Possibly fixes#15220. (There might be another leak. I'm still investigating.)
The leak would occur when the path cache was rebuilt. So in normal circumstances
it wouldn't be too bad, since usually the path cache is not rebuilt too often. But
the case in #15220, where new unit files are created in a loop and started, the leak
occurs once for each unit file:
$ for i in {1..300}; do cp ~/.config/systemd/user/test0001.service ~/.config/systemd/user/test$(printf %04d $i).service; systemctl --user start test$(printf %04d $i).service;done
If we're using a set with _put_strdup(), most of the time we want to use
string hash ops on the set, and free the strings when done. This defines
the appropriate a new string_hash_ops_free structure to automatically free
the keys when removing the set, and makes set_put_strdup() and set_put_strdupv()
instantiate the set with those hash ops.
hashmap_put_strdup() was already doing something similar.
(It is OK to instantiate the set earlier, possibly with a different hash ops
structure. set_put_strdup() will then use the existing set. It is also OK
to call set_free_free() instead of set_free() on a set with
string_hash_ops_free, the effect is the same, we're just overriding the
override of the cleanup function.)
No functional change intended.
$ systemctl --no-pager --root /tmp/root2/ cat ctrl-alt-del.target
Failed to resolve symlink /tmp/root2/etc/systemd/system/ctrl-alt-del.target pointing to /usr/lib/systemd/system/reboot.target, ignoring: Channel number out of range
...
If we have a template unit template@.service, it should be allowed to specify a
dependency on a unit without an instance, bar@.service. When the unit is created,
the instance will be propagated into the target, so template@inst.service will
depend on bar@inst.service.
This commit changes unit_dependency_name_compatible(), which makes the manager
accept links like that, and unit_file_verify_alias(), so that the installation
function will agree to create a symlink like that, and finally the tests are
adjusted to pass.
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.)
As documented in the man-page, readdir() may return a directory entry with
d_type == DT_UNKNOWN. This must be handled for regular filesystems.
dirent_ensure_type() is available to set d_type if necessary. Use it in
some more places.
Without this systemd will fail to boot correctly with nfsroot and some
other filesystems.
Closes#13609
It if of course related to /proc/cmdline parsing, but is higher-level
functionality built on top of it. It should be in shared/ because it
is something to be used by pid1 and related utilities, not something for
level-level libraries.
I assumed that unit_name_to_instnace() returns NULL if there is no instance.
In fact it returns "", so the check for instance was wrong.
Also avoid unnecessary call to unit_name_is_valid().
v2:
- do not watch mtime of transient and generated dirs
We'd reload the map after every transient unit we created, which we don't
need to do, since we create those units ourselves and know their fragment
path.
This reworks how we load units from disk. Instead of chasing symlinks every
time we are asked to load a unit by name, we slurp all symlinks from disk
and build two hashmaps:
1. from unit name to either alias target, or fragment on disk
(if an alias, we put just the target name in the hashmap, if a fragment
we put an absolute path, so we can distinguish both).
2. from a unit name to all aliases
Reading all this data can be pretty costly (40 ms) on my machine, so we keep it
around for reuse.
The advantage is that we can reliably know what all the aliases of a given unit
are. This means we can reliably load dropins under all names. This fixes#11972.
It turns out most possible symlinks are invalid, because the type has to match,
and template units can only be linked to template units.
I'm not sure if the existing code made the same checks consistently. At least
I don't see the same rules expressed in a single place.
