Currently we have no way how to specify dependencies between fstab
entries (or another units) in the /etc/fstab. It means that users are
forced to bypass fstab and write .mount units manually.
The patch introduces new systemd fstab options:
x-systemd.requires=<PATH>
- to specify dependence an another mount (PATH is translated to unit name)
x-systemd.requires=<UNIT>
- to specify dependence on arbitrary UNIT
x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=<PATH ...>
- to specify dependence on another paths, implemented by
RequiresMountsFor=. The option may be specified more than once.
For example two bind mounts where B depends on A:
/mnt/test/A /mnt/test/A none bind,defaults
/mnt/test/A /mnt/test/B none bind,x-systemd.requires=/mnt/test/A
More complex example with overlay FS where one mount point depends on
"low" and "upper" directories:
/dev/sdc1 /mnt/low ext4 defaults
/dev/sdc2 /mnt/high ext4 defaults
overlay /mnt/merged overlay lowerdir=/mnt/low,upperdir=/mnt/high/data,workdir=/mnt/high/work,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=/mnt/low,x-systemd.requires-mounts-for=mnt/high

A variety of changes:
- Make sure all our calls distuingish OOM from other errors if OOM is
not the only error possible.
- Be much stricter when parsing escaped paths, do not accept trailing or
leading escaped slashes.
- Change unit validation to take a bit mask for allowing plain names,
instance names or template names or an combination thereof.
- Refuse manipulating invalid unit name
This makes it obvious that those functions are only usable in the
initramfs.
Also, add a warning when noauto, nofail, or automount is used for the
root fs, instead of silently ignoring. Using those options would be a
sign of significant misconfiguration, and if we bother to check for
them, than let's go all the way and complain.
Other various small cleanups and reformattings elsewhere.
filtered was used to store an allocated string twice. The first allocation was
thus lost. The string is not needed for anything, so simply skip the allocation.
Fixup for deb0a77cf0.
And other non-device entries (like fstab does).
Mount whatever the user asked to be mounted on / on the kernel
command line. Do less sanity check and do *not* bail out
when the mount device looks strange or does not exist.
This basically makes the changes for deviceless filesystems
from yesterday unnecessary and is in line with what we do for
filesystems set up in fstab.
Remove some code that is now dead (reverting fb02a2775a and
b0438462).
[tomegun:
- change patch title/description a bit.
- don't touch the /usr logic, that would be a separate change and
we don't currently have a convincing use-case for that.
- don't bail out on /sys ro. This only makes sense in containers,
where we would not be doing this anyway. If there is a use-case
we could consider that as a separate patch.]
A failed priority is not something worth stopping boot over. Most people
have only one swap device, in which case priority is irrelevant, and even
if there is more than one swap device, they are all usable, and ignoring the
priority field should only result in some loss of performance.
The kernel will report the priority as -1 if not set, so it's easy for
people to make this mistake.

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.
After all it is now much more like strjoin() than strappend(). At the
same time, add support for NULL sentinels, even if they are normally not
necessary.
We would ignore options like "fail" and "auto", and for any option
which takes a value the first assignment would win. Repeated and
options equivalent to the default are rarely used, but they have been
documented forever, and people might use them. Especially on the
kernel command line it is easier to append a repeated or negated
option at the end.
This fixes parsing of options in shared/generator.c. Existing code
had some issues:
- it would treate whitespace and semicolons as seperators. fstab(5)
is pretty clear that only commas matter. And the syntax does
not allow for spaces to be inserted in the field in fstab.
Whitespace might be escaped, but then it should not seperate
options. Treat whitespace and semicolons as any other character.
- it assumed that x-systemd.device-timeout would always be followed
by "=". But this is not guaranteed, hasmntopt will return this
option even if there's no value. Uninitialized memory could be read.
- some error paths would log, and inconsistently, some would just
return an error code.
Filtering is split out to a separate function and tests are added.
Similar code paths in other places are adjusted to use the new function.
We always should use the same checks when deciding whether swap support
and mounting of devices is supported. Hence, let's make
fstab-generator's logic more similar to the usual logic we follow:
a) Look for /proc/swaps and no container support before activating
swaps.
b) Look for /sys being writable befire supporting device mounts.
There is no need to require mount.usrflags. The original implementation
assumed that a btrfs subvolume would always be needed but that is not
applicable to systems that do not use btrfs for /usr.
Similar to using rootflags= for the default of mount.usrflags=, append
the classic 'ro' and 'rw' flags to the mount options.
