We were passing 1/4th of the size in bytes as argument. So depending
on the size of the array, either we'd only transfer a subset of values,
or we'd get an alignment error.
Whenever I see EXTRACT_QUOTES, I'm always confused whether it means to
leave the quotes in or to take them out. Let's say "unquote", like we
say "cunescape".
Takes a single /sys/fs/bpf/pinned_prog string as argument, but may be
specified multiple times. An empty assignment resets all previous filters.

Make possible to set NUMA allocation policy for manager. Manager's
policy is by default inherited to all forked off processes. However, it
is possible to override the policy on per-service basis. Currently we
support, these policies: default, prefer, bind, interleave, local.
See man 2 set_mempolicy for details on each policy.
Overall NUMA policy actually consists of two parts. Policy itself and
bitmask representing NUMA nodes where is policy effective. Node mask can
be specified using related option, NUMAMask. Default mask can be
overwritten on per-service level.
The CPU_SET_S api is pretty bad. In particular, it has a parameter for the size
of the array, but operations which take two (CPU_EQUAL_S) or even three arrays
(CPU_{AND,OR,XOR}_S) still take just one size. This means that all arrays must
be of the same size, or buffer overruns will occur. This is exactly what our
code would do, if it received an array of unexpected size over the network.
("Unexpected" here means anything different from what cpu_set_malloc() detects
as the "right" size.)
Let's rework this, and store the size in bytes of the allocated storage area.
The code will now parse any number up to 8191, independently of what the current
kernel supports. This matches the kernel maximum setting for any architecture,
to make things more portable.
Fixes#12605.
In cgroup v2 we have protection tunables -- currently MemoryLow and
MemoryMin (there will be more in future for other resources, too). The
design of these protection tunables requires not only intermediate
cgroups to propagate protections, but also the units at the leaf of that
resource's operation to accept it (by setting MemoryLow or MemoryMin).
This makes sense from an low-level API design perspective, but it's a
good idea to also have a higher-level abstraction that can, by default,
propagate these resources to children recursively. In this patch, this
happens by having descendants set memory.low to N if their ancestor has
DefaultMemoryLow=N -- assuming they don't set a separate MemoryLow
value.
Any affected unit can opt out of this propagation by manually setting
`MemoryLow` to some value in its unit configuration. A unit can also
stop further propagation by setting `DefaultMemoryLow=` with no
argument. This removes further propagation in the subtree, but has no
effect on the unit itself (for that, use `MemoryLow=0`).
Our use case in production is simplifying the configuration of machines
which heavily rely on memory protection tunables, but currently require
tweaking a huge number of unit files to make that a reality. This
directive makes that significantly less fragile, and decreases the risk
of misconfiguration.
After this patch is merged, I will implement DefaultMemoryMin= using the
same principles.
This adds a new per-service OOMPolicy= (along with a global
DefaultOOMPolicy=) that controls what to do if a process of the service
is killed by the kernel's OOM killer. It has three different values:
"continue" (old behaviour), "stop" (terminate the service), "kill" (let
the kernel kill all the service's processes).
On top of that, track OOM killer events per unit: generate a per-unit
structured, recognizable log message when we see an OOM killer event,
and put the service in a failure state if an OOM killer event was seen
and the selected policy was not "continue". A new "result" is defined
for this case: "oom-kill".
All of this relies on new cgroupv2 kernel functionality: the
"memory.events" notification interface and the "memory.oom.group"
attribute (which makes the kernel kill all cgroup processes
automatically).
Let services use a private UTS namespace. In addition, a seccomp filter is
installed on set{host,domain}name and a ro bind mounts on
/proc/sys/kernel/{host,domain}name.
This new setting allows configuration of CFS period on the CPU cgroup, instead
of using a hardcoded default of 100ms.
Tested:
- Legacy cgroup + Unified cgroup
- systemctl set-property
- systemctl show
- Confirmed that the cgroup settings (such as cpu.cfs_period_ns) were set
appropriately, including updating the CPU quota (cpu.cfs_quota_ns) when
CPUQuotaPeriodSec= is updated.
- Checked that clamping works properly when either period or (quota * period)
are below the resolution of 1ms, or if period is above the max of 1s.
This has been irritating me for quite a while: let's prefix these enum
values with a common prefix, like we do for almost all other enums.
No change in behaviour, just some renaming.
add new "systemd-run-generator" for running arbitrary commands from the kernel command line as system services using the "systemd.run=" kernel command line switch
This adds SuccessActionExitStatus= and FailureActionExitStatus= that may
be used to configure the exit status to propagate in when
SuccessAction=exit or FailureAction=exit is used.
When not specified let's also propagate the exit status of the main
process we fork off for the unit.
Ideally, coccinelle would strip unnecessary braces too. But I do not see any
option in coccinelle for this, so instead, I edited the patch text using
search&replace to remove the braces. Unfortunately this is not fully automatic,
in particular it didn't deal well with if-else-if-else blocks and ifdefs, so
there is an increased likelikehood be some bugs in such spots.
I also removed part of the patch that coccinelle generated for udev, where we
returns -1 for failure. This should be fixed independently.
Add LogRateLimitIntervalSec= and LogRateLimitBurst= options for
services. If provided, these values get passed to the journald
client context, and those values are used in the rate limiting
function in the journal over the the journald.conf values.
Part of #10230
While the config parser correctly handles the case of multiple IPs,
bus_append_cgroup_property was only parsing one IP,
and it would fail with "Failed to parse IP address prefix" when given
a list of IPs.
Allows configuring the watchdog signal (with a default of SIGABRT).
This allows an alternative to SIGABRT when coredumps are not desirable.
Appropriate references to SIGABRT or aborting were renamed to reflect
more liberal watchdog signals.
Closes#8658
We so far had various placed we'd parse percentages with
parse_percent(). Let's make them use parse_permille() instead, which is
downward compatible (as it also parses percent values), and increases
the granularity a bit. Given that on the wire we usually normalize
relative specifications to something like UINT32_MAX anyway changing
from base-100 to base-1000 calculations can be done easily without
breaking compat.
This commit doesn't document this change in the man pages. While
allowing more precise specifcations permille is not as commonly
understood as perent I guess, hence let's keep this out of the docs for
now.
Usecase is to allow changing the final kill from SIGKILL to SIGQUIT which
should create a core dump useful for debugging why the service didn't stop
with the SIGTERM
The kernel added support for a new cgroup memory controller knob memory.min in
bf8d5d52ffe8 ("memcg: introduce memory.min") which was merged during v4.18
merge window.
Add MemoryMin to support memory.min.
The method already uses a boolean argument to determine whether it is in
whitelist mode or not. The code that will parse the string of filters
does not expect the ~, since it already has the boolean argument. Thus,
it will fail to parse the list of filters.
