Please see the documentation (e.g. pydoc3 systemd.daemon) for full
description. As usual, systemd._daemon wraps the raw interface, while
systemd.daemon provides the more pythonic API. sd_listen_fds,
sd_booted, sd_is_fifo, sd_is_socket, sd_is_socket_unix,
sd_is_socket_inet, sd_is_mq, and SD_LISTEN_FDS_START are currently
wrapped.
The userspace firmware loader is deprecated now, and will be entirely
removed when we depend on a kernel version with the built-in firmware
loader available.
I originally added this to stay as compatible as possible with the kernel, but
as Lennart argued it is not really useful in the initramfs, so let's drop it (we
already don't support 'rootdealy').
We currently enforce that seats are to be named in the form of
"seatXXX", i.e. need to begin with the 4 characters "seat". Thus,
"seat-master" would qualify as a seat name. As seat names are frequently
used as tags on devices, the "seat-master" tag might hence confuse
logind if the user decides to name a seat "seat-master".
Hence, avoid any ambuigity: let's rename the "seat-master" tag to
"master-of-seat".
- fix typo
- use compiled systemd-nspawn
- drop --capability=... from systemd-nspawn invocation, is is the default now
- simplify sudo make invocations
- Don't allow any locks to be taken while we are in the process of
executing the specific operation, so that apps are not surprised if a
suspend/shutdown happens while they rely on their inhibitor.
- Get rid of the Resumed signal, it was a bad idea, and redundant due to
PrepareForSleep(false), see below.
- Always send out PrepareFor{Shutdown,Sleep} signals, instead of only if
a delay lock is taken.
- Move PrepareForSleep(false) after we come back from the suspend, so
that apps can use this as "Resumed" notification. This also has the
benefit that apps know when to take a new lock.
We should not pimp up the kernel's VC stuff, it's too linited and
fragile.
At the moment not even the font uploaded early during bootup does
survive the KMS driver taking over the framebuffer driver. We
surely don't want to make promises about colors or resolution.
The future is fullscreen KMS/kmscon/wayland/... based terminals using
X fonts, keymaps, input methods, and not the old school too limited
kernel VC stuff. So leave the kernel VCs as they are, and don't expect
wonders.
This way we also get a man page. The output is not as polished.
I hope that it doesn't matter too much.
index.html is not generated now, the page is called
systemd.index.html. If necessary, an install hook should be added.
Adds is-failed to join is-active and is-enabled.
I grabbed this one from the todo list. Most of the functionality was
already there for is-active. I just needed to make check_one_unit take
the states to check for as an argument instead of the hardcoded
"active" and "reloading".
is-failed will return 1 if none of the units given are failed. This is
different from is-active which will return 3 if none of the units
given are active. It returns 3 with this comment:
/* According to LSB: "program is not running" */
As that does not make sense when looking for failed units I simply
chose 1 instead.
