= if DynamicUser= is set.
In order to communicate the UID/GID of an executed process back to PID 1 this
adds a new "user lookup" socket pair, that is inherited into the forked
processes, and closed before the exec(). This is needed since we cannot do NSS
from PID 1 due to deadlock risks, However need to know the used UID/GID in
order to clean up IPC owned by it if the unit shuts down.
Currently, systemd uses either the legacy hierarchies or the unified hierarchy.
When the legacy hierarchies are used, systemd uses a named legacy hierarchy
mounted on /sys/fs/cgroup/systemd without any kernel controllers for process
management. Due to the shortcomings in the legacy hierarchy, this involves a
lot of workarounds and complexities.
Because the unified hierarchy can be mounted and used in parallel to legacy
hierarchies, there's no reason for systemd to use a legacy hierarchy for
management even if the kernel resource controllers need to be mounted on legacy
hierarchies. It can simply mount the unified hierarchy under
/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd and use it without affecting other legacy hierarchies.
This disables a significant amount of fragile workaround logics and would allow
using features which depend on the unified hierarchy membership such bpf cgroup
v2 membership test. In time, this would also allow deleting the said
complexities.
This patch updates systemd so that it prefers the unified hierarchy for the
systemd cgroup controller hierarchy when legacy hierarchies are used for kernel
resource controllers.
* cg_unified(@controller) is introduced which tests whether the specific
controller in on unified hierarchy and used to choose the unified hierarchy
code path for process and service management when available. Kernel
controller specific operations remain gated by cg_all_unified().
* "systemd.legacy_systemd_cgroup_controller" kernel argument can be used to
force the use of legacy hierarchy for systemd cgroup controller.
* nspawn: By default nspawn uses the same hierarchies as the host. If
UNIFIED_CGROUP_HIERARCHY is set to 1, unified hierarchy is used for all. If
0, legacy for all.
* nspawn: arg_unified_cgroup_hierarchy is made an enum and now encodes one of
three options - legacy, only systemd controller on unified, and unified. The
value is passed into mount setup functions and controls cgroup configuration.
* nspawn: Interpretation of SYSTEMD_CGROUP_CONTROLLER to the actual mount
option is moved to mount_legacy_cgroup_hierarchy() so that it can take an
appropriate action depending on the configuration of the host.
v2: - CGroupUnified enum replaces open coded integer values to indicate the
cgroup operation mode.
- Various style updates.
v3: Fixed a bug in detect_unified_cgroup_hierarchy() introduced during v2.
v4: Restored legacy container on unified host support and fixed another bug in
detect_unified_cgroup_hierarchy().
A following patch will update cgroup handling so that the systemd controller
(/sys/fs/cgroup/systemd) can use the unified hierarchy even if the kernel
resource controllers are on the legacy hierarchies. This would require
distinguishing whether all controllers are on cgroup v2 or only the systemd
controller is. In preparation, this patch renames cg_unified() to
cg_all_unified().
This patch doesn't cause any functional changes.
This adds a new boolean setting DynamicUser= to service files. If set, a new
user will be allocated dynamically when the unit is started, and released when
it is stopped. The user ID is allocated from the range 61184..65519. The user
will not be added to /etc/passwd (but an NSS module to be added later should
make it show up in getent passwd).
For now, care should be taken that the service writes no files to disk, since
this might result in files owned by UIDs that might get assigned dynamically to
a different service later on. Later patches will tighten sandboxing in order to
ensure that this cannot happen, except for a few selected directories.
A simple way to test this is:
systemd-run -p DynamicUser=1 /bin/sleep 99999
As it turns out 512 is max number of tasks per service is hit by too many
applications, hence let's bump it a bit, and make it relative to the system's
maximum number of PIDs. With this change the new default is 15%. At the
kernel's default pids_max value of 32768 this translates to 4915. At machined's
default TasksMax= setting of 16384 this translates to 2457.
Why 15%? Because it sounds like a round number and is close enough to 4096
which I was going for, i.e. an eight-fold increase over the old 512
Summary:
| on the host | in a container
old default | 512 | 512
new default | 4915 | 2457
During stop when service has one "regular" pid one main pid and one
control pid and the sighld for the regular one is processed first the
unit_tidy_watch_pids will skip the main and control pid and does not
remove them from u->pids(). But then we skip the sigchld event because we
already did one in the iteration and there are two pids in u->pids.
v2: Use general unit_main_pid() and unit_control_pid() instead of
reaching directly to service structure.
