This remove distro-specific support for early-boot SysV init scripts.
(And leaves support for normal SysV scripts untouched).
If distributions wish to continue to allow early-boot SysV scripts in
their distribution-specific way they should either maintain this patch
downstream manually, or write a generator for them, or simply ship all
those scripts with a .service wrapper.
As it turns out reboot() doesn't actually imply a file system sync, but
only a disk sync. Accordingly, readd explicit sync() invocations
immediately before we invoke reboot().
This is much less dramatic than it might sounds as we umount all
disks/read-only remount them anyway before going down.
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.
This commit checks for a usage line which contains [{|]reload[|}"] (to
not errnously match force-reload).
Heuristics like this suck, but it solves a real problem and there
appears to be no better way...
Use cases:
* iptables.service – atomically reload rules without having to flush
them beforehand (which may leave the system insecure if reload fails)
* rpc-nfsd.service – reexport filesystems after /etc/exports update
without completely stopping and restarting nfsd
(In both cases, the actual service is provided by a kernel module and
does not have any associated user-space processes, thus Type=oneshot.)
Instead of doing hand optimized fd bisect arrays just use plain old
hashmaps. Now I can understand my own code again. Yay!
As a side effect this should fix some bad memory accesses caused by
accesses after mmap(), introduced in 189.
Note: I did s/MANAGER/SYSTEMD/ everywhere, even though it makes the
patch quite verbose. Nevertheless, keeping MANAGER prefix in some
places, and SYSTEMD prefix in others would just lead to confusion down
the road. Better to rip off the band-aid now.
In many cases this might have a negative effect since we drop escaping
from strings where we better shouldn't have dropped it.
If unescaping makes sense for some settings we can readd it later again,
on a per-case basis.

In some cases, like wrong configuration, restarting after error
does not help, so administrator can specify statuses by RestartPreventExitStatus
which will not cause restart of a service.
Sometimes you have non-standart exit status, so this can be specified
by SuccessfulExitStatus.
There is no point in clearing the bits of a "struct stat" when the very
next statement just calls stat or fstat to fill in that same memory.
[zj: two more places]
It made no sense, and since we are documenting the bus calls now and
want to include them in our stability promise we really should get it
cleaned up sooner, not later.
When an automatic restart is already queued, then make subsequent start
jobs wait until the restart can be handled (i.e. after the holdhoff
time), instead of simply fail.
all other dependencies are in 3rd person. Change BindTo= accordingly to
BindsTo=.
Of course, the dependency is widely used, hence we parse the old name
too for compatibility.
With misconfigured mysql, which uses Restart=always, the following two
messages would loop indefinitely and the "systemctl start" would never
finish:
Job pending for unit, delaying automatic restart.
mysqld.service holdoff time over, scheduling restart.
In service_enter_dead() always set the state to SERVICE_FAILED/DEAD first
before setting SERVICE_AUTO_RESTART. This is to allow running jobs to
complete. OnFailure will be also triggered at this point, so there's no
need to do it again from service_stop() (where it was added in commit
f0c7b229).
Note that OnFailure units should better trigger only after giving up
auto-restarting, but that's for another patch to solve.

This option never made much sense. It was originally intended to make
sure that the usual startup output of sysv scripts goes to the terminal.
However, since SysV scripts started from a terminal would not output to
that terminal, but rather /dev/console this effect was more often than
not actually taking place. Nowadays systemd has much nicer boot time
status output than SysV which makes the sysv output redundant. Finally,
all output of services goes to the journal anyway, and is not lost.
Hence, let's drop this option, and simplify things a bit.
As described in
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=50184
the journal currently doesn't set fields such as _SYSTEMD_UNIT
properly for messages coming from processes that have already
terminated. This means among other things that "systemctl status" may
not show some of the output of services that wrote messages just
before they exited.
This patch fixes this by having processes that log to the journal
write their unit identifier to journald when the connection to
/run/systemd/journal/stdout is opened. Journald stores the unit ID
and uses it to fill in _SYSTEMD_UNIT when it cannot be obtained
normally (i.e. from the cgroup). To prevent impersonating another
unit, this information is only used when the caller is root.
This doesn't fix the general problem of getting metadata about
messages from terminated processes (which requires some kernel
support), but it allows "systemctl status" and similar queries to do
the Right Thing for units that log via stdout/stderr.
We want to avoid a deadlock when a service has ExecStartPre= programs
that wait for the job queue to run empty because of Type=idle, but which
themselves keep the queue non-empty because START_PRE was considered
ACTIVATING and hence the job not complete. With this patch we alter the
state translation table so that it is impossible ever to wait for
Type=idle unit, hence removing the deadlock.
UnitPath= is also writable via native units and may be used by generators
to clarify from which file a unit is generated. This patch also hooks up
the cryptsetup and fstab generators to set UnitPath= accordingly.
When service_stop() handles a service in the SERVICE_AUTO_RESTART state,
it calls service_set_state() to transition it to the SERVICE_DEAD state.
However if the service failed, it should transition it to SERVICE_FAILED
instead, which will trigger its OnFailure units. To achieve this, we now
call service_enter_dead() in place of service_set_state(), which will
transition the service to either SERVICE_DEAD or SERVICE_FAILED as is
appropriate.
Also, some misleading comments are adjusted: service_stop() is not only
called on a user request, but also during an automatic restart in order
to handle dependencies.

Instead of generic "Starting..." and "Started" messages for all unit use
type-dependent messages. For example, mounts will announce "Mounting..."
and "Mounted".
Add status messages to units of types that used to be entirely silent
(automounts, sockets, targets, devices). For unit types whose jobs are
instantaneous, report only the job completion, not the starting event.
Socket units with non-instantaneous jobs are rare (Exec*= is not used
often in socket units), so I chose not to print the starting messages
for them either.
This will hopefully give people better understanding of the boot.
The kernel will only notify us of cgroups running empty if no subcgroups
exist anymore. Hence make sure we don't leave our own control/ subcgroup
around longer than necessary.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=818381
Type=idle is much like Type=simple, however between the fork() and the
exec() in the child we wait until PID 1 informs us that no jobs are
left.
This is mostly a cosmetic fix to make gettys appear only after all boot
output is finished and complete.
Note that this does not impact the normal job logic as we do not delay
the completion of any jobs. We just delay the invocation of the actual
binary, and only for services that otherwise would be of Type=simple.
Previously, we were brutally and onconditionally killing all processes
in a service's cgroup before starting the service anew, in order to
ensure that StartPre lines cannot be misused to spawn long-running
processes.
On logind-less systems this has the effect that restarting sshd
necessarily calls all active ssh sessions, which is usually not
desirable.
With this patch control processes for a service are placed in a
sub-cgroup called "control/". When starting a service anew we simply
kill this cgroup, but not the main cgroup, in order to avoid killing any
long-running non-control processes from previous runs.

We finally got the OK from all contributors with non-trivial commits to
relicense systemd from GPL2+ to LGPL2.1+.
Some udev bits continue to be GPL2+ for now, but we are looking into
relicensing them too, to allow free copy/paste of all code within
systemd.
The bits that used to be MIT continue to be MIT.
The big benefit of the relicensing is that closed source code may now
link against libsystemd-login.so and friends.
