In order to make containers work nicely out of the box it is highly
desirable to have the mount propagation mode for the root fs is set as
"shared" by default so that containers receive system mounts by default.
(See mount --make-shared for more information).
As it is unlikely that the kernel will change the default to "shared"
for this, do this early at boot-up from PID 1. Setups which prefer the
default of "private" should undo this change via invoking "mount
--make-private /" or a similar command after boot.
In the long run /etc/fstab should take the propagation mode as a mount
option like any other, so that this may be used to change the default
mode. However, if fstab is not around or doesn't list / we still should
default to shared as propagation mode, hence this change now.
Adds messages for formally silent errors: new "Failed on cmdline argument %s: %s".
Removes some specific error messages for -ENOMEM in mount-setup.c. A few specific
ones have been left in other binaries.
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.
sd-readahead.h is supposed to be a drop-in API, nothing people should
ever link to or could make use without also adding sd-readahead.c to
their sources. Hence, don't install this header file into INCLUDES, but
instead install it as DOCS.
There's now sd_journal_new_directory() for watching specific journal
directories. This is exposed in journalctl -D.
sd_journal_wait() and sd_journal_process() now return whether changes in
the journal are invalidating or just appending.
We now create inotify kernel watches only when we actually need them
This naming convention is more inline with other systemd daemon
unit names (systemd-logind.service, systemd-localed.service etc)
The companion .socket units have also been renamed, however the
-trigger and -settle units keep their current name as these are
not directly related to daemon process itself.
sd_notify() should work for daemons that chroot() as part of their
initilization, hence it's a good idea to use an abstract namespace
socket which is not affected by chroot.
This replaces the symlink based dependency by an explicit one in the
unit file so that we avoid the dangling symlink when no display manager
is installed.
This adds a timeout if the TTY cannot be acquired and makes sure we
always output the question to the console, never to the TTY of the
respective service.
Names= is a source of errors, simply because alias names specified like
this only become relevant after a unit has been loaded but cannot be
used to load a unit.
Let's get rid of the confusion and drop this field. To establish alias
names peope should use symlinks, which have the the benefit of being
useful as key to load a unit, even though they are not taken into
account if unit names are listed but they haven't been explicitly
referenced before.
People should use systemd.pc if anything at all to determine these
directories, and people should not assume that the bus fields are part
of the supported API, so let's just drop this.
This makes sure that
systemctl status /home
is implicitly translated to:
systemctl status /home.mount
Similar, /dev/foobar becomes dev-foobar.device.
Also, all characters that cannot be part of a unit name are implicitly
escaped.
since the binaries share much of the same code and we better load only
one binary instead of two from disk at early boot let's merge the three
readahead binaries into one. This also allows us to drop a lot of
duplicated code.
Let's try to standardize a bit the RPM macros used for
installing/uninstalling services.
This only covers the non-SysV compat bits, since that tends to vary
widely between the various distros.
Usage:
Add %{?systemd_requires} to the header of the spec file. And then:
%post
%systemd_post foobar.service
%preun
%systemd_preun foobar.service
%postun
%systemd_postun foobar.service
And, instead of the latter, in case the service shall be restarted on updates:
%postun
%systemd_postun_restart foobar.service
online = logged in
active = logged in and session is in the fg
closing = nominally logged out but some left-over processes still around

Since we boot so fast now that gdm might get started before the
graphics drivers are properly loaded and probed we might end up
announcing seat0 to gdm before it has graphics capabilities. Which will
cause gdm/X11 cause to fail later on.
To fix this race, let's expose CanGraphical and CanTTY fields on all
seats, which clarify whether a seat is suitable for gdm resp, suitable
for text logins. gdm then needs to watch CanGraphical and spawn X11 on
it only if it is true.
This way:
USB graphics seats will expose CanGraphical=yes, CanTTY=no
Machines with no graphics drivers at all, but a text console:
CanGraphical=no, CanTTY=yes
Machines with CONFIG_VT turned off: CanGraphical=yes, CanTTY=no
And the most important case: seat0 where the graphics driver has not
been probed yet boot up with CanGraphical=no, CanTTY=yes first, which
then changes to CanGraphical=yes as soon as the probing is complete.
