Coverity doesn't like the fact that unit_get_cgroup_context() returns NULL for
unit types that don't have a CGroupContext. We don't expect to call those
functions with such unit types, so this isn't an immediate problem, but we can
make things more robust by handling this case.

A service might be able to detect errors by itself that may require the
system to take the same action as if the service locked up. Add a
WATCHDOG=trigger state change notification to sd_notify() to let the
service manager know about the self-detected misery and instantly
trigger the configured watchdog behaviour.
When shooting down a service with SIGABRT the user might want to have a
much longer stop timeout than on regular stops/shutdowns. Especially in
the face of short stop timeouts the time might not be sufficient to
write huge core dumps before the service is killed.
This commit adds a dedicated (Default)TimeoutAbortSec= timer that is
used when stopping a service via SIGABRT. In all other cases the
existing TimeoutStopSec= is used. The timer value is unset by default
to skip the special handling and use TimeoutStopSec= for state
'stop-watchdog' to keep the old behaviour.
If the service is in state 'stop-watchdog' and the service should be
stopped explicitly we still go to 'stop-sigterm' and re-apply the usual
TimeoutStopSec= timeout.
In cgroup v2 we have protection tunables -- currently MemoryLow and
MemoryMin (there will be more in future for other resources, too). The
design of these protection tunables requires not only intermediate
cgroups to propagate protections, but also the units at the leaf of that
resource's operation to accept it (by setting MemoryLow or MemoryMin).
This makes sense from an low-level API design perspective, but it's a
good idea to also have a higher-level abstraction that can, by default,
propagate these resources to children recursively. In this patch, this
happens by having descendants set memory.low to N if their ancestor has
DefaultMemoryLow=N -- assuming they don't set a separate MemoryLow
value.
Any affected unit can opt out of this propagation by manually setting
`MemoryLow` to some value in its unit configuration. A unit can also
stop further propagation by setting `DefaultMemoryLow=` with no
argument. This removes further propagation in the subtree, but has no
effect on the unit itself (for that, use `MemoryLow=0`).
Our use case in production is simplifying the configuration of machines
which heavily rely on memory protection tunables, but currently require
tweaking a huge number of unit files to make that a reality. This
directive makes that significantly less fragile, and decreases the risk
of misconfiguration.
After this patch is merged, I will implement DefaultMemoryMin= using the
same principles.
This was the last kind of accounting still not exposed on for each unit.
Let's fix that.
Note that this is a relatively simplistic approach: we don't expose
per-device stats, but sum them all up, much like cgtop does. This kind
of metric is probably the most interesting for most usecases, and covers
the "systemctl status" output best. If we want per-device stats one day
we can of course always add that eventually.
It's a simple wrapper for resetting both IP and CPU accounting in one
go.
This will become particularly useful when we also needs this to reset IO
accounting (to be added in a later commit).
Unlocked operations are used in all three places. I don't see why just one was
special.
This also improves logging, since we don't just log the final component of the
path, but the full name.
This is partially a refactoring, but also makes many more places use
unlocked operations implicitly, i.e. all users of fopen_temporary().
AFAICT, the uses are always for short-lived files which are not shared
externally, and are just used within the same context. Locking is not
necessary.
This adds a new per-service OOMPolicy= (along with a global
DefaultOOMPolicy=) that controls what to do if a process of the service
is killed by the kernel's OOM killer. It has three different values:
"continue" (old behaviour), "stop" (terminate the service), "kill" (let
the kernel kill all the service's processes).
On top of that, track OOM killer events per unit: generate a per-unit
structured, recognizable log message when we see an OOM killer event,
and put the service in a failure state if an OOM killer event was seen
and the selected policy was not "continue". A new "result" is defined
for this case: "oom-kill".
All of this relies on new cgroupv2 kernel functionality: the
"memory.events" notification interface and the "memory.oom.group"
attribute (which makes the kernel kill all cgroup processes
automatically).
Let's rename the .cgroup_inotify_wd field of the Unit object to
.cgroup_control_inotify_wd. Let's similarly rename the hashmap
.cgroup_inotify_wd_unit of the Manager object to
.cgroup_control_inotify_wd_unit.
Why? As preparation for a later commit that allows us to watch the
"memory.events" cgroup attribute file in addition to the "cgroup.events"
file we already watch with the fields above. In that later commit we'll
add new fields "cgroup_memory_inotify_wd" to Unit and
"cgroup_memory_inotify_wd_unit" to Manager, that are used to watch these
other events file.
No change in behaviour. Just some renaming.
So far the priorities for cgroup empty event handling were pretty weird.
The raw events (on cgroupsv2 from inotify, on cgroupsv1 from the agent
dgram socket) where scheduled at a lower priority than the cgroup empty
queue dispatcher. Let's swap that and ensure that we can coalesce events
more agressively: let's process the raw events at higher priority than
the cgroup empty event (which remains at the same prio).
Use a trivial header file to share mnt_free_tablep and mnt_free_iterp.
It would be nicer put this in mount-util.h, but libmount.h is not in the
default include path, and the build system would have to be adjusted to pass
pkg-config include path in various places, and it's just not worth the trouble.
A separate header file works nicely.
Building on previous commit, let's pass the unit name when parsing
dbus message or builtin whitelist, which is better than nothing.
seccomp_parse_syscall_filter() is not needed anymore, so it is removed,
and seccomp_parse_syscall_filter_full() is renamed to take its place.
Let's be safe, rather than sorry. This way DynamicUser=yes services can
neither take benefit of, nor create SUID/SGID binaries.
Given that DynamicUser= is a recent addition only we should be able to
get away with turning this on, even though this is strictly speaking a
binary compatibility breakage.
Quite often we have a method DoSomethingWithUnit() on the Manager object
that is the same as a function DoSomething() on a Unit object. Let's
shorten things by introducing a common function that forwards the
former to the latter, instead of writing this again and again.
