This macro will read a pointer of any type, return it, and set the
pointer to NULL. This is useful as an explicit concept of passing
ownership of a memory area between pointers.
This takes inspiration from Rust:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#method.take
and was suggested by Alan Jenkins (@sourcejedi).
It drops ~160 lines of code from our codebase, which makes me like it.
Also, I think it clarifies passing of ownership, and thus helps
readability a bit (at least for the initiated who know the new macro)
We have only three bits of space, i.e. 8 possible classes. Immediately reject
anything outside of that range. Add the fuzzer test case and an additional
unit test.

"noreturn" is reserved and can be used in other header files we include:
[ 16s] In file included from /usr/include/gcrypt.h:30:0,
[ 16s] from ../src/journal/journal-file.h:26,
[ 16s] from ../src/journal/journal-vacuum.c:31:
[ 16s] /usr/include/gpg-error.h:1544:46: error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘)’ token
[ 16s] void gpgrt_log_bug (const char *fmt, ...) GPGRT_ATTR_NR_PRINTF(1,2);
Here we include grcrypt.h (which in turns include gpg-error.h) *after* we
"noreturn" was defined in macro.h.
At various places we only want to close fds if they are not
stdin/stdout/stderr, i.e. fds 0, 1, 2. Let's add a unified helper call
for that, and port everything over.
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.
we still invoke ssh unnecessarily when there in incompatible or erreneous input
The fallow-up to finish that would make the code a bit more verbose,
as it would require repeating this bit:
```
r = bus_connect_transport(arg_transport, arg_host, false, &bus);
if (r < 0) {
log_error_errno(r, "Failed to create bus connection: %m");
goto finish;
}
sd_bus_set_allow_interactive_authorization(bus, arg_ask_password);
```
in every verb, after parsing.
v2: add waitpid() to avoid a zombie process, switch to SIGTERM from SIGKILL
v3: refactor, wait in bus_start_address()
We have the raw_getpid() definition in place anyway, and it's certainly
beneficial to expose the same semantics on pre glibc 2.24 and after it
too, hence always bypass glibc for this, and always cache things on our
side.
Fixes: #8113
When we crash we freeze() our-self (or possibly we reboot the machine if
that is configured). However, calling pause() is very unhelpful thing to
do. We should at least continue to do what init systems being doing
since 70's and that is reaping zombies. Otherwise zombies start to
accumulate on the system which is a very bad thing. As that can prevent
admin from taking manual steps to reboot the machine in somewhat
graceful manner (e.g. manually stopping services, unmounting data
volumes and calling reboot -f).
Fixes#7783
We should be careful with errno in cleanup functions, and not alter it
under any circumstances. In the safe_close cleanup handlers we are
already safe in that regard, but let's add similar protections on other
cleanup handlers that invoke system calls.
Why bother? Cleanup handlers insert code at function return in
non-obvious ways. Hence, code that sets errno and returns should not be
confused by us overrding the errno from a cleanup handler.
This is a paranoia fix only, I am not aware where this actually mattered
in real-life situations.
This new flag will cause safe_fork() to wait for the forked off child
before returning. This allows us to unify a number of cases where we
immediately wait on the forked off child, witout running any code in the
parent after the fork, and without direct interest in the precise exit
status of the process, except recgonizing EXIT_SUCCESS vs everything
else.
This renames wait_for_terminate_and_warn() to
wait_for_terminate_and_check(), and adds a flags parameter, that
controls how much to log: there's one flag that means we log about
abnormal stuff, and another one that controls whether we log about
non-zero exit codes. Finally, there's a shortcut flag value for logging
in both cases, as that's what we usually use.
All callers are accordingly updated. At three occasions duplicate logging
is removed, i.e. where the old function was called but logged in the
caller, too.
First of all, let's return pid_t, which appears to be the correct type
given that we return PIDs, and it#s what fork() uses too.
Most importantly though, flush out our PID cache, so that the call
becomes compatible with our getpid_cached() logic.
We make assumptions about the comm name we set via PR_SET_NAME: that it
would reflect the process name, but that's only the case for the main
thread. Moreover, we cache the mmap() region without locking.
Let's hence be safe rather than sorry and support all this only in the
main thread.
It's a relatively small wrapper around safe_fork() now, hence let's move
it over, and make its signature even more alike. Also, set a different
process name for the polkit and askpw agents.
This adds a new safe_fork() wrapper around fork() and makes use of it
everywhere. The new wrapper does a couple of things we previously did
manually and separately in a safer, more correct and automatic way:
1. Optionally resets signal handlers/mask in the child
2. Sets a name on all processes we fork off right after forking off (and
the patch assigns useful names for all processes we fork off now,
following a systematic naming scheme: always enclosed in () – in order
to indicate that these are not proper, exec()ed processes, but only
forked off children, and if the process is long-running with only our
own code, without execve()'ing something else, it gets am "sd-" prefix.)
3. Optionally closes all file descriptors in the child
4. Optionally sets a PR_SET_DEATHSIG to SIGTERM in the child, in a safe
way so that the parent dying before this happens being handled
safely.
5. Optionally reopens the logs
6. Optionally connects stdin/stdout/stderr to /dev/null
7. Debug logs about the forked off processes.
Remount, and subsequent umount, attempts can hang for inaccessible network
based mount points. This can leave a system in a hard hang state that
requires a hard reset in order to recover. This change moves the remount,
and umount attempts into separate child processes. The remount and umount
operations will block for up to 90 seconds (DEFAULT_TIMEOUT_USEC). Should
those waits fail, the parent will issue a SIGKILL to the child and continue
with the shutdown efforts.
In addition, instead of only reporting some additional errors on the final
attempt, failures are reported as they occur.
These helper calls are potentially called often, and allocate FILE*
objects internally for a very short period of time, let's turn off
locking for them too.
The advantage is that is the name is mispellt, cpp will warn us.

- fix incorrect setting of HAVE_LIBIDN2
This reverts commit ee043777be.
It broke almost everywhere it touched. The places that
handn't been converted, were mostly followed by special
handling for the invalid PID `0`. That explains why they
tested for `pid < 0` instead of `pid <= 0`.
I think that one was the first commit I reviewed, heh.
glibc appears to propagate different errors in different ways, let's fix
this up, so that our own code doesn't get confused by this.
See #6752 + #6737 for details.
Fixes: #6755
Let's lock the personality to the currently set one, if nothing is
specifically specified. But do so with a grain of salt, and never
default to any exotic personality here, but only PER_LINUX or
PER_LINUX32.
This moves pretty much all uses of getpid() over to getpid_raw(). I
didn't specifically check whether the optimization is worth it for each
replacement, but in order to keep things simple and systematic I
switched over everything at once.
This patch is a bit more complex thant I hoped. In particular the single
IOScheduling= property exposed on the bus is split up into
IOSchedulingClass= and IOSchedulingPriority= (though compat is
retained). Otherwise the asymmetry between setting props and getting
them is a bit too nasty.
Fixes#5613
PR_SET_MM_ARG_START allows us to relatively cleanly implement process renaming.
However, it's only available with privileges. Hence, let's try to make use of
it, and if we can't fall back to the traditional way of overriding argv[0].
This removes size restrictions on the process name shown in argv[] at least for
privileged processes.
