Sometimes it is useful for debugging purposes to force systemctl to connect to
PID 1 via the bus instead of direct connection, even if the direct connection
is possible.
Otherwise we think the alias is the real unit, and may edit/cat the
wrong unit.
Before this patch:
$ systemctl edit autovt@ # creates dropin in /etc/systemd/system/autovt@.service.d
$ systemctl cat autovt@ | grep @.service
# /lib/systemd/system/autovt@.service
# that serial gettys are covered by serial-getty@.service, not this
# /etc/systemd/system/autovt@.service.d/override.conf
$ systemctl cat getty@ | grep @.service
# /lib/systemd/system/getty@.service
# that serial gettys are covered by serial-getty@.service, not this
After this patch
$ systemctl edit autovt@ # creates dropin in /etc/systemd/system/getty@.service.d
$ systemctl cat autovt@ | grep @.service
# /usr/lib/systemd/system/getty@.service
# that serial gettys are covered by serial-getty@.service, not this
# /etc/systemd/system/getty@.service.d/override.conf
systemctl cat getty@ | grep @.service

We don't have plural in the name of any other -util files and this
inconsistency trips me up every time I try to type this file name
from memory. "formats-util" is even hard to pronounce.
Make the underlining between the header and the body and between the units of
different types span the whole width of the table.
Let's never make the table wider than necessary (which is relevant due the
above).
When space is limited and we can't show the full ID or description string
prefer showing the full ID over the full description. The ID is after all
something people might want to copy/paste, while the description is mostly just
helpful decoration.
It may be desired by users to know what targets a particular service is
installed into. Improve user friendliness by teaching the is-enabled
command to show such information when used with --full.
This patch makes use of the newly added UnitFileFlags and adds
UNIT_FILE_DRY_RUN flag into it. Since the API had already been modified,
it's now easy to add the new dry-run feature for other commands as
well. As a next step, --dry-run could be added to systemctl, which in
turn might pave the way for a long requested dry-run feature when
running systemctl start.
SIGTERM should be considered a clean exit code for daemons (i.e. long-running
processes, as a daemon without SIGTERM handler may be shut down without issues
via SIGTERM still) while it should not be considered a clean exit code for
commands (i.e. short-running processes).
Let's add two different clean checking modes for this, and use the right one at
the appropriate places.
Fixes: #4275
Let's get rid of is_clean_exit_lsb(), let's move the logic for the special
handling of the two LSB exit codes into the sysv-generator by writing out
appropriate SuccessExitStatus= lines if the LSB header exists. This is not only
semantically more correct, bug also fixes a bug as the code in service.c that
chose between is_clean_exit_lsb() and is_clean_exit() based this check on
whether a native unit files was available for the unit. However, that check was
bogus since a long time, since the SysV generator was introduced and native
SysV script support was removed from PID 1, as in that case a unit file always
existed.
Show is documented to be program-parseable, and printing the warning about
about a non-existent unit, while useful for humans, broke a lot of scripts.
Restore previous behaviour of returning success and printing empty or useless
stuff for units which do not exist, and printing empty values for properties
which do not exists.
With SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug, hints are printed, but the return value is
still 0.
This undoes parts of e33a06a and 3dced37b7 and fixes#3856.
We might consider adding an explicit switch to fail on missing units/properties
(e.g. --ensure-exists or similar), and make -P foobar equivalent to
--ensure-exists --property=foobar.
Prior to this commit, users could be given an unusable command to run if
they attempted to stop or start special services. For example:
$ systemctl stop -- -.mount
Failed to stop -.mount: Operation refused, unit -.mount may be \
requested by dependency only.
See system logs and 'systemctl status -.mount' for details.
$ systemctl status -.mount
systemctl: invalid option -- '.'
This adds a '--' to the example command in these situations.
Otherwise for example services that are failing on start and have Restart=on-failure
and bigger RestartSec systemctl status will return 0.
Fixes: #3864
systemd now returns an error when it is asked to perform disable on the
unit file path. In the past this was allowed, but systemd never really
considered an actual content of the [Install] section of the unit
file. Instead it performed disable on the unit name, i.e. purged all
symlinks pointing to the given unit file (undo of implicit link action
done by systemd when enable is called on the unit file path) and all
symlinks that have the same basename as the given unit file.
