This introduces a new function unit_prepare_exec() that encapsulates a
number of calls we do in preparation for spawning off some processes in
all our unit types that do so.
This allows us to neatly unify a bit of code between unit types and
shorten our code.
When preparing for a restart we quickly go through the DEAD/INACTIVE
service state before entering AUTO_RESTART. When doing this, we need to
make sure we don't destroy the FD store. Previously this was done by
checking the failure state of the unit, and keeping the FD store around
when the unit failed, under the assumption that the restart logic will
then get into action.
This is not entirely correct howver, as there might be failure states
that will no result in restarts.
With this commit we slightly alter the logic: a ref counter for the fd
store is added, that is increased right before we handle the restart
logic, and decreased again right-after.
This should ensure that the fdstore lives exactly as long as it needs.
Follow-up for f0bfbfac43.
This adds a per-service restart counter. Each time an automatic
restart is scheduled (due to Restart=) it is increased by one. Its
current value is exposed over the bus as NRestarts=. It is also logged
(in a structured, recognizable way) on each restart.
Note that this really only counts automatic starts triggered by Restart=
(which it nicely complements). Manual restarts will reset the counter,
as will explicit calls to "systemctl reset-failed". It's supposed to be
a tool for measure the automatic restart feature, and nothing else.
Fixes: #4126
Introduce a SERVICE_FAILURE_PROTOCOL error type for when a service does
not follow the protocol.
This error type is used when a pid file is expected, but not delivered.
This adds a new boolean setting DynamicUser= to service files. If set, a new
user will be allocated dynamically when the unit is started, and released when
it is stopped. The user ID is allocated from the range 61184..65519. The user
will not be added to /etc/passwd (but an NSS module to be added later should
make it show up in getent passwd).
For now, care should be taken that the service writes no files to disk, since
this might result in files owned by UIDs that might get assigned dynamically to
a different service later on. Later patches will tighten sandboxing in order to
ensure that this cannot happen, except for a few selected directories.
A simple way to test this is:
systemd-run -p DynamicUser=1 /bin/sleep 99999
Add sd_notify() parameter to change watchdog_usec during runtime.
Application can change watchdog_usec value by
sd_notify like this. Example. sd_notify(0, "WATCHDOG_USEC=20000000").
To reset watchdog_usec as configured value in service file,
restart service.
Notice.
sd_event is not currently supported. If application uses
sd_event_set_watchdog, or sd_watchdog_enabled, do not use
"WATCHDOG_USEC" option through sd_notify.
Let's move the enforcement of the per-unit start limit from unit.c into the
type-specific files again. For unit types that know a concept of "result" codes
this allows us to hook up the start limit condition to it with an explicit
result code. Also, this makes sure that the state checks in clal like
service_start() may be done before the start limit is checked, as the start
limit really should be checked last, right before everything has been verified
to be in order.
The generic start limit logic is left in unit.c, but the invocation of it is
moved into the per-type files, in the various xyz_start() functions, so that
they may place the check at the right location.
Note that this change drops the enforcement entirely from device, slice, target
and scope units, since these unit types generally may not fail activation, or
may only be activated a single time. This is also documented now.
Note that restores the "start-limit-hit" result code that existed before
6bf0f408e4 already in the service code. However,
it's not introduced for all units that have a result code concept.
Fixes#3166.
The "resources" error is really just the generic error we return when
we hit some kind of error and we have no more appropriate error for the case to
return, for example because of some OS error.
Hence, reword the explanation and don't claim any relation to resource limits.
Admittedly, the "resources" service error is a bit of a misnomer, but I figure
it's kind of API now.
Fixes: #2716
This moves the StartLimitBurst=, StartLimitInterval=, StartLimitAction=, RebootArgument= from the [Service] section
into the [Unit] section of unit files, and thus support it in all unit types, not just in services.
This way we can enforce the start limit much earlier, in particular before testing the unit conditions, so that
repeated start-up failure due to failed conditions is also considered for the start limit logic.
For compatibility the four options may also be configured in the [Service] section still, but we only document them in
their new section [Unit].
This also renamed the socket unit failure code "service-failed-permanent" into "service-start-limit-hit" to express
more clearly what it is about, after all it's only triggered through the start limit being hit.
Finally, the code in busname_trigger_notify() and socket_trigger_notify() is altered to become more alike.
Fixes: #2467
This clean-ups timeout handling in PID 1. Specifically, instead of storing 0 in internal timeout variables as
indication for a disabled timeout, use USEC_INFINITY which is in-line with how we do this in the rest of our code
(following the logic that 0 means "no", and USEC_INFINITY means "never").
This also replace all usec_t additions with invocations to usec_add(), so that USEC_INFINITY is properly propagated,
and sd-event considers it has indication for turning off the event source.
This also alters the deserialization of the units to restart timeouts from the time they were originally started from.
Before this patch timeouts would be restarted beginning with the time of the deserialization, which could lead to
artificially prolonged timeouts if a daemon reload took place.
Finally, a new RuntimeMaxSec= setting is introduced for service units, that specifies a maximum runtime after which a
specific service is forcibly terminated. This is useful to put time limits on time-intensive processing jobs.
This also simplifies the various xyz_spawn() calls of the various types in that explicit distruction of the timers is
removed, as that is done anyway by the state change handlers, and a state change is always done when the xyz_spawn()
calls fail.
Fixes: #2249
During daemon-reload, PID1 temporarly loses its DBus connection, so there's
a small window in which all signals sent by dbus-daemon are lost.
This is a problem, since we rely on the NameOwnerChanged signals in order to
consider a service with Type=dbus fully started or terminated, respectively.
