./configure --enable/disable-kdbus can be used to set the default
behavior regarding kdbus.
If no kdbus kernel support is available, dbus-dameon will be used.
With --enable-kdbus, the kernel command line option "kdbus=0" can
be used to disable kdbus.
With --disable-kdbus, the kernel command line option "kdbus=1" is
required to enable kdbus support.
Unfortunately, gcc keeps warning about those even when we use an
explicit (void) cast to indicate we are not interested in the result.
LLVM's clang does not have that issue and works fine with the casts.
GCC bug being tracked at:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=66425
Until that GCC bug is fixed (and the version with the fix is in
many/most distributions) or we switch to LLVM as the default compiler,
it looks like we'll have to disable this warning by default...
Tested by building files known to present warnings about unused results
without the suppression, confirmed that the warnings were no longer
present with this patch applied.
This partially reverts commit 00c11bc53a ("build-sys: don't suppress irrelevant warnings").
Make the build sys error out on missing function prototypes, missing
variable declarations, implicit function declarations or forgotten return
statements.
None of these conditions are acceptable, and by making them hard errors, the
build bots can detect them earlier.
This way, development builds will not rely on gc-sections to
paper over cyclic link dependencies. Newly introduced broken
link requirements will immediatley fail.
Since we introduced AX_NORMALIZE_PATH, using --with-rootprefix=/ does
produce an empty string, but using --with-rootprefix= (empty) now
produces "." instead which is wrong.
Work around it until we can find a better solution for AX_NORMALIZE_PATH
upstream at autoconf-archive.
Bug: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/54
Strip trailing slashes from options such as --with-rootprefix, so that building
with rootprefix="/" results in paths like "/lib" instead of "//lib".
Also handle paths such as "/usr/" gracefully.
Use m4/ax_normalize_path.m4 from the autoconf-archive project, which is now
included in our tree as per usual practices in using autoconf-archive macros.
Tested with the following configure options:
./configure \
--with-rootprefix=/ \
--with-rootlibdir=/lib64/ \
--prefix=/usr/ \
--libdir=/lib/ \
--with-bashcompletiondir=/bash-completion/completions/
(The "prefix" and "libdir" are already automatically normalized by Autoconf,
this command is testing the others.)
Compared the config.log and resulting trees (in particular man pages) to
confirm double slashes were not present in the latter.
Also tested that a configuration using default options is not affected and that
`make distcheck` still works as expected.
Previously we always ran distcheck with --disable-split-usr. This caused
test-path-util to fail with
Assertion 'fsck_exists("minix") == 0' failed at ../src/test/test-path-util.c:224, function test_fsck_exists(). Aborting.
as looking up fsck.minix would only look into DEFAULT_PATH_NORMAL, but on these
systems fsck is in /sbin/.
Introduce /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install [--root=] <action> <name>
abstraction, replacing the direct calling of chkconfig. This allows
distributions to call their specific tools like update-rc.d without patching
systemd.
Ship systemd-sysv-install.SKELETON as an example for packagers how to implement
this.
Drop the --enable-chkconfig configure option.
Document this in README and point to it in NEWS.
Using the DIR macro breaks caching and has no benefit as it only offers
performance improvements when AS_FOR is used with a single element list.
Also --with-lds-dir= was broken as we never set have_efi_lds in this case.
Fix this and check if PATH actually contains the efi-lds file.
The build would fail later anyway, so it is better to bail
out early.
Also check for the second bios file only if the first one was not
found. I'm not sure which one is preferred. If the other one, the
order should be flipped.
gcc5 introduced this option (gcc4 silently ignores it, which is fine).
Given that gcc5 thinks 'unsigned char'/'unsigned short' is promoted to
'int' for var-args, stuff like this spits out warnings:
uint8_t x;
printf("%" PRIu8", x);
gcc5 promots 'x' to 'int', instead of 'unsigned int' and thus gets a
signedness-warnings as it expects an 'unsigned int'.
glibc states otherwise: unsigneds are always promoted to 'unsigned int'.
Until gcc and glibc figure this out, lets just ignore that warning (which
is totally useless in its current form).
We should prefer the unifont.hex file from the system, instead of our
own. Upstream has made a few releases since our version was included,
and we should follow upstream changes. But adding 2.6MB to our source
repo every time upstream releases is not nice.
The old "systemd-import" binary is now an internal tool. We still use it
as asynchronous backend for systemd-importd. Since the import tool might
require some IO and CPU resources (due to qcow2 explosion, and
decompression), and because we might want to run it with more minimal
priviliges we still keep it around as the worker binary to execute as
child process of importd.
machinectl now has verbs for pulling down images, cancelling them and
listing them.
We use PY_LOG_COMPILER in Makefile.am for running *.py tests, which requires
automake's parallel test runner. This has only been the default from 1.13 on.
As we only require automake 1.11, add it as an option explicitly.
With this change the import tool will now unpack qcow2 images into
normal raw disk images, suitable for usage with nspawn.
This allows has the benefit of also allowing importing Ubuntu Cloud
images for usage with nspawn.