However, to notice that [Install] info of the file is not consulted one
must create additional symlinks manually. I argue that in most cases
users do not create such links. Let's be nice to our users and don't
break existing scripts that expect disable to work with the unit file
path.
Fixes#3706.

This happens because map_basic() strdups the strings. Other code in systemctl
assigns strings to UnitStatusInfo without copying them, relying on the fact
that the message is longer lived than UnitStatusInfo. Add a helper function
that is similar to map_basic, but only accepts strings and does not copy them.
The alternative of continuing to use map_basic() but adding proper cleanup
to free fields in UnitStatusInfo seems less attractive because it'd require
changing a lot of code and doing a lot of more allocations for little gain.
(I put "leaking" in quotes, because systemctl is short lived anyway.)
Clarify that "systemctl enable" can operate either on unit names or on unit
file paths (also, adjust the --help text to clarify this). Say that "systemctl
enable" on unit file paths also links the unit into the search path.
Many other fixes.
This should improve the documentation to avoid further confusion around #3706.
Don't check inhibitors when operating remotely. The interactivity inhibitors
imply can#t be provided anyway, and the current code checks for local sessions
directly, via various sd_session_xyz() APIs, hence bypass it entirely if we
operate on remote systems.
Fixes: #3476
If we show both a control and a main PID for a service fix this line in the
output of "systemctl status":
Main PID: 19670 (sleep); : 19671 (sleep)
to become this:
Main PID: 19670 (sleep); Control PID: 19671 (sleep)
When unit has multiple condition list, systemctl is not showing which
conditions were failed. When user want to know which conditions were
failed, user has to check for each conditions.
So, show failed condition list also.
In https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/3543, we would open the pager
before starting ssh, and the pipe fd was "leaked" into the ssh child as the
stderr fd. Previous commit fixes bus-socket to nullify stderr before launching
the child, but it seems reasonable to also delay starting the pager.
If we are going to croak when trying to open the transport, it seems better
to do this before starting the pager.
This commit would also fix#3543 on its own.
If "systemctl -H" is used, let's make sure we first terminate the bus
connection, and only then close the pager. If done in this order ssh will get
an EOF on stdin (as we speak D-Bus through ssh's stdin/stdout), and then
terminate. This makes sure the standard error we were invoked on is released by
ssh, and only that makes sure we don't deadlock on the pager which waits for
all clients closing its input pipe.
(Similar fixes for the various other xyzctl tools that support both pagers and
-H)
Fixes: #3543
This reworks "systemctl status" and "systemctl show" a bit. It removes the
definition of the `property_info` structure, because we can simply reuse the
existing UnitStatusInfo type for that.
The "could not be found" message is now printed by show_one() itself (and not
its caller), so that it is shown regardless by who the function is called.
(This makes it necessary to pass the unit name to the function.)
This also adds all properties found to a set, and then checks if any of the
properties passed via "--property=" is mising in it, if so, a proper error is
generated.
Support for checking the PID file of a unit is removed, as this cannot be done
reasonably client side (since the systemd instance we are talking to might sit
on another host)

... as well as halt/poweroff/kexec/suspend/hibernate/hybrid-sleep.
Running those commands will fail in user mode, but we try to set the wall
message first, which might even succeed for privileged users. Best to nip
the whole sequence in the bud.
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3453#issuecomment-225455156
Reloading or reexecuting PID 1 means the unit generators are rerun, which are
timed out at 90s. Make sure the method call asking for the reload is timed out
at twice that, so that the generators have 90s and the reload operation has 90s
too.
This reworks the daemon_reload() call in systemctl, and makes it exclusively
about reloading/reexecing. Previously it was used for other trivial method
calls too, which didn't really help readability. As the code paths are now
sufficiently different, split out the old code into a new function
trivial_method().
This call also does a similar change as
c8ad4efb277c3235d58789170af11bb3c847d655 but for the reload/reexec operation.
Fixes: #3353
For legacy commands such as /sbin/halt or /sbin/poweroff we support legacy
fallbacks that talk via traditional SysV way with PID 1 to issue the desired
operation. We do this on any kind of error if the primary method of operation
fails. When this is the case we suppress any error message that is normally
generated, in order to not confuse the user. When suppressing this log message,
don't suppress the original error code, because there's really no reason to.
systemctl --property doesn't validate if a requested property is valid or not,
and always returns with an exit code of 0, regardless of whether the requested
property exists or not.