If the format string contains %m, clearly errno must have a meaningful
value, so we might as well use log_*_errno to have ERRNO= logged.
Using:
find . -name '*.[ch]' | xargs sed -r -i -e \
's/log_(debug|info|notice|warning|error|emergency)\((".*%m.*")/log_\1_errno(errno, \2/'
Plus some whitespace, linewrap, and indent adjustments.
As a followup to 086891e5c1 "log: add an "error" parameter to all
low-level logging calls and intrdouce log_error_errno() as log calls
that take error numbers", use sed to convert the simple cases to use
the new macros:
find . -name '*.[ch]' | xargs sed -r -i -e \
's/log_(debug|info|notice|warning|error|emergency)\("(.*)%s"(.*), strerror\(-([a-zA-Z_]+)\)\);/log_\1_errno(-\4, "\2%m"\3);/'
Multi-line log_*() invocations are not covered.
And we also should add log_unit_*_errno().
systemd stops adding automatic dependencies on swap.target to swap
units. If a dependency is required, it has to be added by unit
configuration. fstab-generator did that already, except that now it is
modified to create a Requires or Wants type dependency, depending on
whether nofail is specified in /etc/fstab. This makes .swap units
obey the nofail/noauto options more or less the same as .mount units.
Documentation is extended to clarify that, and to make
systemd.mount(5) and system.swap(5) more similar. The gist is not
changed, because current behaviour actually matches existing
documentation.
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=86488
For now, it's systemd itself that parses the options string, but as soon
as util-linux' swapon can take the option string directly with -o we
should pass it on unmodified.
Previous code would only return correct results when discard
was the last option.
While at it, avoid incorrect behaviour for (invalid) 'pri' option
not followed by '=...', and also do not return -1 as the error code.
Instead of adjusting job timeouts in the core, let fstab-generator
write out a dropin snippet with the appropriate JobTimeout.
x-systemd-device.timeout option is removed from Options= line
in the generated unit.
The functions to write dropins are moved from core/unit.c to
shared/dropin.c, to make them available outside of core.
generator.c is moved to libsystemd-label, because it now uses
functions defined in dropin.c, which are in libsystemd-label.
Since these device nodes will never appear in the container anyway
there's no point in waiting for them.
This makes it easier to boot images generated with general purpose
installers like Anaconda which unconditionally populate /etc/fstab to
boot in containers.
- Add support for finding and mounting /srv based on GPT data, similar
to how we already handly /home.
- Share the fsck logic between GPT, EFI and fstab generators
- Make sure we never run the EFI generator inside containers
- Drop DefaultDependencies=no from EFI mount units
- Other fixes
In cryptsetup-generator automatic cleanup had to be replaced
with manual cleanup, and the code gets a bit longer. But existing
code had the issue that it returned negative values from main(),
which was wrong, so should be reworked anyway.
This was noticed in Brussels at the hackfest. The fstab-generator currently
creates a broken symlink pointing to itself in
/run/systemd/generator/local-fs.target.wants/ for systemd-fsck-root.service
This fixes a regression introduced in 64e70e4 where the mount fails
when fstab is misconfigured with fs_passno > 0 on a virtual file
system like nfs, and the type is specified as "auto".
This allows the user to disable fsck's by masking.
If fsck fails, emergency target is started, the user might mount the
unit using mount and disable fsck by masking the unit. In this case,
.mount will be active because the mount is detect through
/proc/self/mountinfo, but systemd-fsck@.service will still be in
failed mode. This results in a funny situation where
$ systemctl show -p ActiveState local-fs.target yyy.mount
ActiveState=active
ActiveState=active
$ sudo systemctl start local-fs.target
[sudo] password for test:
Failed to start local-fs.target: Unit systemd-fsck@xxx.service is masked.
If fstab contains 1 for passno, treat this as an error, but only warn
briefly. If fstab doesn't contain this information, don't complain at
all.
Patch is complicated a bit by the fact that we might have the fstype specified
in fstab or on /proc/cmdline, in which case we can check if we have the appropriate
fsck tool, or not specified, or specified as auto, in which case we have to look
and check the type of the filesystem ourselves. It cannot be done before the
device appears, so it is too early in the generator phase, and it must be done
directly in fsck service.
Instead of individually checking for containers in each user do this
once in a new call proc_cmdline() that read the file only if we are not
in a container.
fsck-root is redundant in case an initrd is used, or in case the rootfs
is never remounted 'rw', so the new default is the correct behavior for
most users. For the rest, they should enable it in fstab.
