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.
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.
Some PIDs can remain in the watched list even though their processes have
exited since a long time. It can easily happen if the main process of a forking
service manages to spawn a child before the control process exits for example.
However when a pid is about to be mapped to a unit by calling unit_watch_pid(),
the caller usually knows if the pid should belong to this unit exclusively: if
we just forked() off a child, then we can be sure that its PID is otherwise
unused. In this case we take this opportunity to remove any stalled PIDs from
the watched process list.
If we learnt about a PID in any other form (for example via PID file, via
searching, MAINPID= and so on), then we can't assume anything.
Just some renaming, no change in behaviour.
Background: I'd like to add more functions unit_test_xyz() that test
various things, hence let's streamline the naming a bit.
KillMode=mixed and control group are used to indicate that all
process should be killed off. SendSIGKILL is used for services
that require a clean shutdown. These are typically database
service where a SigKilled process would result in a lengthy
recovery and who's shutdown or startup time is quite variable
(so Timeout settings aren't of use).
Here we take these two factors and refuse to start a service if
there are existing processes within a control group. Databases,
while generally having some protection against multiple instances
running, lets not stress the rigor of these. Also ExecStartPre
parts of the service aren't as rigoriously written to protect
against against multiple use.

Nitpicky, but we've used a lot of random spacings and names in the past,
but we're trying to be completely consistent on "cgroup vN" now.
Generated by `fd -0 | xargs -0 -n1 sed -ri --follow-symlinks 's/cgroups? ?v?([0-9])/cgroup v\1/gI'`.
I manually ignored places where it's not appropriate to replace (eg.
"cgroup2" fstype and in src/shared/linux).
It would be very wrong if any of the specfier printf calls modified
any of the objects or data being printed. Let's mark all arguments as const
(primarily to make it easier for the reader to see where modifications cannot
occur).
This adds SuccessActionExitStatus= and FailureActionExitStatus= that may
be used to configure the exit status to propagate in when
SuccessAction=exit or FailureAction=exit is used.
When not specified let's also propagate the exit status of the main
process we fork off for the unit.
Previously we tried to be smart: when a new unit appeared and it only
added controllers to the cgroup mask we'd update the cached members mask
in all parents by ORing in the controller flags in their cached values.
Unfortunately this was quite broken, as we missed some conditions when
this cache had to be reset (for example, when a unit got unloaded),
moreover the optimization doesn't work when a controller is removed
anyway (as in that case there's no other way for the parent to iterate
though all children if any other, remaining child unit still needs it).
Hence, let's simplify the logic substantially: instead of updating the
cache on the right events (which we didn't get right), let's simply
invalidate the cache, and generate it lazily when we encounter it later.
This should actually result in better behaviour as we don't have to
calculate the new members mask for a whole subtree whever we have the
suspicion something changed, but can delay it to the point where we
actually need the members mask.
This allows us to simplify things quite a bit, which is good, since
validating this cache for correctness is hard enough.

This call is only used by job.c and very specific to job handling.
Moreover the very similar logic of job_emit_status_message() is already
in job.c.
Hence, let's clean this up, and move both sets of functions to job.c,
and rename them a bit so that they express precisely what they do:
1. unit_status_emit_starting_stopping_reloading() →
job_emit_begin_status_message()
2. job_emit_status_message() → job_emit_done_status_message()
The first call is after all what we call when we begin with the
execution of a job, and the second call what we call when we are done
wiht it.
Just some moving and renaming, not other changes, and hence no change in
behaviour.
Behaviour is prett ymuch the same, but there's some additional type
checking done on the input parameters.
(In the case of UNIT_WRITE_FLAGS_NOOP() the C compiler won't actually do
the type checking necessarily, but static chckers at least could)
This splits the "environment" field of Manager into two:
transient_environment and client_environment. The former is generated
from configuration file, kernel cmdline, environment generators. The
latter is the one the user can control with "systemctl set-environment"
and similar.
Both sets are merged transparently whenever needed. Separating the two
sets has the benefit that we can safely flush out the former while
keeping the latter during daemon reload cycles, so that env var settings
from env generators or configuration files do not accumulate, but
dynamic API changes are kept around.
Note that this change is not entirely transparent to users: if the user
first uses "set-environment" to override a transient variable, and then
uses "unset-environment" to unset it again things will revert to the
original transient variable now, while previously the variable was fully
removed. This change in behaviour should not matter too much though I
figure.

Let's be more careful with what we serialize: let's ensure we never
serialize strings that are longer than LONG_LINE_MAX, so that we know we
can read them back with read_line(…, LONG_LINE_MAX, …) safely.
In order to implement this all serialization functions are move to
serialize.[ch], and internally will do line size checks. We'd rather
skip a serialization line (with a loud warning) than write an overly
long line out. Of course, this is just a second level protection, after
all the data we serialize shouldn't be this long in the first place.
While we are at it also clean up logging: while serializing make sure to
always log about errors immediately. Also, (void)ify all calls we don't
expect errors in (or catch errors as part of the general
fflush_and_check() at the end.
This should be much better than fgets(), as we can read substantially
longer lines and overly long lines result in proper errors.