On the unified hierarchy, memory controller implements three control knobs -
low, high and max which enables more useable and versatile control over memory
usage. This patch implements support for the three control knobs.
* MemoryLow, MemoryHigh and MemoryMax are added for memory.low, memory.high and
memory.max, respectively.
* As all absolute limits on the unified hierarchy use "max" for no limit, make
memory limit parse functions accept "max" in addition to "infinity" and
document "max" for the new knobs.
* Implement compatibility translation between MemoryMax and MemoryLimit.
v2:
- Fixed missing else's in config_parse_memory_limit().
- Fixed missing newline when writing out drop-ins.
- Coding style updates to use "val > 0" instead of "val".
- Minor updates to documentation.
We have to pass addresses of changes and n_changes to
bus_deserialize_and_dump_unit_file_changes(). Otherwise we are hit by
missing information (subsequent calls to unit_file_changes_add() to
not add anything).
Also prevent null pointer dereference in
bus_deserialize_and_dump_unit_file_changes() by asserting.
Fixes#3339
After enabling/disabling a unit, the daemon configuration is expected
to be unless '--no-reload' option is passed.
However this is not done when enabling a sysv units. This can lead to
the following scenario:
$ cp /etc/init.d/named /etc/init.d/foo
$ systemctl enable foo
foo.service is not a native service, redirecting to systemd-sysv-install
Executing /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable foo
$ systemctl start foo
Failed to start foo.service: Unit foo.service failed to load: No such file or directory.
This can also be seen after installing a package providing a sysv
service: the service can't be started unless 'daemon-reload' is called
manually. This shouldn't be needed and this patch will fix this case
too since during package installation, the service is expected to be
enabled/disabled.
The sync() call on shutdown had been removed with commit 57371e5829
together with the no-sync option for the shutdown commands.
The sync call was restored in commit 4a3ad39957 but the no-sync option
wasn't re-added.
I think we should restore this option at least for the legacy halt command.
Currently, there are two cgroup IO limits, bandwidth max for read and write,
and they are hard-coded in various places. This is fine for two limits but IO
is expected to grow more limits - low, high and max limits for bandwidth and
IOPS - and hard-coding each limit won't make sense.
This patch replaces hard-coded limits with an array indexed by
CGroupIOLimitType and accompanying string and default value tables so that new
limits can be added trivially.
That function doesn't draw anything on it's own, just returns a string, which
sometimes is more than one character. Also remove "DRAW_" prefix from character
names, TREE_* and ARROW and BLACK_CIRCLE are unambigous on their own, don't
draw anything, and are always used as an argument to special_glyph().
Rename "DASH" to "MDASH", as there's more than one type of dash.
On the unified hierarchy, blkio controller is renamed to io and the interface
is changed significantly.
* blkio.weight and blkio.weight_device are consolidated into io.weight which
uses the standardized weight range [1, 10000] with 100 as the default value.
* blkio.throttle.{read|write}_{bps|iops}_device are consolidated into io.max.
Expansion of throttling features is being worked on to support
work-conserving absolute limits (io.low and io.high).
* All stats are consolidated into io.stats.
This patchset adds support for the new interface. As the interface has been
revamped and new features are expected to be added, it seems best to treat it
as a separate controller rather than trying to expand the blkio settings
although we might add automatic translation if only blkio settings are
specified.
* io.weight handling is mostly identical to blkio.weight[_device] handling
except that the weight range is different.
* Both read and write bandwidth settings are consolidated into
CGroupIODeviceLimit which describes all limits applicable to the device.
This makes it less painful to add new limits.
* "max" can be used to specify the maximum limit which is equivalent to no
config for max limits and treated as such. If a given CGroupIODeviceLimit
doesn't contain any non-default configs, the config struct is discarded once
the no limit config is applied to cgroup.
* lookup_blkio_device() is renamed to lookup_block_device().

This fixes fall-out from 6d10d308c6.
Until that commit, do determine whether a daemon reload was required we compare
the mtime of the main unit file we loaded with the mtime of it on disk for
equality, but for drop-ins we only stored the newest mtime of all of them and
then did a "newer-than" comparison. This was brokeni with the above commit,
when all checks where changed to be for equality.
With this change all checks are now done as "newer-than", fixing the drop-in
mtime case. Strictly speaking this will not detect a number of changes that the
code before above commit detected, but given that the mtime is unlikely to go
backwards, and this is just intended to be a helpful hint anyway, this looks OK
in order to keep things simple.
