If we have a template unit template@.service, it should be allowed to specify a
dependency on a unit without an instance, bar@.service. When the unit is created,
the instance will be propagated into the target, so template@inst.service will
depend on bar@inst.service.
This commit changes unit_dependency_name_compatible(), which makes the manager
accept links like that, and unit_file_verify_alias(), so that the installation
function will agree to create a symlink like that, and finally the tests are
adjusted to pass.
This mostly reuses existing checkers used by pid1, so handling of aliases
should be consistent. Hopefully, with the test it'll be clearer what it
happening.
Support for .wants/.requires "aliases" is restored. Those are still used in the
wild quite a bit, so we need to support them.
See https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/13119 for a discussion of aliases
with an instance that point to a different template: this is allowed.
It turns out that this is not necessary. When we try to resolve alias@inst, we
first check alias@inst, and if that is not found, fall back to alias@. Since we
already created a symlink for alias@, we will find that and the result will be
the same.
Don't try to show top level drop-in for non-existent units or when trying to
instantiate non-instantiated units:
$ systemctl cat nonexistent@.service
Assertion 'name' failed at src/shared/dropin.c:143, function unit_file_find_dirs(). Aborting.
$ systemctl cat systemd-journald@.service
Assertion 'name' failed at src/shared/dropin.c:143, function unit_file_find_dirs(). Aborting.
Otherwise, systemd-udev-trigger|settle.service that ran in the initrd may
ramain active, and never re-run again from the system root.
This is observed by forexample examining ESP with udevadm info, which in the
initrd has all the ID_* variables, and none of them in fully booted system.
The code existed in machinectl to use stdin/stdout if the path for
import/export tar/raw was empty or dash (-) but a check to
`fd_verify_regular` in importd prevented it from working.
Update the check instead to explicitly check for regular file or
pipe/fifo.
Fixes#14346
The variable is always initialized, but the compiler might not notice
that. With gcc-9.2.1-1.fc31:
$ CFLAGS='-Werror=maybe-uninitialized -Og' meson build
$ ninja -C build
[...]
../src/basic/tmpfile-util.c: In function ‘mkostemp_safe’:
../src/basic/tmpfile-util.c:76:12: error: ‘fd’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
76 | if (fd < 0)
| ^
Ideally, we would want to report this over back over dbus. But that is pretty hard,
because the unitfile parsing logic doesn't provide any feedback.
systemd-analyze verify also doesn't notice the issue, because it doesn't look
at the [Install] section at all. Let's print a message in the logs at least.