By default, each iteration of manager_dispatch_sigchld() results in a unit level
sigchld event being invoked. For scope units, this results in a scope_sigchld_event()
which can seemingly stall for workloads that have a large number of PIDs within the
scope. The stall exhibits itself as a SIG_0 being initiated for each u->pids entry
as a result of pid_is_unwaited().
v2:
This patch resolves this condition by only paying to cost of a sigchld in the underlying
scope unit once per sigchld iteration. A new "sigchldgen" member resides within the
Unit struct. The Manager is incremented via the sd event loop, accessed via
sd_event_get_iteration, and the Unit member is set to the same value as the manager each
time that a sigchld event is invoked. If the Manager iteration value and Unit member
match, the sigchld event is not invoked for that iteration.
Delete the dbus1 generator and some critical wiring. This prevents
kdbus from being loaded or detected. As such, it will never be used,
even if the user still has a useful kdbus module loaded on their system.
Sort of fixes#3480. Not really, but it's better than the current state.
When unit is marked as UNSURE, we are trying to find if it state was
changed over and over again. So lets not go through the UNSURE states
again. Also when we find a GOOD unit lets propagate the GOOD state to
all units that this unit reference.
This is a problem on machines with a lot of initscripts with different
starting priority, since those units will reference each other and the
original algorithm might get to n! complexity.
Thanks HATAYAMA Daisuke for the expand_good_state code.
We currently generate log message about unit being started even when
unit was started already and job didn't do anything. This is because job
was requested explicitly and hence became anchor job of the transaction
thus we could not eliminate it. That is fine but, let's not pollute
journal with useless log messages.

Fixes#1723
The macro determines the right length of a AF_UNIX "struct sockaddr_un" to pass to
connect() or bind(). It automatically figures out if the socket refers to an
abstract namespace socket, or a socket in the file system, and properly handles
the full length of the path field.
This macro is not only safer, but also simpler to use, than the usual
offsetof() + strlen() logic.
dbus-daemon currently uses a backlog of 30 on its D-bus system bus socket. On
overloaded systems this means that only 30 connections may be queued without
dbus-daemon processing them before further connection attempts fail. Our
cgroups-agent binary so far used D-Bus for its messaging, and hitting this
limit hence may result in us losing cgroup empty messages.
This patch adds a seperate cgroup agent socket of type AF_UNIX/SOCK_DGRAM.
Since sockets of these types need no connection set up, no listen() backlog
applies. Our cgroup-agent binary will hence simply block as long as it can't
enqueue its datagram message, so that we won't lose cgroup empty messages as
likely anymore.
This also rearranges the ordering of the processing of SIGCHLD signals, service
notification messages (sd_notify()...) and the two types of cgroup
notifications (inotify for the unified hierarchy support, and agent for the
classic hierarchy support). We now always process events for these in the
following order:
1. service notification messages (SD_EVENT_PRIORITY_NORMAL-7)
2. SIGCHLD signals (SD_EVENT_PRIORITY_NORMAL-6)
3. cgroup inotify and cgroup agent (SD_EVENT_PRIORITY_NORMAL-5)
This is because when receiving SIGCHLD we invalidate PID information, which we
need to process the service notification messages which are bound to PIDs.
Hence the order between the first two items. And we want to process SIGCHLD
metadata to detect whether a service is gone, before using cgroup
notifications, to decide when a service is gone, since the former carries more
useful metadata.

This moves the O_TMPFILE handling from the coredumping code into common library
code, and generalizes it as open_tmpfile_linkable() + link_tmpfile(). The
existing open_tmpfile() function (which creates an unlinked temporary file that
cannot be linked into the fs) is renamed to open_tmpfile_unlinkable(), to make
the distinction clear. Thus, code may now choose between:
a) open_tmpfile_linkable() + link_tmpfile()
b) open_tmpfile_unlinkable()
Depending on whether they want a file that may be linked back into the fs later
on or not.
In a later commit we should probably convert fopen_temporary() to make use of
open_tmpfile_linkable().
Followup for: #3065
The SysV compat code checks whether there's a native unit file before looking
for a SysV init script. Since the newest rework generated units will show up in
the unit path, and hence the checks ended up assuming that there always was a
native unit file for each init script: the generated one.
With this change the generated unit file directory is suppressed from the
search path when this check is done, to avoid the confusion.
