device_path_make_{major_minor|canonical) generate device node paths
given a mode_t and a dev_t. We have similar code all over the place,
let's unify this in one place. The former will generate a "/dev/char/"
or "/dev/block" path, and never go to disk. The latter then goes to disk
and resolves that path to the actual path of the device node.
device_path_parse_major_minor() reverses device_path_make_major_minor(),
also withozut going to disk.
We have similar code doing something like this at various places, let's
unify this in a single set of functions. This also allows us to teach
them special tricks, for example handling of the
/run/systemd/inaccessible/{blk|chr} device nodes, which we use for
masking device nodes, and which do not exist in /dev/char/* and
/dev/block/*
As it turns out glibc and the Linux kernel have different ideas about
the size of dev_t and how many bits exist for the major and the minor.
When validating major/minor numbers we should check against the kernel's
actual sizes, hence add macros for this.
These lines are generally out-of-date, incomplete and unnecessary. With
SPDX and git repository much more accurate and fine grained information
about licensing and authorship is available, hence let's drop the
per-file copyright notice. Of course, removing copyright lines of others
is problematic, hence this commit only removes my own lines and leaves
all others untouched. It might be nicer if sooner or later those could
go away too, making git the only and accurate source of authorship
information.
This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html
The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per
file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together.
Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this
information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to
copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to
change bits that are part of our copyright header for that.
hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a
bit.
Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
Let's add a common implementation for regular file checks, that are
careful to return the right error code (EISDIR/EISLNK/EBADFD) when we
are encountering a wrong file node.
Add a new option `--network-namespace-path` to systemd-nspawn to allow
users to specify an arbitrary network namespace, e.g. `/run/netns/foo`.
Then systemd-nspawn will open the netns file, pass the fd to
outer_child, and enter the namespace represented by the fd before
running inner_child.
```
$ sudo ip netns add foo
$ mount | grep /run/netns/foo
nsfs on /run/netns/foo type nsfs (rw)
...
$ sudo systemd-nspawn -D /srv/fc27 --network-namespace-path=/run/netns/foo \
/bin/readlink -f /proc/self/ns/net
/proc/1/ns/net:[4026532009]
```
Note that the option `--network-namespace-path=` cannot be used together
with other network-related options such as `--private-network` so that
the options do not conflict with each other.
