Change cunescape() to return a normal error code, so that we can
distuingish OOM errors from parse errors.
This also adds a flags parameter to control whether "relaxed" or normal
parsing shall be done. If set no parse failures are generated, and the
only reason why cunescape() can fail is OOM.
like:
src/shared/install.c: In function ‘unit_file_lookup_state’:
src/shared/install.c:1861:16: warning: ‘r’ may be used uninitialized in
this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
return r < 0 ? r : state;
^
src/shared/install.c:1796:13: note: ‘r’ was declared here
int r;
^
Audit messages would be displayed as "unknown[1]".
Also specify AUTH as facility... This seems to be the closest match
(/* security/authorization messages */).
Usually when using loop_read(), we want to read the full buffer.
Add a helper that mirrors loop_write(), and returns 0 when full buffer
was read, and an error otherwise.
Use -ENODATA for the short read, to distinguish it from a read error.
For daemons which have a main configuration file, there's
little reason for the administrator to use configuration snippets.
They are useful for packagers which need to override settings, but
we shouldn't advertise that as the main way of configuring those
services.

systemd-journald[395]: Failed to set file attributes: Inappropriate ioctl for device
This is because ext4 does not support FS_NOCOW_FL.
[zj: fold into one conditional as suggested on the ML and
fix (preexisting) r/errno confusion in error message.]
Commit 668c965af "journal: skipping of exhausted journal files is bad if
direction changed" fixed a correctness issue, but it also significantly
limited the cases where the optimization that skips exhausted journal
files could apply.
As a result, some journalctl queries are much slower in v219 than in v218.
(e.g. queries where a "--since" cutoff should have quickly eliminated
older journal files from consideration, but didn't.)
If already in the initial iteration find_location_with_matches() finds
no entry, the journal file's location is not updated. This is fine,
except that:
- We must update at least f->last_direction. The optimization relies on
it. Let's separate that from journal_file_save_location() and update
it immediately after the direction checks.
- The optimization was conditional on "f->current_offset > 0", but it
would always be 0 in this scenario. This check is unnecessary for the
optimization.
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.
include-what-you-use automatically does this and it makes finding
unnecessary harder to spot. The only content of poll.h is a include
of sys/poll.h so should be harmless.
Leave it to the compiler to figure out whether it shall inline stuff or
not.
Only place where using static inline is OK to use is in in header
files, really.
After all it is now much more like strjoin() than strappend(). At the
same time, add support for NULL sentinels, even if they are normally not
necessary.
If we scale our buffer to be wide enough for the format string, we
should expect that the calculation was correct.
char_array_0() invocations are removed, since snprintf nul-terminates
the output in any case.
A similar wrapper is used for strftime calls, but only in timedatectl.c.
This reverts commit b914ea8d37.
We really need to put a limit on all our resources, everywhere, and in
particular if we operate on external data.
Hence, let's reintroduce the limit, but bump it substantially, so that
it is guaranteed to be higher than any realistic RLIMIT_NOFILE setting.
The old "systemd-import" binary is now an internal tool. We still use it
as asynchronous backend for systemd-importd. Since the import tool might
require some IO and CPU resources (due to qcow2 explosion, and
decompression), and because we might want to run it with more minimal
priviliges we still keep it around as the worker binary to execute as
child process of importd.
machinectl now has verbs for pulling down images, cancelling them and
listing them.
In case CAP_SYS_ADMIN is missing (like in containers), one cannot fake pid in
struct ucred (uid/gid are fine if CAP_SETUID/CAP_SETGID are present).
Ensure that journald will try again to forward the messages to syslog without
faking the SCM_CREDENTIALS pid (which isn't guaranteed to succeed anyway, since
it also does the same thing if the process has already exited).
With this patch, journald will no longer silently discard messages
that are supposed to be sent to syslog in these situations.

This undoes a small part of 13790add4b
which was erroneously added, given that zero length datagrams are OK,
and hence zero length reads on a SOCK_DGRAM be no means mean EOF.
When there are a lot of split out journal files, we might run out of fds
quicker then we want. Hence: bump RLIMIT_NOFILE to 16K if possible.
Do these even for journalctl. On Fedora the soft RLIMIT_NOFILE is at 1K,
the hard at 4K by default for normal user processes, this code hence
bumps this up for users to 4K.

btrfs' COW logic results in heavily fragment journal files, which is
detrimental for perfomance. Hence, turn off COW for journal files as we
create them.
Turning off COW comes at the cost of data integrity guarantees, but this
should be acceptable, given that we do our own checksumming, and
generally have a pretty conservative write pattern.
Also see discussion on linux-btrfs:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-btrfs/msg41001.html
Our write pattern is quite awful for CoW file systems (btrfs...), as we
keep updating file parts in the beginning of the file. This results in
fragmented journal files. Hence: when rotating files, defragment them,
since at that point we know that no further write accesses will be made.
Making use of the fd storage capability of the previous commit, allow
restarting journald by serilizing stream state to /run, and pushing open
fds to PID 1.
Since the file headers might be replaced by zeroed pages now due to
sigbus we should make sure we don't end up dividing by zero because we
don't check values read from journal file headers for changes.
This makes them robust regarding truncation. Ideally, we'd export this
as an API, but given how messy SIGBUS handling is, and the uncertain
ownership logic of signal handlers we should not do this (unless libc
one day invents a scheme how to sanely install SIGBUS handlers for
specific memory areas only). However, for now we can still make all our
own tools robust.
Note that external tools will only have read-access to the journal
anyway, where SIGBUS is much more unlikely, given that only writes are
subject to disk full problems.
Even though we use fallocate() it appears that file systems like btrfs
will trigger SIGBUS on certain low-disk-space situation. We should
handle that, hence catch the signal, add it to a list of invalidated
pages, and replace the page with an empty memory area. After each write
check if SIGBUS was triggered, and consider the write invalid if it was.
This should make journald a lot more robust with file systems where
fallocate() is not reliable, for example all CoW file systems
(btrfs...), where changing written data can fail with disk full errors.
