We already have the terminal open, hence pass the fd we got to
ask_password_tty(), so that it doesn't have to reopen it a second time.
This is mostly an optimization, but it has the nice benefit of making us
independent from RLIMIT_NOFILE issues and so on, as we don't need to
allocate another fd needlessly.
We should rather sleep to much than too little. This otherwise might
result in a busy loop, because we slept too little and then recheck
again coming to the conclusion we need to go to sleep again, and so on.
We should be careful with these types, and if we do convert between
"int" and "ssize_t" we should do so explicitly rather than implicitly.
Otherwise this just looks like a bug.
Let's forget all relevant terminal features we learnt when we make a
console or /dev/null stdin/stdout/stderr.
Also, while we are at it, let's drop the various _unlikely_ and
_likely_ annotiations around the terminal feature caches. In many cases
we call the relevant functions only once in which cases the annotations
are likely to do just harm and no good. After all we can't know if the
specific code will call us just once or many times...
This modernizes acquire_terminal() in a couple of ways:
1. The three boolean arguments are replaced by a flags parameter, that
should be more descriptive in what it does.
2. We now properly handle inotify queue overruns
3. We use _cleanup_ for closing the fds now, to shorten the code quite a
bit.
Behaviour should not be altered by this.
I think if we log the error as being _ignored_, we should also consider
the event as handled and clear it. This was the behaviour prior to
575b300b (PR #7968).
I don't think we particularly wanted to change behaviour and keep retrying.
Sometimes that's useful, other times you cause more problems by filling the
logs.
Plus a nearby typo fix.
This adds a new bus call to service and scope units called
AttachProcesses() that moves arbitrary processes into the cgroup of the
unit. The primary user for this new API is systemd itself: the systemd
--user instance uses this call of the systemd --system instance to
migrate processes if itself gets the request to migrate processes and
the kernel refuses this due to access restrictions.
The primary use-case of this is to make "systemd-run --scope --user …"
invoked from user session scopes work correctly on pure cgroupsv2
environments. There, the kernel refuses to migrate processes between two
unprivileged-owned cgroups unless the requestor as well as the ownership
of the closest parent cgroup all match. This however is not the case
between the session-XYZ.scope unit of a login session and the
user@ABC.service of the systemd --user instance.
The new logic always tries to move the processes on its own, but if
that doesn't work when being the user manager, then the system manager
is asked to do it instead.
The new operation is relatively restrictive: it will only allow to move
the processes like this if the caller is root, or the UID of the target
unit, caller and process all match. Note that this means that
unprivileged users cannot attach processes to scope units, as those do
not have "owning" users (i.e. they have now User= field).
Fixes: #3388
This corrects the control flow: when we reuse the API bus as system bus,
let's definitely invoke bus_init_system() too, so that it is called
regardless how we acquired the bus object.
(Note that this doesn't actually change anything, as we only inherit the
bus like this in system mode, and bus_init_system() doesn't do anything
in system bus, besides writing a log message)
Let's better be safe than sorry, and validate that api_bus is not NULL
before we send messages to it. Of course, strictly speaking this
shouldn't actually be necessary, as the tracker object should not exist
without the bus, but let's be extra sure.
Previously, we'd synchronize bus names immediately when we succeeded
connecting to the bus, potentially even before coldplugging the units.
This was problematic, as synchronizing bus names meant invoking the
per-unit name change handler function which might change the unit's
state — which will result in consistency when done before we coldplug
things.
With this change we instead enqueue a job for the event loop to resync
the names in a later loop iteration, i.e. at a point where we know
coldplugging has finished.
This splits out the code that translates a unit name into a Unit* object
from method_get_unit(), and reuses it all other functions that operate
similar to it. This effectively means all those calls now optionally
take an empty unit string which now means the same as the client's unit.
This useful behaviour of the GetUnit() bus call is thus extended to all
other matching bus calls.
Similar, the same logic from method_load_unit() is also generalized and
reused wherever appropriate.
This patch does four things:
1. Adds more comments that clarify the order in which things appear in
the file
2. All entries are placed in the order in which their SD_BUS_METHOD()
macros appear in the C vtables.