This is too confusing, as this funciton returns the paths to the generator
binaries, while usually when we refer to the just the "generator path" we mean
the generated unit files. Let's clean this up.
Previously, transient units were created below the normal runtime directory
/run/systemd/system. With this change they are created in a special transient
directory /run/systemd/transient, which only contains data for transient units.
This clarifies the life-cycle of transient units, and makes clear they are
distinct from user-provided runtime units. In particular, users may now
extend transient units via /run/systemd/system, without systemd interfering
with the life-cycle of these files.
This change also adds code so that when a transient unit exits only the
drop-ins in this new directory are removed, but nothing else.
Fixes: #2139
This replaces the old function call manager_is_reloading_or_reexecuting() which
was used only at very few places. Use the new macro wherever we check whether
we are reloading. This should hopefully make things a bit more readable, given
the nature of Manager:n_reloading being a counter.
Previously, we had two enums ManagerRunningAs and UnitFileScope, that were
mostly identical and converted from one to the other all the time. The latter
had one more value UNIT_FILE_GLOBAL however.
Let's simplify things, and remove ManagerRunningAs and replace it by
UnitFileScope everywhere, thus making the translation unnecessary. Introduce
two new macros MANAGER_IS_SYSTEM() and MANAGER_IS_USER() to simplify checking
if we are running in one or the user context.
A long time ago – when generators where first introduced – the directories for
them were randomly created via mkdtemp(). This was changed later so that they
use fixed name directories now. Let's make use of this, and add the genrator
dirs to the LookupPaths structure and into the unit file search path maintained
in it. This has the benefit that the generator dirs are now normal part of the
search path for all tools, and thus are shown in "systemctl list-unit-files"
too.
After receiving SIGCHLD, one of the ways manager_dispatch_sigchld() maps the
now zombie $PID to its unit is through manager_get_unit_by_pid_cgroup() which
reads /proc/$PID/cgroup and looks up the unit associated with the cgroup path.
On non-unified cgroup hierarchies, a process is immediately migrated to the
root cgroup on death and the cgroup lookup would always have returned the unit
associated with it, making it rather pointless but safe. On unified hierarchy,
a zombie remains associated with the cgroup that it was associated with at the
time of death and thus manager_get_unit_by_pid_cgroup() will look up the unit
properly.
However, by the time manager_dispatch_sigchld() is running, the original cgroup
may have become empty and it and its associated unit might already have been
removed. If the cgroup path doesn't yield a match, manager_dispatch_sigchld()
keeps pruning the leaf component. This means that the function may return a
slice unit for a pid and as a slice doesn't have ->sigchld_event() handler,
calling invoke_sigchld_event() on it causes a segfault.
This patch updates invoke_sigchld_event() so that it skips calling if the
handler is not set.
Throughout the tree there's spurious use of spaces separating ++ and --
operators from their respective operands. Make ++ and -- operator
consistent with the majority of existing uses; discard the spaces.
Support for net_cls.class_id through the NetClass= configuration directive
has been added in v227 in preparation for a per-unit packet filter mechanism.
However, it turns out the kernel people have decided to deprecate the net_cls
and net_prio controllers in v2. Tejun provides a comprehensive justification
for this in his commit, which has landed during the merge window for kernel
v4.5:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=bd1060a1d671
As we're aiming for full support for the v2 cgroup hierarchy, we can no
longer support this feature. Userspace tool such as nftables are moving over
to setting rules that are specific to the full cgroup path of a task, which
obsoletes these controllers anyway.
This commit removes support for tweaking details in the net_cls controller,
but keeps the NetClass= directive around for legacy compatibility reasons.
When we determine the current system state we check whether units like emergency.target are running or a job that
results in them being run is queued. However, this is not the case for JOB_TRY_RESTART, since that's a NOP if the unit
has not been running before. Hence, don't bother with checking for that job type.

When we are running in test mode, we don't expect any signals.
In fact ^C should end the program. This also avoids permission
issues when running systemd-analyze verify.
When the daemon reloads, it doesn not actually give up its DBus connection,
as wrongly stated in an earlier commit. However, even though the bus
connection stays open, the daemon flushes out all its internal state.
Hence, if there is a NameOwnerChanged signal after the flush and before the
deserialization, it cannot be matched against any pending unit.
To fix this, rename bus_list_names() to manager_sync_bus_names() and call
it explicitly at the end of the daemon reload operation.
