This improves kernel command line parsing in a number of ways:
a) An kernel option "foo_bar=xyz" is now considered equivalent to
"foo-bar-xyz", i.e. when comparing kernel command line option names "-" and
"_" are now considered equivalent (this only applies to the option names
though, not the option values!). Most of our kernel options used "-" as word
separator in kernel command line options so far, but some used "_". With
this change, which was a source of confusion for users (well, at least of
one user: myself, I just couldn't remember that it's systemd.debug-shell,
not systemd.debug_shell). Considering both as equivalent is inspired how
modern kernel module loading normalizes all kernel module names to use
underscores now too.
b) All options previously using a dash for separating words in kernel command
line options now use an underscore instead, in all documentation and in
code. Since a) has been implemented this should not create any compatibility
problems, but normalizes our documentation and our code.
c) All kernel command line options which take booleans (or are boolean-like)
have been reworked so that "foobar" (without argument) is now equivalent to
"foobar=1" (but not "foobar=0"), thus normalizing the handling of our
boolean arguments. Specifically this means systemd.debug-shell and
systemd_debug_shell=1 are now entirely equivalent.
d) All kernel command line options which take an argument, and where no
argument is specified will now result in a log message. e.g. passing just
"systemd.unit" will no result in a complain that it needs an argument. This
is implemented in the proc_cmdline_missing_value() function.
e) There's now a call proc_cmdline_get_bool() similar to proc_cmdline_get_key()
that parses booleans (following the logic explained in c).
f) The proc_cmdline_parse() call's boolean argument has been replaced by a new
flags argument that takes a common set of bits with proc_cmdline_get_key().
g) All kernel command line APIs now begin with the same "proc_cmdline_" prefix.
h) There are now tests for much of this. Yay!
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.
We don't have plural in the name of any other -util files and this
inconsistency trips me up every time I try to type this file name
from memory. "formats-util" is even hard to pronounce.
This stripping is contolled by a new boolean parameter. When the parameter
is true, it means that the caller does not care about the distinction between
initrd and real root, and wants to act on both rd-dot-prefixed and unprefixed
parameters in the initramfs, and only on the unprefixed parameters in real
root. If the parameter is false, behaviour is the same as before.
Changes by caller:
log.c (systemd.log_*): changed to accept rd-dot-prefix params
pid1: no change, custom logic
cryptsetup-generator: no change, still accepts rd-dot-prefix params
debug-generator: no change, does not accept rd-dot-prefix params
fsck: changed to accept rd-dot-prefix params
fstab-generator: no change, custom logic
gpt-auto-generator: no change, custom logic
hibernate-resume-generator: no change, does not accept rd-dot-prefix params
journald: changed to accept rd-dot-prefix params
modules-load: no change, still accepts rd-dot-prefix params
quote-check: no change, does not accept rd-dot-prefix params
udevd: no change, still accepts rd-dot-prefix params
I added support for "rd." params in the three cases where I think it's
useful: logging, fsck options, journald forwarding options.
Since we ignore the result anyway, downgrade errors to warning.
log_oom() will still emit an error, but that's mostly theoretical, so it
is not worth complicating the code to avoid the small inconsistency
If `--test` command line option was passed, the systemd set skip_setup
to true during bootup. But after this we check again that arg_action is
test or help and opens pager depends on result.
We should skip setup in a case when `--test` is passed, but it is also
safe to set skip_setup in a case of `--help`. So let's remove first
check and move skip_setup = true to the second check.
When we print information about PID 1's crashdump subprocess failing. In this
case we *know* that we do not generate LSB exit codes, as it's basically PID 1
itself that exited there.
Previously we've used free_and_strdup() to fill arg_default_unit with unit
name, If we didn't pass default unit name through a kernel command line or
command line arguments. But we can use just strdup() instead of
free_and_strdup() for this, because we will start fill arg_default_unit
only if it wasn't set before.
systemd fills arg_default_unit during startup with default.target
value. But arg_default_unit may be overwritten in parse_argv() or
parse_proc_cmdline_item().