Fixes: #3123
This adds a new GetProcesses() bus call to the Unit object which returns an
array consisting of all PIDs, their process names, as well as their full cgroup
paths. This is then used by "systemctl status" to show the per-unit process
tree.
This has the benefit that the client-side no longer needs to access the
cgroupfs directly to show the process tree of a unit. Instead, it now uses this
new API, which means it also works if -H or -M are used correctly, as the
information from the specific host is used, and not the one from the local
system.
Fixes: #2945
When "preset" was executed for a unit without install info, we'd warn similarly
as for "enable" and "disable". But "preset" is usually called for all units,
because the preset files are provided by the distribution, and the units are under
control of individual programs, and it's reasonable to call "preset" for all units
rather then try to do it only for the ones that can be installed.
We also don't warn about missing info for "preset-all". Thus it seems reasonable
to silently ignore units w/o install info when presetting.
(In addition, when more than one unit was specified, we'd issue the warning
only if none of them had install info. But this is probably something to fix
for enable/disable too.)
No need to dump all the redundant device units on the user, just because he
specified that he wants to see units of a specific state.
This was broken by commit ebc962656c.
Fixes#2191:
$ systemctl --root=/ enable sddm
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service, pointing to /usr/lib/systemd/system/sddm.service.
$ sudo build/systemctl --root=/ enable gdm
Failed to enable unit, file /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service already exists and is a symlink to /usr/lib/systemd/system/sddm.service.
$ sudo build/systemctl --root= enable sddm
$ sudo build/systemctl --root= enable gdm
Failed to enable unit: File /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service already exists and is a symlink to /usr/lib/systemd/system/sddm.service.
(I tried a few different approaches to pass the error information back to the
caller. Adding a new parameter to hold the error results in a gigantic patch
and a lot of hassle to pass the args arounds. Adding this information to the
changes array is straightforward and can be more easily extended in the
future.)
In case local installation is performed, the full set of errors can be reported
and we do that. When running over dbus, only the first error is reported.
With any masked unit that would that would be enabled by presets, we'd get:
test@rawhide $ sudo systemctl preset-all
Failed to execute operation: Unit file is masked.
test@rawhide $ sudo systemctl --root=/ preset-all
Operation failed: Cannot send after transport endpoint shutdown
Simply ignore those units:
test@rawhide $ sudo systemctl preset-all
Unit xxx.service is masked, ignoring.
If the error code ever leaks (we print the strerror error instead of providing
our own), the message for ESHUTDOWN is "Cannot send after transport endpoint
shutdown", which can be misleading. In particular it suggest that some
mishandling of the dbus connection occured. Let's change that to ERFKILL which
has the advantage that a) it sounds implausible as actual error, b) has the
connotation of disabling something manually.
Before 0f03c2a4c0 specifying any path would cause the systemctl client
to do the installation itself, instead of going over dbus. Restore that
behaviour.
We don't allow using config symlinks to enable units, but the error message we
printed was awful. Fix that, and generate a more readable error.
Fixes#3010.
This allows dropping all user configuration and reverting back to the vendor
default of a unit file. It basically undoes what "systemctl edit", "systemctl
set-property" and "systemctl mask" do.
The SysV compat code checks whether there's a native unit file before looking
for a SysV init script. Since the newest rework generated units will show up in
the unit path, and hence the checks ended up assuming that there always was a
native unit file for each init script: the generated one.
With this change the generated unit file directory is suppressed from the
search path when this check is done, to avoid the confusion.
We should log about everything we don't expect.
Also, add a comment for one case were we do not log, on purpose, and make it
use a separate error code.
Move the search path check from the SysV service compat support into install.c
so that we can reuse the usual algorithm instead of rolling a private loop for
this.
Always warn if something fails, and clarify that the involved utility functions
do so in their name.
Drop the REBOOT_PARAM_FILE macro. We don't do this for other flag file paths
like this, so don't do this for this one either. The path isn't configurable
anyway, hence let's make this easier to read by avoiding this one indirection.
Now, that the search path logic knows the unit path for transient units we also
can introduce an explicit unit file state "transient" that clarifies to the
user what kind of unit file he is encountering.
Previously, we had two enums ManagerRunningAs and UnitFileScope, that were
mostly identical and converted from one to the other all the time. The latter
had one more value UNIT_FILE_GLOBAL however.
