(Well, at least the ones where that makes sense. Where it does't make
sense are the ones that re invoked on the root path, which cannot
possibly be a symlink.)
Previously we'd use a directory /run/systemd/nspawn/incoming for
accepting mounts to propagate from the host. This is a bit weird, since
we have a shared namespace: /run/systemd/ contains both stuff managed by
the surround nspawn as well as from the systemd inside.
We now have the /run/host/ hierarchy that has special stuff we want to
pass from host to container. Let's make use of that here, and move this
directory here too.
This is not a compat breakage, since the payload never interfaces with
that directory natively: it's only nspawn and machined that need to
agree on it.
This allows more granular access control in PolicyKit rules, similar to
/etc/sudoers, for polkit actions:
* org.freedesktop.machine1.host-shell
* org.freedesktop.machine1.shell
Example configuration, place in /etc/polkit-1/rules.d/
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.freedesktop.machine1.host-shell"
&& subject.user == "my-user"
&& action.lookup("user") == "target-user") {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
This is the opposite of RegisterMachine: machined knows that the machine is
"gone", but doesn't do anything on its own. We already had TerminateMachine,
but that would stop the unit, which isn't always wanted.
chase_symlinks() would return negative on error, and either a non-negative status
or a non-negative fd when CHASE_OPEN was given. This made the interface quite
complicated, because dependning on the flags used, we would get two different
"types" of return object. Coverity was always confused by this, and flagged
every use of chase_symlinks() without CHASE_OPEN as a resource leak (because it
would this that an fd is returned). This patch uses a saparate output parameter,
so there is no confusion.
(I think it is OK to have functions which return either an error or an fd. It's
only returning *either* an fd or a non-fd that is confusing.)
Allocating a pty is done in a couple of places so let's introduce a new helper
which does the job.
Also the new function, as well as openpt_in_namespace(), returns both pty
master and slave so the callers don't need to know about the pty slave
allocation details.
For the same reasons machine_openpt() prototype has also been changed to return
both pty master and slave so callers don't need to allocate a pty slave which
might be in a different namespace.
Finally openpt_in_namespace() has been renamed into
openpt_allocate_in_namespace().
This doesn't really change much, but feels more correct to do, as it
ensures that all messages currently queued in the bus connections are
definitely unreffed and thus destryoing of the connection object will
follow immediately.
Strictly speaking this change is entirely unnecessary, since nothing
else could have acquired a ref to the connection and queued a message
in, however, now that we have the new sd_bus_close_unref() helper it
makes a lot of sense to use it here, to ensure that whatever happens
nothing that might have been queued fucks with us.
fdopen doesn't accept "e", it's ignored. Let's not mislead people into
believing that it actually sets O_CLOEXEC.
From `man 3 fdopen`:
> e (since glibc 2.7):
> Open the file with the O_CLOEXEC flag. See open(2) for more information. This flag is ignored for fdopen()
As mentioned by @jlebon in #11131.
This splits out a bunch of functions from fileio.c that have to do with
temporary files. Simply to make the header files a bit shorter, and to
group things more nicely.
No code changes, just some rearranging of source files.
Now that we don't (mis-)use the env file parser to parse kernel command
lines there's no need anymore to override the used newline character
set. Let's hence drop the argument and just "\n\r" always. This nicely
simplifies our code.
This is required for /proc/self/fd/xyz to work, but that's what we need
to convert the O_PATH fd returned by chase_symlinks() back to a regular
file fd. Hence, let's do the joining of the namespaces fully and
correctly, by doing fork()+setns()+fork() with the PID and fs
namespaces.
This makes use of the new namespace_fork() helper we just added.
Fixes: #10549
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.
This takes inspiration from Rust:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take
and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).
It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)
This rearranges chase_symlinks() a bit: if no special flags are
specified it will now revert to behaviour before
b12d25a8d6. However, if the new
CHASE_TRAIL_SLASH flag is specified it will follow the behaviour
introduced by that commit.
I wasn't sure which one to make the beaviour that requires specification
of a flag to enable. I opted to make the "append trailing slash"
behaviour the one to enable by a flag, following the thinking that the
function should primarily be used to generate a normalized path, and I
am pretty sure a path without trailing slash is the more "normalized"
one, as the trailing slash is not really a part of it, but merely a
"decorator" that tells various system calls to generate ENOTDIR if the
path doesn't refer to a path.
Or to say this differently: if the slash was part of normalization then
we really should add it in all cases when the final path is a directory,
not just when the user originally specified it.

Using wait_for_terminate_and_check() instead of wait_for_terminate()
let's us simplify, shorten and unify the return value checking and
logging of waitid(). Hence, let's use it all over the place.
This adds a new safe_fork() wrapper around fork() and makes use of it
everywhere. The new wrapper does a couple of things we previously did
manually and separately in a safer, more correct and automatic way:
1. Optionally resets signal handlers/mask in the child
2. Sets a name on all processes we fork off right after forking off (and
the patch assigns useful names for all processes we fork off now,
following a systematic naming scheme: always enclosed in () – in order
to indicate that these are not proper, exec()ed processes, but only
forked off children, and if the process is long-running with only our
own code, without execve()'ing something else, it gets am "sd-" prefix.)
3. Optionally closes all file descriptors in the child
4. Optionally sets a PR_SET_DEATHSIG to SIGTERM in the child, in a safe
way so that the parent dying before this happens being handled
safely.
5. Optionally reopens the logs
6. Optionally connects stdin/stdout/stderr to /dev/null
7. Debug logs about the forked off processes.
