It's an auxiliary function to the UnitInfo structures, and very generic.
Let's hence move it over to the other code operating with UnitInfo, even
if it's not used by code outside of systemctl (yet).
If we set O_NONBLOCK on stdin/stdout directly this means the flag is
left set when we abort abnormally, as we don't get the chance to reset
it again on exit. This might confuse progrms invoking us. Moreover, if
programs invoking us continue to write to the stdout passed to us, they
might be confused by non-blocking mode too.
Hence, let's avoid this if possible: let's reopen stdin/stdout and set
O_NONBLOCK only on the reopend fds, leaving the original fds as they
are.

Also, even if login.defs are not present, don't start allocating at 1, but at
SYSTEM_UID_MIN.
Fixes#9769.
The test is adjusted. Actually, it was busted before, because sysusers would
never use SYSTEM_GID_MIN, so if SYSTEM_GID_MIN was different than
SYSTEM_UID_MIN, the tests would fail. On all "normal" systems the two are
equal, so we didn't notice. Since sysusers now always uses the minimum of the
two, we only need to substitute one value.
We don't (and shouldn't I think) look at them when determining the type of the
user, but they should be used during user/group allocation. (For example, an
admin may specify SYS_UID_MIN==200 to allow statically numbered users that are
shared with other systems in the range 1–199.)
It makes little sense to make the boundary between systemd and user guids
configurable. Nevertheless, a completely fixed compile-time define is not
enough in two scenarios:
- the systemd_uid_max boundary has moved over time. The default used to be
500 for a long time. Systems which are upgraded over time might have users
in the wrong range, but changing existing systems is complicated and
expensive (offline disks, backups, remote systems, read-only media, etc.)
- systems are used in a heterogenous enviornment, where some vendors pick
one value and others another.
So let's make this boundary overridable using /etc/login.defs.
Fixes#3855, #10184.
This is like membarrier() I guess and basically just exposes CPU
functionality via kernel syscall on some archs. Let's whitelist it for
everyone.
Fixes: #17197
After https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/16981 only the presence of crypt_gensalt_ra
is checked, but there are cases where that function is available but crypt_preferred_method
is not, and they are used in the same ifdef.
Add a check for the latter as well.
Fixes#17035. We use "," as the separator between arguments in fstab and crypttab
options field, but the kernel started using "," within arguments. Users will need
to escape those nested commas.
If the whole call is simple and we don't need to look at the return value
apart from the conditional, let's use a form without assignment of the return
value. When the function call is more complicated, it still makes sense to
use a temporary variable.
Let's make umount_verbose() more like mount_verbose_xyz(), i.e. take log
level and flags param. In particular the latter matters, since we
typically don't actually want to follow symlinks when unmounting.