Let's simplify things, and remove ManagerRunningAs and replace it by
UnitFileScope everywhere, thus making the translation unnecessary. Introduce
two new macros MANAGER_IS_SYSTEM() and MANAGER_IS_USER() to simplify checking
if we are running in one or the user context.
Now that we store the generator directories in LookupPaths we can use this to
intrdouce a new unit file state called "generated", for units in these
directories.
Fixes: #2348
A long time ago – when generators where first introduced – the directories for
them were randomly created via mkdtemp(). This was changed later so that they
use fixed name directories now. Let's make use of this, and add the genrator
dirs to the LookupPaths structure and into the unit file search path maintained
in it. This has the benefit that the generator dirs are now normal part of the
search path for all tools, and thus are shown in "systemctl list-unit-files"
too.
With this option, systemctl will only print the rhs in show:
$ systemctl show -p Wants,After systemd-journald --value
systemd-journald.socket ...
systemd-journald-dev-log.socket ...
This is useful in scripts, because the need to call awk or similar
is removed.
If list-units command is explicitly asked to show inactive units
by using '--state=inactive' option, there's no need to force the user
to pass '--all' option to include inactive units in the search in
this case.
The get_state_one_unit returns the enum of the active state of the unit
Do not rely on the string value of the active state.
Fix#2718 since the refactoring allow to handle more case
Many subsystems define own pager_open_if_enabled() function which
checks '--no-pager' command line argument and open pager depends
on its value. All implementations of pager_open_if_enabled() are
the same. Let's merger this function with pager_open() from the
shared/pager.c and remove pager_open_if_enabled() from all subsytems
to prevent code duplication.
Throughout the tree there's spurious use of spaces separating ++ and --
operators from their respective operands. Make ++ and -- operator
consistent with the majority of existing uses; discard the spaces.
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2431
Some newlines are added, but the output will still exceed 80 columns in many
cases. The fallback for oom conditions is changed from "n/a" to something
"<service>", and a similar pattern is used for the new code. This way we
have a realistic fallback for oom, which seems nicer than making the whole
function return an error code which would then have to be propagated.
$ systemctl -M fedora-rawhide restart systemd-networkd.service
Job for systemd-networkd.service failed because start of the service was attempted too often.
See "systemctl -M fedora-rawhide status systemd-networkd.service" and "journalctl -M fedora-rawhide -xe" for details.
To force a start use "systemctl -M fedora-rawhide reset-failed systemd-networkd.service"
followed by "systemctl -M fedora-rawhide start systemd-networkd.service" again.
Make sure we can properly process resource limit properties. Specifically, allow transient configuration of both the
soft and hard limit, the same way from the unit files. Previously, only the the hard rlimits could be configured but
they'd implicitly spill into the soft hard rlimits.
This also updates the client-side code to be able to parse hard/soft resource limit specifications. Since we need to
serialize two properties in bus_append_unit_property_assignment() now, the marshalling of the container around it is
now moved into the function itself. This has the benefit of shortening the calling code.
As a side effect this now beefs up the rlimit parser of "systemctl set-property" to understand time and disk sizes
where that's appropriate.
But also keep the old name as (undocumented) compatibility around.
The reload-or-try-restart was documented to be a NOP if the unit is not running, since the previous commits this is
also implemented. The old name suggests that the "try" logic only applies to restarting. Fix this, by moving the "try-"
to the front, to indicate that the whole option is a NOP if the service isn't running.
When checking a unit's state, don't ignore errors too eagerly, but generate proper error messages. Also, don't
synthesize an "unknown" state on error, but let the operation file. If a unit file isn't loaded treat this as
"inactive" as that's effectively what it means.
As it turns out all callers of check_unit_generic() already mangle unit names, or get the unit names directly from PID
1 (and hence arein normalized form anyway), hence there's no point in mangling then...
If we have many entries to add to an strv we really should try to be smarter than constantly realloc()ing the strv
array. Instead, grow it exponentially.
Previously we have return the not-found code, in the case that we found a
unit which does not belong to set active (resp. failed), which is the
opposite than what is written in man page.
Don't fail if the unit has a LoadError; otherwise `systemctl edit` cannot be
used to correct the error (e.g. multiple "ExecStart=" lines).
Remove file changed warning so cat output isn't interspersed with log messages.
