This effectively makes little difference because we exit soon later
anyway, which will close the fds, too. However, it's still useful since
it means the parent will get EOF events on them in the order we process
things and isn't delayed to process the data from the pipes until the
child dies.
Let's use a proper table for outputting partition information. Let's
also put the general information about the image first, and the table
after that.
Moreover, dissect the image before showing any output, so that we can
early on return an error if the image is not valid.
That way we can turn off kernel partition scanning if verity data is
available (as we don't support verity for full GPT images, only for
simple file system images).
LOOP_CONFIGURE allows us to configure a loopback device in one ioctl
instead of two, which is not just faster but also removes the race that
udev might start probing the device before we adjusted things properly.
Unfortunately LOOP_CONFIGURE is broken in regards to LO_FLAGS_PARTSCAN
as of kernel 5.8.0. This patch contains a work-around for that, to
fallback to old behaviour if partition scanning is requested but does
not work. Sucks a bit.
Proposed upstream fix for that issue:

The machine-id is used to create a few directories and setup a default
loader entry in loader.conf. Having bootctl create the directories
itself is not particularly useful as it does not put anything in them
and bootctl install is not guaranteed to be called before an initramfs
tool like kernel-install so other programs will always need to have
logic to create the directories themselves if they happen to be called
before bootctl install is called.
On top of this, when using unified kernel images, these are installed to
$BOOT/EFI/Linux which removes the need to have the directories created
by bootctl at all. This further indicates that these directories should
be created by the program that puts something in them rather than by
bootctl.
Removing the machine-id dependency allows bootctl install to be called
even when there's no machine-id in the image. This is useful for image
builders such as mkosi which don't have a machine-id when
installing systemd-boot (via bootctl) because it should only be
generated by systemd when the final image is booted.
The default entry in loader.conf based on the machine-id in loader.conf
is also removed which shouldn't be a massive loss in usability overall.
This commit reverts commit 341890d.
Let's fix up invalid GECOS fields both when we convert from NSS to JSON
and the other way round.
Kinda sucks we have to do that, but NSS does it when writing data to
/etc/passwd, so let's do the same.
Fixes: #16668
This should make /home as automount work reasonably well.
If /home is an automount this has little effect at boot, because if the
automount is not triggered it doesn't matter how the associated mount is
ordered.
It does matter at shutdown however, where home.mount is likely active
now. There the ordering means we'll end sessions first, and only then
deactivate home.mount.
Fixes: #16291
User records have the realname/gecos fields, groups never had that, but
it would really be useful to have it, hence let's add it with similar
semantics.
We enforce the same syntax as for GECOS, since it's better to start with
strict rules and losen them later instead of the opposite.
The commit 1070d271fa which was supposed
too fix this does not seem to take effect any more. We get again 34%
compilation success rate while scanning systemd itself. Moreover, the
installed header file breaks compilation of programs that include it:
"/usr/include/systemd/_sd-common.h", line 23: error #35: #error directive: "Do
not include _sd-common.h directly; it is a private header."
# error "Do not include _sd-common.h directly; it is a private header."

Follows the same pattern and features as RootImage, but allows an
arbitrary mount point under / to be specified by the user, and
multiple values - like BindPaths.
Original implementation by @topimiettinen at:
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/14451
Reworked to use dissect's logic instead of bare libmount() calls
and other review comments.
Thanks Topi for the initial work to come up with and implement
this useful feature.
Given a string in the format 'one:two three four:five', returns a string
vector with each word. If the second element of the tuple is not
present, an empty string is returned in its place, so that the vector
can be processed in pairs.
[zjs: use EXTRACT_UNESCAPE_SEPARATORS instead of EXTRACT_CUNESCAPE_RELAX.
This way we do escaping exactly once and in normal strict mode.]