Output the same message when a request to change the log level is
received over dbus and through a signal. From the user point of view
those two operations are very similar and it's easy to think that the
dbus operation didn't work when the expected message is not emitted.
Also "downgrade" the message level to info, since this is a normal
user initiated action.
This way we can only print the debug message when the status actually
changes. We also means we don't print anything when running in --user
mode, where status output is always disabled.
GLIB has recently started to officially support the gcc cleanup
attribute in its public API, hence let's do the same for our APIs.
With this patch we'll define an xyz_unrefp() call for each public
xyz_unref() call, to make it easy to use inside a
__attribute__((cleanup())) expression. Then, all code is ported over to
make use of this.
The new calls are also documented in the man pages, with examples how to
use them (well, I only added docs where the _unref() call itself already
had docs, and the examples, only cover sd_bus_unrefp() and
sd_event_unrefp()).
This also renames sd_lldp_free() to sd_lldp_unref(), since that's how we
tend to call our destructors these days.
Note that this defines no public macro that wraps gcc's attribute and
makes it easier to use. While I think it's our duty in the library to
make our stuff easy to use, I figure it's not our duty to make gcc's own
features easy to use on its own. Most likely, client code which wants to
make use of this should define its own:
#define _cleanup_(function) __attribute__((cleanup(function)))
Or similar, to make the gcc feature easier to use.
Making this logic public has the benefit that we can remove three header
files whose only purpose was to define these functions internally.
See #2008.
Now that we don't have RequiresOverridable= and RequisiteOverridable=
dependencies anymore, we can get rid of tracking the "override" boolean
for jobs in the job engine, as it serves no purpose anymore.
While we are at it, fix some error messages we print when invoking
functions that take the override parameter.
We can't handle errors of thisc all sanely anyway, and we never actually
return any errors from the unit type that implements the call. Hence,
let's make this void, in order to simplify things.
We cannot handle enumeration failures in a sensible way, hence let's try
hard to continue without making such failures fatal, and log about it
with precise error messages.
Don't simply continue after sleeping, it potentially puts us in a state
of spinning doing nothing slowly, if the ratelimit_test() keeps
detecting the need for limiting.
Observed in vms after the host had been suspended for a while, on resume
systemd entered a loop of making zero progress spamming the console
with:
[431942.850090] systemd[1]: Looping too fast. Throttling execution a
little.
I see no reason to have a continue here, the intention should be to
throttle execution, not circumvent it altogether.
Let's make sure we don't start blocking on sd_notify() earlier than
necessary, let's bump the socket buffer sizes to 8M.
We already do something similar for our logging socket buffers, hence
apply a similar bump here.
Currently, we dispatch NOTIFY messages in a tight loop. Regardless how
much data is incoming, we always dispatch everything that is queued.
This, however, completely breaks priority event-handling of sd-event.
When dispatching one NOTIFY event, another completely different event
might fire, or might be queued by the NOTIFY handling. However, this
event will not get dispatched until all other further NOTIFY messages are
handled. Those might even arrive _after_ the other event fired, and as
such completely break priority ordering of sd-event (which several code
paths rely on).
Break this by never dispatching multiple messages. Just return after each
message that was read and let sd-event handle everything else.
(The patch looks scarier that it is. It basically just drops the for(;;)
loop and re-indents the loop-content.)
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.
This adds support for naming file descriptors passed using socket
activation. The names are passed in a new $LISTEN_FDNAMES= environment
variable, that matches the existign $LISTEN_FDS= one and contains a
colon-separated list of names.
This also adds support for naming fds submitted to the per-service fd
store using FDNAME= in the sd_notify() message.
This also adds a new FileDescriptorName= setting for socket unit files
to set the name for fds created by socket units.
This also adds a new call sd_listen_fds_with_names(), that is similar to
sd_listen_fds(), but also returns the names of the fds.
systemd-activate gained the new --fdname= switch to specify a name for
testing socket activation.
This is based on #1247 by Maciej Wereski.
Fixes#1247.
Let's underline the header line of the table shown by cgtop, how it is
customary for tables. In order to do this, let's introduce new ANSI
underline macros, and clean up the existing ones as side effect.
Add a new config directive called NetClass= to CGroup enabled units.
Allowed values are positive numbers for fix assignments and "auto" for
picking a free value automatically, for which we need to keep track of
dynamically assigned net class IDs of units. Introduce a hash table for
this, and also record the last ID that was given out, so the allocator
can start its search for the next 'hole' from there. This could
eventually be optimized with something like an irb.