Fixes#829
... to determine if color output should be enabled. If the variable is not set,
fall back to using on_tty(). Also, rewrite existing code to use
colors_enabled() where appropriate.
When a unit was started with "systemctl --user" and it failed, error
messages is printed as "systemctl status". But it should be "systemctl
--user status".
GLIB has recently started to officially support the gcc cleanup
attribute in its public API, hence let's do the same for our APIs.
With this patch we'll define an xyz_unrefp() call for each public
xyz_unref() call, to make it easy to use inside a
__attribute__((cleanup())) expression. Then, all code is ported over to
make use of this.
The new calls are also documented in the man pages, with examples how to
use them (well, I only added docs where the _unref() call itself already
had docs, and the examples, only cover sd_bus_unrefp() and
sd_event_unrefp()).
This also renames sd_lldp_free() to sd_lldp_unref(), since that's how we
tend to call our destructors these days.
Note that this defines no public macro that wraps gcc's attribute and
makes it easier to use. While I think it's our duty in the library to
make our stuff easy to use, I figure it's not our duty to make gcc's own
features easy to use on its own. Most likely, client code which wants to
make use of this should define its own:
#define _cleanup_(function) __attribute__((cleanup(function)))
Or similar, to make the gcc feature easier to use.
Making this logic public has the benefit that we can remove three header
files whose only purpose was to define these functions internally.
See #2008.
As discussed at systemd.conf 2015 and on also raised on the ML:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-November/034880.html
This removes the two XyzOverridable= unit dependencies, that were
basically never used, and do not enhance user experience in any way.
Most folks looking for the functionality this provides probably opt for
the "ignore-dependencies" job mode, and that's probably a good idea.
Hence, let's simplify systemd's dependency engine and remove these two
dependency types (and their inverses).
The unit file parser and the dbus property parser will now redirect
the settings/properties to result in an equivalent non-overridable
dependency. In the case of the unit file parser we generate a warning,
to inform the user.
The dbus properties for this unit type stay available on the unit
objects, but they are now hidden from usual introspection and will
always return the empty list when queried.
This should provide enough compatibility for the few unit files that
actually ever made use of this.
Some distributions use alias unit files via symlinks in /usr to cover
for legacy service names. With this change we'll allow "systemctl
enable" on such aliases.
Previously, our rule was that symlinks are user configuration that
"systemctl enable" + "systemctl disable" creates and removes, while unit
files is where the instructions to do so are store. As a result of the
rule we'd never read install information through symlinks, since that
would mix enablement state with installation instructions.
Now, the new rule is that only symlinks inside of /etc are
configuration. Unit files, and symlinks in /usr are now valid for
installation instructions.
This patch is quite a rework of the whole install logic, and makes the
following addional changes:
- Adds a complete test "test-instal-root" that tests the install logic
pretty comprehensively.
- Never uses canonicalize_file_name(), because that's incompatible with
operation relative to a specific root directory.
- unit_file_get_state() is reworked to return a proper error, and
returns the state in a call-by-ref parameter. This cleans up confusion
between the enum type and errno-like errors.
- The new logic puts a limit on how long to follow unit file symlinks:
it will do so only for 64 steps at max.
- The InstallContext object's fields are renamed to will_process and
has_processed (will_install and has_installed) since they are also
used for deinstallation and all kinds of other operations.
- The root directory is always verified before use.
- install.c is reordered to place the exported functions together.
- Stricter rules are followed when traversing symlinks: the unit suffix
must say identical, and it's not allowed to link between regular units
and templated units.
- Various modernizations
- The "invalid" unit file state has been renamed to "bad", in order to
avoid confusion between UNIT_FILE_INVALID and
_UNIT_FILE_STATE_INVALID. Given that the state should normally not be
seen and is not documented this should not be a problematic change.
The new name is now documented however.
Fixes#1375, #1718, #1706
Instead, let the caller do that. Fix this by moving masked unit messages
into the caller, by returning a clear error code (ESHUTDOWN) by which
this may be detected.
Snapshots were never useful or used for anything. Many systemd
developers that I spoke to at systemd.conf2015, didn't even know they
existed, so it is fairly safe to assume that this type can be deleted
without harm.
The fundamental problem with snapshots is that the state of the system
is dynamic, devices come and go, users log in and out, timers fire...
and restoring all units to some state from the past would "undo"
those changes, which isn't really possible.
