Let per-user service managers have user namespaces too.
For unprivileged users, user namespaces are set up much earlier
(before the mount, network, and UTS namespaces vs after) in
order to obtain capbilities in the new user namespace and enable use of
the other listed namespaces. However for privileged users (root), the
set up for the user namspace is still done at the end to avoid any
restrictions with combining namespaces inside a user namespace (see
inline comments).
Closes#10576
When wrong element types are used, directives are sometimes placed in the wrong
section. Also, strip part of text starting with "'", which is used in a few
places and which is displayed improperly in the index.
This partially reverts db11487d10 (the logic to
calculate the correct value is removed, we always use the same setting as for
the system manager). Distributions have an easy mechanism to override this if
they wish.
I think making this configurable is better, because different distros clearly
want different defaults here, and making this configurable is nice and clean.
If we don't make it configurable, distros which either have to carry patches,
or what would be worse, rely on some other configuration mechanism, like
/etc/profile. Those other solutions do not apply everywhere (they usually
require the shell to be used at some point), so it is better if we provide
a nice way to override the default.
Fixes #13469.
exec-condition and oom-kill were added without updating this table
Updated success to reflect the code, which also allows kills by signal in certain situations
Traditionally, user logins had a $PATH in which /bin was before /sbin, while
root logins had a $PATH with /sbin first. This allows the tricks that
consolehelper is doing to work. But even if we ignore consolehelper, having the
path in this order might have been used by admins for other purposes, and
keeping the order in user sessions will make it easier the adoption of systemd
user sessions a bit easier.
Fixes#733.

OOM handling in manager_default_environment wasn't really correct.
Now the (theorertical) malloc failure in strv_new() is handled.
Please note that this has no effect on:
- systems with merged /bin-/sbin (e.g. arch)
- when there are no binaries that differ between the two locations.
E.g. on my F30 laptop there is exactly one program that is affected:
/usr/bin/setup -> consolehelper.
There is less and less stuff that relies on consolehelper, but there's still
some.
So for "clean" systems this makes no difference, but helps with legacy setups.

Make possible to set NUMA allocation policy for manager. Manager's
policy is by default inherited to all forked off processes. However, it
is possible to override the policy on per-service basis. Currently we
support, these policies: default, prefer, bind, interleave, local.
See man 2 set_mempolicy for details on each policy.
Overall NUMA policy actually consists of two parts. Policy itself and
bitmask representing NUMA nodes where is policy effective. Node mask can
be specified using related option, NUMAMask. Default mask can be
overwritten on per-service level.
These options are pretty much equivalent to "journal" and
"journal+console" anyway, let's simplify things, and drop them from the
documentation hence.
For compat reasons let's keep them in the code.
(Note that they are not 100% identical to 'journal', but I doubt the
distinction in behaviour is really relevant to keep this in the docs.
And we should probably should drop 'syslog' entirely from our codebase
eventually, but it's problematic as long as we semi-support udev on
non-systemd systems still.)
This makes the handling of this option match what we do in unit files. I think
consistency is important here. (As it happens, it is the only option in
system.conf that is "non-atomic", i.e. where there's a list of things which can
be split over multiple assignments. All other options are single-valued, so
there's no issue of how to handle multiple assignments.)

Apparently this is still confusing for people.
Longer-term, I think we should just make BindMount= automatically "upgrade"
(or "downgrade", depending on how you look at this), any InaccessiblePath=
mountpoints to "tmpfs". I don't see much point in forcing users to remember
this interaction. But let's at least document the status quo, we can always
update the docs if the code changes.
Let's be safe, rather than sorry. This way DynamicUser=yes services can
neither take benefit of, nor create SUID/SGID binaries.
Given that DynamicUser= is a recent addition only we should be able to
get away with turning this on, even though this is strictly speaking a
binary compatibility breakage.
Let's avoid confusion whether the root is at the top or of the bottom of
the directory tree. Moreover we use "innermost" further down for the
same concept, so let's stick to the same terminology here.
The "include" files had type "book" for some raeason. I don't think this
is meaningful. Let's just use the same everywhere.
$ perl -i -0pe 's^..DOCTYPE (book|refentry) PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.[25]//EN"\s+"http^<!DOCTYPE refentry PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN"\n "http^gms' man/*.xml
No need to waste space, and uniformity is good.

Let services use a private UTS namespace. In addition, a seccomp filter is
installed on set{host,domain}name and a ro bind mounts on
/proc/sys/kernel/{host,domain}name.
This changes the ProtectSystem= documentation to refer in more explicit
words to the restrictions of ReadOnlyPath=, as sugegsted in #9857.
THis also extends the paragraph in ReadOnlyPath= that explains the hole.
Fixes: #9857
Add LogRateLimitIntervalSec= and LogRateLimitBurst= options for
services. If provided, these values get passed to the journald
client context, and those values are used in the rate limiting
function in the journal over the the journald.conf values.

The behaviour described *was* observed on Fedora 28
(systemd-238-9.git0e0aa59), with and without SELinux. I don't actually
know why though! It contradicts my understanding of the code, including an
explicit comment in the code.
Testing in a VM upgraded to v239-792-g1327f272d, this behaviour goes away.
Test case:

RootImage= may require the following settings

This adds the following settings implicitly when RootImage= is

Fixes#9737.
Currently we employ mostly system call blacklisting for our system
services. Let's add a new system call filter group @system-service that
helps turning this around into a whitelist by default.
The new group is very similar to nspawn's default filter list, but in
some ways more restricted (as sethostname() and suchlike shouldn't be
available to most system services just like that) and in others more
relaxed (for example @keyring is blocked in nspawn since it's not
properly virtualized yet in the kernel, but is fine for regular system
services).
Docbook styles required those to be present, even though the templates that we
use did not show those names anywhere. But something changed semi-recently (I
would suspect docbook templates, but there was only a minor version bump in
recent years, and the changelog does not suggest anything related), and builds
now work without those entries. Let's drop this dead weight.
Tested with F26-F29, debian unstable.
$ perl -i -0pe 's/\s*<authorgroup>.*<.authorgroup>//gms' man/*xml
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.
Since StandardOutput=file:path is more similar to StandardInput= than
StandardInputText=, and only StandardInput= is actually documented above
StandardOutput= whereas StandardInputText= is documented below it, I
assume the intention was to refer to the former.
Previously, reading through systemd.exec(5) one might get the idea that
XDG_SEAT and XDG_VTNR are part of the service management logic, but they
are not, they are only set if pam_systemd is part of a PAM stack an
pam_systemd is used.
Hence, let's drop these env vars from the list of env vars, and instead
add a paragraph after the list mentioning that pam_systemd might add
more systemd-specific env vars if included in the PAM stack for a
service that uses PAMName=.
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.
Before this change all unit types would default to "private" in the
system service manager and "inherit" to in the user service manager.
With this change this is slightly altered: non-service units of the
system service manager are now run with KeyringMode=shared. This appears
to be the more appropriate choice as isolation is not as desirable for
mount tools, which regularly consume key material. After all mounts are
a shared resource themselves as they appear system-wide hence it makes a
lot of sense to share their key material too.
Fixes: #8159
The VDSO provided by the kernel for x32, uses x86-64 syscalls instead of
x32 ones.
I think we can safely allow this; the set of x86-64 syscalls should be
very similar to the x32 ones. The real point is not to allow *x86*
syscalls, because some of those are inconveniently multiplexed and we're
apparently not able to block the specific actions we want to.

Attempting to use "implies" in the later sentence, in a way that
contradicts the very clear meaning of the earlier sentence... it's too
much.
