"plain" is a semantic value that cryptsetup(8) uses to describe a plain
dm-crypt volume that does not use a hash. Catch this value earlier and
ensure that a NULL params.hash is passed to crypt_format to avoid
passing an invalid hash type to the libcryptsetup backend.
FDO bug #56593.
Since we already allow defining the mode of AF_UNIX sockets and FIFO, it
makes sense to also allow specific user/group ownership of the socket
file for restricting access.
The mount() system call, which we issue before loading modules, will trigger
a modprobe by the kernel and block until it returns. Trying to load it again
later, will have exactly the same result as the first time.
This was premarily intended to support the LSB facility $httpd which is
only known by Fedora, and a bad idea since it lacks any real-life
usecase.
Similar, drop support for some other old Fedora-specific facilities.
Also, document the rules for introduction of new facilities, to clarify
the situation for the future.
The behaviour of the common name##_from_string conversion is surprising.
It accepts not only the strings from name##_table but also any number
that falls within the range of the table. The order of items in most of
our tables is an internal affair. It should not be visible to the user.
I know of a case where the surprising numeric conversion leads to a crash.
We will allow the direct numeric conversion only for the tables where the
mapping of strings to numeric values has an external meaning. This holds
for the following lookup tables:
- netlink_family, ioprio_class, ip_tos, sched_policy - their numeric
values are stable as they are defined by the Linux kernel interface.
- log_level, log_facility_unshifted - the well-known syslog interface.
We allow the user to use numeric values whose string names systemd does
not know. For instance, the user may want to test a new kernel featuring
a scheduling policy that did not exist when his systemd version was
released. A slightly unpleasant effect of this is that the
name##_to_string conversion cannot return pointers to constant strings
anymore. The strings have to be allocated on demand and freed by the
caller.
strtol() and friends may set EINVAL if no conversion was performed, but
they are not required to do so. In practice they don't. We need to check
for it.

This adds SMACK label configuration options to socket units.
SMACK labels should be applied to most objects on disk well before
execution time, but two items remain that are generated dynamically
at run time that require SMACK labels to be set in order to enforce
MAC on all objects.
Files on disk can be labelled using package management.
For device nodes, simple udev rules are sufficient to add SMACK labels
at boot/insertion time.
Sockets can be created at run time and systemd does just that for
several services. In order to protect FIFO's and UNIX domain sockets,
we must instruct systemd to apply SMACK labels at runtime.
This patch adds the following options:
Smack - applicable to FIFO's.
SmackIpIn/SmackIpOut - applicable to sockets.
No external dependencies are required to support SMACK, as setting
the labels is done using fsetxattr(). The labels can be set on a
kernel that does not have SMACK enabled either, so there is no need
to #ifdef any of this code out.
For more information about SMACK, please see Documentation/Smack.txt
in the kernel source code.
v3 of this patch changes the config options to be CamelCased.
Add efivarfs to the mount_table in mount-setup.c, so the EFI variable
filesystem will be mounted when systemd executed.
The EFI variable filesystem will merge in v3.7 or v3.8 linux kernel.
