Since bc8d57f290 mac_selinux_init() is checked and considered fatal
tree-wide.
Coverity complains about it not being checked in the test code.

This gets rid of most but not occasions of these loaded terms:
1. scsi_id and friends are something that is supposed to be removed from
our tree (see #7594)
2. The test suite defines an API used by the ubuntu CI. We can remove
this too later, but this needs to be done in sync with the ubuntu CI.
3. In some cases the terms are part of APIs we call or where we expose
concepts the kernel names the way it names them. (In particular all
remaining uses of the word "slave" in our codebase are like this,
it's used by the POSIX PTY layer, by the network subsystem, the mount
API and the block device subsystem). Getting rid of the term in these
contexts would mean doing some major fixes of the kernel ABI first.
Regarding the replacements: when whitelist/blacklist is used as noun we
replace with with allow list/deny list, and when used as verb with
allow-list/deny-list.
Presently, CLI utilities such as systemctl will check whether they have a tty
attached or not to decide whether to parse /proc/cmdline or EFI variable
SystemdOptions looking for systemd.log_* entries.
But this check will be misleading if these tools are being launched by a
daemon, such as a monitoring daemon or automation service that runs in
background.
Make log handling of CLI tools uniform by never checking /proc/cmdline or EFI
variables to determine the logging level.
Furthermore, introduce a new log_setup_cli() shortcut to set up common options
used by most command-line utilities.
This combines set_ensure_allocated() with set_consume(). The cool thing is that
because we know the hash ops, we can correctly free the item if appropriate.
Similarly to set_consume(), the goal is to simplify handling of the case where
the item needs to be freed on error and if already present in the set.
It's such a common operation to allocate the set and put an item in it,
that it deserves a helper. set_ensure_put() has the same return values
as set_put().
Comes with tests!
Let's make sure $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR for the user instance and /run for the
system instance is always organized the same way: the "inaccessible"
device nodes should be placed in a subdir of either called "systemd" and
a subdir of that called "inaccessible".
This way we can emphasize the common behaviour, and only differ where
really necessary.

dm-verity support in dissect-image at the moment is restricted to GPT
volumes.
If the image a single-filesystem type without a partition table (eg: squashfs)
and a roothash/verity file are passed, set the verity flag and mark as
read-only.
This is a follow-up for 9f83091e3c.
Instead of reading the mtime off the configuration files after reading,
let's do so before reading, but with the fd we read the data from. This
is not only cleaner (as it allows us to save one stat()), but also has
the benefit that we'll detect changes that happen while we read the
files.
This also reworks unit file drop-ins to use the common code for
determining drop-in mtime, instead of reading system clock for that.
We would parse numbers with base prefixes as user identifiers. For example,
"0x2b3bfa0" would be interpreted as UID==45334432 and "01750" would be
interpreted as UID==1000. This parsing was used also in cases where either a
user/group name or number may be specified. This means that names like
0x2b3bfa0 would be ambiguous: they are a valid user name according to our
documented relaxed rules, but they would also be parsed as numeric uids.
This behaviour is definitely not expected by users, since tools generally only
accept decimal numbers (e.g. id, getent passwd), while other tools only accept
user names and thus will interpret such strings as user names without even
attempting to convert them to numbers (su, ssh). So let's follow suit and only
accept numbers in decimal notation. Effectively this means that we will reject
such strings as a username/uid/groupname/gid where strict mode is used, and try
to look up a user/group with such a name in relaxed mode.
Since the function changed is fairly low-level and fairly widely used, this
affects multiple tools: loginctl show-user/enable-linger/disable-linger foo',
the third argument in sysusers.d, fourth and fifth arguments in tmpfiles.d,
etc.
Fixes#15985.
Prompted by the discussions in #15180.
This is a bit more complex than I hoped, since for PID 1 we need to pass
in the synethetic environment block in we generate on demand.
It's easy to add, and should be pretty useful, in particular as in
AssertPathIsEncrypted= as it can be used for checking that
some path is encrypted before some service is invoked that might want to
place secure material there.
kernel 5.6 added support for a new flag for getrandom(): GRND_INSECURE.
If we set it we can get some random data out of the kernel random pool,
even if it is not yet initializated. This is great for us to initialize
hash table seeds and such, where it is OK if they are crap initially. We
used RDRAND for these cases so far, but RDRAND is only available on
newer CPUs and some archs. Let's now use GRND_INSECURE for these cases
as well, which means we won't needlessly delay boot anymore even on
archs/CPUs that do not have RDRAND.
Of course we never set this flag when generating crypto keys or uuids.
Which makes it different from RDRAND for us (and is the reason I think
we should keep explicit RDRAND support in): RDRAND we don't trust enough
for crypto keys. But we do trust it enough for UUIDs.
As described in #15603, it is a fairly common setup to use a fqdn as the
configured hostname. But it is often convenient to use just the actual
hostname, i.e. until the first dot. This adds support in tmpfiles, sysusers,
and unit files for %l which expands to that.
Fixes#15603.
Ideally, assert_cc() would be used for this, so that it is not possible to even
compile systemd with something like '-Dfallback-hostname=.foo'. But to do a
proper check we need to call hostname_is_valid(), and we cannot depend on being
able to run code (e.g. during cross-compilation). So let's do a very superficial
check in meson, and a proper on in test-util.
