We return BUS_ERROR_NO_SUCH_UNIT a.k.a. org.freedesktop.systemd1.NoSuchUnit
in various places. In #16813:
Aug 22 06:14:48 core sudo[2769199]: pam_systemd_home(sudo:account): Failed to query user record: Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.home1.service not found.
Aug 22 06:14:48 core dbus-daemon[5311]: [system] Activation via systemd failed for unit 'dbus-org.freedesktop.home1.service': Unit dbus-org.freedesktop.home1.service not found.
Aug 22 06:14:48 core dbus-daemon[5311]: [system] Activating via systemd: service name='org.freedesktop.home1' unit='dbus-org.freedesktop.home1.service' requested by ':1.6564' (uid=0 pid=2769199 comm="sudo su ")
This particular error comes from bus_unit_validate_load_state() in pid1:
case UNIT_NOT_FOUND:
return sd_bus_error_setf(error, BUS_ERROR_NO_SUCH_UNIT, "Unit %s not found.", u->id);
It seems possible that we should return a different error, but it doesn't really
matter: if we change pid1 to return a different error, we still need to handle
BUS_ERROR_NO_SUCH_UNIT as in this patch to handle pid1 with current code.
Previously, when doing an async PK query we'd store the original
callback/userdata pair and call it again after the PK request is
complete. This is problematic, since PK queries might be slow and in the
meantime the userdata might be released and re-acquired. Let's avoid
this by always traversing through the message handlers so that we always
re-resolve the callback and userdata pair and thus can be sure it's
up-to-date and properly valid.
When we do an async pk request, let's store which action/details we used
for the original request, and when we are called for the second time,
let's compare. If the action/details changed, let's not allow the access
to go through.