In order to fix this, a rewrite of bus_list_names() is necessary. We used
to walk the current list of names on the bus, and blindly triggered the
bus_name_owner_change() callback on each service, providing the actual name
as current owner. This implementation has a number of problems:
* We cannot detect if the the name was moved from one owner to the other
while we were reloading
* We don't notify services which missed the name loss signal
* Providing the actual name as current owner is a hack, as the comment also
admits.
To fix this, this patch carries the following changes:
* Track the name of the current bus name owner, and (de-)serialize it
during reload. This way, we can detect changes.
* In bus_list_names(), walk the list of bus names we're interested in
first, and then see if the name is active on the bus. If it is,
check it it's still the same as it used to be, and synthesize
NameOwnerChanged signals for the name add and/or loss.
This should fully synchronize the current name list with the internal
state of all services.
When starting a transient service, allow setting stdin/stdout/stderr fds
for it, by passing them in via the bus.
This also simplifies some of the serialization code for units.
This adds support for naming file descriptors passed using socket
activation. The names are passed in a new $LISTEN_FDNAMES= environment
variable, that matches the existign $LISTEN_FDS= one and contains a
colon-separated list of names.
This also adds support for naming fds submitted to the per-service fd
store using FDNAME= in the sd_notify() message.
This also adds a new FileDescriptorName= setting for socket unit files
to set the name for fds created by socket units.
This also adds a new call sd_listen_fds_with_names(), that is similar to
sd_listen_fds(), but also returns the names of the fds.
systemd-activate gained the new --fdname= switch to specify a name for
testing socket activation.
This is based on #1247 by Maciej Wereski.
Fixes#1247.
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.
With this change it is possible to send file descriptors to PID 1, via
sd_pid_notify_with_fds() which PID 1 will store individually for each
service, and pass via the usual fd passing logic on next invocation.
This is useful for enable daemon reload schemes where daemons serialize
their state to /run, push their fds into PID 1 and terminate, restoring
their state on next start from the data in /run and passed in from PID
1.
The fds are kept by PID 1 as long as no POLLHUP or POLLERR is seen on
them, and the service they belong to are either not dead or failed, or
have a job queued.
This makes possible to spawn service instances triggered by socket with
MLS/MCS SELinux labels which are created based on information provided by
connected peer.
Implementation of label_get_child_mls_label derived from xinetd.

If BusPolicy= was passed, the parser function will have created
an ExecContext->bus_endpoint object, along with policy information.
In that case, create a kdbus endpoint, and pass its path name to the
namespace logic, to it will be mounted over the actual 'bus' node.
At endpoint creation time, no policy is updloaded. That is done after
fork(), through a separate call. This is necessary because we don't
know the real uid of the process earlier than that.
When this system-wide start-up timeout is hit we execute one of the
failure actions already implemented for services that fail.
This should not only be useful on embedded devices, but also on laptops
which have the power-button reachable when the lid is closed. This
devices, when in a backpack might get powered on by accident due to the
easily reachable power button. We want to make sure that the system
turns itself off if it starts up due this after a while.
When the system manages to fully start-up logind will suspend the
machine by default if the lid is closed. However, in some cases we don't
even get as far as logind, and the boot hangs much earlier, for example
because we ask for a LUKS password that nobody ever enters.
Yeah, this is a real-life problem on my Yoga 13, which has one of those
easily accessible power buttons, even if the device is closed.
Parsing sysv files was moved to the sysv-generator in the previous commit.
This patch removes the sysv parsing from serivce.c.
Note that this patch drops the following now unused sysv-specific info
from service dump:
"SysV Init Script has LSB Header: (yes/no)"
"SysVEnabled: (yes/no)"
"SysVRunLevels: (levels)"
Restart=on-abnormal is similar to Restart=on-failure, but avoids
restarts on unclean exit codes (but still doing restarts on all
obviously unclean exits, such as timeouts, signals, coredumps, watchdog
timeouts).

When rebooting with systemctl, an optional argument can be passed to the
reboot system call. This makes it possible the specify the argument in a
service file and use it when the service triggers a restart.
This is useful to distinguish between manual reboots and reboots caused by
failing services.
This patch converts PID 1 to libsystemd-bus and thus drops the
dependency on libdbus. The only remaining code using libdbus is a test
case that validates our bus marshalling against libdbus' marshalling,
and this dependency can be turned off.
This patch also adds a couple of things to libsystem-bus, that are
necessary to make the port work:
- Synthesizing of "Disconnected" messages when bus connections are
severed.
- Support for attaching multiple vtables for the same interface on the
same path.
This patch also fixes the SetDefaultTarget() and GetDefaultTarget() bus
calls which used an inappropriate signature.
As a side effect we will now generate PropertiesChanged messages which
carry property contents, rather than just invalidation information.
We now treat passno as boleans in the generators, and don't need this any more. fsck itself
is able to sequentialize checks on the same local media, so in the common case the ordering
is redundant.
It is still possible to force an order by using .d fragments, in case that is desired.
Replace the very generic cgroup hookup with a much simpler one. With
this change only the high-level cgroup settings remain, the ability to
set arbitrary cgroup attributes is removed, so is support for adding
units to arbitrary cgroup controllers or setting arbitrary paths for
them (especially paths that are different for the various controllers).
This also introduces a new -.slice root slice, that is the parent of
system.slice and friends. This enables easy admin configuration of
root-level cgrouo properties.
This replaces DeviceDeny= by DevicePolicy=, and implicitly adds in
/dev/null, /dev/zero and friends if DeviceAllow= is used (unless this is
turned off by DevicePolicy=).
