This introduces {State,Cache,Log,Configuration}Directory= those are
similar to RuntimeDirectory=. They create the directories under
/var/lib, /var/cache/, /var/log, or /etc, respectively, with the mode
specified in {State,Cache,Log,Configuration}DirectoryMode=.
This also fixes#6391.
It's rather hard to parse the confirmation messages (enabled with
systemd.confirm_spawn=true) amongst the status messages and the kernel
ones (if enabled).
This patch gives the possibility to the user to redirect the confirmation
message to a different virtual console, either by giving its name or its path,
so those messages are separated from the other ones and easier to read.
In contrast to all other unit types device units when queued just track
external state, they cannot effect state changes on their own. Hence unless a
client or other job waits for them there's no reason to keep them in the job
queue. This adds a concept of GC'ing jobs of this type as soon as no client or
other job waits for them anymore.
To ensure this works correctly we need to track which clients actually
reference a job (i.e. which ones enqueued it). Unfortunately that's pretty
nasty to do for direct connections, as sd_bus_track doesn't work for
them. For now, work around this, by simply remembering in a boolean that a job
was requested by a direct connection, and reset it when we notice the direct
connection is gone. This means the GC logic works fine, except that jobs are
not immediately removed when direct connections disconnect.
In the longer term, a rework of the bus logic should fix this properly. For now
this should be good enough, as GC works for fine all cases except this one, and
thus is a clear improvement over the previous behaviour.
Fixes: #1921
This adds a new invocation ID concept to the service manager. The invocation ID
identifies each runtime cycle of a unit uniquely. A new randomized 128bit ID is
generated each time a unit moves from and inactive to an activating or active
state.
The primary usecase for this concept is to connect the runtime data PID 1
maintains about a service with the offline data the journal stores about it.
Previously we'd use the unit name plus start/stop times, which however is
highly racy since the journal will generally process log data after the service
already ended.
The "invocation ID" kinda matches the "boot ID" concept of the Linux kernel,
except that it applies to an individual unit instead of the whole system.
The invocation ID is passed to the activated processes as environment variable.
It is additionally stored as extended attribute on the cgroup of the unit. The
latter is used by journald to automatically retrieve it for each log logged
message and attach it to the log entry. The environment variable is very easily
accessible, even for unprivileged services. OTOH the extended attribute is only
accessible to privileged processes (this is because cgroupfs only supports the
"trusted." xattr namespace, not "user."). The environment variable may be
altered by services, the extended attribute may not be, hence is the better
choice for the journal.
Note that reading the invocation ID off the extended attribute from journald is
racy, similar to the way reading the unit name for a logging process is.
This patch adds APIs to read the invocation ID to sd-id128:
sd_id128_get_invocation() may be used in a similar fashion to
sd_id128_get_boot().
PID1's own logging is updated to always include the invocation ID when it logs
information about a unit.
A new bus call GetUnitByInvocationID() is added that allows retrieving a bus
path to a unit by its invocation ID. The bus path is built using the invocation
ID, thus providing a path for referring to a unit that is valid only for the
current runtime cycleof it.
Outlook for the future: should the kernel eventually allow passing of cgroup
information along AF_UNIX/SOCK_DGRAM messages via a unique cgroup id, then we
can alter the invocation ID to be generated as hash from that rather than
entirely randomly. This way we can derive the invocation race-freely from the
messages.
For some certification, it should not be possible to reboot the machine through ctrl-alt-delete. Currently we suggest our customers to mask the ctrl-alt-delete target, but that is obviously not enough.
Patching the keymaps to disable that is really not a way to go for them, because the settings need to be easily checked by some SCAP tools.
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.
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
On the unified hierarchy, blkio controller is renamed to io and the interface
is changed significantly.
* blkio.weight and blkio.weight_device are consolidated into io.weight which
uses the standardized weight range [1, 10000] with 100 as the default value.
* blkio.throttle.{read|write}_{bps|iops}_device are consolidated into io.max.
Expansion of throttling features is being worked on to support
work-conserving absolute limits (io.low and io.high).
