In principle SysV stuff is only for compatibility, but we are stuck
with it for the forseeable future, so documentation might as well
be provided.

- Rename log_meta() → log_internal(), to follow naming scheme of most
other log functions that are usually invoked through macros, but never
directly.
- Rename log_info_object() to log_object_info(), simply because the
object should be before any other parameters, to follow OO-style
programming style.
This change has two benefits:
- The format string %m will now resolve to the specified error (or to
errno if the specified error is 0. This allows getting rid of a ton of
strerror() invocations, a function that is not thread-safe.
- The specified error can be passed to the journal in the ERRNO= field.
Now of course, we just need somebody to convert all cases of this:
log_error("Something happened: %s", strerror(-r));
into thus:
log_error_errno(-r, "Something happened: %m");
- actually return permission errors to clients
- use the right ucreds field
- fix error paths when we cannot keep track of locally acquired names
due to OOM
- avoid unnecessary global variables
- log when the policy denies access
- enforce correct policy rule order
- always request all the metadata its we need to make decisions
We got the following error when running systemd on a device with many ports:
"rtnl: kernel receive buffer overrun
Event source 'rtnl-receive-message' returned error, disabling: No buffer space
available"
I think the kernel socket receive buffer queue should be increased. The default
value is taken from:
"/proc/sys/net/core/rmem_default", but we can overwrite it using SO_RCVBUF
socket option.
This is already done in networkd for other sockets.
For example, the bus socket (sd-bus/bus-socket.c) has a receive queue of 8MB.
In our case, the default is 208KB.
Increasing the buffer receive queue for manager socket to 512KB should be enough
to get rid of the above error.
[tomegun: bump the limit even higher to 8M]
TXT records should have at least one character, so enforce this.
Before 0f84a72 parser SIGSEGV'd on ->txt.strings being NULL, but
even if this is fixed we should reject invalid TXT records.
Loops in RR compression were only detected for the first entry.
Multiple redirections should be allowed, each one checking for an
infinite loop on its own starting point.
Also update the pointer on each redirection to avoid longer loops of
labels and redirections, in names like:
(start) [len=1] "A", [ptr to start]
(David: rename variable to "jump_barrier" and add reference to RFC)
The previous fix e0312f4db "core: fix check for transaction
destructiveness" broke test-engine (noticed by Zbyszek).
Apparently I had a wrong idea of the intended semantics of --fail.
The manpage says the operation should fail if it "conflicts with a
pending job (more specifically: causes an already pending start job to
be reversed into a stop job or vice versa)".
So let's check job_type_is_conflicting, instead of !is_superset.
This makes both test-engine and TEST-03-JOBS pass again.
A strv might be NULL if it is empty. The txt.strings comparison doesn't
take that into account. Introduce strv_equal() to provide a proper helper
for this and fix resolve to use it.
Thanks to Stanisław Pitucha <viraptor@gmail.com> for reporting this!
The kdbus module will later get a policy that endpoint-names are
restricted to "<uid>-<name>" just like bus-names. Make sure that systemd
is already compatible to that.
Pointer acceleration for relative input devices (mice, trackballs, etc.)
applies to the deltas of the device. Alas, those deltas have no physical
reference point - a delta of 10 may be caused by a large movement of a
low-dpi mouse or by a minute movement of a high-dpi mouse.
Which makes pointer acceleration a bit useless and high-dpi devices
essentially unusable.
In an ideal world, we could read the DPI from the device directly and work
with that. In the world we actually live in, we need to compile this list
manually. This patch introduces the database, with the usual match formats
and a single property to be set on a device: MOUSE_DPI
That is either a single value for most mice, or a list of values for mice
that can change resolution at runtime. The exact format is detailed in the
hwdb file.
Note that we're explicitly overshooting the requirements we have for
libinput atm. Frequency could be detected in software and we don't
actually use the list of multiple resolutions (because we can't detect
when they change anyway). However, we might as well collect those values
from the get-go, adding/modifying what will eventually amount to hundreds
of entries is a bit cumbersome.
Note: we rely on the input_id builtin to tag us as mouse first, ordering
of the rules is important.
(David: fixed up typos and moved hwdb file into ./hwdb/)
Make screened character set consistent with unit_name_mangle() by splitting off
the escaping loop into a separate function.
Before this fix, unit names such as `foo@bar.target` would get transformed
into `foo\x40bar.target` when unit_name_mangle_with_suffix() is used.

When I tryed to run journalctl with --follow and --since arguments it
behaved very strangely.
First It prints logs from what I specified in --since argument, then
printed 10 lines (as is default in --follow) and when app put something
new in to log journalctl printed everithing from the last printed line.
How to reproduce:
1. run: journalctl -m --since 14:00 --follow
Then you'll see 10 lines of logs since 14:00. After that wait until some
app add something in the journal or just run `systemd-cat echo test`
2. After that journalctl will print every single line since 14:00 and will
follow as expected.
As long as --since and --follow will eventually print all relevant
lines, I seen no reason why not to print them right away and not after
first new message in journal.

For IPv6, the kernel returns EINVAL if a route is added with the
RTA_GATEWAY attribute set to in6addr_any (::). A route without a
gateway is useful in some situations, such as layer 3 tunneling
(sit, gre, etc.).
This patch prevents the RTA_GATEWAY attribute from being added
when route.in_addr is ip6addr_any (::).
This makes it possible to drop in logind configuration snippets from a
package or other configuration management mechanism.
Add documentation to the header of /etc/logind.conf pointing the user at
/etc/logind.conf.d/*.conf.
Introduce a new helper, conf_parse_many, to parse configuration files in
a search path.
Several different systemd tools define a nulstr containing a standard
series of configuration file directories, in /etc, /run, /usr/local/lib,
/usr/lib, and (#ifdef HAVE_SPLIT_USR) /lib. Factor that logic out into
a new helper macro, CONF_DIRS_NULSTR.
systemd-journald would refuse to start if it received an unknown
socket from systemd. This is annoying, because the failure more for
systemd-journald is unpleasant: systemd will keep restarting journald,
but most likely the same error will occur every time. It is better
to continue. journald will try to open missing sockets on its own,
so things should mostly work.
One question is whether to close the sockets which cannot be parsed or
to keep them open. Either way we might lose some messages. This
failure is most likely for the audit socket (selinux issues), which
can be opened multiple times so this not a problem, so I decided to
keep them open because it makes it easier to debug the issue after the
system is fully started.
systemd stops adding automatic dependencies on swap.target to swap
units. If a dependency is required, it has to be added by unit
configuration. fstab-generator did that already, except that now it is
modified to create a Requires or Wants type dependency, depending on
whether nofail is specified in /etc/fstab. This makes .swap units
obey the nofail/noauto options more or less the same as .mount units.
Documentation is extended to clarify that, and to make
systemd.mount(5) and system.swap(5) more similar. The gist is not
changed, because current behaviour actually matches existing
documentation.

This adds a new log_emergency() function, which is equivalent to
log_error() for non-PID-1, and logs at the highest priority for PID 1.
Some messages which occur before freezing are converted to use it.
When checking if the transaction is destructive, we need to check if the
previously installed job is a superset of the new job (and hence the new
job will fold into the installed one without changing it), not the other
way around.
