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)
There isn't much difference, but in general we prefer to use the standard
functions. glibc provides reallocarray since version 2.26.
I moved explicit_bzero is configure test to the bottom, so that the two stdlib
functions are at the bottom.
The function `strv_join_quoted()` is now not used, and has a bug
in the buffer size calculation when the strings needs to escaped,
as reported in #8056.
So, let's remove the function.
Closes#8056.
strv_make_nulstr was creating a nulstr which was not a valid nulstr,
because it was missing the terminating NUL. This didn't cause any issues,
because strv_parse_nulstr correctly parsed the result, using the
separately specified length.
But it's confusing to have something called nulstr which really isn't.
It is likely that somebody will try to use strv_make_nulstr() in
some other place, incorrectly.
This patch changes strv_parse_nulstr() to produce a valid nulstr, and
changes the output length parameter to be the minimum number of bytes
which can be later on parsed by strv_parse_nulstr(). This allows the
only user in ask-password-api to be slightly simplified.

Fixes#3689.
With this change the logic for placing transient unit files and drop-ins
generated via "systemctl set-property" is reworked.
The latter are now placed in the newly introduced "control" unit file
directory. The fomer are now placed in the "transient" unit file directory.
Note that the properties originally set when a transient unit was created will
be written to and stay in the transient unit file directory, while later
changes are done via drop-ins.
This is preparation for a later "systemctl revert" addition, where existing
drop-ins are flushed out, but the original transient definition is restored.
Empty strings were ignored in strv_join, but only if they were at the beginning
of the string. Empty strings after at least one non-empty item were treated
normally.
Previously:
{"x"} → "x"
{"x", ""} → "x"
{"x", "", ""} → "x::"
{""} → ""
{"", ""} → ""
{"", "", ""} → ""
{"", "x"} → "x"
{"", "x", ""} → "x:"
Now:
{"x"} → "x"
{"x", ""} → "x"
{"x", "", ""} → "x::"
{""} → ""
{"", ""} → ":"
{"", "", ""} → "::"
{"", "x"} → ":x"
{"", "x", ""} → "❌"
The call combines outputing a string with prefixing it with a space, optionally. This is useful to shorten the logic
for outputing lists of strings, that are space separated.
Previously, .network files only knew a vaguely defined "Domains=" concept, for which the documentation declared it was
the "DNS domain" for the network connection, without specifying what that means.
With this the Domains setting is reworked, so that there are now "routing" domains and "search" domains. The former are
to be used by resolved to route DNS request to specific network interfaces, the latter is to be used for searching
single-label hostnames with (in addition to being used for routing). Both settings are configured in the "Domains="
setting. Normal domain names listed in it are now considered search domains (for compatibility with existing setups),
while those prefixed with "~" are considered routing domains only. To route all lookups to a specific interface the
routing domain "." may be used, referring to the root domain. An alternative syntax for this is the "*", as was already
implemented before using the "wildcard" domain concept.
This commit adds proper parsers for this new logic, and exposes this via the sd-network API. This information is not
used by resolved yet, this will be added in a later commit.
There are more than enough calls doing string manipulations to deserve
its own files, hence do something about it.
This patch also sorts the #include blocks of all files that needed to be
updated, according to the sorting suggestions from CODING_STYLE. Since
pretty much every file needs our string manipulation functions this
effectively means that most files have sorted #include blocks now.
Also touches a few unrelated include files.
This adds support for caching harddisk passwords in the kernel keyring
if it is available, thus supporting caching without Plymouth being
around.
This is also useful for hooking up "gdm-auto-login" with the collected
boot-time harddisk password, in order to support gnome keyring
passphrase unlocking via the HDD password, if it is the same.
Any passwords added to the kernel keyring this way have a timeout of
2.5min at which time they are purged from the kernel.
This adds support for naming file descriptors passed using socket
activation. The names are passed in a new $LISTEN_FDNAMES= environment
variable, that matches the existign $LISTEN_FDS= one and contains a
colon-separated list of names.
This also adds support for naming fds submitted to the per-service fd
store using FDNAME= in the sd_notify() message.
This also adds a new FileDescriptorName= setting for socket unit files
to set the name for fds created by socket units.
This also adds a new call sd_listen_fds_with_names(), that is similar to
sd_listen_fds(), but also returns the names of the fds.
systemd-activate gained the new --fdname= switch to specify a name for
testing socket activation.
This is based on #1247 by Maciej Wereski.
Fixes#1247.
This modifies the strv in-place, replacing strings with their escaped
version. It's mostly just a convenience function for when you need to
join a strv together because it's passed as a string to something, and
the separator needs escaping.
strv_split_extract is to strv_split_quotes as extract_first_word was to
unquote_first_word.
Now there's extract_first_word for extracting a single argument,
extract_many_words for extracting a bounded number of arguments,
and strv_split_extract for extracting an arbitrary number of arguments.
