systemd-networkd runs as user "systemd-network" and thus is not privileged to
set the transient hostname:
systemd-networkd[516]: ens3: Could not set hostname: Interactive authentication required.
Standard polkit *.policy files do not have a syntax for granting privileges to
a user, so ship a pklocalauthority (for polkit < 106) and a JavaScript rules
file (for polkit >= 106) that grants the "systemd-network" system user that
privilege.
Add DnsmasqClientTest.test_transient_hostname() test to networkd-test.py to
cover this. Make do_test() a bit more flexible by interpreting "coldplug==None"
as "test sets up the interface by itself". Change DnsmasqClientTest to set up
test_eth42 with a fixed MAC address so that we can configure dnsmasq to send a
special host name for that.

If the "systemctl start" happens at an "unlucky" time such as 1000.9 seconds
and then e. g. runs for 2.6 s (sleep 2 plus the overhead of starting the unit
and waiting for it) the END_SEC would be 1003.5s which would round to 1004,
making the difference 4. On busier testbeds the overhead apparently can take a
bit more than 0.5s. The main point is really that it doesn't wait that much
longer, so "-le 4" seems perfectly fine. We allow up to 1.5s in the subsequent
"wait5fail" test below too.

DNS servers which have route-only domains should only be used for
the specified domains. Routing queries about other domains there is a privacy
violation, prone to fail (as that DNS server was not meant to be used for other
domains), and puts unnecessary load onto that server.
Introduce a new helper function dns_server_limited_domains() that checks if the
DNS server should only be used for some selected domains, i. e. has some
route-only domains without "~.". Use that when determining whether to query it
in the scope, and when writing resolv.conf.
Extend the test_route_only_dns() case to ensure that the DNS server limited to
~company does not appear in resolv.conf. Add test_route_only_dns_all_domains()
to ensure that a server that also has ~. does appear in resolv.conf as global
name server. These reproduce #3420.
Add a new test_resolved_domain_restricted_dns() test case that verifies that
domain-limited DNS servers are only being used for those domains. This
reproduces #3421.
Clarify what a "routing domain" is in the manpage.

If the ESP is not mounted with "iocharset=ascii", but with "iocharset=utf8"
(which is for example the default in Debian), the file system becomes case
sensitive. This means that a file created as "FooBarBaz" cannot be accessed as
"foobarbaz" since those are then considered different files.
Moreover, a file created as "FooBar" can then also not be accessed as "foobar",
and it also prevents such a file from being created, as both would use the same
8.3 short name "FOOBAR".
Even though the UEFI specification [0] does give the canonical spelling for
the files mentioned above, not all implementations completely conform to that,
so it's possible that those files would already exist, but with a different
spelling, causing subtle bugs when scanning or modifying the ESP.
While the proper fix would of course be that everybody conformed to the
standard, we can work around this problem by just referencing the files by
their 8.3 short names, i.e. using upper case.

* test: check resolved generated resolv.conf in networkd-test
Directly verify the contents of /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf instead of
/etc/resolv.conf. The latter might be a plain file or a symlink to something
else (like Debian's resolvconf output), and in these cases we cannot make
strong assumptions about the contents.
Drop the "/etc/resolv.conf is a symlink" conditions and the "resolv.conf can
have at most three nameservers" alternatives, as we know that resolved always
adds all nameservers.
Explicitly start resolved at the start of a test to ensure that it is running.
* test: get along with existing system search domains in resolv.conf
The previous change has uncovered a bug in the tests: Existing search domains
can exist in resolv.conf which test_search_domains{,_too_long} didn't take into account.
As existing domains take some of the "max 6 domains" and "max 255 chars" limit,
don't expect that the last items from our test data actually appears in the
output, just the first few.
With commit 6f7da49d00 route-only domains do not get put into resolv.conf's
"search" list any more. Add a comment about the tri-state, to clarify its
semantics and why we are passing a bool parameter into an int type. Also add a
test case for it.
If run_qemu() exits with non-zero, this either meant that QEMU was not
available (which should be a SKIP) or that QEMU timed out if $QEMU_TIMEOUT was
set (which then should be a FAIL).
Limit the exit code of run_qemu() to QEMU availability only, and track timeouts
separately through the new $TIMED_OUT variable, which is then checked in
check_result_qemu().
Do the same for $NSPAWN_TIMEOUT and run_nspawn() so that nspawn and QEMU work
similarly.
The result of check_nspawn does not mean much, and this forgot to ask
check_nspawn() whether nspawn can be used at all. This brings
TEST-12-ISSUE-3171 in line with other nspawn tests.
The long name is just too hard to type. We generally should avoid using
acronyms too liberally, if they aren't established enough, but it appears that
"RA" is known well enough. Internally we call the option "ipv6_accept_ra"
anyway, and the kernel also exposes it under this name. Hence, let's rename the
IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements= setting and the
[IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements] section to IPv6AcceptRA= and [IPv6AcceptRA].
The old setting IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements= is kept for compatibility with
older configuration. (However the section [IPv6AcceptRouterAdvertisements] is
not, as it was never available in a published version of systemd.
There are many cgroups-related changes (thanks, @htejun!)
This commit will simplify testing a bit.
Use:
make run UNIFIED_CGROUP_HIERARCHY=yes to enable cgroup-v2
make run UNIFIED_CGROUP_HIERARCHY=no to enable cgroup-v1
Write comments about "too many search domains" and "Total length of all search
domains is too long" just once. Also put it on a separate line, as
resolv.conf(5) only specifies comments in a line by themselves.
This is ugly to do if write_resolv_conf_search() gets called once for every
search domain. So change it to receive the complete OrderedSet instead and do
the iteration by itself.
Add test cases to networkd-test.py.
