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.
Absolute paths make everything simple and quick, but sometimes this requirement
can be annoying. A good example is calling 'test', which will be located in
/usr/bin/ or /bin depending on the distro. The need the provide the full path
makes it harder a portable unit file in such cases.
This patch uses a fixed search path (DEFAULT_PATH which was already used as the
default value of $PATH), and if a non-absolute file name is found, it is
immediately resolved to a full path using this search path when the unit is
loaded. After that, everything behaves as if an absolute path was specified. In
particular, the executable must exist when the unit is loaded.
Doing manager_load_unit() followed by UNIT_VTABLE(unit)->start(unit) would
result in an assertion failure in ->start() if the unit failed to load
properly. Something like this is okey-ish is tests, since the test units are
not expected to fail to load, but the reason for failure is clearer if we
fail immediately.
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.
Also fix one case where the presence of a newline was used to generate
an invalid environment assignment.
Tested: with mkosi, which builds the local tree and run ninja tests.
When running tests like test-unit-name, there is not point in setting
up the cgroup and signals and interacting with the environment. Similarly
when running fuzz testing of the parser.
Add new MANAGER_TEST_RUN_BASIC which takes the role of MANAGER_TEST_RUN_MINIMAL,
and redefine MANAGER_TEST_RUN_MINIMAL to just create the basic data structures.
The unit files for test-execute are named like
`exec-(setting-name-in-lower-character)-(optional-text).service`.
However, test units for AmbientCapabilities= are not following this.
So, let's rename them for the consistency.
This does not change anything in the functionality of the test.
The nobody user/group may not synthesized by systemd.
To run tests the functionalities in such situation, this adds tests
by user/group by daemon, as it is expected to exists all environments.
Several tests request nobody user or group. If they are badly
configured, then tests may fail.
This makes test-execute check nobody user and group are configured
correctly before running such tests.
Fixes#8276.
We currently look for "nobody" and "nfsnobody" when testing groups, both
of which do not exist on Ubuntu, our main testing environment. Let's
extend the tests slightly to also use "nogroup" if it exists.
