Unlike strv_find_prefix() the new call will return a pointer to the
suffix of the item we found, instead of the whole item. This is more
closer inline with what startswith() does, and allows us to simplify a
couple of invocations.
This way we can use it on non-const strings, and don't end up with a
const'ified result.
This is similar to libc's strstr() which also takes a const string but
returns a non-const one.
This turns journalctl to the counterpart of systemd-cat.
Messages sent with
systemd-cat --identifier foo --prioritiy debug
can now be shown with
journalctl --identifier foo --prioritiy debug
"--identifier" is not merged with "--unit" to make a clear
distinction between syslog and systemd units.
syslog identifiers can be chosen freely by anyone.
Previously systemctl died with message
-bash-4.2# systemctl --root /rawhi list-unit-files
(src/systemctl/systemctl.c:868) Out of memory.
in the case that no unit files were found in the --root
or the directory did not exist.
So lets return ENOENT in the case that --root does not exist
and empty list in the case that there are no unit files.
Negative switches are a bad un-normalized thing. We alerady have some,
but we should try harder to avoid intrdoucing new ones.
Hence, instead of adding two switches:
--foobar
--no-foobar
Let's instead use the syntax
--foobar
--foobar=yes
--foobar=no
Where the first two are equivalent. The boolean argument is parsed
following the usual rules.
Change all new negative switches this way.
This patch also properly aligns the --help table, so that single char
switches always get a column separate of the long switches.
If a name was passed in as function argument, trust it, and don't do utf-8
encoding for them. Callers are obliged to check the names themselves, and
escape them in case they use anything they got from the outside world.
This is what we have done so far for all other time values, and hence we
should do this here. This indicates the default unit of time values
specified here, if they don't contain a unit.
As memfds are now created by proper kernel API, and not by our functions, we
can't rely on names being escaped/unescaped according to our current logic.
Thus, the only safe way is to remove the escaping and when reading names,
just escape names that are not properly encoded in UTF-8.
Also, remove assert(name) lines from the memfd creation functions, as we
explictly allow name to be NULL.
Now, that the memfd stuff is not exported anymore, we can simplify a few
things:
Use assert() instead of assert_return(), since this is used internally
only, and we should be less permissive then.
No need to pass an allocated fd back by call-by-reference, we can just
directly return it.
