Whenever I see EXTRACT_QUOTES, I'm always confused whether it means to
leave the quotes in or to take them out. Let's say "unquote", like we
say "cunescape".
All our bus calls validate whether the specified device is a loopback
device anyway on the server side. Let's hence simplify the client,
there's no value in optimizing error paths after all. But there is value
in simpler code.
Ideally, coccinelle would strip unnecessary braces too. But I do not see any
option in coccinelle for this, so instead, I edited the patch text using
search&replace to remove the braces. Unfortunately this is not fully automatic,
in particular it didn't deal well with if-else-if-else blocks and ifdefs, so
there is an increased likelikehood be some bugs in such spots.
I also removed part of the patch that coccinelle generated for udev, where we
returns -1 for failure. This should be fixed independently.
This is a bit like the info link in most of GNU's --help texts, but we
don't do info but man pages, and we make them properly clickable on
terminal supporting that, because awesome.
I think it's generally advisable to link up our (brief) --help texts and
our (more comprehensive) man pages a bit, so this should be an easy and
straight-forward way to do it.
Also use compat_main() when called as `resolvconf`, since the interface
is closer to that of `systemd-resolve`.
Use a heap allocated string to set arg_ifname, since a stack allocated
one would be lost after the function returns. (This last one broke the
case where an interface name was suffixed with a dot, such as in
`resolvconf -a tap0.dhcp`.)
Tested:
$ build/resolvconf -a nonexistent.abc </etc/resolv.conf
Unknown interface 'nonexistent': No such device
Fixes#9423.
Double newlines (i.e. one empty lines) are great to structure code. But
let's avoid triple newlines (i.e. two empty lines), quadruple newlines,
quintuple newlines, …, that's just spurious whitespace.
It's an easy way to drop 121 lines of code, and keeps the coding style
of our sources a bit tigther.
This makes `resolvectl` use the verb style command line, e.g.,
`resolvectl status` or `resolvectl tlsa tcp fedoraproject.org:443`.
For compatibility, if the invocation name is `systemd-resolve`,
then it accepts the old syntax, e.g. `systemd-resolve --status`.
This turns resolve-tool into a multi-call binary. When invoked as
"resolvconf" it provides minimal compatibility with the resolvconf(8)
tool of various distributions (and FreeBSD as it appears).
This new interface understands to varying degrees features of the two
major implementations of resolvconf(8): Debian's original one and
"openresolv". Specifically:
Fully supported:
-a -d (supported by all implementations)
-f (introduced by openresolv)
Somewhat supported:
-x (introduced by openresolv, mapped to a '~.' domain entry)
Unsupported and ignored:
-m -p (introduced by openresolv, not really necessary for us)
Unsupported and resulting in failure:
-u (supported by all other implementations)
-I -i -l -R -r -v -V
(all introduced by openresolv)
--enable-updates --disable-updates --updates-are-enabled
(specific to Debian's implementation)
Of course, resolvconf(8) is a tool with multiple backends, in our
implementation systemd-resolved is the only backend.
