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)
This adds an internal API that permits querying metadata from any type
of image, including both subvol/dir images, and raw/block images. In the
latter case we use the new dissection API we just added.
This adds some basic discovery of block device images for nspawn and
friends. Note that this doesn't add searching for block devices using
udev, but instead expects users to symlink relevant block devices into
/var/lib/machines. Discovery is hence done exactly like for
dir/subvol/raw file images, except that what is found may be a (symlink
to) a block device.
For now, we do not support cloning these images, but removal, renaming
and read-only flags are supported to the point where that makes sense.
Fixe: #6990
This adds a unified "copy_flags" parameter to all copy_xyz() function
calls, replacing the various boolean flags so far used. This should make
many invocations more readable as it is clear what behaviour is
precisely requested. This also prepares ground for adding support for
more modes later on.
Since nspawn looks for them, importd now downloads them, and mkosi
generates them, let's make sure they also processed correctly on all
machined operations.
Given that other file systems (notably: xfs) support reflinks these days, let's
extend the file system snapshotting logic to fall back to plan copies or
reflinks when full btrfs subvolume snapshots are not available.
This essentially makes "systemd-nspawn --ephemeral" and "systemd-nspawn
--template=" available on non-btrfs subvolumes. Of course, both operations will
still be slower on non-btrfs than on btrfs (simply because reflinking each file
individually in a directory tree is still slower than doing this in one step
for a whole subvolume), but it's probably good enough for many cases, and we
should provide the users with the tools, they have to figure out what's good
for them.
Note that "machinectl clone" already had a fallback like this in place, this
patch generalizes this, and adds similar support to our other cases.
Fall back to a normal copy operation when the backing file system isn't btrfs,
and hence doesn't support cheap snapshotting. Of course, this will be slow, but
given that the execution is asynchronous now, this should be OK.
Fixes: #1308
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.
With this change we understand more than just leaf quota groups for
btrfs file systems. Specifically:
- When we create a subvolume we can now optionally add the new subvolume
to all qgroups its parent subvolume was member of too. Alternatively
it is also possible to insert an intermediary quota group between the
parent's qgroups and the subvolume's leaf qgroup, which is useful for
a concept of "subtree" qgroups, that contain a subvolume and all its
children.
- The remove logic for subvolumes has been updated to optionally remove
any leaf qgroups or "subtree" qgroups, following the logic above.
- The snapshot logic for subvolumes has been updated to replicate the
original qgroup setup of the source, if it follows the "subtree"
design described above. It will not cover qgroup setups that introduce
arbitrary qgroups, especially those orthogonal to the subvolume
hierarchy.
This also tries to be more graceful when setting up /var/lib/machines as
btrfs. For example, if mkfs.btrfs is missing we don't even try to set it
up as loopback device.

machined is getting an EACCES when trying to create the lock file for
images because the mode on /run/systemd/nspawn/locks is 0600.
mkdir("/run/systemd/nspawn/locks", 0600) = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
stat("/run/systemd/nspawn/locks", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0600, st_size=40, ...}) = 0
open("/run/systemd/nspawn/locks/inode-41:256", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_NOCTTY|O_NOFOLLOW|O_CLOEXEC, 0600) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
This commit adjusts the mode to 0700 to correct the issue.
Let's unify the code that checks whether an fd is on btrfs a bit.
(Also, rename btrfs_is_snapshot() to btrfs_is_subvol(), since that's
usually how this is referred to in our code)
renameat2() exists since Linux 3.15 but btrfs support for the flag
RENAME_NOREPLACE was added later.
This patch implements a fallback when renameat2() returns EINVAL.
EINVAL is the error returned when the filesystem does not support one of
the flags.
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.
After all it is now much more like strjoin() than strappend(). At the
same time, add support for NULL sentinels, even if they are normally not
necessary.
