Since cryptsetup 2.3.0 a new API to verify dm-verity volumes by a
pkcs7 signature, with the public key in the kernel keyring,
is available. Use it if libcryptsetup supports it.

This gets rid of most but not occasions of these loaded terms:
1. scsi_id and friends are something that is supposed to be removed from
our tree (see #7594)
2. The test suite defines an API used by the ubuntu CI. We can remove
this too later, but this needs to be done in sync with the ubuntu CI.
3. In some cases the terms are part of APIs we call or where we expose
concepts the kernel names the way it names them. (In particular all
remaining uses of the word "slave" in our codebase are like this,
it's used by the POSIX PTY layer, by the network subsystem, the mount
API and the block device subsystem). Getting rid of the term in these
contexts would mean doing some major fixes of the kernel ABI first.
Regarding the replacements: when whitelist/blacklist is used as noun we
replace with with allow list/deny list, and when used as verb with
allow-list/deny-list.
Since #15533 we didn't create the mount point for selinuxfs anymore.
Before it we created it twice because we mount selinuxfs twice: once the
superblock, and once we remount its bind mound read-only. The second
mkdir would mean we'd chown() the host version of selinuxfs (since
there's only one selinuxfs superblock kernel-wide).
The right time to create mount point point is once: before we mount the
selinuxfs. But not a second time for the remount.
Fixes: #16032
Let's make sure $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for the user instance and /run for the
system instance is always organized the same way: the "inaccessible"
device nodes should be placed in a subdir of either called "systemd" and
a subdir of that called "inaccessible".
This way we can emphasize the common behaviour, and only differ where
really necessary.
Follow-up for #13823
dm-verity support in dissect-image at the moment is restricted to GPT
volumes.
If the image a single-filesystem type without a partition table (eg: squashfs)
and a roothash/verity file are passed, set the verity flag and mark as
read-only.
This is a follow-up for 9f83091e3c.
Instead of reading the mtime off the configuration files after reading,
let's do so before reading, but with the fd we read the data from. This
is not only cleaner (as it allows us to save one stat()), but also has
the benefit that we'll detect changes that happen while we read the
files.
This also reworks unit file drop-ins to use the common code for
determining drop-in mtime, instead of reading system clock for that.
Limit size of various tmpfs mounts to 10% of RAM, except volatile root and /var
to 25%. Another exception is made for /dev (also /devs for PrivateDevices) and
/sys/fs/cgroup since no (or very few) regular files are expected to be used.
In addition, since directories, symbolic links, device specials and xattrs are
not counted towards the size= limit, number of inodes is also limited
correspondingly: 4MB size translates to 1k of inodes (assuming 4k each), 10% of
RAM (using 16GB of RAM as baseline) translates to 400k and 25% to 1M inodes.
Because nr_inodes option can't use ratios like size option, there's an
unfortunate side effect that with small memory systems the limit may be on the
too large side. Also, on an extremely small device with only 256MB of RAM, 10%
of RAM for /run may not be enough for re-exec of PID1 because 16MB of free
space is required.
We always need to make them unions with a "struct cmsghdr" in them, so
that things properly aligned. Otherwise we might end up at an unaligned
address and the counting goes all wrong, possibly making the kernel
refuse our buffers.
Also, let's make sure we initialize the control buffers to zero when
sending, but leave them uninitialized when reading.
Both the alignment and the initialization thing is mentioned in the
cmsg(3) man page.
If we're using a set with _put_strdup(), most of the time we want to use
string hash ops on the set, and free the strings when done. This defines
the appropriate a new string_hash_ops_free structure to automatically free
the keys when removing the set, and makes set_put_strdup() and set_put_strdupv()
instantiate the set with those hash ops.
hashmap_put_strdup() was already doing something similar.
(It is OK to instantiate the set earlier, possibly with a different hash ops
structure. set_put_strdup() will then use the existing set. It is also OK
to call set_free_free() instead of set_free() on a set with
string_hash_ops_free, the effect is the same, we're just overriding the
override of the cleanup function.)
No functional change intended.
Consider such configuration:
$ systemd-nspawn --read-only --timezone=copy --resolv-conf=copy-host \
--overlay="+/etc::/etc" <...>
Assuming one wants `/` to be read-only, DNS and `/etc/localtime` to
work. One way to do it is to create an overlay filesystem in `/etc/`.
However, systemd-nspawn tries to create `/etc/resolv.conf` and
`/etc/localtime` before mounting the custom paths, while `/` (and, by
extension, `/etc`) is read-only. Thus it fails to create those files.
Mounting custom paths before modifying anything in `/etc/` makes this
possible.
Full example:
```
$ debootstrap buster /var/lib/machines/t1 http://deb.debian.org/debian
$ systemd-nspawn --private-users=false --timezone=copy --resolv-conf=copy-host --read-only --tmpfs=/var --tmpfs=/run --overlay="+/etc::/etc" -D /var/lib/machines/t1 ping -c 1 example.com
Spawning container t1 on /var/lib/machines/t1.
Press ^] three times within 1s to kill container.
ping: example.com: Temporary failure in name resolution
Container t1 failed with error code 130.
```
With the patch:
```
$ sudo ./build/systemd-nspawn --private-users=false --timezone=copy --resolv-conf=copy-host --read-only --tmpfs=/var --tmpfs=/run --overlay="+/etc::/etc" -D /var/lib/machines/t1 ping -qc 1 example.com
Spawning container t1 on /var/lib/machines/t1.
Press ^] three times within 1s to kill container.

```
Let's be extra careful whenever we return from recvmsg() and see
MSG_CTRUNC set. This generally means we ran into a programming error, as
we didn't size the control buffer large enough. It's an error condition
we should at least log about, or propagate up. Hence do that.
This is particularly important when receiving fds, since for those the
control data can be of any size. In particular on stream sockets that's
nasty, because if we miss an fd because of control data truncation we
cannot recover, we might not even realize that we are one off.
(Also, when failing early, if there's any chance the socket might be
AF_UNIX let's close all received fds, all the time. We got this right
most of the time, but there were a few cases missing. God, UNIX is hard
to use)
Let's add flavours for copying stub/uplink resolv.conf versions.
Let's add a more brutal "replace" mode, where we'll replace any existing
destination file.
Let's also change what "auto" means: instead of copying the static file,
let's use the stub file, so that DNS search info is copied over.
Fixes: #15340
Some fdopendir() calls remain where safe_close() is manually
performed, those could be simplified as well by converting to
use the _cleanup_close_ machinery, but makes things less trivial
to review so left for a future cleanup.
We don't need a seperate output parameter that is of type int. glibc() says
that the type is "unsigned", but the kernel thinks it's "int". And the
"alternative names" interface also uses ints. So let's standarize on ints,
since it's clearly not realisitic to have interface numbers in the upper half
of unsigned int range.