* All stats are consolidated into io.stats.
This patchset adds support for the new interface. As the interface has been
revamped and new features are expected to be added, it seems best to treat it
as a separate controller rather than trying to expand the blkio settings
although we might add automatic translation if only blkio settings are
specified.
* io.weight handling is mostly identical to blkio.weight[_device] handling
except that the weight range is different.
* Both read and write bandwidth settings are consolidated into
CGroupIODeviceLimit which describes all limits applicable to the device.
This makes it less painful to add new limits.
* "max" can be used to specify the maximum limit which is equivalent to no
config for max limits and treated as such. If a given CGroupIODeviceLimit
doesn't contain any non-default configs, the config struct is discarded once
the no limit config is applied to cgroup.
* lookup_blkio_device() is renamed to lookup_block_device().

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 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.
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.
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.
As discussed at systemd.conf 2015 and on also raised on the ML:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-November/034880.html
This removes the two XyzOverridable= unit dependencies, that were
basically never used, and do not enhance user experience in any way.
Most folks looking for the functionality this provides probably opt for
the "ignore-dependencies" job mode, and that's probably a good idea.
Hence, let's simplify systemd's dependency engine and remove these two
dependency types (and their inverses).
The unit file parser and the dbus property parser will now redirect
the settings/properties to result in an equivalent non-overridable
dependency. In the case of the unit file parser we generate a warning,
to inform the user.
The dbus properties for this unit type stay available on the unit
objects, but they are now hidden from usual introspection and will
always return the empty list when queried.
This should provide enough compatibility for the few unit files that
actually ever made use of this.
Snapshots were never useful or used for anything. Many systemd
developers that I spoke to at systemd.conf2015, didn't even know they
existed, so it is fairly safe to assume that this type can be deleted
without harm.
The fundamental problem with snapshots is that the state of the system
is dynamic, devices come and go, users log in and out, timers fire...
and restoring all units to some state from the past would "undo"
those changes, which isn't really possible.
Tested by creating a snapshot, running the new binary, and checking
that the transition did not cause errors, and the snapshot is gone,
and snapshots cannot be created anymore.
New systemctl says:
Unknown operation snapshot.
Old systemctl says:
Failed to create snapshot: Support for snapshots has been removed.
IgnoreOnSnaphost settings are warned about and ignored:
Support for option IgnoreOnSnapshot= has been removed and it is ignored
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-November/034872.html
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.
When a systemd service running in a container exits with a non-zero
code, it can be useful to terminate the container immediately and get
the exit code back to the host, when systemd-nspawn returns. This was
not possible to do. This patch adds the following to make it possible:
- Add a read-only "ExitCode" property on PID 1's "Manager" bus object.
By default, it is 0 so the behaviour stays the same as previously.
- Add a method "SetExitCode" on the same object. The method fails when
called on baremetal: it is only allowed in containers or in user
session.
- Add support in systemctl to call "systemctl exit 42". It reuses the
existing code for user session.
- Add exit.target and systemd-exit.service to the system instance.
- Change main() to actually call systemd-shutdown to exit() with the
correct value.
- Add verb 'exit' in systemd-shutdown with parameter --exit-code
- Update systemctl manpage.
I used the following to test it:
| $ sudo rkt --debug --insecure-skip-verify run \
| --mds-register=false --local docker://busybox \
| --exec=/bin/chroot -- /proc/1/root \
| systemctl --force exit 42
| ...
| Container rkt-895a0cba-5c66-4fa5-831c-e3f8ddc5810d failed with error code 42.
| $ echo $?
| 42

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.

This adds support for the new "pids" cgroup controller of 4.3 kernels.
It allows accounting the number of tasks in a cgroup and enforcing
limits on it.
This adds two new setting TasksAccounting= and TasksMax= to each unit,
as well as a gloabl option DefaultTasksAccounting=.
This also updated "cgtop" to optionally make use of the new
kernel-provided accounting.
systemctl has been updated to show the number of tasks for each service
if it is available.