Tested by creating a snapshot, running the new binary, and checking
that the transition did not cause errors, and the snapshot is gone,
and snapshots cannot be created anymore.
New systemctl says:
Unknown operation snapshot.
Old systemctl says:
Failed to create snapshot: Support for snapshots has been removed.
IgnoreOnSnaphost settings are warned about and ignored:
Support for option IgnoreOnSnapshot= has been removed and it is ignored
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2015-November/034872.html
This adds support for a new environment variable
SYSTEMCTL_INSTALL_CLIENT_SIDE, that ensures that systemctl executes
install operations client-side instead of passing them to PID1. This is
useful in debugging situations, but even beyond that. However, we don't
want to make it official API, hence let's just make it an undocumented
environment variable.
Similar, add a second variable, SYSTEMCTL_SKIP_SYSV which allows
skipping the SysV chkconfig fall-back if set. This is useful for similar
reasons, and exposed as undocumented as environment variable for similar
reasons, too.
Sometimes we have to connect to the system manager directly (early boot,
initrd, late boot, ...), sometimes through the system bus (unprivileged,
remote, logind, ...). Instead of guessing in advance, which kind of
connection we require (and sometimes guessing incorrectly), let's make
sure each time we need bus connection we request the right bus
explicitly.
This way, we set up exactly the bus connections require, never guess
incorrectly, and do so only immediately when necessary.
As effect this reworks avoid_bus() into install_client_side(), since
that's all it determines now: whether to install unit files client-side
or server-side (i.e. in PID 1).
In sd-bus, the sd_bus_open_xyz() family of calls allocates a new bus,
while sd_bus_default_xyz() family tries to reuse the thread's default
bus. bus_open_transport() sometimes internally uses the former,
sometimes the latter family, but suggests it only calls the former via
its name. Hence, let's avoid this confusion, and generically rename the
call to bus_connect_transport().
Similar for all related calls.
And while we are at it, also change cgls + cgtop to do direct systemd
connections where possible, since all they do is talk to systemd itself.
Previously, we'd allocate it sometimes from the heap, but otherwise let
it point directly int argv[]. Let's clean this up, so that we know
exactly how to release its resources, and do so at the end.
logind sends out wall messages now, let's remove this from the systemctl
client side hence. If people build systemd without logind support they
won't get wall messages now, but that's OK.
This sounds like the better place to expose this than in "systemd-notify
--booted".
Also document the so far undocumented "unknown" state the command might
return. And rearrange the table of states documented to be more like the
one for "is-running".
Also, don't document the precise exit code of this function, just say
errors are reported != 0 or > 0...
This also allows us to drop build.h from a ton of files, hence do so.
Since we touched the #includes of those files, let's order them properly
according to CODING_STYLE.
Let's underline the header line of the table shown by cgtop, how it is
customary for tables. In order to do this, let's introduce new ANSI
underline macros, and clean up the existing ones as side effect.
If code enqueues a message on one of the default busses, but doesn't
sync on it, and immediately drops the reference to the bus again, it
will stay queued and consume memory. Intrdouce a new call
sd_bus_default_flush_close() that can be invoked at the end of programs
(or threads) and flushes out all unsent messages on any of the default
busses.
When a systemd service running in a container exits with a non-zero
code, it can be useful to terminate the container immediately and get
the exit code back to the host, when systemd-nspawn returns. This was
not possible to do. This patch adds the following to make it possible:
- Add a read-only "ExitCode" property on PID 1's "Manager" bus object.
By default, it is 0 so the behaviour stays the same as previously.
- Add a method "SetExitCode" on the same object. The method fails when
called on baremetal: it is only allowed in containers or in user
session.
- Add support in systemctl to call "systemctl exit 42". It reuses the
existing code for user session.
- Add exit.target and systemd-exit.service to the system instance.
- Change main() to actually call systemd-shutdown to exit() with the
correct value.
- Add verb 'exit' in systemd-shutdown with parameter --exit-code
- Update systemctl manpage.
I used the following to test it:
| $ sudo rkt --debug --insecure-skip-verify run \
| --mds-register=false --local docker://busybox \
| --exec=/bin/chroot -- /proc/1/root \
| systemctl --force exit 42
| ...
| Container rkt-895a0cba-5c66-4fa5-831c-e3f8ddc5810d failed with error code 42.
| $ echo $?
| 42

This adds support for the new "pids" cgroup controller of 4.3 kernels.