The class IDs up to 65536 are considered reserved and won't be
assigned automatically by systemd. This barrier can be made a config
directive in the future.
Values set in unit files are stored in the CGroupContext of the
unit and considered read-only. The actually assigned number (which
may have been chosen dynamically) is stored in the unit itself and
is guaranteed to remain stable as long as the unit is active.
In the CGroup controller, set the configured CGroup net class to
net_cls.classid. Multiple unit may share the same net class ID,
and those which do are linked together.
The current implementation directly monitor /proc/self/mountinfo and
/run/mount/utab files. It's really not optimal because utab file is
private libmount stuff without any official guaranteed semantic.
The libmount since v2.26 provides API to monitor mount kernel &
userspace changes and since v2.27 the monitor is usable for
non-root users too.
This patch replaces the current implementation with libmount based
solution.

Let's make sure that we follow the same codepaths when adjusting a
cgroup property via the dbus SetProperty() call, and when we execute the
StartupCPUShares= effect.
Introduce a proper enum, and don't pass around string ids anymore. This
simplifies things quite a bit, and makes virtualization detection more
similar to architecture detection.
Let's move the actual cgroup part of it into a new separate function
manager_get_unit_by_pid_cgroup(), and then make
manager_get_unit_by_pid() just a wrapper that also checks the two pid
hashmaps.
Then, let's make sure the various calls that want to deliver events to
the owners of a PID check both hashmaps and the cgroup and deliver the
event to *each* of them. OTOH make sure bus calls like GetUnitByPID()
continue to check the PID hashmaps first and the cgroup only as
fallback.
This adds a new PID_TO_PTR() macro, plus PTR_TO_PID() and makes use of
it wherever we maintain processes in a hash table. Previously we
sometimes used LONG_TO_PTR() and other times ULONG_TO_PTR() for that,
hence let's make this more explicit and clean up things.
This patch set adds full support the new unified cgroup hierarchy logic
of modern kernels.
A new kernel command line option "systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1" is
added. If specified the unified hierarchy is mounted to /sys/fs/cgroup
instead of a tmpfs. No further hierarchies are mounted. The kernel
command line option defaults to off. We can turn it on by default as
soon as the kernel's APIs regarding this are stabilized (but even then
downstream distros might want to turn this off, as this will break any
tools that access cgroupfs directly).
It is possibly to choose for each boot individually whether the unified
or the legacy hierarchy is used. nspawn will by default provide the
legacy hierarchy to containers if the host is using it, and the unified
otherwise. However it is possible to run containers with the unified
hierarchy on a legacy host and vice versa, by setting the
$UNIFIED_CGROUP_HIERARCHY environment variable for nspawn to 1 or 0,
respectively.
The unified hierarchy provides reliable cgroup empty notifications for
the first time, via inotify. To make use of this we maintain one
manager-wide inotify fd, and each cgroup to it.
This patch also removes cg_delete() which is unused now.
On kernel 4.2 only the "memory" controller is compatible with the
unified hierarchy, hence that's the only controller systemd exposes when
booted in unified heirarchy mode.
This introduces a new enum for enumerating supported controllers, plus a
related enum for the mask bits mapping to it. The core is changed to
make use of this everywhere.
This moves PID 1 into a new "init.scope" implicit scope unit in the root
slice. This is necessary since on the unified hierarchy cgroups may
either contain subgroups or processes but not both. PID 1 hence has to
move out of the root cgroup (strictly speaking the root cgroup is the
only one where processes and subgroups are still allowed, but in order
to support containers nicey, we move PID 1 into the new scope in all
cases.) This new unit is also used on legacy hierarchy setups. It's
actually pretty useful on all systems, as it can then be used to filter
journal messages coming from PID 1, and so on.
The root slice ("-.slice") is now implicitly created and started (and
does not require a unit file on disk anymore), since
that's where "init.scope" is located and the slice needs to be started
before the scope can.
To check whether we are in unified or legacy hierarchy mode we use
statfs() on /sys/fs/cgroup. If the .f_type field reports tmpfs we are in
legacy mode, if it reports cgroupfs we are in unified mode.
This patch set carefuly makes sure that cgls and cgtop continue to work
as desired.
When invoking nspawn as a service it will implicitly create two
subcgroups in the cgroup it is using, one to move the nspawn process
into, the other to move the actual container processes into. This is
done because of the requirement that cgroups may either contain
processes or other subgroups.
