Also, while we are at it, beef it up, by adding json-seq support (i.e.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7464). This is particularly useful in
conjunction with jq's --seq switch.
LGMT complains:

Let's make sure that r is non-negative. (This shouldn't occur unless the format
string is borked, so let's just add an assert.)
Then, let's reorder the comparison to avoid the potential overflow.
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.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Also remove the comma from the comment everywhere, I think the comma
unnecessarilly put emphasis on the clause after the comma.
Fixes#9090.
Reproducer:
systemd-journal-remote --split-mode=none -o /tmp/msg6.journal --trust=all --listen-http=8080
systemd-journal-upload -u http://localhost:8080
journalctl --file /tmp/msg6.journal -o verbose -n1
Something is wrong with the entry (probably a missing timestamp), so no point
in rotating. But suppress the error in process_source(), so that the processing
of the data stream continues.
Also, just return 0 from writer_write() on success, the only caller doesn't
care.
This is in preparation to reusing the RemoteServer in other concepts.
I tried to keep changes to minimum:
- arg_* global variables are now passed as state in RemoteServer
- exported functions get the "journal_remote_" prefix
- some variables are renamed
In particular, there is an ugly global RemoveServer* variable. It was originally
added because µhttpd did not allow state to be passed to the callbacks. I'm not
sure if this has been remediated in µhttpd, but either way, this is not changed
here, the global variable is only renamed for clarity.
Most our other parsing functions do this, let's do this here too,
internally we accept that anyway. Also, the closely related
load_env_file() and load_env_file_pairs() also do this, so let's be
systematic.
This drops a good number of type-specific _cleanup_ macros, and patches
all users to just use the generic ones.
In most recent code we abstained from defining type-specific macros, and
this basically removes all those added already, with the exception of
the really low-level ones.
Having explicit macros for this is not too useful, as the expression
without the extra macro is generally just 2ch wider. We should generally
emphesize generic code, unless there are really good reasons for
specific code, hence let's follow this in this case too.
Note that _cleanup_free_ and similar really low-level, libc'ish, Linux
API'ish macros continue to be defined, only the really high-level OO
ones are dropped. From now on this should really be the rule: for really
low-level stuff, such as memory allocation, fd handling and so one, go
ahead and define explicit per-type macros, but for high-level, specific
program code, just use the generic _cleanup_() macro directly, in order
to keep things simple and as readable as possible for the uninitiated.
Note that before this patch some of the APIs (notable libudev ones) were
already used with the high-level macros at some places and with the
generic _cleanup_ macro at others. With this patch we hence unify on the
latter.
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.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
Previously the compression threshold was hardcoded to 512, which meant that
smaller values wouldn't be compressed. This left some storage savings on the
table, so instead, we make that number tunable.
Red is used for highligting, the same as grep does. Except when the line is
highlighted red already, because it has high priority, in which case plain ansi
highlight is used for the matched substring.
Coloring is implemented for short and cat outputs, and not for other types.
I guess we could also add it for verbose output in the future.
log.h really should only include the bare minimum of other headers, as
it is really pulled into pretty much everything else and already in
itself one of the most basic pieces of code we have.
Let's hence drop inclusion of:
1. sd-id128.h because it's entirely unneeded in current log.h
2. errno.h, dito.
3. sys/signalfd.h which we can replace by a simple struct forward
declaration
4. process-util.h which was needed for getpid_cached() which we now hide
in a funciton log_emergency_level() instead, which nicely abstracts
the details away.
5. sys/socket.h which was needed for struct iovec, but a simple struct
forward declaration suffices for that too.
Ultimately this actually makes our source tree larger (since users of
the functionality above must now include it themselves, log.h won't do
that for them), but I think it helps to untangle our web of includes a
tiny bit.
(Background: I'd like to isolate the generic bits of src/basic/ enough
so that we can do a git submodule import into casync for it)
This adds a new safe_fork() wrapper around fork() and makes use of it
everywhere. The new wrapper does a couple of things we previously did
manually and separately in a safer, more correct and automatic way:
1. Optionally resets signal handlers/mask in the child
2. Sets a name on all processes we fork off right after forking off (and
the patch assigns useful names for all processes we fork off now,
following a systematic naming scheme: always enclosed in () – in order
to indicate that these are not proper, exec()ed processes, but only
forked off children, and if the process is long-running with only our
own code, without execve()'ing something else, it gets am "sd-" prefix.)
3. Optionally closes all file descriptors in the child
4. Optionally sets a PR_SET_DEATHSIG to SIGTERM in the child, in a safe
way so that the parent dying before this happens being handled
safely.
5. Optionally reopens the logs
6. Optionally connects stdin/stdout/stderr to /dev/null
7. Debug logs about the forked off processes.
This makes things a bit easier to read I think, and also makes sure we
always use the _unlikely_ wrapper around it, which so far we used
sometimes and other times we didn't. Let's clean that up.
So far I avoided adding license headers to meson files, but they are pretty
big and important and should carry license headers like everything else.
I added my own copyright, even though other people modified those files too.
But this is mostly symbolic, so I hope that's OK.
This option allows restricting the shown fields in the output modes that
would normally show all fields. It allows clients that are only
interested in a subset of the fields to access those more efficiently.
Also, it makes the resulting size of the output more predictable.
It has no effect on the various `short` output modes, because those
already only show a subset of the fields.