This patch also adds correct support for undoing memory limits for units
using a MemoryLimit=infinity syntax. We do the same for TasksMax= now
and hence keep things in sync here.
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.
Currently, PID1 installs an unfiltered NameOwnerChanged signal match, and
dispatches the signals itself. This does not scale, as right now, PID1
wakes up every time a bus client connects.
To fix this, install individual matches once they are requested by
unit_watch_bus_name(), and remove the watches again through their slot in
unit_unwatch_bus_name().
If the bus is not available during unit_watch_bus_name(), just store
name in the 'watch_bus' hashmap, and let bus_setup_api() do the installing
later.
It's primarily just a property of the Manager object after all, and we
try to refer to PID 1 as "manager" instead of "systemd", hence let's to
stick to this here too.
This changes log_unit_info() (and friends) to take a real Unit* object
insted of just a unit name as parameter. The call will now prefix all
logged messages with the unit name, thus allowing the unit name to be
dropped from the various passed romat strings, simplifying invocations
drastically, and unifying log output across messages. Also, UNIT= vs.
USER_UNIT= is now derived from the Manager object attached to the Unit
object, instead of getpid(). This has the benefit of correcting the
field for --test runs.
Also contains a couple of other logging improvements:
- Drops a couple of strerror() invocations in favour of using %m.
- Not only .mount units now warn if a symlinks exist for the mount
point already, .automount units do that too, now.
- A few invocations of log_struct() that didn't actually pass any
additional structured data have been replaced by simpler invocations
of log_unit_info() and friends.
- For structured data a new LOG_UNIT_MESSAGE() macro has been added,
that works like LOG_MESSAGE() but prefixes the message with the unit
name. Similar, there's now LOG_LINK_MESSAGE() and
LOG_NETDEV_MESSAGE().
- For structured data new LOG_UNIT_ID(), LOG_LINK_INTERFACE(),
LOG_NETDEV_INTERFACE() macros have been added that generate the
necessary per object fields. The old log_unit_struct() call has been
removed in favour of these new macros used in raw log_struct()
invocations. In addition to removing one more function call this
allows generated structured log messages that contain two object
fields, as necessary for example for network interfaces that are
joined into another network interface, and whose messages shall be
indexed by both.
- The LOG_ERRNO() macro has been removed, in favour of
log_struct_errno(). The latter has the benefit of ensuring that %m in
format strings is properly resolved to the specified error number.
- A number of logging messages have been converted to use
log_unit_info() instead of log_info()
- The client code in sysv-generator no longer #includes core code from
src/core/.
- log_unit_full_errno() has been removed, log_unit_full() instead takes
an errno now, too.
- log_unit_info(), log_link_info(), log_netdev_info() and friends, now
avoid double evaluation of their parameters
By notifying the clients when this property is changed it's possible to
allow "system health monitor" tools to get transitions like
running<->degraded. This is an alternative to send changes on the
SystemState property since the latter is more difficult to derive.
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.
Sometimes it is necessary to stop a generator from running. Either
because of a bug, or for testing, or some other reason. The only way
to do that would be to rename or chmod the generator binary, which is
inconvenient and does not survive upgrades. Allow masking and
overriding generators similarly to units and other configuration
files.
For the systemd instance, masking would be more common, rather than
overriding generators. For the user instances, it may also be useful
for users to have generators in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME to augment or
override system-wide generators.
Directories are searched according to the usual scheme (/usr/lib,
/usr/local/lib, /run, /etc), and files with the same name in higher
priority directories override files with the same name in lower
priority directories. Empty files and links to /dev/null mask a given
name.

Parsing the mount table with libmount races against the mount command,
which will handle the actual mounting before updating utab. This means
the poll event on /proc/self/mountinfo can kick of a reparse in systemd
before the utab information is available.
This change adds in an additional event source using inotify to watch
for changes to utab. It only watches for IN_MOVED_TO events, matching
libmount behavior of always overwriting this file using rename(2).
This does add a second pass through the mount table parsing when utab is
updated.