Let's check value of arg_default_unit after calls of parse_argv()
and parse_proc_cmdline_item() and fill it with default.target if
it wasn't filled before. In this way we will not spend unnecessary
time to for filling arg_default_unit with default.target.
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.
The parsing functions for [User]TasksMax were inconsistent. Empty string and
"infinity" were interpreted as no limit for TasksMax but not accepted for
UserTasksMax. Update them so that they're consistent with other knobs.
* Empty string indicates the default value.
* "infinity" indicates no limit.
While at it, replace opencoded (uint64_t) -1 with CGROUP_LIMIT_MAX in TasksMax
handling.
v2: Update empty string to indicate the default value as suggested by Zbigniew
Jędrzejewski-Szmek.
v3: Fixed empty UserTasksMax handling.
This way, invoking nspawn from a shell in the best case inherits the TERM
setting all the way down into the login shell spawned in the container.
Fixes: #3697
IMA wiki says: "If the IMA policy contains LSM labels, then the LSM
policy must be loaded prior to the IMA policy." Right now, in case of
Smack, the IMA policy is loaded before the Smack policy. Move the order
around to allow Smack labels to be used in IMA policy.
the ACTION_DONE was introduced in the 4288f61921 (dbus: automatically
generate and install introspection files ) commit and was used in
systemd --introspect command.
Later 'introspect' command was removed in the ca2871d9b (bus: remove
static introspection file export) commit and have no users anymore.
So we can remove it.
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
When systemd is started by the kernel, the kernel set the TERM
environment variable unconditionnally to "linux" no matter the console
device used. This might be an issue for dumb devices with no colors
support.
This patch uses default_term_for_tty() for getting a more accurate
value. But it makes sure to keep the user preferences (if any) which
might be passed via the kernel command line. For that purpose /proc
should be mounted.
The current raw_clone function takes two arguments, the cloning flags and
a pointer to the stack for the cloned child. The raw cloning without
passing a "thread main" function does not make sense if a new stack is
specified, as it returns in both the parent and the child, which will fail
in the child as the stack is virgin. All uses of raw_clone indeed pass NULL
for the stack pointer which indicates that both processes should share the
stack address (so you better don't pass CLONE_VM).
This commit refactors the code to not require the caller to pass the stack
address, as NULL is the only sensible option. It also adds the magic code
needed to make raw_clone work on sparc64, which does not return 0 in %o0
for the child, but indicates the child process by setting %o1 to non-zero.
This refactoring is not plain aesthetic, because non-NULL stack addresses
need to get mangled before being passed to the clone syscall (you have to
apply STACK_BIAS), whereas NULL must not be mangled. Implementing the
conditional mangling of the stack address would needlessly complicate the
code.
raw_clone is moved to a separete header, because the burden of including
the assert machinery and sched.h shouldn't be applied to every user of
missing_syscalls.h
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().

We generally follow the rule that for time settings we suffix the setting name
with "Sec" to indicate the default unit if none is specified. The only
exception was the rate limiting interval settings. Fix this, and keep the old
names for compatibility.
Do the same for journald's RateLimitInterval= setting
This adds two new settings TriggerLimitIntervalSec= and TriggerLimitBurst= that
define a rate limit for activation of socket units. When the limit is hit, the
socket is is put into a failure mode. This is an alternative fix for #2467,
since the original fix resulted in issue #2684.
In a later commit the StartLimitInterval=/StartLimitBurst= rate limiter will be
changed to be applied after any start conditions checks are made. This way,
there are two separate rate limiters enforced: one at triggering time, before
any jobs are queued with this patch, as well as the start limit that is moved
again to be run immediately before the unit is activated. Condition checks are
done in between the two, and thus no longer affect the start limit.