3. A couple of missing entries are added that should be open to all or
do polkit
4. Corrects the interface name for the GetProcesses() calls. They belong
to the per-unit interface, not to Unit
Let's also use the journal if it is currently reloading. In that state
it should also be able to process our requests. Moreover, we might
otherwise end up disconnecting/reconnecting from the journal without
really any need to hence, relax the check accordingly.
This removes the current bus_init() call, as it had multiple problems:
it munged handling of the three bus connections we care about (private,
"api" and system) into one, even though the conditions when which was
ready are very different. It also added redundant logging, as the
individual calls it called all logged on their own anyway.
The three calls bus_init_api(), bus_init_private() and bus_init_system()
are now made public. A new call manager_dbus_is_running() is added that
works much like manager_journal_is_running() and is a lot more careful
when checking whether dbus is around. Optionally it checks the unit's
deserialized_state rather than state, in order to accomodate for cases
where we cant to connect to the bus before deserializing the
"subscribed" list, before coldplugging the units.
manager_recheck_dbus() is added, that works a lot like
manager_recheck_journal() and is invoked in unit_notify(), i.e. when
units change state.
All in all this should make handling a bit more alike to journal
handling, and it also fixes one major bug: when running in user mode
we'll now connect to the system bus early on, without conditionalizing
this in anyway.
I figure saying "systemd" here was a typo, and it should have been
"system". (Yes, it becomes very hard after a while typing "system"
correctly if you type "systemd" so often.) That said, "systemd" in some
ways is actually more correct, since BPF might be available for the
system instance but not in the user instance.
Either way, talking of "this systemd" is weird, let's reword this to be
"this manager", to emphasize that it's the local instance of systemd
where BPF is not available, but that it might be available otherwise.
This reworks is_kernel_thread() a bit. Instead of checking whether
/proc/$pid/cmdline is entirely empty we now parse the 'flags' field from
/proc/$pid/stat and check the PF_KTHREAD flag, which directly encodes
whether something is a kernel thread.
Why all this? With current kernels userspace processes can set their
command line to empty too (through PR_SET_MM_ARG_START and friends), and
could potentially confuse us. Hence, let's use a more reliable way to
detect kernels like this.
Let's simplify things a bit: we so far called both functions every
single time, let's just merge one into the other, so that we have fewer
functions to call.
Currently we allowed delegation for alluntis with cgroup backing
except for slices. Let's make this a bit more strict for now, and only
allow this in service and scope units.
Let's also add a generic accessor unit_cgroup_delegate() for checking
whether a unit has delegation turned on that checks the new bool first.
Also, when doing transient units, let's explcitly refuse turning on
delegation for unit types that don#t support it. This is mostly
cosmetical as we wouldn't act on the delegation request anyway, but
certainly helpful for debugging.
If `journalctl` take a long time to process messages, and during that
time journal file rotation occurs, a `journalctl` client will keep
those rotated files open until it calls `sd_journal_process()`, which
typically happens as a result of calling `sd_journal_wait()` below in
the "following" case. By periodically calling `sd_journal_process()`
during the processing loop we shrink the window of time a client
instance has open file descriptors for rotated (deleted) journal
files.
(Lennart: slightly reworked version, that dropped some of the commenting
which was solved otherwise)
In that case we have no inotify fd yet, and there's nothing to process
hence. Let's make the call a NOP.
(Previously, without this change we'd end up trying to read off inotify
fd -1, which is quite a problem... 😢)
This ensures that clients can't keep all files pinned interfering with
our vacuuming logic.
This should fix the last issue pointed out in #7998 and #8032Fixes: #7998
This new helper not only removes a file from a directory but also
ensures its space on disk is deallocated, by either punching a hole over
the full file or truncating the file afterwards if the file's link
counter is 0. This is useful in "vacuuming" algorithms to ensure that
client's can't keep the disk space the vacuuming is supposed to recover
pinned simply by keeping an fd open to it.
This adds proper handling of IN_Q_OVERFLOW: when the inotify queue runs
over we'll reiterate all directories we are looking at. At the same time
we'll mark all files and directories we encounter that way with a
generation counter we first increased. All files and directories not
marked like this are then unloaded.
With this logic we do the best when the inotify queue overflows: we
synchronize our in-memory state again with what's on disk.
This contains some refactoring of the directory logic, to share more
code between uuid directories and "root" directories and generally make
things a bit more readable by splitting things up into smaller bits.