It allows accounting the number of tasks in a cgroup and enforcing
limits on it.
This adds two new setting TasksAccounting= and TasksMax= to each unit,
as well as a gloabl option DefaultTasksAccounting=.
This also updated "cgtop" to optionally make use of the new
kernel-provided accounting.
systemctl has been updated to show the number of tasks for each service
if it is available.
This patch also adds correct support for undoing memory limits for units
using a MemoryLimit=infinity syntax. We do the same for TasksMax= now
and hence keep things in sync here.
off_t is a really weird type as it is usually 64bit these days (at least
in sane programs), but could theoretically be 32bit. We don't support
off_t as 32bit builds though, but still constantly deal with safely
converting from off_t to other types and back for no point.
Hence, never use the type anymore. Always use uint64_t instead. This has
various benefits, including that we can expose these values directly as
D-Bus properties, and also that the values parse the same in all cases.
Thus we allow (non-interactive) polkit auth to kick in for legacy commands
(halt, poweroff, reboot, telinit) as well.
Fixes (another aspect of) issue #213.
In all cases where the function (or cg_is_empty_recursive()) ignoring
the calling process is actually wrong, as a process keeps a cgroup busy
regardless if its the current one or another. Hence, let's simplify
things and drop the "ignore_self" parameter.
Enable unprivileged users to set wall message on a shutdown
operation. When the message is set via the --message option,
it is logged together with the default shutdown message.
$ systemctl reboot --message "Applied kernel updates."
$ journalctl -b -1
...
systemd-logind[27]: System is rebooting. (Applied kernel updates.)
...
When showing the status of the "-.slice" slice root unit (whose reported
cgroup path is ""), we suppressed the cgroup tree so far, because
skipped it for all unit with an empty cgroup path. Let's fix that, and
properly handle the empty cgroup path.
Fix error message:
-->--
Code should not be reached 'Unknown action.' at
src/systemctl/systemctl.c:6382, function halt_now(). Aborting.

--<--
when executing 'reboot -f' from a system running a kexec kernel.
sd_bus_flush_close_unref() is a call that simply combines sd_bus_flush()
(which writes all unwritten messages out) + sd_bus_close() (which
terminates the connection, releasing all unread messages) +
sd_bus_unref() (which frees the connection).
The combination of this call is used pretty frequently in systemd tools
right before exiting, and should also be relevant for most external
clients, and is hence useful to cover in a call of its own.
Previously the combination of the three calls was already done in the
_cleanup_bus_close_unref_ macro, but this was only available internally.
Also see #327
Correctly support cases when the EDITOR environment variable and friends
also contain arguments. For example, to run emacs in terminal only, one
can say:
EDITOR="emacs -nw" systemctl edit myservice
This adds a "char *extra" parameter to tempfn_xxxxxx(), tempfn_random(),
tempfn_ranomd_child(). If non-NULL this string is included in the middle
of the newly created file name. This is useful for being able to
distuingish the kind of temporary file when we see one.
This also adds tests for the three call.
For now, we don't make use of this at all, but port all users over.
If you use bus_map_all_properties(), you must be aware that it might
touch output variables even though it may fail. This is, because we parse
many different bus-properties and cannot tell how to clean them up, in
case we fail deep down in the parser.
Fix all callers of bus_map_all_properties() to correctly cleanup any
context structures at all times.
Also, when the child is potentially long-running make sure to set a
death signal.
Also, ignore the result of the reset operations explicitly by casting
them to (void).
If the EDITOR environment variable is not set, the Debian policy
recommends to use the /usr/bin/editor program as default editor.
This file is managed via the dpkg alternatives mechanism and typically
used in Debian/Ubuntu and derivatives to configure the default editor.
See section 11.4 of the Debian policy [1].
Therefor prefer /usr/bin/editor over specific editors if available.

If there is both a SysV init.d script and a systemd unit for a given name, we
want to do the same enable/disable operation for both, instead of just on the
systemd unit. This keeps the enablement status in sync so that switching init
systems behaves as expected.
Introduce /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install [--root=] <action> <name>
abstraction, replacing the direct calling of chkconfig. This allows
distributions to call their specific tools like update-rc.d without patching
systemd.
Ship systemd-sysv-install.SKELETON as an example for packagers how to implement
this.
Drop the --enable-chkconfig configure option.
Document this in README and point to it in NEWS.
