Write a user unit's invocation ID to /run/user/<uid>/systemd/units/ similar
to how a system unit's invocation ID is written to /run/systemd/units/.
This lets the journal read and add a user unit's invocation ID to the
_SYSTEMD_INVOCATION_ID field of logs instead of the user manager's
invocation ID.
Fixes#12474
This cleans up and unifies the outut of --help texts a bit:
1. Highlight the human friendly description string, not the command
line via ANSI sequences. Previously both this description string and
the brief command line summary was marked with the same ANSI
highlight sequence, but given we auto-page to less and less does not
honour multi-line highlights only the command line summary was
affectively highlighted. Rationale: for highlighting the description
instead of the command line: the command line summary is relatively
boring, and mostly the same for out tools, the description on the
other hand is pregnant, important and captions the whole thing and
hence deserves highlighting.
2. Always suffix "Options" with ":" in the help text
3. Rename "Flags" → "Options" in one case
4. Move commands to the top in a few cases
5. add coloring to many more help pages
6. Unify on COMMAND instead of {COMMAND} in the command line summary.
Some tools did it one way, others the other way. I am not sure what
precisely {} is supposed to mean, that uppercasing doesn't, hence
let's simplify and stick to the {}-less syntax
And minor other tweaks.
For some unrelated stuff I wanted the machine ID in UUID format, and it
was annoying doing that manually. So let's add a switch for this, so
that this works:
systemd-id128 machine-id -u
journald assumes that getsockopt(SO_PEERCRED) correctly identifies the
process on the remote end of the socket. However, this is incorrect
according to man 7 socket:
The returned credentials are those that were in effect at the
time of the call to connect(2) or socketpair(2).
This becomes a problem when a new process inherits the stdout stream
from a parent. First, log messages from the child process will
be attributed to the parent. Second, the struct ucred used by journald
becomes invalid as soon as the parent exits. Further sendmsg calls then
fail with ENOENT. Logs for the child process then vanish from the journal.
Fix this by using recvmsg on the stdout stream, and refreshing the cached
struct ucred if SCM_CREDENTIALS indicate a new process.
Fixes#13708
Right now the `systemd-journal-remote` service does not constrain its
resource usage (I just run out of space on my 100GB partition, for
example). This patch does not change that, but it at least makes it
possible to run something like:
journalctl --directory /var/log/journal/remote --rotate --vacuum-size=90G

chase_symlinks() would return negative on error, and either a non-negative status
or a non-negative fd when CHASE_OPEN was given. This made the interface quite
complicated, because dependning on the flags used, we would get two different
"types" of return object. Coverity was always confused by this, and flagged
every use of chase_symlinks() without CHASE_OPEN as a resource leak (because it
would this that an fd is returned). This patch uses a saparate output parameter,
so there is no confusion.
(I think it is OK to have functions which return either an error or an fd. It's
only returning *either* an fd or a non-fd that is confusing.)
"ratelimit" is a real word, so we don't need to use the other form anywhere.
We had both forms in various places, let's standarize on the shorter and more
correct one.
The use of an unordered hashmap means that the output of
'journalctl --update-catalog' differs between runs despite there being no
changes in the input files.
By changing all instances of Hashmap to OrderedHashmap we fix this, and now
the catalog is reproducible.

journalctl --unit= already did this, and allows you to tail all the logs
for a certain slice easily. It seemed only natural to make --user-unit
behave in a similar way.
The _SYSTEMD_USER_SLICE field was not documented as being added by
journald, so I have added that to the documentation too.
Furthermore, I have documented the existing behaviour of --unit= and the
new behaviour of --user-unit=
The behaviour was actually not documented before, so I am also OK with
removing the match for the --unit= command instead. The user would then
have to manually provide _SYSTEMD_SLICE= filter to journalctl in both
cases. Both options work for me.

It's hard to say what is going on here without any error messages whatsoever.
The test goes into deep details of journal file handling, so it needs to also
do logging on its own.

> /dev/mapper/live-rw 6.4G 5.7G 648M 91% /
> systemd-journald[905]: Fixed min_use=1.0M max_use=648.7M max_size=81.0M min_size=512.0K keep_free=973.1M n_max_files=100
When journald is started, we pick keep_free as 15% of the disk size. When the
fs is almost filled, we will only keep one journal file around and rotate very
often (because min_size is very small).
Let's set min use to something reasonable, so that we get more useful logs that
will cover at least the full boot.
Some cases considered in the PR:
> /dev/mapper/live-rw 6.4G 5.7G 648M 91% /
keep_free→MIN(327,100)→100 MB.
min_use→16MB.
effective range: 16 MB – 548 MB
> /dev/mapper/fedora_krowka-root 78G 69G 5.7G 93% /
keep_free → MIN(4GB, 100MB)→100MB
min_use→16MB
effective range: 16 MB – 5.6 GB
(but then there's the max_use limit, which cuts the range down)
> 4TB, 4GB free
keep_free → MIN(209715, 100) → 100 MB
min_use→16MB
effective range: 16 MB – 4.9 GB
(also effectively limited by max_use)
Also replace unneeded width suffixes with spaces, I think this is more
readable, and drop DEFAULT_ prefixes in cases where this setting is
simply a bound, and cannot be overridden by user config, hence is not
a default.
Not everybody has those dirs in the filesystem (and they don't need to).
When creating an installation package using $DESTDIR, it is easy enough to
remove or ignore those directories, but if installing into a real root, it
is ugly to create and remove them. Let's add an option so people can skip
it if they want.
Inspired by #12930.