LP: #1796402https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1639071
Add LogRateLimitIntervalSec= and LogRateLimitBurst= options for
services. If provided, these values get passed to the journald
client context, and those values are used in the rate limiting
function in the journal over the the journald.conf values.
Part of #10230
Cgroup v2 provides the eBPF-based device controller, which isn't currently
supported by systemd. This commit aims to provide such support.
There are no user-visible changes, just the device policy and whitelist
start working if cgroup v2 is used.
Allows configuring the watchdog signal (with a default of SIGABRT).
This allows an alternative to SIGABRT when coredumps are not desirable.
Appropriate references to SIGABRT or aborting were renamed to reflect
more liberal watchdog signals.
Closes#8658
Previously, we'd act immediately on StopWhenUnneeded= when a unit state
changes. With this rework we'll maintain a queue instead: whenever
there's the chance that StopWhenUneeded= might have an effect we enqueue
the unit, and process it later when we have nothing better to do.
This should make the implementation a bit more reliable, as the unit notify event
cannot immediately enqueue tons of side-effect jobs that might
contradict each other, but we do so only in a strictly ordered fashion,
from the main event loop.
This slightly changes the check when to consider a unit "unneeded".
Previously, we'd assume that a unit in "deactivating" state could also
be cleaned up. With this new logic we'll only consider units unneeded
that are fully up and have no job queued. This means that whenever
there's something pending for a unit we won't clean it up.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Let's always write "1 << 0", "1 << 1" and so on, except where we need
more than 31 flag bits, where we write "UINT64(1) << 0", and so on to force
64bit values.
Previously the enumerate() callback defined for each unit type would do
two things:
1. It would create perpetual units (i.e. -.slice, system.slice, -.mount and
init.scope)
2. It would enumerate units from /proc/self/mountinfo, /proc/swaps and
the udev database
With this change these two parts are split into two seperate methods:
enumerate() now only does #2, while enumerate_perpetual() is responsible
for #1. Why make this change? Well, perpetual units should have a
slightly different effect that those found through enumeration: as
perpetual units should be up unconditionally, perpetually and thus never
change state, they should also not pull in deps by their state changing,
not even when the state is first set to active. Thus, their state is
generally initialized through the per-device coldplug() method in
similar fashion to the deserialized state from a previous run would be
put into place. OTOH units found through regular enumeration should
result in state changes (and thus pull in deps due to state changes),
hence their state should be put in effect in the catchup() method
instead. Hence, given this difference, let's also separate the
functions, so that the rule is:
1. What is created in enumerate_perpetual() should be started in
coldplug()
2. What is created in enumerate() should be started in catchup().
This is very similar to the existing unit method coldplug() but is
called a bit later. The idea is that that coldplug() restores the unit
state from before any prior reload/restart, i.e. puts the deserialized
state in effect. The catchup() call is then called a bit later, to
catch up with the system state for which we missed notifications while
we were reloading. This is only really useful for mount, swap and device
mount points were we should be careful to generate all missing unit
state change events (i.e. call unit_notify() appropriately) for
everything that happened while we were reloading.
This reworks how systemd tracks processes on cgroupv1 systems where
cgroup notification is not reliable. Previously, whenever we had reason
to believe that new processes showed up or got removed we'd scan the
cgroup of the scope or service unit for new processes, and would tidy up
the list of PIDs previously watched. This scanning is relatively slow,
and does not scale well. With this change behaviour is changed: instead
of scanning for new/removed processes right away we do this work in a
per-unit deferred event loop job. This event source is scheduled at a
very low priority, so that it is executed when we have time but does not
starve other event sources. This has two benefits: this expensive work is
coalesced, if events happen in quick succession, and we won't delay
SIGCHLD handling for too long.
This patch basically replaces all direct invocation of
unit_watch_all_pids() in scope.c and service.c with invocations of the
new unit_enqueue_rewatch_pids() call which just enqueues a request of
watching/tidying up the PID sets (with one exception: in
scope_enter_signal() and service_enter_signal() we'll still do
unit_watch_all_pids() synchronously first, since we really want to know
all processes we are about to kill so that we can track them properly.
Moreover, all direct invocations of unit_tidy_watch_pids() and
unit_synthesize_cgroup_empty_event() are removed too, when the
unit_enqueue_rewatch_pids() call is invoked, as the queued job will run
those operations too.
All of this is done on cgroupsv1 systems only, and is disabled on
cgroupsv2 systems as cgroup-empty notifications are reliable there, and
we do not need SIGCHLD events to track processes there.
Fixes: #9138
This adds a flags parameter to unit_notify() which can be used to pass
additional notification information to the function. We the make the old
reload_failure boolean parameter one of these flags, and then add a new
flag that let's unit_notify() if we are configured to restart the
service.
Note that this adjusts behaviour of systemd to match what the docs say.
Fixes: #8398
Scope units are populated from PIDs specified by the bus client. We do
that when a scope is started. We really shouldn't allow scopes to be
started multiple times, as the PIDs then might be heavily out of date.
Moreover, clients should have the guarantee that any scope they allocate
has a clear runtime cycle which is not repetitive.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
Currently we add target dependencies while we are loading units. This
can create ordering loops even if configuration doesn't contain any
loop. Take for example following configuration,
$ systemctl get-default
multi-user.target
$ cat /etc/systemd/system/test.service
[Unit]
After=default.target
[Service]
ExecStart=/bin/true
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
If we encounter such unit file early during manager start-up (e.g. load
queue is dispatched while enumerating devices due to SYSTEMD_WANTS in
udev rules) we would add stub unit default.target and we order it Before
test.service. At the same time we add implicit Before to
multi-user.target. Later we merge two units and we create ordering cycle
in the process.
To fix the issue we will now never add any target dependencies until we
loaded all the unit files and resolved all the aliases.
